Green human resource management (GHRM) in the environmental management of organizations has gradually become a key issue in academic circles, and its impact on employees’ green behavior has received increasing attention. However, few studies have explored its impact from the perspective of information delivery. Based on an analysis of the literature, this research discusses the influence route of five types of GHRM practices (employee life cycle, rewards, education and training, employee empowerment, and manager involvement) on employee green behavior in the workplace and the mediating effects of information needs based on the technology acceptance model. Using cross-sectional survey data from enterprises in the People’s Republic of China, the proposed theoretical model was tested and the results showed that employee life cycle, education and training, employee empowerment, and manager involvement all significantly affect the in-role and extra-role green behavior of employees positively, while rewards only significantly predict extra-role behaviors. Information need plays a mediating role on the influence route of the employee life cycle, education and training, and manager involvement on the green behavior of the employees in the workplace.
