Abstract

This exploratory study contributes to the conceptual and empirical understanding about the nature of Green Human Resource Management (HRM) in multinational companies in Malaysia, an under researched area in the field.The required data for this study were collected using semi-structured interviews with head of HR in four multinational companies.The results revealed that most of the investigated companies place a very high importance on Green HRM reflecting on five concepts – Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), Electronic HRM (E-HRM), Work-life Balance (WLB), Green Policies and Extra Care Program.Towards the end of the interview, the informants realized that HR practices are classified as Green HRM.The approach of this investigation recognizes that ‘Green HRM’ is a new term in this field.
