ÇALIŞANLARIN YEŞİL DAVRANIŞININ KAVRAMSAL ÇERÇEVEDE İNCELENMESİ

Öz

Hofmann, Griffin ve Gavin ile Kozlowski ve Klein (2000) tarafından yaygınlaştırılmış olan çalışanların yeşil davranışı kavramı örgüt içerisinde çalışanlar tarafından sergilenen çevre yanlısı ve örgütün çevresel sürdürülebilirliğine katkı sağlayan bireysel davranışlar olarak tanımlanmaktadır. Çalışanların yeşil davranışı yabancı literatürde güncel bir konu olarak göze çarpmakta ve gün geçtikte bu konuyla ilgili olarak yapılan çalışmaların sayısı artmaktadır. Türkçe literatürde ise yeşil davranış kavramı farklı yönleriyle ele alınsa da çalışan yeşil davranışı konusunu kavramsal açıdan ele alan bir çalışma göze çarpmamaktadır. Bu çalışmanın amacı yabancı literatürde “Employee Green Behaviour” olarak geçen “Çalışanların Yeşil Davranışı” ile ilgili kavramsal bir çerçeve oluşturularak bu yeni kavramın Türkçe literatüre kazandırılmasını sağlanmaktır.
