Abstract | The changing workplace dynamics bring to the fore the need for organisations to embrace the act of responsible management. In this context, responsible management entails being more empathetic to employees’ welfare, as well as showing greater concern and accountability to their social/societal and environmental needs. This qualitative study aimed to investigate if social sustainability and green HRM can help promote work-life balance among academics in Nigerian higher education institutions (HEIs). Several studies have been conducted in the West, while there is a paucity of research on work-life balance, social sustainability and green HRM in the global South, specifically Nigeria. Thus, the study’s objectives include critically examining the notions of work-life balance (WLB), social sustainability, and green HRM among the academics in Nigerian higher education institutions (HEIs); and investigating if and how social sustainability and green HRM practices can promote or hinder WLB in Nigerian HEIs. To achieve these objectives, qualitative research was conducted using semi-structured in-depth interviews with fifty-seven academics across different higher education institutions in Nigeria. |
