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. |
