Establishing the Nexus between Green Human Resource Management and Construction Project Environmental Performance

Green resource management has been recognized as a strategy to enhance performance across industries. This study empirically examines the relationship between Green Human Resource Management (GHRM) and environmental performance in Ghana's construction industry. Using a quantitative approach, data was collected via a comprehensive literature review and structured questionnaires. Of the 125 questionnaires distributed to construction professionals using purposive sampling, 97 were retrieved, yielding a 77.6% response rate. Data analysis was conducted using SEM-Partial Least Square (SEM-PLS).The analysis identified green induction as the most significant latent variable, followed by green recruitment and green human resource planning. Environmentally friendly construction methods were the most agreed-upon measure for environmental performance. The study found a statistically significant positive relationship between GHRM practices and project environmental performance. It suggests implementing GHRM practices, like green recruitment and induction, through policies to enhance organizational performance. This study contributes to the understanding of GHRM's impact on the environmental performance of construction projects and provides a foundation for future research to improve human resource management.
