Specifically, demographic’s profile, green organizational culture in terms of values and principles, behaviors and practices, communication and transparency, and leadership and support; employee commitment in terms of affective commitment, continuance commitment and normative commitment. A questionnaire was used to collect data from the 219 employees of ISO Certified Manufacturing Companies. Descriptive method was utilized to illustrate the significant relationship between green organizational culture and employee commitment. Based on the results, green practices in ISO certified manufacturing companies are always implementing green practices specifically when it comes to values and principles, and less implementation in terms of behaviors and practices, communication and transparency and leadership and support.
