In the face of accelerating environmental degradation and climate change, businesses worldwide are under increasing pressure to adopt sustainable practices and contribute to global efforts in mitigating environmental damage. As governments and international bodies enforce stricter environmental regulations, companies must adapt by integrating green governance into their organizational frameworks. Green Human Resource Management (Green HRM) has emerged as a crucial tool in driving this shift towards sustainability, as it not only fosters a culture of environmental responsibility but also equips employees with the skills and motivation necessary to engage in eco-friendly practices. In light of these changes, understanding how Green HRM can enhance corporate environmental strategies is essential for businesses seeking to balance profitability with sustainability. In this context, this study evaluates the role of Green HRM in enhancing green dynamic capabilities and promoting innovative green behaviors among employees. Data were collected through an online survey between August and November 2023 from 410 employees across various sectors in China and analyzed using SPSS 22.0 and AMOS 24.0. The findings confirm that Green HRM significantly influences corporate green dynamic capabilities and employees' green innovative behaviors. Notably, green dynamic capabilities mediate between Green HRM and green innovative behaviors, underscoring the importance of green HR practices in fostering workplace eco-innovation. The study offers significant theoretical contributions by expanding the understanding of how Green HRM strengthens dynamic capabilities, enabling organizations to adapt and innovate in environmentally sustainable ways. From a practical standpoint, it provides actionable insights for companies to integrate Green HRM into their strategic frameworks to drive eco-innovation, engage employees in green initiatives, and achieve long-term sustainability goals. This research also contributes to the broader discourse on the interplay between HR management and environmental stewardship, highlighting the critical role of HRM strategies in promoting sustainable business practices and addressing the global environmental challenges that companies face today.

소개
본 연구소의 설립을 통해 우선 한중 양국 국민의 상호이해와 교류증진을 위한 인문, 사회과학적인 연구는 물론이고, 이를 통해 기업(인)이 중국에 안정적인 정착과 교류를 할 수 있는 각종 환경을 조성하고자 한다.
게다가 본 연구소는 기존의 연구소의 기능과는 달리 단순한 학술 교류에 머물지 않고 인적 교류를 통해 양국관계의 이해를 증진하고 나아가 한국과 중국의 각종 프로젝트를 적극 유치, 개발함으로써 지속적으로 재원의 창출을 도모하고자 한다.
