PurposeThis research scrutinizes the connection between green human resources management (GHRM) and environmental performance (EP) through mediating role of green supply chain management (GSCM).Design/methodology/approachThe conceptual prototype developed in this research was originated from familiarized literature review on the connection between EP, GSCM and GHRM. Moreover, this research employed a quantitative approach through conducting interviews and questionnaires for statistics assortment from the following entities: chief executes, general managers, directors, human resource managers, logistics managers, operation managers and supply chain managers in the manufacturing sector in Pakistan. The partial least squares structural equation modelling (PLS-SEM) was considered for statistical exploration by accepting 269 useable responses.FindingsThe research asserts significant encouragement of GHRM and GSCM on EP. Moreover, GSCM arbitrates significantly between GHRM and EP.Research limitations/implicationsThis research recommends policies to manufacturing concerns that they should work to stabilize ecological sustainability by developing maximum GHRM and GSCM.Originality/valueThis research comes up with an innovative variables structure which has never been adopted before in the manufacturing area of Punjab in Pakistan.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of knowledge acquisition, application and its utilisation influences to enhance the institutional learning in Pakistan. As numerous Pakistani managers hesitant for the acquisition of technologybased knowledge management, its application and after that its utilization in their organizations (Saeed, Tayyab, Anis-Ul-Haque, Ahmad, & Chaudhry, 2010). In this quantitative study 418, close-ended structured questionnaires were distributed and 245 questionnaires were finalized for reliable primary data. The results of the current study showed that knowledge acquisition and utilization have a positive significant impact on institutional learning while knowledge application has a non-significant impact on institutional learning. In the light of results, it is being deduced that their need to devise strategies and methods so that, acquired knowledge could be applied in the institutions and could be utilised by the students and faculty members. In this way, new doors of knowledge would be open for institutional learning. Contribution/ Originality: This study contributes to existing literature by investigating the effect of knowledge acquisition, application and its utilisation influences to enhance the institutional learning in Pakistan. 1. INTRODUCTION Organizational evolution and competitiveness are considered to be affiliated with the knowledge management practices in the present world. Importance of knowledge management has been recognized in a developing country like Pakistan but there exist dearth of its practices in organizations (Pasha, 2012). Knowledge about the particular field of business prevails like an asset for any organization for its progress. Organizations in Pakistan are still in the early phase of understanding the knowledge management implications and a reasonable number of senior managers perceive knowledge management as an overstated management of information and business process re-engineering and they believe that business process re-engineering has to face failures do knowledge management will have the same fate. Knowledge is actually a powerful force which drives through the "economies of ideas. Basically, knowledge management implementation is complex in nature which causing failure of 84% of knowledge management ventures (BenMoussa, 2009). Such failure statistics has made hesitant the Pakistani managers to adopt technology-based knowledge management (Saeed et al., 2010). Knowledge management is ordered and explicit phenomenon linked
