Digitalization of HRM for strategic human resource management orientation: Logistic regression and dominance analysis approach

Background: According to the contemporary HRM theory, strategic human resource management (SHRM) orientation, as a company's philosophy of aligning human resource management (HRM) policies and practices with an organizational strategy for maximizing organizational results, is considered the highest level of a company's HRM development. At the same time, one of the trends in HRM is the digitalization of HRM activities, following the global trend of adopting digital tools for increasing individual and organizational efficiency and effectiveness. The question that consequently arises is whether the digital component entered the SHRM perspective, in other words, whether SHRM orientation could exist without digitalization of HRM endeavours. Purpose: The paper strives to provide answers, both theoretically and empirically, to the following central and three supporting research questions: CRQ = Is digitalization of HRM contributing to the strategic HRM orientation of a company?, SRQ1 = Are digital HRM practices positively related to the SHRM orientation?, SRQ2 = Are some digital HRM practices more relevant for the SHRM orientation than others?, and SRQ3 = If the relationship between digital HRM practices and SHRM orientation does exist, which digital HRM practice is the most relevant one for SHRM orientation? Study design/methodology/approach: To provide empirically based answers to research questions, we utilized the CRANET 2021 dataset, covering 4495 organizations with more than 200 employees from 38 countries worldwide. We used nine indicators for revealing the existence of digital HRM (manager self-service, employee self-service, HRIS, algorithm-based HRM, HR analytics, telework, digital learning, social media recruitment, social media selection) and five indicators for determining the SHRM orientation (HR manager's membership in the management board or equivalent; involvement of HR manager in the development of business strategy; existence of written HRM strategy; HR to employee ratio, the level of HR department performance evaluation). SHRM orientation was determined using K-Means cluster analysis, and relationships between variables were analysed using correlation analysis, multiple logistic regression and dominance analysis (DA). Findings/conclusions: Correlation analysis revealed that all indicators of digitalization of HRM processes have a positive and a significant relationship with SHRM orientation, implying that digital HRM practices are relevant for SHRM orientation. The results of logistic regression indicated that the usage of manager self-service, algorithm-based HRM, HR analytics, telework, digital learning and social media selection increase the probability of organizations' SHRM orientation more than other explored indicators. The results of DA demonstrate that the most important digital HRM practices for the SHRM orientation is digital learning. Limitations/future research: As CRANET dataset is limited in its variables of digital HRM and indicators of SHRM orientation, further research is needed to confirm our findings.

Trends in Human Resource Management in the New Technological Era

Human Resource Management is considered as one of the very important function of in every organisation. HRM is called as the heart and soul of a business, without which the organisation would not be able to effectively recruit and retain employee and they wouldn’t be able to maintain the organisation healthy. Mathis and Jackson have defined “HRM is the effective use of human resources and organisation through the management of people related activities”. The importance of human resource management is immense as many functions are there to human resource management that helps an organisation stay successful. Their duties and responsibilities in the organisation is very wide. It ranges from recruitment and training to managing disputes, maintaining a healthy work life balance, and all payroll responsibilities.Inspite of all these responsibilities, the role of HR department is heightened at the arrival of the pandemic.

Research trends in human resource management. A text-mining-based literature review

PurposeThe purpose of the study was to detect trends in human resource management (HRM) research presented in journals during the 2000–2020 timeframe. The research question is: How are the interests of researchers changing in the field of HRM and which topics have gained popularity in recent years?Design/methodology/approachThe approach adopted in this study was designed to overcome all the limitations specific to the systematic literature reviews and bibliometric studies presented in the Introduction. The full texts of papers were analyzed. The text-mining tools detected first clusters and then trends, moreover, which limited the impact of a researcher's bias. The approach applied is consistent with the general rules of systematic literature reviews.FindingsThe article makes a threefold contribution to academic knowledge. First, it uses modern methodology to gather and synthesize HRM research topics. The proposed approach was designed to allow early detection of nascent, non-obvious trends in research, which will help researchers address topics of high value for both theory and practice. Second, the results of our study highlight shifts in focus in HRM over the past 19 years. Third, the article suggests further directions of research.Research limitations/implicationsIn this study, the approach designed to overcome the limitations of using systematic literature review was presented. The analysis was done on the basis of the full text of the articles and the categories were discovered directly from the articles rather than predetermined. The study's findings may, however, potentially be limited by the following issues. First, the eligibility criteria included only papers indexed in the Scopus and WoS database and excluded conference proceedings, book chapters, and non-English papers. Second, only full-text articles were included in the study, which could narrow down the research area. As a consequence, important information regarding the research presented in the excluded documents is potentially lost. Third, most of the papers in our database were published in the International Journal of Human Resource Management, and therefore such trends as “challenges for international HRM” can be considered significant (long-lasting). Another – the fourth – limitation of the study is the lack of estimation of the proportion between searches in HRM journals and articles published in other journals. Future research may overcome the above-presented limitations. Although the authors used valuable techniques such as TF-IDF and HDBSCAN, the fifth limitation is that, after trends were discovered, it was necessary to evaluate and interpret them. That could have induced researchers' bias even if – as in this study – researchers from different areas of experience were involved. Finally, this study covers the 2000–2020 timeframe. Since HRM is a rapidly developing field, in a few years from now academics will probably begin to move into exciting new research areas. As a consequence, it might be worthwhile conducting similar analyses to those presented in this study and compare their results.Originality/valueThe present study provides an analysis of HRM journals with the aim of establishing trends in HRM research. It makes contributions to the field by providing a more comprehensive and objective review than analyses resulting from systematic literature reviews. It fills the gap in literature studies on HRM with a novel research approach – a methodology based on full-text mining and a big data toolset. As a consequence, this study can be considered as providing an adequate reflection of all the articles published in journals strictly devoted to HRM issues and which may serve as an important source of reference for both researchers and practitioners. This study can help them identify the core journals focused on HRM research as well as topics which are of particular interest and importance.
