The Relationship

Purpose The authors wanted to look at the impact of both the overall HRM system and HRM sub-systems, in this case training, information, participation and autonomy. Design/methodology/approach The authors tested four hypotheses on thousands of employees from 104 Spanish SMEs. Previous studies of high-involvement HRM systems were done in large US firms Findings The results showed women are more likely than men to reciprocate employer offerings of supportive HRM. They are also more likely to withdraw their commitment when the work environment is unsupportive. However, the results showed that the moderating effect of gender on the relationship between autonomy and affective commitment was not significant Originality/value The authors said that few previous studies had tried to explain the different impacts on men and women of perceived HRM practices. Their study was also unusual in investigating the impact of both the overall HRM system and HRM sub-systems, in this case training, information, participation and autonomy.

Objective - The study explores the relationships between human r esource management practices on employee retention in Malaysian industrial setting s . The human resource management practices such as selection, training and development, performance appraisal and reward were considered in this study as the main factors that impact the employee retention in an organization Methodology/Technique - All d ata used in th is study consist s of respondents of executives and managers in manufacturing companies located in Klang Valley, Malaysia. Data processing and statistical analyses were mainly carried out using SPSS. Reliability test was used to check the con sistency and dimensionality of the scale items. P e a rson Intercorrelation was used to measure the associations among the human resource practices and employee retention and Multiple Regression Analysis to check the criterion - related validity of the scale i tems and to complement the correlation results. Findings - Data from 151 respondents from various industries show ed that the reward was most correlated with employee retention. This is followed by performance appraisal, in which fair and inclusive appraisa l leads to better retention. On the contrary, selection was found to have least significance relationship with employee retention. Novelty - The contribution of the study is in asserting some findings for human resource manager to understand the importanc e of an effective HRM practices on employee retention in the manufacturing industry. Apart from that, this research provides an understanding of some important elements in human resource management practices that are more effective in employee retention.

The current research examined the relationship of green human resource management practices with employees’ retention in the pharmaceutical industry of Oman. The study also checked the mediating effect of work engagement in the relationships of Green HRM practices with employee retention. Following the current purpose, the study targeted employees in the pharmaceutical industry as the unit of analyses. Five hundred seventy-six respondents were selected through simple random sampling. Data were collected through a self-administrative questionnaire. Collected data was screened through SPSS23, which concluded with 349 usable questionnaires for data analysis and assessment. Structural equation modeling via Smart PLS 3.2.8 was employed to test the proposed model. The findings of the study show a positive but insignificant association of green HRM practices toward employee retention. However, the study found a significant positive influence of green HRM practices with work engagement and work engagement with employee retention. The study also reported the mediation of work engagement in the green HRM and employee retention relationship. The findings of the study have contributed theoretically and practically.

The Relationship

The main aim of the study was to empirically investigate the mediating role of organizational commitment (OC) and person–organization fit (POF) between the causal relationship of supportive work environment (SWE) and employee retention (ER). One thousand questionnaires were sent to the targeted population included employees of all chains of multinational fast-food brands (restaurants) in Lahore, Pakistan. The restaurants were selected from clusters by using a cluster sampling technique. Questionnaires were comprised of multiple items adopted from former studies to obtain responses using quantitative methodology. For statistical analysis and to test the proposed hypothesis, the partial least squares (PLS) structural equation modeling (SEM) technique was employed through Smart PLS 2.0 M3 software. The study’s findings elucidated that SWE has a positive and significant association with ER. In addition, OC and POF acted as mediators between the relationship of a SWE and ER. This study presented implications for human resource (HR) practitioners that they should endure developing mechanisms for imparting a SWE to foster healthy exchange relationships with people, which in turn will result in ER. This article significantly contributed to the extant literature on the relationship of the SWE and ER while highlighting the critical factors to be noticed for retaining key employees. This study also explicated the limitations and scope for further research.
