Promoting Employee Flexibility Through HR Practices
研究区分了员工行为灵活性和技能灵活性,发现技能灵活性影响行为灵活性,且工作丰富化和人力资源实践的内部匹配对两者有显著作用,对西班牙企业管理者有参考价值。
Abstract Current competitive environments have created a growing interest in employee flexibility in firms. Recently researchers have differentiated between two facets of employee flexibility: behavior flexibility and skill flexibility. This study proposes a model of relationships between these two facets of employee flexibility and the extent to which HR practices influence them. This model is tested by estimating structural equation models on a sample of 226 commercial departments in Spanish companies. The results of the study show that the two facets of employee flexibility are interrelated, in that skill flexibility influences behavior flexibility. Furthermore, findings confirm the influence of job enrichment on employee flexibility and the significant effect of the internal fit among HR practices on employee flexibility. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
