Abstract

All over the world, there has been a significant concern among business leaders to adopt green strategies to reinforce sustainable practices and increase employee's commitment to the issue of environmental sustainability. As a result, the modern HR managers have been assigned with the responsibility of incorporating the green HR policies in the organizations along with the responsibility of playing a vital role in implementing the overall environmental strategy of the organizations. As a result, HR managers are in the search of various tools and technologies which will help them implement the environmental strategies and sustainability. This paper aims at suggesting some cost-effective tools and techniques for HR managers in implementing green HRM and sustainability. Through an extensive review of the literature on green HRM practices and collecting primary data using observational and experimental techniques, this paper proposes the tools and techniques which can be used in any organization without any major change in the existing infrastructure. Besides, various benefits of implementing green HRM, both monetary and non-monetary benefits, have been pointed out. Finally, the paper suggests some pragmatic initiatives for HR managers for going green in HR function and making the organization green as a whole.
