Abstract: Vouching for a dire need for effective environmental management in organizations in the present sustainability‐driven age, this study aims to identify the significance of Green Human Resource Management (GHRM) practices as an effectual sustainability intervention. The study examines the association of GHRM with employee and organizational resilience. Grounded in a resource‐based view, the proposed hypotheses were tested using the data collected from 287 hospitality and tourism sector employees using an online crowdsourcing platform. Data was analyzed through the PLS‐based structural equation modeling using SmartPLS 4. The study's findings reveal that GHRM practices directly and/or indirectly influence organizational and employee resilience through proactive environmental management maturity and proactive environmental behaviors. We also found that moral reflectiveness significantly moderates the mediation effect of proactive environmental management maturity in the GHRM‐organizational resilience linkage. However, no such mediation or moderation effects could be empirically substantiated for the role of proactive environmental behavior. Our study reinforces the significant role of GHRM in enhancing the organization's and the employees' resilience. The study's findings provide several important implications for organizations aspiring to facilitate their resilience by pursuing a compelling mix of GHRM practices in the hospitality sector and beyond.
