Exploring the influence of organizational practices and values on green environmental behavior in the health sector

What is it about?

Many hospitals seek to reduce their environmental impact, but it’s unclear what motivates employees to adopt environmentally friendly work habits.

We find that healthcare managers can design better strategies to support sustainability by aligning practices with employees’ environmental values.
