Abstract:
The subject of green human resource management in banks' environmental commitment
of employee, employee eco - friendly behaviour remains relatively underexplored.
Moreover, most studies ignore the mediating effect of how to improve environmental
commitment of employee, employee eco - friendly behaviour and banks' organizational
environmental performance through green human resource management practices. Hence,
this study aims to examine the relationships among those variables and the mediating
effect of those variables in the Banks.
In order to achieve the study objectives, primary data were collected from in selected
banks and a set of questionnaire was issued among the 300 banks employees in Batticaloa
region. Among these 300, researcher has received 294 questionnaires. The simple
mediation analysis was used to test the research model. Findings of the study revealed
that, there are positive and significant relationships exist among the study variables.
Moreover, empirical finding of the study indicated environmental commitment of
employee, employee eco - friendly behaviour partially mediates the relationship between
green human resource management practices and organizational environmental
performance of the banks. The empirical finding of the study contradicted with what was
hypothesized in the study. Hence, further empirical studies should be carried out to test
and prove the mediating role of environmental commitment of employee, employee eco
friendly behaviour of employees.
