Description
Summary:Green human resources management in the environmental management of organizations has a lack of understanding in academic circles in Malaysia and also its impact on the employees’ work life. Most of the studies were conducted outside of the Malaysian context. A study that investigates the perception of GHRM in the Malaysian context is still insufficient. Thus, the aim of this study was to explore the perceptions of public sector employees toward green human resources management in Kuching, Sarawak. Based on this analysis, this research will discuss 6 green practices which are green recruitment, green performance evaluation, green training and development, green health and safety management, green reward and compensation, and lastly, green employee relations. This study was carried out by using a qualitative research design in which the interviews were conducted in semi-structured interviews for data collection from 10 informants who were in the public sector. The findings show the perceptions of public sector employees toward green human resources management are quite limited as some of the employees do not really know about GHRM. The findings of the study also highlight that the implementation of the organization's ways to enhance their employees’ knowledge on GHRM are a paperless office, conservation of energy, and recycling. This study helps to provide more specific information on green human resources management or employee green behavior no matter if it is in the government or private sector.
