Measuring the impact of HRM on organizational performance
Abstract: The purpose of this
paper is to measure the impact of HRM on organisational performance in the
context of Greece. Data were collected from 178 organisations using a
questionnaire survey in the Greek manufacturing sector, and analysed using the
‘structural equation modelling’ methodology. The results indicated that the
relationship between HRM policies (resourcing and development, compensation and
incentives, involvement and job design) and organisational performance is
partially mediated through HRM outcomes (skills, attitudes, behaviour), and it
is influenced by business strategies (cost, quality, innovation). Thus, the
contribution of this study for academics and practitioners is that HRM policies
associated with business strategies will affect organisational performance
through HRM outcomes.
