“…The last theoretical contribution of the current study is the extension of environmental psychology literature through the introduction of employee environmental consciousness in our model, in order to explore its role as a moderating mechanism on the effect of CSR on pro‐environmental behaviour. This study provides empirical evidence that high‐level environmental consciousness strengthens the effect of CSR perceptions on pro‐environmental behaviour, which is consistent with the views of past scholars (Huang et al, ; Kang, Stein, Heo, & Lee, ). It provides a valuable reminder of the importance of integrating environmental consciousness into models explaining pro‐environmental behaviours of employees.…”

Corporate social responsibility (CSR) is a useful tool for effective organizational, social, and environmental functioning. This study expanded CSR and green research streams by examining the positive effect of employee's perceived CSR on pro‐environmental behaviour through mediation of organizational identification, as well as the moderation mechanisms of corporate entrepreneurship and employees' environmental consciousness for such an effect. The study drew on a survey sample of 479 employees and 122 department managers from various hotels in Pakistan. Key findings showed that CSR had both a direct and an indirect influence, through organizational identification, on pro‐environmental behaviour. The results lent support for the interactive effect of corporate entrepreneurship and environmental consciousness with CSR in predicting pro‐environmental behaviours. This is the first study of its kind to study a comprehensive model linking perceived CSR with employee's pro‐environmental behaviours in hotel industry through intervening variables.

This finding is in line with the studies that indicate that individuals' sensitiveness to the natural environment is changing with age, as they engage with nature, seek to avoid environmental harm, and are more interested in conserving natural resources [36,37].…”

This paper investigates the motives, behavior, and characteristics shaping mutual fund managers' willingness to incorporate Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) issues into investment decision making. Using survey evidence from fund managers from five different countries, we demonstrate that this predisposition is the stronger, the shorter their average forecasting horizon and the higher their level of reliance on business risk in portfolio management is. We also find that the propensity to incorporate ESG factors is positively related to an increasing level of risk aversion, an increasing importance of salary change and senior management approval/disapproval as motivating factors as well as length of professional experience in current fund and increasing significance of assessment by superiors in remuneration. Overall, our evidence suggests that ESG diligence among fund managers serves mainly as a method for mitigating risk and is typically motivated by herding; it is much less important as a tool for additional value creation. The prevalent use of ESG criteria in mitigating risk is in contrast with traditional approach, but it is in line with behavioral finance theory. Additionally, our results also show a strong difference in the length of the forecasting horizon between continental European and Anglo-Saxon fund managers.

“…Many firms are concerned with the effectiveness of adopting green management tools and green marketing strategies (Huang et al 2014;Papaspyropoulos et al 2012). The environmental management tools may be an important step towards sustainability and the preservation of environmental values, however marketing could be the key -through information and communication technologies -in publicizing and spreading these ideas thus forming customers', stakeholders' attitude in this respect.…”
