Environmental sustainability has become increasingly important because of irreversible climate change, widespread environmental pollution, and dwindling resource availability over time. Organisations have recently come under more pressure due to increasing economic, political, and societal concerns to address environmental issues and improve their environmental performance. Recently, green human resource management (Green HRM), among other sustainable environmental strategies adopted by organisations, has gained popularity, yet little has been published on green HRM practices across the globe. This book develops our understanding and practice of green HRM across the globe, highlighting practices across different countries on different continents, with a particular focus on the Global South. The authors draw on various types of research (conceptual, theoretical and empirical) and incorporate contextual issues such as technology, politics, culture, and economics to supplement the readers’ insights into the current state of green HRM practices across the globe. By highlighting theoretical underpinnings and emphasising the practical relevance of green HRM practices, this book offers an insightful guide for scholars and students of HRM, as well as HR professionals looking for academic insights into this vitally important area.
