Abstract

Abstract: Employee eco-initiatives can contribute to organizational green sustainability. Nonetheless, mechanisms underlying employee green creativity have not been fully understood. Our study aims to investigate if perceived green human resource management (HRM) practices can foster green creativity among employees via dual mediation paths of green crafting and harmonious environmental passion. A two-wave survey process was conducted to garner responses from 712 employees and 106 managers from tour operators operating in Vietnam. Results revealed the mediating roles of green crafting and harmonious environmental passion for the linkage between perceived green HRM practices and employee green creativity. Perceived environmentally-specific authentic leadership was unpacked as a moderator for the impacts of perceived green HRM practices on green crafting and harmonious environmental passion. By identifying these mediating and moderating effects, our inquiry advances the stream of research on the HRM-creativity linkage in the green management domain.
