Abstract

The purpose of this study was to examine the relationships between perceived co-worker support, commitment to colleagues, job satisfaction, intention to help others, and pro-environmental behavior with the emphasis on eco-helping, with a view to determining the extent to which peer relationships encourage employees to engage in pro-environmental behaviors at work. This paper is framed by adopting social exchange theory through the lens of ethics of care. Data from a sample of 449 employees showed that receiving support from peers triggers an exchange process that encourages eco-helping among colleagues. The implications of the findings are discussed in the light of the social exchange literature.

Although we are aware of the existing debate among care ethicists about, for example, the nature of reciprocity, what interests the authors of this paper is that, in accordance with generalized exchange, most care ethicists share the idea that reciprocity should not be considered as form of contract, rather as an underlying process through which relations among people are maintained over time.

See Slote’s discussion (2007, chapter 2) about different forms of proximity in the ethics of care.
