Abstract: The present study explores the relationship between organizational environmental identity and employees' green behavior in the workplace. The current study contributes to the field by examining this relationship, which has not been extensively researched. Consequently, the domain of environmental components in employee education has emerged as a particularly significant issue. The primary objective of this study is to explore proactive environmental aspects and their impact on employee engagement. The present study employed correspondence analysis, and the ensuing results were interpreted through the implementation of a chi-square test, wherein the chi-square value was juxtaposed with the critical value. In this test, degrees of freedom (df) play a pivotal role, as they are employed to ascertain the critical value of the chi-square distribution. This critical value serves as a benchmark against which the calculated Chi-square value from the test is evaluated. The critical values are contingent on the degrees of freedom and the designated significance level. In this study, a significant level of 0.05 was employed. Notably, there is no statistically significant difference between initial or regular green learning and employee engagement. Furthermore, our findings indicate a substantial discrepancy between the size of the organization and the impact of both initial and regular employee environmental training. The integration of environmental practices into the daily routines of employees has been identified as a key factor in reducing the environmental impacts of organizations. The present study contributes to the extant literature on human capital and environmental management.
