Abstract In recent days sustainability development becomes an urgent demand for both public and private organizations which arises the need for GHRM to adopt green practices. This study investigates the impact of applying green human resource management (GHRM) green recruitment, green training, green rewards and green performance (independent variable) on sustainability development (dependent variable) with mediating role of technology used in six Egyptian private banks. A single cross section descriptive research design has been applied; First, an in-depth interviews were conducted with both public and private Egyptian banks managers and employees, then the researcher excluded the public banks because they indicate that GHRM is not applied except for high level managers. Second, the researcher used close ended questionnaires to collect data from 316 employees working in six biggest private banks that apply sustainability in Egypt. The data was analyzed by using structural model, confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) to test the validity of the model, and structural equation modeling to test the studied research hypotheses. The results indicate that green recruitment, green training and green performance have positive and significant impact on sustainability development; However, green rewards show negative and non significant impact on sustainability development. In addition, the findings revealed that technology used is a mediator between all the variables (except green rewards) and sustainability development. The results are useful for HRM to develop the green policies within the organization. The findings of the research suggested very important implications and recommendations for the Egyptian public and private banks that if applied in a correct way, it will be a leading sector for all other sectors in Egypt to put their first steps toward sustainability. Future researches can be conducted on other practices of HRM and on other Egyptian sectors to indicate their impact on sustainability development. |
