Abstract

This paper concentrate on underlying strategies for improving environmental sustainability, creating awareness among human resource managers and employees about Green Human Resource Management (GHRM), the green movement, and the use of natural resources to help organizations foster sustainable growth and safeguard the health and safety of both staff and customers. The current COVID-19 pandemic has significantly altered how people operate, and employees execute their organization roles. Through Green Human Resource Management strategies in the current COVID-19 pandemic, organizations can balance the economic, social, and environmental goals of organizations directly contributing to improving global recovery from the pandemic. Information, results, and discussion in this study are based on literature reviews obtained through online publications. This study shows that the functions and practices of GHRM positively impact environmental sustainability. During the COVID-19 pandemic, employers are putting immense efforts towards achieving the level of employee’s health and wellbeing. Nonetheless, the study found that GHRM remains relatively new in organizations due to the lack of documented evidence supporting its functions and practices. The study recommends that public organizations implement robust policies and strategies that integrate GHRM into their strategic plans along with adequate management-employee involvement and commitment.
