Abstract: This research investigates the impact of Green Human Resource Management (GHRM) practices namely green recruitment and selection, green training and green pay and reward on green employee behavior in Pakistan SME manufacturing firms. The mediating effect of green work engagement, i.e; employees' passion and commitment to green work tasks, is the center of attraction. Data were gathered from 102 workers with a standardized questionnaire. Findings indicate that although awareness about green practices is present, it is not being implemented. But when GHRM practices are properly implemented, they have a great impact on employee engagement and encourage green behavior. The research indicates that formal green HR strategies are crucial to improve environmental performance and motivation.
