Abstract

In recent decades, sustainability and environmental concerns have become increasingly significant topics of discussion. This article aims to propose a conceptual framework of a research model including the correlations between government regulations and legislations, Green Human Resource Management (GHRM), Green Supply Chain Management (GSCM), and Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The methodological approach adopted in this study included conducting a review of the relevant literature and accessing databases and search engines to gather information. The current article presents a novel approach to understanding how organizations and regulators can collaborate to drive sustainable development in this domain. This study also adds significant value due to its unique contribution in connecting GHRM, GSCM, and government regulation and legislation, particularly in the context of sustainable development and its link to promoting decent work and economic growth (SDG8), responsible consumption and production (SDG12), and addressing climate action (SDG13). The rarity of articles addressing these interrelated topics, especially within the specific context of Jordan, where such research has been largely absent, underscores the distinctive nature of this study. Furthermore, this article stands out for its comprehensive incorporation of legal and regulatory aspects into the discourse on organizational GHRM and GSCM practices and their alignment with the pursuit of SDGs. By providing valuable insights for decision makers and organizations, including a thorough examination of the barriers involved, this article serves as an essential resource for understanding and navigating the complex interplay between environmental sustainability, GHRM, GSCM, and governmental regulations. Based on the analysis of the findings, a conceptual framework is proposed based on three environmental dimensions and six green practices that have discernible effects. Finally, it is envisaged that this study will offer directions for future research work to use another approach and another environment.
