Globally, corporate world is adopting the various environment management techniques; there has been an increasing awareness within the business communities about the significance of going green. There is a drastic shift from the conventional financial structure to the modern capacity-based economy which the pharma business is experiencing, and is ready to explore the green economic facets of business. Today, Green Human Resource Management (GHRM) has become a significant key business strategy for the pharma company, where Human Resource (HR) departments play a major part in going green in the offices. The research paper largely focuses upon the various Green Human Resource Practices being pursued by the Pharma Company and, would explain the simplified meaning of GHRM. The research study would also add to the extant literature by discussing future direction of some GHRM functions. Finally, the paper has suggested some potentially prolific HR initiatives for the green pharma company. Consider that the HRM would contribute to environmental management in the Pharma Company if they (a) recruit and select people committed to the environment; (b) train and evaluate the employees’ performance based on the environmental criteria; (c) implement ways of rewarding an individual and collective environmental performance; (d) stimulate continuous education in the environmental management; (e) treat the environmental aspects as values of a corporate culture; and (f) promote an interaction between the teams in order to deal with the environmental problems and strive for continuous improvement of the environmental management activities.
