Abstract
The global need to solve escalating environmental challenges brings increased focus on organizations and their impact on environmental performance. The significance of green human resources management (GHRM) is increasingly recognized as aligning organizational objectives with environmental sustainability goals, fostering eco-friendly workplace practices and enhancing corporate social responsibility. GHRM and its contribution to environmental performance has received growing attention from scholars, however, a need to systematically review and synthesize the literature in this area remains. This research offers a comprehensive overview of green human resources management and environmental performance literature highlighting the major themes in the current developments along with the new trends and patterns for future research observed in this field. For conducting a systematic literature review and bibliometric analysis, a total of 227 documents were extracted from the Scopus database. Following the PRISMA 2020 Protocol, 144 published articles from 2014 to 2024 were included for final analysis. Performance analysis and science mapping (citation, co-citation, bibliographical coupling, and keyword co-occurrence analysis) were performed to examine how knowledge has been constructed, disseminated, and shaped over time. VOSviewer software was used to systematically investigate, map, and visualize the bibliometric results as the main trends. The study reveals the current status in GHRM and performance management publications and citations, identifying key contributors such as influential countries, journals, and authors and outlines keywords, and thematic areas. Lastly, this study identifies research gaps and emerging trends such as green transformational leadership, green innovation, green behaviour, environmental values, green intellectual capital, environmental economics in GHRM, offering valuable insights for scholars and practitioners seeking to advance understanding and implementation of green HR practices.
