Nurturing gender inclusive values orientation through sustainability-focused engineering

Traditionally gendered organisations such as engineering tend to face gender-based HRM

issues and challenges. In this developmental paper, we use the sustainable HRM framework

to rationalise how inclusive, altruistic, and green values dimensions can be critical to promote

diversity and inclusiveness in gendered organisations. We develop a framework that can be

adopted by traditionally gendered organisations to modify their values orientation to

encompass sustainable work practices and would enable them to achieve a sustainable

competitive advantage in the market.
