Book Description

Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) face a pressing challenge in balancing organizational competitiveness with environmental responsibility. As organizations increasingly adopt Green Human Resource Management (GHRM) practices to enhance sustainability, HEIs must align their human resource strategies with ecological goals. However, the lack of comprehensive guidance and resources tailored to HEIs hinders their ability to integrate GHRM effectively. Green HRM Awareness and Training in Higher Education Institutions solves this challenge. This book offers a detailed roadmap for HEIs implementing GHRM practices and fostering pro-environmental behaviors among staff and students. By equipping HR professionals and organizational leaders with strategies to integrate sustainability into HR processes, this book enables HEIs to enhance their environmental performance while maintaining competitiveness.

Book Description

This major collection examines both the human resource dimensions of environmental management and how environmental management impacts on human resource departments. Contributions from international experts in both academia and business look at current theory and best practice in environmental TQM, education, training and communications. Greening People argues that, if a company is to adopt an environmentally-aware approach to its activities, the employees are the key to success or failure. Realistically, it is only through the energy, performance and personal commitment of each employee within an organization that business will move towards sustainable industrial development. This book provides an important angle on the new complexities faced by environmental managers and human resource professionals and offers practical solutions drawn from some of the leading lights in the corporate environmental revolution. Greening People is divided into four parts. Part 1 demonstrates the relationship between human resource management and environmental management. Part 2 provides insight into the psychological make-up of contemporary staff that may foster or hinder company-wide implementation of environmental measures, and Part 3 addresses the shortcomings of current management training programmes and suggests new approaches for effective implementation of environmental human resource management. Finally, a selection of excellent case studies demonstrates how the concepts are being implemented in companies and local authorities.
