A Scoping Review of Green Recruitment and Selection Studies in Developing Countries: Evidence from Existing Studies

Abstract


The primary responsibility of human resources is the implementation of green recruiting and selection practices. Ecological sustainability has become a prominent concern on the political agenda, and organizations in developing countries are increasingly seeking methods to combat climate change through strategies such as green recruitment and selection. However, limited information is available on the practices of green human resource management specifically related to these areas. This study will conduct a scoping review of green recruitment and selection practices in developing countries. The methodology involved a comprehensive search of relevant studies from reputable databases, including Scopus,  ABI/INFORM, and Science Direct, along with accessible online research platforms such as web of science  and ResearchGate, which have proven valuable resources. The findings indicate a significant understanding and positive perception of green recruitment and selection as effective strategies for promoting environmental sustainability in developing countries. However, it is recommended that further research be conducted across a broader range of countries to enhance insights into green recruitment and selection practices.
