Abstract: The theory of planned behaviour (TPB) has widely been used to make prediction about intention and behaviour for technology adoption and medication therapy. However, it lacks of investigation to predict green behaviour of healthcare professionals. Accordingly, this cross-sectional study is conducted to predict healthcare professional community towards green behaviour in public hospitals in Karawang, Indonesia. With the assistance of the hospitals' human resource divisions, data are collected from 157 healthcare professionals, consisting of pharmacists, nurses, and physicians, by means of convenience sampling. Partial least square is used to test the model of TPB. The study finds that three TPB, namely attitude, subjective norm, and perceived behavioural control, are the significant predictors of intention of the healthcare professionals towards green behaviours in their work setting.
