SUSTAINABLE HUMAN RESOURCE MANAGEMENT PRACTICES AND THE IMPACTS ON ORGANIZATIONAL COMMITMENT

Prácticas de Gestión Sostenible de Recursos Humanos y los Impactos en el Compromiso Organizacional

ABSTRACT

This paper aims to identify the impact of sustainable human resource management (SHRM) practices on organizational commitment (OC). The study used a sample of 290 employees linked to six companies classified in the Bovespa Sustainability Index. The research hypotheses were tested based on a structural model, using the structural equation modeling (SEM) technique. The results show that SHRM practices are represented by three dimensions: attraction and retention of professionals, maintaining healthy and motivated professionals, and developing the skills of professionals. These practices have a significant and positive impact on affective commitment (AC) and normative commitment (NC). Besides, the AC stands out as a partial mediator of the relationship between SHRM practices and NC.
