This study investigates the impact of green human resource management (GHRM) practices on organizational resilience (OR) and organizational sustainability (ORS) in Pakistan’s banking sector, with a focus on the mediating and moderating roles of resilience and organizational learning (ORL), respectively. Utilizing a cross-sectional, quantitative research design and data analyzed through Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM), the findings confirm that core GHRM practices, including green recruitment, training, compensation, performance appraisal, and employee involvement, significantly enhancing organizational adaptability and pro-environmental behavior. OR is shown to strongly contribute to ORS, underscoring resilience as a foundational element for sustainable performance. Additionally, ORL amplifies GHRM’s positive impact on OR, revealing that a culture of learning further strengthens the resilience benefits of GHRM. This study enriches the GHRM and sustainability literature by elucidating the synergistic roles of resilience and learning in fostering sustainability, and offers practical insights for HR managers aiming to integrate GHRM into strategic frameworks. The findings emphasize the critical role of green HR practices in bolstering resilience and adapting to environmental challenges in emerging markets.

This study is the first to scientifically investigate stock indices and currency exchanges that affect crypto price volatility pre and post the FTX (Future Exchanges) collapse event. Weekly series from 1 January 2020 to 31 December 2024 were utilized for the analysis. The ARDL model suggests positive symmetric short- and long-term effects of USA stock indices on Bitcoin and Ethereum prices (p < 0.10), while Japanese stock indices and currency exchanges have negative symmetric short- and long-term effects on Bitcoin and Ethereum price volatility (p < 0.10). The global index MSCI has no symmetric effect. The asymmetric approach NARDL suggests positive and negative asymmetric short- and long-term effects of USA and Japanese stock indices and currency exchanges on Bitcoin and Ethereum price volatility (p < 0.05). This research helps exchange brokers and crypto traders diversify their holdings, reduce stock index and currency exchange risk, and accurately predict Bitcoin and Ethereum price variations.
