Tiivistelmä
Studying how organizations act or do not act sustainably both internally and externally is valuable and timely as climate change has begun to reveal its effects on our planet already (e.g., Finnish Government, n.d.). This study focuses on Finnish organizations as the Finnish government has an ambitious climate plan for the coming decades (Finnish Government, n.d.).
By incorporating green values and initiatives into their HRM practices, it has been demonstrated that organizations could reach their environmental goals more quickly (e.g., Shen, Dumont & Deng, 2018: 595; Chen, Jiang, Li, & Gao 2021:2).
From this study, one may learn more about how Finnish organizations consider environmental sustainability in their HR work. One may also gain a deeper insight into how well-acquainted Finnish HR professionals are with Green HRM, or whether this HR approach is still undiscovered within the Finnish HR field. The second goal of this study was to learn about the opinions and thoughts of Finnish HR professionals about the responsibility that organizations have regarding fighting climate change, and the role the HR professionals consider that HR should have regarding this.
