ROLE OF GHRMPS AND RELIGIOSITY IN DETERMINING THE EQUILIBRIUM BETWEEN ENVIRONMENTAL-SUSTAINABILITY AND SUBJECTIVE WELLBEING THROUGH PRO-ENVIRONMENTAL BEHAVIORS: A CROSS-DOMAIN MODEL FOR PAKISTANI CORPORATE SECTOR

Abstract

Guided by the AMO theory, VBN theory, and warm-glow-giving theory, the theoretical glue that joint the proposed model together this study investigates how employing Green HRM practices and Eco-Islamic Phenomenon (i.e. religiosity) corporate sector can achieve an equilibrium between Environmental-sustainability (ES) and Subjective Wellbeing (SWB), through the centrality of pro-environmental behaviors (PEBs). An in-depth review of strategically selected qualitative/empirical/conceptual articles from the Scopus and Web of Science databases on the multi-disciplined subjects (i.e., GHRMPs, Religiosity, PEBs, ES, and SWB) published from 1978 to 2022 has been executed. A review of the literature derived 12 hypotheses combining cross-domain consolidated model for the corporate-sector of Pakistan, comprehending ‘how’ equilibrium between SWB and ES could be actualized. Distinctive from previous studies, the proposed model brings a new horizon to explore the untried associations of cross domains PEBs (i.e., workplace, public & private sphere) with GHRMPs, Religiosity, ES, and SWB to provide a comprehensive understanding of the underlying behavioral process bridging GHRMPs and Religiosity with ES and LS, respectively. This study offers contextual support to the literature where studies connecting sustainability and subjective well-being (SWB) are lacking especially in developing countries context.
