Abstract:
The study examined the relationship between green worklife balance and employee
commitment of healthcare firms in Ethiope East Local Government Area Delta state, Nigeria.
The study employed green flexible work arrangement, green workplace initiatives and green
human resource management as measures of green worklife balance. The study sourced for data
using primary means via questionnaires distributed to selected respondents. The study was
anchored on social exchange theory and the data sourced were analyzed using descriptive and
inferential statistics. Findings revealed that that green workplace initiatives, green flexible work
arrangements, and green human resource management (GHRM) practices significantly influence
employee commitment in healthcare firms in Nigeria. Green flexible work arrangements were
shown to enhance work-life balance, reducing stress and improving loyalty, while green
workplace initiatives fostered alignment between employee values and organizational goals,
boosting dedication. GHRM practices, such as sustainable recruitment and training, further
reinforced employee commitment by creating a culture of environmental consciousness.
