Abstract: The purpose of this research is to determine the level of performances of the different offices in LPU Cavite in terms of green practices for the improvement of the organization's environmental performance. This will serve as the basis of developing operational guidelines for the employees. The descriptive research design was used. On the other hand, the comparative research method was used to determine if significant differences exist in the observation of the participants on the green practices when grouped by the type of participants. The study also used descriptive-correlational research methods to determine the significant relationship between the demographic profile and green practices in the operations of LPU Cavite. The majority of the participants are the non-teaching staffs of LPU Cavite, ages ranged from 26 to 30 years old, most are females, college graduates, and stayed in LPU Cavite between 1 to 5 years. The results revealed that among the observation of green practices, resource management has the highest mean of 4.44 while the indicator implementation and monitoring has the lowest mean of 3.98. There is no significant difference in the observation of the participants of green practices when grouped according to age, marital status, educational attainment, occupation, employment status, and length of service except for gender in relation to stakeholder support. Lastly, there is no significant relationship between demographic profile and green practices except for the length of service in relation to resource management and occupation in relation to facilities usage. It can be concluded that the non-teaching staffs apparently were more involved in daily resource management routine, including conservation, using environment-friendly products, and recycling. However, strict monitoring and implementation of these activities were least observed by employees that could affect the environmental initiatives of LPU Cavite. Females were more conscious and supportive in implementing green practices for the protection of the environment. Employees who stayed more than a year in the company were more committed to practicing sustainability in relation to resource management like saving energy and recycling waste. Among LPU Cavite non-teaching employees, rank and file staffs are more observant in applying green practices in using Facility and resources efficiently. It is recommended that LPU Cavite will consider the proposed operational guidelines for the implementation of green practices in LPU Cavite.
