The impact of green recruitment on environmental and social sustainability: Empirical evidence in Vietnam

Tóm tắt

Green recruitment has been applied by many organizations around the world in selecting potential candidates suitable for recruitment positions and committing to long-term companionship with businesses, thereby contributing to building a national green workforce towards global green citizens. This study examines the effects of green recruitment on environmental and social sustainability in green business-oriented organisations in Vietnam. Research data were collected from 450 responses using survey questionnaires at 10 businesses in Vietnam. Through the linear regression analysis method on SPSS 22 statistical analysis software, the research results indicate that green recruitment affects environmental and social sustainability. Specifically, green recruitment has a positive impact on both environmental and social sustainability. This research is helpful in raising awareness among organisations to adopt green recruitment practices to benefit the organisation in all aspects. The research also provides policymakers with a better understanding of how to promote green recruitment practices and enhance
sustainability in organisations. Consequently, organisations should establish and develop green recruitment processes to promote environmental and social sustainability.
