Abstract

Green Supply Chain Management (GSCM) and Green Human Resource Management (GHRM) are two important branches of Operation Management and Human Resource Management in the field of environmental protection and sustainable development. The GSCM and GHRM were studied in isolation from each other in many years until the theoretical frameworks for their relevance were introduced. However, as a new research field, the empirical research under its theoretical framework is rather limited as there is little research in Chinese background. Thus, this study integrated and reviewed existing research on the relationship between GSCM and GHRM, summarized the gaps in the previous research and pave the way for the empirical research will be carried out in China.
