Abstract
This paper aims to examine the relationships among environmental training, environmental attitude of employee and environmental orientation of organization and the mediating effect of environmental attitude of employee in the relationship between environmental training and environmental orientation of organization. In order to achieve the study objectives, primary data were collected from 108 employees of selected leading apparel company which is operating in Batticaloa and Polonnnaruwa areas of Sri Lanka. The simple mediation analysis was used to test the research model. Findings of the study revealed that, there are positive and significant relationships exist among the study variables. Moreover, empirical finding of the study indicated that environmental attitude of employee does not mediate with the relationship between environmental training and environmental orientation of organization. The empirical finding of the study contradicted with what was hypothesized in the study. Hence, further empirical studies should be carried out to test the theoretical argument (mediating effect) of this study.
