Keywords:
sustainability, public perception, sustainable HRM, environmental issues, transparent human resource practicesAbstract
In this paper we explore sustainability-based ideology from both organizational and individual-level perspectives. Organizations may show they care, through sustainable HRM strategies, and encourage ideological currency exchange in order to recruit and retain quality employees, increase organizational commitment, increase citizenship behaviors, strengthen identity, increase job satisfaction, and maintain a positive public perception and reputation.
