Abstract

Environmental sustainability has become an ethical and strategic imperative for organizations, and more and more employees are interested, encouraged, or instructed to act in environmentally sustainable ways. Consequently, organizational scholars have increasingly studied individual-level antecedents of employee pro-environmental or employee green behavior (EGB). We argue that, to advance this literature and to inform effective interventions, research should investigate how EGB, as a compound performance domain, is associated with antecedents and consequences at multiple levels (i.e., individual, team, work context, organization, society). Accordingly, we pursue three interrelated goals with this review. We first present a comprehensive review of research on EGB, including definitions, theoretical frameworks, methodological approaches, and empirical findings. Second, we develop an integrative conceptual model of EGB as the core of organizational environmental sustainability. Third, we conclude with recommendations for future theory development and methodological improvements, as well as practical implications for employees, leaders, and human resource management. Expected final online publication date for the Annual Review of Organizational Psychology and Organizational Behavior, Volume 10 is January 2023.

员工绿色行为是环境可持续组织的核心
环境可持续性已经成为组织的道德和战略要求,越来越多的员工感兴趣,鼓励或指导以环境可持续的方式行事。因此,组织学者越来越多地研究员工亲环境或员工绿色行为(EGB)的个人层面的前因。我们认为,为了推进这一文献并为有效的干预提供信息,研究应该调查EGB作为一个复合绩效领域,如何在多个层面(即个人、团队、工作环境、组织、社会)与前因和后果相关联。因此,我们在本综述中追求三个相互关联的目标。我们首先对EGB的研究进行了全面的回顾,包括定义、理论框架、方法方法和实证研究结果。其次,我们建立了一个整合的概念模型,将环境绩效作为组织环境可持续性的核心。最后,我们提出了对未来理论发展和方法改进的建议,以及对员工、领导者和人力资源管理的实际意义。《组织心理学与组织行为学年度评论》第10卷预计最终在线出版日期为2023年1月。修订后的估计数请参阅http://www.annualreviews.org/page/journal/pubdates。
