GREEN HUMAN RESOURCE MANAGEMENT, TRANSFORMATIONAL LEADERSHIP AND EMPLOYEE BEHAVIOURAL OUTCOMES OF MTN NIGERIA PLC, LAGOS STATE, NIGERIA

In practice, green human resource management has positively impacted the environment. Considering the rise in the complexity of issues relating to economic, social, and environmental scenarios that depict performance in the workplace, the practice of transformational leadership is very critical. This research investigated the moderating effects of transformational leadership on green HRM and employee behavioural outcomes. The study was carried out in MTN Nigeria Communications PLC. This study adopted a descriptive research design. A total of 348 copies of questionnaire were administered; however, only 300 were returned. The returned questionnaire constitutes 86.2% of the sample studied and is considered an acceptable percentage for this study. The dataset for the study was analysed and presented using SPSS (Statistical Packages for Social Sciences) and SEM-PLS (Structural Equation Model) to test hypotheses. The results suggested from tested hypotheses that, green recruitment has a significant effect on employee commitment, green training has a significant effect on employee productivity, green performance appraisal has a significant effect on employee loyalty, green compensation has a significant effect on employee satisfaction and transformational leadership does not moderate the relationship between green human resource management and employee behavioural outcomes but transformational leadership has a direct relationship with employee behavioural outcomes. It can be concluded that transformational leadership does not moderate the relationship between green HRM and employees’ behavioural outcomes. The research recommended that the need to develop sustainable strategies to promote a transformational leadership style should consistently be encouraged in the organisation, supervisors should be willing to take risks with their team, provide necessary emotional support to their subordinates in getting work done, encourage employees to come up with innovative ways of doing things, give personal attention to individual employees, establish a supportive climate where individual differences are respected and also assign tasks and duties according to the knowledge and capabilities of the employees
