SUMMARY:Shuang Ren, “Green Human Resource Management: Does It Matter....and How?
”
DESCRIPTION:\nWith the growing awareness of how economic development is
contributing to environmental degradation and climate change\, concerns
about long-term sustainability are raising new ethical issues for organi
zations and their members\, as well as for society as a whole. Against t
his backdrop\, green (environmentally-focused) human resource management
(GHRM) has been increasingly promoted over the past decade as a proacti
ve response that organizations can take to enhance environmental perform
ance. Underlying the emergence of GHRM is an assumption that it can addr
ess a firm’s specific challenge of managing environmental concerns throu
gh a set of HRM practices that explicitly consider the firm’s environmen
tal goals. However prior studies have focused primarily on either descri
ptive exploration of the existence of HRM practices that target environm
ental issues or the influence of a limited set of these HRM practices. S
everal theoretical and practical issues remain under-specified\, includi
ng whether and how GHRM influences a firm’s performance (including envir
onmental performance and financial performance). Research on GHRM introd
uces new ideas and issues that are only beginning to be studied by HRM s
cholars as they realize the strategic importance of environmental manage
ment for building sustainable organizations. Shuang outlined the develop
ment of the GHRM field with reference to her recent review paper on GHRM
\, and shared three of her projects that unfold the underlying mechanism
s and boundary conditions of GHRM for firms’ performance and employees’
green behavior.\n\nShuang Ren is a senior lecturer at Deakin Business Sc
hool\, Deakin University. She obtained her doctoral degree in human reso
urce management at the University of Melbourne (2010–2013) and worked as
a post-doctoral research fellow at the Centre for Ethical Leadership at
the University of Melbourne prior to joining Deakin. Shuang’s research
areas include strategic human resource management\, human resource devel
opment (particularly leader development) and business leadership in Chin
a. She is a recipient of Australian and New Zealand Academy of Managemen
t Early Career Researcher Award in 2015 and Faculty Researcher Award in
2017.\n\nFor more details: https://events.la.psu.edu/event/green-human-r
