description Human Resource Management (HRM) helps develop an ecofriendly culture by molding employee behavior. However, numerous elements also play critical roles. The intent of this article was to inspect the influence of green HRM on workers' in-role and extra role ecofriendly behavior using the mediating effect of proecological climate and green empowerment. The regulating effect of environmental knowledge on workers' extra role behavior was also planned to investigate. To inspect the data, this study employed a two-stage approach of structural equation modeling (SEM). Purposive sampling was applied to collect data for the study, which included an empirically verified questionnaire. The discoveries from the study revealed that environmental knowledge doesn’t strengthen the affiliation between GHRM and employees’ extra role ecofriendly behavior. Besides, proecological climate and green engagement have an important role to shape employees’ ecofriendly activities. The results of the study can assist the industry-wide decision-making process. It will also open new ground to study other sectors.
