How can green training promote employee career growth?
Increasingly stringent environmental regulations have prompted firms to go green. In this context, employees are being urged to engage in green training to update their skills and improve their abilities pertaining to green practices. Using a dual-stage moderated mediation model, this study analyzed whether, how, and when green training contributes to the promotion of employees’ career growth. The results demonstrated that green training is positively related to employee career growth. The findings also showed that employee performance mediates the relationship between green training and career growth. Furthermore, this study provided support for the negative moderating role of hindrance stressors on the indirect effect of green training on career growth through employee performance; conversely, self-efficacy was shown to amplify the indirect effect of green training on career growth via employee performance. Overall, this work extends our understanding of green training in the context of transitional economies by demonstrating that green training can help employees accelerate their career growth.
