The impact of human resource management practices on manufacturing performance
研究提出并检验了一个人力资源管理分析框架，发现HRM实践可归为五个因子，其中四个分别与质量、灵活性、成本和时间等制造竞争维度相关，且与相应绩效维度强相关。
Abstract A human resource management (HRM) analysis framework is proposed and tested using data from first tier suppliers to the Big 3 in North America. Relationships among underlying dimensions of human resource management practices and manufacturing performance are examined. The study found support for the proposed framework, suggesting that human resource management practices can be grouped into five distinct factors, four of which are associated with specific manufacturing competitive dimensions (quality, flexibility, cost and time). The remaining HRM factor is generic. The four priority‐specific HRM factors are strongly related to their respective manufacturing performance dimensions.
