The employee awareness of green human resource management practices and environmental cooperation in Bangladesh

Business communities have recently been increasing awareness of the significance of going green and adopting various environmental management techniques. As the corporate world is going global, the business is experiencing a shift from a conventional financial structure to a modern capacity-based economy ready to explore green economic facets of the company. Today, Green Human Resource Management (GHRM) has become a key business strategy for significant organizations where Human Resource Departments play an active part in going green at the office. The principle of this study is to examine the extent of awareness of Green Human Resource Management among different levels of HR Managers from various organizations in Bangladesh. The findings of this study provide essential existing information on Green HRM though the practice of Green HRM in Bangladesh is insignificant. The results reveal that Green HRM knowledge depends on various factors. The study's practical implications identified the awareness level of Green HRM among Managers from different sectors in Bangladesh. Organizations should employ requisite Green HRM practices to achieve excellent organizational performance. Furthermore, the government may generate policies to endorse the above practices since, in the long term, accomplishing organizational excellence will reflect positively on the economy. All these may be facilitated through proactive corporate and national human resource development initiatives. The significance of the present study stems from the fact that very few studies have explored the awareness level of employees in the Green human resource management field in Bangladesh. The results provide insights into HRM practices in Bangladesh, an Indian subcontinent country. A region that has been neglected by management researchers and has therefore been less researched. Also, the insights gained from this study contribute to the future development of this line of research, particularly in a non-Western country like Bangladesh. Finally, the paper recommends some hypothetically fruitful HR initiatives for Green organizations
