“…In addition Mezinska and Strode (2015), note that the relevant team should come up with the appropriate corporate green policy strategy by first establishing why they need to come up with plan. In this context, the particular corporate stakeholders should also work in creating a strong relationship and support between the senior management teams and the employees.…”

Green Human Resource Management (GHRM) is very critical in helping different organizations achieve environmental sustainability. This is a novel concept in relatively many organizations and especially those in the developing countries. Although more effort is required to help organizations in the implementation of the green policy, some of these organizations have already embraced the concept and have been utilizing it in some or all their Human Resource Management (HRM) practices. The main HRM practices generally include recruitment and selection, training and development, performance management and appraisal, compensation and reward, empowerment and participation, and the management of the organizational culture. This shows that HRM has a major role to play in helping turn their particular organizations green. This sets the basis of this paper, which utilizes the desk research but proposes further research in the area considering that it is still a green concept in the field of HRM. For the purpose of this paper, the terms businesses, companies, organizations, and firms will be used interchangeably.

“…Increasing proportion of environmental pollution and global warming has influenced organizations for the reduction of environmental pollution (Zutshi and Sohal, 2004). Moreover, Rio Declaration on Environment and Development Summit singed in 1992, which enforced organizations to reduce their environmental impacts and to focus on sustainable development, and to make, sustainable development an integral part of every country policy (Mezinska and Strode, 2015). Numerous authors have highlighted the importance of EM such as important tool for organizations to handle the environmental issues, improves corporate image and reduces waste (Campos et al , 2015; Quader et al , 2016; Zutshi and Sohal, 2004).…”

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to identify the critical success factors (CSFs) of integrated quality environmental management (IQEM) and analyze their impact on operational performance (OP) and environmental performance (EP) in food processing Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in Pakistan. Design/methodology/approach The study is based on collecting data using a survey questionnaire through snowball sampling technique. A total of 302 food processing SMEs operating in Punjab, Pakistan, responded to the survey. SPSS version-23 and SmartPLS-3 were used for data analysis. Findings The literature review identified leadership (LS), employee management (EM), strategic planning (SP), information management (IM), process management (PM), supplier management (SM) and customer focus (CF) as CSFs of IQEM. The results of this study found a significant relationship of all identified CSFs with operational performance in food processing SMEs whereas EM, IM, PM and SM were insignificant with the EP in the food processing SMEs. Research limitations/implications Although this study has collected data from one province, the Punjab province, it still relevant in identifying the CSFs for IQEM implementation within food processing SMEs to improve performance. Originality/value Despite the wide spread of integrated systems practices in the developed countries, little attention has been placed to implement and assess the IQEM initiatives by organizations in the developing countries. Thus, this study identified CSFs of IQEM based on empirical studies and analyzed their impact on OP and EP of food processing SMEs.

“…ISO 14001 has many potential benefits in addition to improving business performance but also can encourage the implementation of energy savings, waste reduction, low regulatory compliance costs and more efficient processes. Research conducted by Mezinska and Strode [10] in food sector companies find that the company successfully implemented EMSyst under ISO 14001 even though the environmental impact assessment of its production remains a challenging task due to the limited data available along the supply chain.…”

This study aims to analyze and evaluate whether increased awareness regarding environmental issues has encouraged organizations to apply environmental management systems and use environmental management accounting (EMA), which drive environmental innovation, and thus enhance the company's environmental performance. There is, however, little evidence to consubstantiate this claim and thus this paper aims to investigate the issue. PT X is one of the largest steel companies in Indonesia. This study highlights the importance of using EMA in implementing an environmental management system within the company. It shows that even though an environmental management system has been installed by the company to avoid any serious impacts of environmental pollution (e.g., in the form of iron dust), the company has yet to implement an EMA system with environmental management reporting (e.g., in the form of a cost-benefit analysis) to address problems. The company carried out its environmental management system to comply with the prevailing legislation and regulation, rather than as an environmental strategy and innovation for the future sustainability of the business.
