Abstract: Green management plays an important role having better environment friendly industry and it is one of the prominent methods for reducing future issues surrounding our planet. The present study presents an empirical study of the implementation of green management for a real-world case study of steel industry. The study designs a questionnaire and distributes it among some experts from a steel industry. One of the main objectives of the survey is to investigate whether the firm is in good conditions in terms of green management perspective and the preliminary results of our survey indicate that the company received 340.6 points out 1000 points, which means the present conditions of the firm is quite unfavorable. There are many reasons describing the present conditions of the firm such as the lack of an integrated responsibility, weak management support and involvement, shortage of financial support, etc. The study also provides some guidelines for having better green management outcomes, which are setting better accounting procedures for evaluating the cost/benefit of projects and priding sufficient financial support for projects.
