Abstract

This study aims to investigate the impact of GHRM practices on long-term performance in the manufacturing sector of Gujranwala, Pakistan, with the mediating role of GSCM practices.
Design/methodology/approach: Four dimensions (i.e., Green hiring, Green training, Green performance management, and Green reward and compensation) were used to operationalize the Independent Variable Green HRM Practices. The mediating variable GSCM was further divided into Internal GSCM and External GSCM, whereas performance sustainability was measured through environmental, social, and economic performance. To procure the statistical outcomes, data was collected through a questionnaire (self-administered), CFAs, and SEM analysis were then carried out using SPSS and AMOS.
The study's results illustrated that Green HRM practices significantly influence organizations' performance. Moreover, the full mediating effect of GSCM was also validated in the association of GHRM and sustainable performance. This study will bridge the gap between SCM theories and HRM by providing a comprehensive analysis of the connectivity of these practices for accomplishing sustainability goals.
Moreover, the study can assist manufacturing organizations in achieving sustainability by adopting Green HRM practices and GSCM. Furthermore, the noise level for green corporate culture can also balloon up in developing countries like Pakistan. In this model, the researcher studied GHRM practices, GSCM practices, and SP in the future. This model can be extended further by considering other dimensions of on-hand variables and by altering the sector. To accelerate innovative culture outcomes, the recommendations of this study can be applied to the overall manufacturing sector of developing countries.
Previously published literature and studies have explored the linkage among GHRM practices and long-term performance in various countries and sectors. However, in ongoing exploration, the authors added several dimensions of GSCM practices as a mediating factor that hasn't been tested in any developing country previously.
