Abstract

Although accumulated evidence has shown that Green human resource management (HRM) has crucial effects on employees' environmental behavior, there is limited research on the underlying mechanisms of the link. Drawing on social information processing theory, we develop and test a multilevel model that specifies how and when Green HRM has benefits for employees’ environmental behavior. Based on a sample of hotels collected from three data sources, we show that Green HRM is positively related to work group green advocacy, which in turn is positively related to employees’ environmental behavior. Moreover, managers’ interpretations of environmental issues strengthen the effects of work group green advocacy on employees’ environmental behavior. We discuss the theoretical and practical implications of these findings and propose future research directions.
