Purpose

The purpose of this paper is to validate the corporate environmental citizenship measurement originally developed by Banerjee (2002) in the Malaysian setting.

Design/methodology/approach

A systematic sampling technique was used, with a total of 251 responses. The measurement was tested using content validity, convergent validity and discriminant validity.

Findings

The study finds that all four dimensions are highly suited for measuring corporate environmental citizenship in the construction companies in Malaysia.

Research limitations/implications

The study uses a single respondent to report on the organization’s corporate environmental citizenship. The perceptions among the respondents may differ.

Practical implications

Organizations can use the measurement for benchmarking current levels of organizations’ environmental degradation as well as identify which business areas are in need to improve environmental preservation.

Social implications

This study theoretically conceptualized corporate environmental citizenship as a multidimensional construct containing four dimensions.

Originality/value

This study contributes to the body of knowledge by validating corporate environmental citizenship measurement in the Malaysian context as measurement validation studies are scarcely found.
