Abstract
The main objective of the study is to examine the effect of Green Human Resource Management (GHRM) on employee green behaviors (EGB) (transforming, conserving, influencing others, taking initiatives, and avoiding behaviors) in the case of Hawassa University staff. Using a straightforward random sampling method, 252 sample responses were selected from the target population of 680 academic staff members. A descriptive and explanatory research design was employed in the study, and a questionnaire was used to gather data. Structural equation modeling was used to examine the effect of GHRM on EGB. Confirmatory factor analysis was used to test a predefined factor structure and assess the reliability and validity of the model. The study result shows GHRM has a statistically significant positive effect on conserving and influencing the behavior of other employees. On the other hand, GHRM has a negative and significant effect on avoiding harm and has no statistically significant effect on transforming and taking initiatives in categories of EGB. This study contributes to the body of knowledge in two ways. First, this study examines the role of GHRM on green employees' behavior by taking Hawassa University staff as a case study, which hasn't been conducted so far by other researchers. Secondly, the research examines the effect of GHRM on EGB by assessing employee behavior from various perspectives based on the green five taxonomy of EGB, which has not been sufficiently employed by prior studies. Besides the study, add green employee relations as an additional factor in GHRM, which was overlooked by most studies.
