Unveiling trends in green HRM: A bibliometric analysis using R

Abstract

In order to fully understand Green HRM (GHRM), this study will use Scopus data to conduct a comprehensive bibliometric analysis. A total of 405 documents were initially identified, and after careful evaluation of relevance and quality criteria, 245 were chosen for final analysis. An in-depth analysis was conducted using the R package Bibliometrix to thoroughly examine publication trends, key research themes, influential authors, and collaboration networks within the GHRM literature. This valuable article examines the GHRM research environment, highlighting key advances and opportunities for additional study. Mapping the growth of GHRM research helps academics, practitioners, and policymakers integrate environmental sustainability into HR practices. The findings demonstrate the growing importance of GHRM in addressing global sustainability issues and the role of HR practices in attaining organisational sustainability.Ultimately, this bibliometric study deepens our comprehension of GHRM research's present status and advancement. This tool provides insights into the most influential publications, prolific authors, and critical field focus areas. The study also highlights the importance of conducting empirical studies in various contexts and exploring innovative GHRM practices for future research. This analysis helps researchers improve GHRM and supports efficient, environmentally friendly HRM practices.
