Summary: | Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to validate the corporate environmental citizenship measurement originally developed by Banerjee (2002) in the Malaysian setting. Design/methodology/approach: A systematic sampling technique was used, with a total of 251 responses. The measurement was tested using content validity, convergent validity and discriminant validity. Findings: The study finds that all four dimensions are highly suited for measuring corporate environmental citizenship in the construction companies in Malaysia. Research limitations/implications: The study uses a single respondent to report on the organization’s corporate environmental citizenship. The perceptions among the respondents may differ. Practical implications: Organizations can use the measurement for benchmarking current levels of organizations’ environmental degradation as well as identify which business areas are in need to improve environmental preservation. Social implications: This study theoretically conceptualized corporate environmental citizenship as a multidimensional construct containing four dimensions. Originality/value: This study contributes to the body of knowledge by validating corporate environmental citizenship measurement in the Malaysian context as measurement validation studies are scarcely found. |
