Pro-environmental behavior (PEB) has received considerable attention in business and other social sciences disciplines. However, very few studies have focused upon the PEB in organizational settings and no study has examined the employees‟ PEBs in Pakistani organizations. Building upon the existing theories in other disciplines, this study examines how PEB is influenced by organizational characteristics, i.e. organizational environmental policy, organizational citizenship behavior and transformational leadership. Data were collected by means of self-report surveys from employees of major private organizations with proportionate sampling of companies following environmental practices versus organizations not following environmental practices. Multiple regression analysis was employed to test the proposed model. The findings indicate that organizational environmental policy positively influences the workplace PEBs. Organizational citizenship behavior also positively influences the PEB. Transformational leadership does not influence the workplace PEBs.
