Abstract

       Environmental sustainability is essential in society and organizations to reduce natural disasters, climate change, and the depletion of natural resources, as workplaces around the world are a major source of carbon emissions. Many companies and organizations have implemented sustainability strategy measures to promote pro-environmental behaviors at work. However, they often represent a challenge because many employees' daily behaviors are based on habits and routines that are difficult to change. Hence, we find that sustainable employee behaviors play a major role in developing a sustainable green building environment.
This study reviews an evaluation of three sustainable green buildings that have obtained the LEED Gold Certificate for Sustainable Buildings. This study also reviews employee behaviors in the work environment, as applying behavior change strategies to sustainable behavior in these environments has the potential to achieve significant savings from natural resources. It is wise to develop employees' skills and environmental behavior. To achieve sustainable human behavior in the workplace to achieve sustainable green buildings.
