Abstract

Bibliyometrik analiz literatürün belirli kavramlar özelinde derinlemesine irdelenmesini imkân sağlar. Bu araştırmada yeşil insan kaynakları yönetimi (YİKY) ve çevresel performans kavramlarını ele alan araştırmaların literatür incelemesini bibliyometrik analiz yöntemiyle açıklanması hedeflenmiştir. YİKY insan kaynakları yönetiminin yeşil odaklı ele alınmasına işaret eder. Çevresel performans ise organizasyonların çevreyi dikkate alarak eylemlerini yürütme başarısı olarak açıklanır. Bu araştırmada bibliyometrik analizin performans analizi ve bilim haritalama yöntemleri kullanılmıştır. Hedef literatür YİKY ve çevresel performans kavramlarının yer aldığı Scopus veri tabanıdır. Araştırmada Açık Erişim olan araştırmalara yer verilmiştir. Bibliyometrik analiz bulgularına göre 2015-2023 yılları arasında kırk beş yayına ve iki bin iki yüz yirmi dört atıf rastlanmıştır. Bu alanda on sekiz ülkenin en çok katkı sağlayan ülkeler olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Ülkelerin ortak yazar sayıları tespit edilmiş ve en çok Çin ve Pakistan ortak yazarların bu kavramlar üzerinde araştırma yaptığı gözlemlenmiştir. Ayrıca bu alana en çok katkı sağlayan üniversiteler ve veri tabanları belirlenmiştir. Elde edilen bulgulara dayalı çıkarımlar yapılarak YİKY ve çevresel performans trendleri açıklanmıştır. Araştırma sonucunda mevcut durum ortaya koyulmuş ve gelecek araştırmalar için öneriler sunulmuştur.

A BIBLIOMETRIC ANALYSIS ON GREEN HUMAN RESOURCE MANAGEMENT AND ENVIRONMENTAL PERFORMANCE

Abstract

The ability to thoroughly investigate the literature pertaining to particular themes is made possible by bibliometric analysis. The goal of this study is to use bibliometric analysis to explain the literature review of research on the topics of green human resource management (GHMR) and environmental performance. GHRM stands for a human resource management strategy that emphasizes sustainability. Environmental performance is defined as how successfully firms carry out their operations while taking the environment into account. Performance analysis and scientific mapping bibliometric analysis techniques were applied in this research. The target literature is the Scopus database, which includes the concepts of GHRM and environmental performance. In the study, Open Access studies were included. According to the bibliometric analysis findings, forty-five publications and two thousand two hundred twenty-four citations were found between the years 2015-2023. It has been determined that eighteen countries are the most contributing countries in this field. The number of co-authorships of the countries was determined and it was observed that China and Pakistan co-authors mostly conducted research on these concepts. In addition, universities and databases that contributed the most to this field were determined. GHRM and environmental performance trends are explained by making inferences based on the findings. As a result of the research, the current situation was revealed and suggestions were presented for future research.
