Abstract: With the increasing concern of the international community on environmental issue, much attention has been paid to the study of how individuals contribute to environmental sustainability in organizational settings. The concept of employee green behavior arose and has become an important research topic in the field of organization management. In recent years, the research in the field of employee green behavior has developed rapidly. However, there is still a lack of consistent understanding on the conception, classification, theory and measurement of employee green behavior, and the research focus is relatively scattered. Therefore, it is necessary to build an integrated research framework to analyze and sort out the existing researches. In view of this, this paper first defines the concept and connotation of employee green behavior; Second, the theoretical basis of employee green behavior is analyzed from five perspectives: norm, motivation, exchange, attitude, and emotion. Then the measuring methods of employee green behavior are sorted out. Finally, based on the multi-level perspective, a research framework is constructed that integrates the antecedents, mediator, moderator, and outcomes of employee green behavior. Several research directions are proposed.

Key words: employee green behavior, taxonomy, theoretical perspective, measurement, empirical research
