Abstract
In the present era, developing green human resource management (HRM) practices, green culture (GC), and operational performance (OP) have become significant challenges for various organizations, including the health sector. The current paper explores the role of green HRM in enhancing OP and GC. The study also confirms the mediating position of GC between green HRM and OP. The quantitative analysis collected 296 cross-sectional cases from employees in the Egyptian health sector. The researchers applied an online survey questionnaire to reach out to the respondents. Using SmartPLS 4 software, the study exerts a positive influence of green HRM on GC and OP. Besides, the impact of GC on OP is positive. Finally, the GC factor mediates the association between green HRM and OP. The study results support the development of policies for promoting green HRM practices to enhance the OP. The study also keeps bringing conducive GC and eco-friendly behaviour where individuals would positively consider preserving the environment through green HRM and conducive environmental performance (EP).
