Abstract
This paper seeks to investigate the impact of Electronic Human Resource Management (e-HRM) practices on attaining Sustainable Competitive Advantage (SCA) in the context of the Jordanian Industrial Sector (JIS) and identify the mediating role of e-HRM Perceived Usefulness (PU) and e-HRM Perceived Ease of Use (PEOU). Furthermore, it investigates the moderating role of User Satisfaction and e-HRM Continuance Usage Intention. To achieve the paper objectives, a Mediated-Moderation Model was designed. The researchers distributed (750) questionnaires, (615) questionnaires were returned and validated for analysis in HRM and development divisions and based on a Census method with the response rate was about (82%). The ‘Structural Equation Modeling’ (SEM) methodology was used, and for analysis, SPSS and Amos were applied. The results indicated that e-HRM practices had significant influence on SCA. The paper also demonstrated that there was a significant mediate effect of TAM constructs on the relationship between e-HRM practices and SCA. Finally, the findings indicated that the user satisfaction and e-HRM continuance usage intention did not moderate the relationship between e-HRM-PEOU and PU and SCA path.
Highlights
Nowadays, the most successful organization leaders realize the power offered by Information Technology (IT) tools for achieving business sought-after ends (Ghazzawi, Al-Khoury & Saman, 2014)
This work predicted that Electronic Human Resource Management (e-HRM) practices will influence e-HRM-Perceived Usefulness (PU), it conforms to prior findings of Marler and Fisher (2010), which illustrated that PU of e-HRM is an important contextual variable for e-HRM; and corroborated by Wickramasinghe (2010), who asserted that PU is associated with e-HRM systems signals some form of compatibility

Summary
The most successful organization leaders realize the power offered by Information Technology (IT) tools for achieving business sought-after ends (Ghazzawi, Al-Khoury & Saman, 2014). The main aim of this paper is to investigate the impact of e-HRM practices on attaining SCA from HR perspective and identify the mediating role of Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) constructs: e-HRM Perceived Usefulness (PU) and Perceived Ease of Use (PEOU) between e-HRM practices and attaining SCA. It investigates the moderating role of Post-Acceptance Model (PAM) constructs: User satisfaction and continuance usage intention towards e-HRM, the researchers assess a three-way interaction between (1) User satisfaction and continuance usage intention and e-HRM-PEOU (2) User satisfaction, e-HRM continuance usage intention and e-HRM-PU
