<p>This review paper creates strong analytical and theoretical frameworks for green human resource management (GHRM) literature. As green HRM is an emerging field of study it requires strong analytical and theoretical frameworks to underpin the valuable knowledge obtained by the scholars through systematic research works in this field. A review of the literature shows that strong analytical and theoretical frameworks for green HRM has yet to be emerged. Accordingly, the objective of this paper is to fill this knowledge gap considerably. This paper organizes the existing literature on the bases of ‘Analytical HRM Framework’ of Boxall, Purcell, &amp; Wright (2007) and other relevant organisational theories. Ultimately this paper establishes a strong link between existing literature in green HRM and organizational theories.</p>

We examined the relationships between green human resource management practices, organizational identification, and green citizenship behaviors in the hotel industry. Our framework comprised 5 dimensions of green human resource management practices: green recruitment, green training, green performance management, green reward, and green involvement. We predicted that each dimension would positively influence frontline employees' organizational identification, and, in turn, their green organizational citizenship behaviors of eco-initiatives, eco-civic engagement, and eco-helping. Participants were 426 frontline employees working in Taiwanese hotels. Consistent with our predictions, each of the 5 green human resource management practices had a positive influence on organizational identification, which then positively affected green organizational citizenship behavior. Moreover, green human resource management practices enhanced employees' green organizational citizenship behavior, and organizational identification was an effective mediator of the relationship between green human resource management practices and green organizational citizenship behavior. Practical and theoretical implications of the findings are discussed.
