Abstract
The research results confirmed the important role of green recruitment and adaptation
in green human resource management (GHRM). The survey’s purpose was to evaluate the spread
of green recruitment and staff adaptation practices in Ukraine. The theoretical model of green
practices implementation in the processes of recruitment and staff adaptation is developed. The
survey found that less than a third of organizations position themselves as green employers and
develop green employer value propositions (EVPs) which are attractive to people with green
behaviours. The practice of assessing and selecting candidates with green competencies has not
become widespread. The lack of practice of including green competencies in the requirements
and job advertisements does not allow the company to attract desirable candidates, including
specialists with environmental knowledge and attitudes, despite such intentions. The study
results also showed that more organizations use green practices during the onboarding and
adaptation of new employees compared to recruitment and selection. The survey results
confirmed the hypothesis that green recruitment and adaptation aren’t widespread in Ukrainian
companies. Owners and managers need to pay more attention to introducing green issues in the
recruitment and adaptation processes; study successful practices and adapt them to the specifics
of the organization; develop green competencies in HR managers and specialists; to position
themselves as a green employer.
