The impact of human resource factors on employee attitudes and environmental performance in a sample of Malaysian ISO 14001 EMS certified companies

Despite the considerable existing body of academic literature, increasing employee motivation for environmental endeavors continues to be poorly understood. Recently Govindarajulu and Daily (2004) presented a comprehensive theoretical framework for environmental performance by looking at the crucial employer and employee factors affecting environmental performance. The authors identified management commitment, employee empowerment, feedback and review, and rewards as key human resource (HR) factors in increasing employee motivation for enhanced environmental performance. However, no published studies to date have empirically validated the framework. Therefore, one purpose of this dissertation is to address this void. Additionally, job satisfaction and organizational commitment were proposed as mediators in the relationship between the HR factors and environmental performance.
