Abstract: Organizational citizenship behavior for the environment (OCBE) has become increasingly important in response to the harmful activities of some manufacturing firms in Ghana. Drawing on the Ability, Motivation, and Opportunity (AMO) framework, this study explores the influence of Green Human Resource Management (HRM) practices on OCBE, with a focus on the mediating role of employee engagement and the moderating effect of employee personality traits. Data were collected from 234 respondents using a structured questionnaire, and partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS‐SEM) was used for analysis. The findings reveal that Green HRM practices have a positive impact on OCBE, with green recruitment and selection exerting the most significant influence. Additionally, green training and development positively affect employee engagement, which in turn mediates the relationship between green recruitment and selection, green training and development, and OCBE. Moreover, employee personality traits moderate these relationships, positively influencing the link between green recruitment and selection and employee engagement.
