Green Human Resource Management: Trends in Sustainable and Agile Human Resources Research in SMEs
Abstract: Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) collectively have a significant environmental impact, despite each individual SME having a relatively small footprint. To mitigate this impact, the implementation of green human resource management practices is crucial for effective workforce management within SMEs. However, SMEs face challenges in executing these strategies and ensuring long-term business continuity. This study aims to establish a theoretical framework for a business model that can assist SMEs in …
