Abstract

This study explores the link between sustainable HRM, workplace spirituality (WS), and employee behaviors, namely, organizational citizenship behavior for the environment (OCBE) and proactive behavior (PB). Utilizing a double source data collection method, this research incorporates the perspectives of both managers and employees. A sample of 314 dyads was analyzed. Structural equation modeling was employed to test the proposed hypotheses. It was found that sustainable HRM positively influences WS and OCBE. However, no significant direct impact was identified on PB. WS acts as a full mediator in this relationship. These results also show a strong association between WS and OCBE. This study underscores the crucial role of sustainable HRM in fostering WS and promoting OCBE while raising important questions about PB in a sustainability context. These insights contribute to understanding how organizations can use sustainable HRM to enhance employee responsible behaviors and create a workplace that supports employees' spiritual well‐being.
