The goal of this study is to promote the use of green human resource management (HRM) in Indonesia, as previous research has shown that it can enhance both business profitability and possibly quality of life. Organizations compete with one another to hire, acquire, and retain the best personnel as a result of new businesses joining the market. The study aims to examine the relationship between pro-environmental behavior among employees and green human resource management (HRM) practices in Indonesia, focusing on the mediating function of job satisfaction. Employee information from Indonesia’s public and private sectors was gathered via a questionnaire. SEM, or structural equation modeling, was used to evaluate research hypotheses. The study emphasizes the value of green HRM practices in encouraging environmentally conscious behavior among staff members. Organizations can foster sustainable behavior and a culture of environmental responsibility by integrating employees into sustainability projects, conducting environmental training, and coordinating HRM practices with ecological goals. This enables companies to retain competent and competitive workers, which is crucial now.
