This book examines the critical role of human resources (HR) in advancing sustainability within organisations. It articulates a compelling business case for integrating sustainability into HR practices and explores foundational theories and concepts at the intersection of HR and sustainability. Readers will acquire a deeper understanding of people management strategies designed to attract and retain talent committed to sustainability. The book addresses methods for acknowledging and rewarding employee contributions to sustainability, developing effective training programmes, and fostering employee engagement in sustainability initiatives. It also underscores the significance of an inclusive workplace culture and the role of technology in advancing sustainable HR practices. Furthermore, the book assesses the influence of cultural norms in shaping workplace sustainability efforts, demonstrating how sustainable HR practices contribute to broader organisational, societal, and environmental objectives. It therefore serves as an essential resource for researchers, academics, HR professionals, and students dedicated to promoting socially responsible workplace practices. It holds significant value for those aiming to integrate sustainability into HR strategies to enhance organisational performance and contribute to a sustainable future.
