“…Green behaviour is behaviour that causes an employee to work sustainably, conserve resources, discourage others from engaging in environmental degradation, initiate action to protect the environment and rescind environmental deterioration (Ones and Dilchert, 2012). Norton et al (2015) categorised green behaviour into two categories, viz., required green behaviour and voluntary green behaviour.…”

PurposeThis study conceptualises the construct – green competencies. The concept is in the niche stage and needs further elaboration. Hence, to address the research gap, this study follows the steps proposed by Tranfield et al. (2003). The major part of the study comprises descriptive analysis and thematic analysis. Descriptive analysis of the selected 66 articles was examined with the classification framework, which contains year-wise distribution, journal-wise distribution, the focus of the concept, the economic sector, and dimensions of sustainable development. The paper conducts a thematic analysis of the following research questions. What are the green competencies and their conceptual definition? What are their dimensions?Design/methodology/approachThis paper applies a systematic literature review of green competencies literature, extends the state-of-the-art using the natural resource-based view, and discusses future research directions for academicians and practitioners.FindingsIn recent years, there was considerable interest in green competencies (GC), as reflected in the surge of articles published in this genre. This paper asserts that green competencies are a multidimensional construct comprised of green knowledge, green skills, green abilities, green attitudes, green behaviours, and green awareness.Originality/valueDespite the significance of green competencies, there has been a dearth of study to define the constructs and identify the dimensions. Hence, this study addresses the literature gap by conceptualisation and discusses dimensions of the construct.

“…As it is essentially acknowledged now that employees perform an essential role for achieving the corporate greening by performing a wide range of pro‐environmental behaviors (Lülfs & Hahn, 2013). Nowadays, organizations worry more about the natural environment than they did in the past (Dumont, Shen, & Deng, 2017; Ones & Dilchert, 2012). According to Aguinis and Glavas (2012)), companies all over the world are endeavoring to support environmental responsibility because of the increasing concerns about the long‐term opposing effects caused by changing climate and environmental degradation.…”

This article explores the influence of corporate social responsibility (CSR) and three green triggers of environment (awareness, concern, and knowledge) on employee well‐being and green behavior. The study engages the stimulus–organism–response model for testing the association between CSR and well‐being of employees that leads to employee green behavior. Furthermore, social exchange theory has been utilized to describe the association between well‐being and green behavior of employees. Data have been gathered through questionnaire from 509 employees working in guest‐service hotels of Pakistan. Structural equation modeling has been used to test the hypotheses. Findings show that CSR, environmental concern, and knowledge have positive effect on employee well‐being, whereas environmental awareness has positive but insignificant effect on employee well‐being. Furthermore, environmental concern, knowledge, and well‐being have a positive influence on green behavior, whereas CSR and environmental knowledge have a positive but insignificant effect. Moreover, well‐being fully mediates the relationship between CSR and green behavior and between environmental awareness and green behavior of employees. However, a partial mediation was observed between environmental concern and green behavior. The findings also indicate that no mediation was found between environmental knowledge and employee green behavior. The findings suggest that the hotel managers should invest to improve employee's awareness regarding green behavior by conducting environmental training for cultivating environmental knowledge and awareness. Moreover, CSR activities should be performed for attaining competitive edge and maintaining a balance between progress and sustainability of environment.

“…Irrefutably, various theories have propounded and established that organisations are the leading contributors to ecological debasement (Craig, 1996; Stern, 2000; Kwong, 2005). In spite of its colossal importance, the greater part of the research work in envisaging and influencing behaviour has been taken up either on private sphere or else in society as general, and employees’ workplace has largely been neglected (Ones and Dilchert, 2012; Blok et al , 2015; Aziz et al , 2017; Ture and Ganesh, 2018; Mukherjee and Chandra, 2018). Against this backdrop, the study aims to corroborate the significant preconditions for inducing concern and disentangle the prevailing conflicting impact of anticipated guilt and pride on eco-friendly judgement making by integrating the effects of values (altruistic, biospheric and egoistic) and anticipated feeling of pride and guilt on an employee's attitude and concern in the workplace.…”

PurposeIn response to scholarly calls, the study aims to extend and magnify the existing understanding by unravelling the differential impact of anticipated emotions on green practice adoption intention through a proposed model by integrating anticipated pride and guilt in the same continuum along with values (altruistic, biospheric and egoistic) on an employee's attitude.Design/methodology/approachA self-administered questionnaire was used to collect data randomly from 307 employees and middle-level executives of three subsidiaries of CIL through the simple random sampling (SRS) technique. Data were analysed using structural equation modelling (SEM).FindingsResults demonstrate that anticipated guilt influences individual cognitions and future ecological decision-making through improved attitude and higher concern for the environment while pride influences only through improved attitude. Other than biospheric and altruistic values, anticipated guilt is a direct and important antecedent of concern. Altruistic values are more influential predictors of environmental intentions in comparison to biospheric values. At the same time, environmental concern is more robust in predicting eco-intentions than attitude.Originality/valueIt makes notable difference from other studies by not only exploring the validity of the relationship between values on attitude and environmental concern but has also considered anticipated emotions of pride and guilt together alongside values on the same continuum as an antecedent of environmental attitude and concern towards employees’ green behavioural intention at the workplace. The findings are believed to provide a common consensus on differential effects of different states of emotions on environmental concern and attitude.
