Green intellectual capital, sustainability, green human resource managementAbstract
Managing sustainability is one of the complex tasks and significant challenges companies face. Therefore, companies must organize their human resources to gain green objectives to achieve proactive sustainability. On the other hand, investing in knowledge is critical, as knowledge management will strengthen the firm’s intellectual capital. Additionally, the literature gap revealed that empirical researches associating green IC are still less than the need from growing economies, including Indonesia. This conceptual paper incorporates well-thought-on sustainability in Indonesian oil and gas companies, analysis of green intellectual capital, and mediated by green human resource management. Finally, the practical implications of this research offer a new literature review and model to assist the top management of oil and gas companies in Indonesia. It intends to understand what factors may affect both directly and indirectly and develop and improve green human resource management practices in oil and gas companies in Indonesia.
