In the field of green human resource management (GHRM), green practices and employee environmental commitment (EEC), there is a need to investigate these dynamics in diverse organizational contexts, such as the hospitality industry. Within hospitality industry, employee behavior is a major factor in determining environmental commitment. This study investigates the connection between GHRM practices and pro-environmental behavior (task-related and proactive pro-EB) among hospitality employees, aiming to enhance their environmental dedication. To conduct this study, we reached out to the HR managers of four hotels in India and collected
281 filled responses through a convenience sampling technique. Drawing on empirical evidence from India, the
study supports the abilities, motivation, and opportunities theory and the social exchange theory framework to
understand the GHRM mechanism with employee pro-EB and environmental commitment within the hospitality
industry. The developed hypotheses and conceptual model used the structural equation modeling technique to
test this mechanism. The study findings demonstrated that GHRM promotes pro-EB among hospitality industry
employees to improve environmental commitment. This study adopts a unique approach to GHRM by considering the influence of employees’ proactive and task-related pro-EB in enhancing their environmental commitment in the hospitality sector
