Employees are crucial contributors to their tour companies’ green strategies. The main objective of our research is to assess the role of environmentally specific charismatic leadership in fostering employees’ organizational citizenship behavior for the environment (employee OCBE). The mediation and moderation mechanisms for such a relationship were also examined drawing on social learning and social identity perspectives. The data set for our research was derived from employees and their direct managers working in tour companies in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. The analysis of these data was conducted through the use of structural equation modeling. Environmentally specific charismatic leadership demonstrated a role in shaping employee OCBE via employee environmental commitment as a mediator. The positive interaction effects between environmentally specific charismatic leadership and the three dimensions of organizational justice for pro-environmental behaviors—procedural, distributive, and interactional justice—were found to predict employee environmental commitment.
