A Review of Literature Studies on Employee Green Behavior

Abstract

In light of escalating environmental degradation and growing emphasis on sustainability from both governmental policies and consumer expectations, enterprises are increasingly adopting environmental protection measures and sustainable development strategies. Central to the effectiveness of these initiatives are the enterprise employees, whose green behaviors are pivotal in actualizing organizational environmental goals. This paper critically reviews existing literature to define the concept of employees' green behavior and explore the multi-level factors influencing it. By synthesizing research findings, the study aims to clarify the role of employee behavior in the success of corporate environmental policies and identifies gaps for future research. This review not only elucidates the conceptual framework of green behavior within the corporate context but also highlights the importance of fostering an environmentally conscious workforce as a key component of sustainable business practices.
