Abstract

As environmental degradation and hazards caused by the information technology (IT) industry reach critical levels, promoting pro-environmental behaviors within IT firms is crucial. These behaviors not only reduce operational costs but also enhance employee productivity. The primary objective of this study is to assess the roles of consideration of future consequences (CFC), nature relatedness (NR), and organizational commitment (OC) as determinants of employee green behavior (EGB). Results revealed a significant relationship between CFC and EGB. Specifically, CFC-Future has a significant positive relationship with EGB, whereas CFC-Immediate has a significant negative correlation with EGB. Additionally, the relationship between EGB and NR is significant and positive. A significant positive correlation is also observed between EGB and OC. Furthermore, regression analysis of the psychological variables revealed that these factors collectively explain 29% of the variance in EGB, with contributions from CFC-Future, NR-6, and continuance OC.

Abstract

Understanding the psychological and relational factors that influence strike propensity among unionized employees is crucial for effective labor management. This study examined whether personality traits, employee-employer relationships, and organizational trust influence strike propensity among labor union members affiliated with different political parties (INTUC, BMS, and CITU) in Kerala, India. This study uses a quantitative method, with a cross-sectional survey and was conducted with 505 unionized employees. Strike propensity was significantly positively correlated with extraversion, openness to experience, agreeableness, and co-worker relationships. Significant negative correlations were observed with conscientiousness, neuroticism, employee-supervisor relationships, and employee-organization relationships. Younger adults demonstrated significantly higher strike propensity, compared to middle-aged adults. Multiple regression analysis revealed that openness to experience, extraversion, and supervisor relationships collectively explained 26% of the variance in employee strike propensity (R² = 0.26). Personality traits and workplace relationships significantly influence strike propensity among unionized employees. This study concluded that organizations can potentially reduce strike likelihood by focusing on supervisor-employee relationships and considering personality factors in labor management strategies.
