A systematic review study: Do human resources management practices have an impact on organizational performance?

Abstract

One of the 17 goals of sustainable development is decent work and economic growth. In line with this goal, businesses can elevate the welfare of employees and create quality workplaces through evolving and changing human resource practices. The result of these good practices also enhances organizational performance (OP), thereby contributing to economic development. The aim of the study is to put forward the effect of human resources management (HRM) practices on OP and to examine the studies in the literature on this subject by applying a systematic descriptive content analysis called PRISMA (Preffered Reporting Items for Systematic Review and MetaAnalysis). Totally 26 articles addressing the effects of HRM practices on OP were examined in the light of the dimensions determined for the research through simple statistical methods and tables, and holistic conclusions were tried to be drawn from the studies conducted in the field.
