Abstract
This study aims to examine the influence of Green Human Resources Management (GHRM) and the work environment on employee job satisfaction at CV Pangan Berkah Sentosa, Jombang Regency. A quantitative explanatory design was employed to test causal relationships among variables. The population consisted of 348 employees, with 186 respondents selected using Slovin’s formula at a 5% margin of error. Data were collected through structured Likert-scale questionnaires and analyzed using multiple linear regression after passing validity, reliability, and classical assumption tests. The findings indicate that GHRM does not have a significant effect on job satisfaction. In contrast, the work environment demonstrates a positive and statistically significant influence. Simultaneously, both variables significantly affect job satisfaction; however, the model explains only 8.6% of the variance. These results suggest that in a high-production operational context, tangible workplace conditions play a more dominant role in shaping employee satisfaction than sustainability-oriented HR practices. The study highlights the importance of improving workplace conditions as a strategic approach to enhance employee satisfaction, while emphasizing that GHRM implementation should be more integrative to generate meaningful psychological and organizational impacts.
