description The purpose of this study is to examine the influence of green human resource management (GHRM) on employees’ green behavior (EGB) in hotels in Vietnam. To fulfill social responsibility towards the environment, many organizations have been paying more attention to GHRM, thereby forming EGB. Especially in today's situation where global warming is increasing, “green” practices should be adopted by organizations, starting from the core of organizations—their human resources. The success of an organization's initiative to sustain environmental sustainability largely depends on promoting green behavior among employees. The study used a mixed method, incorporating qualitative feedback from previous studies, experts, and quantitative data from 556 employees working in hotels in Vietnam. Filtering was performed on the data to remove outliers and demonstrate statistical, confirmatory factor analysis, and structural equation modeling. The results show that GHRM activities such as green recruitment, green training and development, green job performance management and appraisal, and providing green compensation strongly influence EGB. Additionally, the study also indicates that EGB varies based on work experience and the type of hotel where they are employed. Hotels operating in the tourism industry have been paying more attention to GHRM, thereby forming EGB. In the tourism industry, hotels must ensure environmental protection goals more than ever. Developers and managers can utilize more development tactics to enhance GHRM and EGB.
