Studying green climate nexus with green work engagement: how are environmental sustainability and personality traits important?

The purpose of this research was to investigate the complex relationship between workers' green job involvement and factors such as environmental sustainability, personality characteristics, the green climate, environmental views, and values. Survey data from a representative cross-section of workers at a variety of companies were analyzed using structural equation modeling in this study. According to the findings, there is a positive link between environmental sustainability, environmental attitudes and values, and green work engagement (GWE). The research also suggests that participating in green practices at work is a key component of environmental sustainability. It acts as an impetus for green projects, sustainable practices, and the development of a sustainability culture in businesses. In light of the difficulties posed by the green climate nexus, the study highlights the critical need of green work participation in achieving sustainable development objectives. Positive links between character qualities and eco-friendly workplace behavior were also uncovered. As a mediator between environmental sustainability and GWE, a green climate was also uncovered. These results suggest that policies aiming at encouraging green job engagement among workers may succeed if they promote environmental views and values, take personality qualities into account in the hiring process, and encourage a green atmosphere in the workplace. By elucidating the many factors that play a role in shaping eco-friendly workplace practices, this study contributes to our growing body of knowledge on environmental responsibility in the business world. The findings of this research have broad implications for businesses that are committed to fostering a culture of sustainability and environmental responsibility.
