Abstract
This article analyses whether benefits arising for human resource management from environmental management activities drive
environmental management system implementation. Focusing on employee satisfaction and recruitment/retention, it tests this
for German manufacturing firms in 2001 and 2006 and incorporates a rare longitudinal element into the analysis. It confirms
positive associations of the benefit levels for both variables with environmental management system implementation on a large
scale. Also it provides evidence that increasing levels of environmental management system implementation result from higher
economic benefits in the human resource domain. In doing so the article supplies needed quantitative evidence on important
aspects of how sustainability relates to human resource management.
