Abstract: This study was conducted with an objective to understand the role of green human resource management (GHRM) in fostering environmental performance of employee. Specifically, it examines the impact of GHRM practices on employee green performance behaviors (task related and voluntary) with organizational identification as a mediator and employee personal environmental values and gender as moderators. Three hundred one employee from automobile sector in India participated in the study. Using cross‐sectional research design, the proposed research model was tested with the help of hierarchical regression analysis. GHRM was found to significantly predict both task‐related and voluntary employee green behaviors. Organizational identification significantly mediated the effect, whereas gender and environmental values failed to moderate the relationship between GHRM and employee green behaviors. The study signifies the role of HRM in achieving environmental sustainability and emphasizes on the urgent need to embed sustainability dimension into HR systems to achieve sustainable development goals.
