Abstract
Sustainable Human Resource Management aims to aggregate and assist in implementing sustainable strategies and improving engagement and relationships with all stakeholders. This systematic literature review aims to understand the concepts and the association of Sustainable Human Resource Management with Corporate Social Responsibility and Corporate Sustainability from the Stakeholder Theory perspective, using the Scopus database. We found an increase in research for Sustainable Human Resource Management, which is the evolution of Green Human Resource Management. SHRM is relevant to management approaches aimed at sustainability. It has a broad view of dimensions, being focused on its employees and the socio-environmental and economic impact of the organization, considering the organization’s relationship with all stakeholders.

We found an increase in research for Sustainable Human Resource Management, which is the evolution of Green Human Resource Management
The role of SHRM is traditionally seen as supporting environmental management (Jackson & Seo, 2010) or as a manifestation of practices that aim at reducing the carbon footprint through less printing, reducing travel, or adopting other environmentally responsible practices (Jackson et al, 2011: Renwick et al, 2013)
Summary
The sustainable human resource management (SHRM) and the ethical aspects of corporate social responsibility (CSR) have gained prominence in academic studies (De Gama et al, 2012). Such prominence arises from the interest of stakeholders in promoting Sustainability (Jamali, 2008: Cooke & Gond et al, 2011). CS requires a simultaneous approach between environmental, social, and economic issues, so managers need to have a macro view of interconnections to make proactive and responsible decisions (Gladwin & Kennelly, 1995: Bansal, 2002: Maon et al, 2008)
