Year: 2024
Type: article
Study design: Observational Study
Abstract: As the environmental degradation and hazards caused by Information Technology (IT) industry is reaching its peak, promoting pro-environmental behaviours in IT firms is crucial. Pro-environmental behaviours not only reduce the operational costs, but also enhance the productivity of the employees in their organisation. The primary objective of the study was to assess the role of Consideration of Future Consequences, Nature Relatedness and Organisational Commitment as determinants of Employee Green Behaviour. The results revealed that there is a significant relationship between Consideration of Future Consequences (CFC) and Employee Green Behaviour. CFC-Future has a significant positive relationship with EGB and CFC-Immediate has a significant negative correlation with EGB. The relationship between EGB and Nature Relatedness is significant and positive. A significant and positive correlation exist between EGB and Organisational Commitment. Furthermore, regression results of the psychological variables revealed that the percentage of variance in EGB is 29% (i.e., explained collectively by CFC-Future, NR-6 and Continuance OC).
