“…A positive effect of ECSRs on positive and proactive behavior (i.e., OCB) has been examined and found (Hur et al, 2019). Others found that perceived organizational environmental efforts positively impact OCB (Lu et al, 2022). The internal mechanism between ECSR and OCB has attracted scholars' attention and exploration.…”

This study examines the comparative effects of internal and external CSR perceptions on organizational citizenship behavior (OCB) and focuses on two consequences to compare CSR perception types. It also attempts to develop logical linkages between CSR perceptions and OCB through individual-level psychological mechanisms, perceived external prestige, and affective commitment. The study is centered around the Chinese manufacturing and service industries using an online data-collection platform similar to Qualtrics. The structural equation modeling technique was based on 200 supervisor/subordinate dyads. The quantitative analysis utilized SPSS and AMOS software. Results demonstrate that internal CSR perception has more benefits for OCB than external CSR perception. Since internal CSR inputs are often neglected by companies, results provide scholars and managers with a new view to pay attention to the potential of internal CSR inputs.

Although it is an increasingly popular assumption that green human resource management (GHRM) can improve employee green behaviors, little empirical evidence has studied the link between different types (in-role and extra-role) of green behavior and how GHRM may have an impact beyond its original environmental domain. To bridge the research gap, this study develops and tests two serial mediation models of GHRM based on warm glow theory. Specifically, we propose that GHRM -as an organization management measure-will first increase employee in-role green behavior (IRGB). Then, due to employees’ perception and cognitive appraisal of organization’s GHRM policy and prosocial ‘Halo effect’ of green behavior, employees feel that they are doing the ‘right thing’, thus feel warm glow (WG) psychologically. The positive emotional experience accumulated by warm glow allows employees to obtain intrinsic rewards, resulting in green behaviors that are beyond their core task responsibilities and that can increase employee value and psychological consistency with organization. Drawing upon 301 data collected from Prolific, results support two significant serial mediation models. First, GHRM increased extra-role green behavior (ERGB) through in-role green behavior and warm glow. Second, GHRM increased person-organization fit through in-role green behavior and warm glow. Therefore, warm glow creates a spillover effect at the employee behavioral level and at the personal value level. This study contributes to existing literature by explaining how GHRM affects extra-role green behavior from a new perspective. By establishing a link between GHRM and non-green outcomes, we also expands the scope of GHRM research.

Based on the social contract theory and social exchange theories, this study examined the Corporations’ social responsibility (CSR) gaps perceived by fashion firms’ internal (i.e., employees) and external (i.e., consumers) stakeholders. In addition, to more deeply understand employees’ perspectives, this study empirically measured the CSR performance gap between employees’ expectations for the CSR standards the industry should achieve and employees’ perceptions of their employers’ CSR performance. This study then explored how the extent of negative incongruence (i.e., when the employer’s CSR performance does not meet the employee’s CSR standards) influenced employees’ attitudes and behaviors with the moderating role of the employees’ work experience. For this, we selected two global fashion firms: H&M and Nike. Through an online survey, 865 usable responses were collected (H&M retail employee n = 158, consumer n = 275; Nike retail employee n = 157, consumers n = 275). One-way Analysis of Variance and a post hoc test showed that the consumer groups for H&M and Nike indicated significantly lower levels of CSR perceptions than those of the employees of each brand. Moreover, the results of structural equation modeling revealed that negative incongruence between the expected industry standard and perceptions of the firm's performance in the area of CSR discouraged organizational commitment, which in turn decreased organizational citizenship behavior and increased turnover intentions. The moderating effect of work experiencewas not found. The originality of this study is that it quantitatively examined both internal and external stakeholders’ CSR perceptions and employees’ CSR perception gaps. The findings provide valuable academic and managerial implications.
