Abstract

Environmental degradation and depletion of natural resources has created havoc to the nature. Human beings exploited the environment for their personal motives. The destruction created to the environment is irrevocable. But still, protecting it from further damage is very essential for the survival of human and other species on Earth. Exploitation of the nature is beyond the endurance now. People have gradually realised the relevance of the nature and it’s retaliation against senseless exploitation. Now it is the time to pay off for what humans have done. Human greed through Industrial exploitation results in plundering of the natural resources and creating awareness among employees to engage in green behaviour can mitigate the environmental problem. Employee engagement is crucial for retaining productive employees in an organization and there are different types of it. Employee Green Behaviour (EGB) is the pro environmental behaviour that the employees engage in. This is one of the several methods in which environment could be protected. The research method used in the present EGB analysis is exploratory in nature. This paper explores the significance of employee green behaviour which plays a major role in protecting the environment. Also, it analyses the benefits of green behaviour for the employees as well as the environment.

Keywords: Industrial exploitation, Human greed, Environmental degradation, Employee engagement, Environmental awareness and Employee Green Behaviour
