Description & Coverage
Description:

The pressing need for environmental preservation has never been more evident, placing companies at the forefront of the sustainability movement. As the global community grapples with the ever-escalating environmental crisis, the imperative to preserve our planet has transitioned from an ethical consideration to a business necessity. Companies now face an unprecedented challenge: not only must they adapt to more sustainable practices, but must also fully embrace them across all aspects of their operations, including at the employee level. At the heart of this transformative journey lies human resource management, a pivotal lever for shaping a sustainable and environmentally responsible future for organizations.

Building Sustainable Human Resources Management Practices for Businesses is a tool for academic scholars and discerning readers who seek to understand and address this urgent issue. This book goes beyond exploration, offering a deeply insightful examination of human resource management's role in fostering sustainability within organizations. By weaving the principles of sustainability with the intricacies of talent management, the book provides readers with the essential insights, practical tools, and real-world examples necessary to navigate the path toward a more eco-conscious approach to HR. From eco-friendly hiring practices to the cultivation of a green organizational culture, each chapter delivers actionable guidance and inspires change. Simultaneously, it delves into the challenges and future prospects of green HR management, exploring how technology, diversity and inclusion, and collaboration with key stakeholders can usher in a greener, more sustainable economy.

In a world teetering on the edge of environmental uncertainty, Building Sustainable Human Resources Management Practices for Businesses is an indispensable guide for academic scholars, leaders, and human resource professionals. It sheds light on the critical issue of integrating sustainability into human resource management and sets the stage for a more sustainable and environmentally conscious organizational landscape. The urgency of our times demands that organizations, academicians, and policymakers unite in their quest for a greener future, and this book serves as the bridge connecting academia, business, and the environment to achieve that shared vision.
