“…Employee involvement and participation generically describes a range of practices known by different labels, including employee ‘voice’, ‘empowerment’ or ‘engagement’. Each of these concepts has slightly different, often contested, meanings across a range of disciplines (Budd et al ., ; Markey and Townsend, ; Wilkinson et al ., ). Central to the notion of EIP is some kind of involvement by employees in organisational decision‐making, but the degree and nature of such ‘involvement’ may vary considerably.…”

Based on a survey of 682 Australian organisations, we find that employee participation influences organisations' behaviours to reduce carbon emissions. Representative forms of participation and mechanisms dedicated specifically to environmental management are particularly important. Utilisation of a range of forms of participation is also associated with a broader suite of emission reduction activities.
