A needs–supplies fit perspective on employee perceptions of HR practices and their relationship with employee outcomes
本研究从需求-供给匹配视角，基于465名员工数据，发现员工感知到的人力资源实践与需求匹配程度正向影响敬业度和主动性行为，组织可据此优化资源分配。
Abstract This study explores the employees' views on the effectiveness of HR practices for their job performance, drawing from a needs–supplies (N–S) fit approach. Findings based on 465 employees show a positive association between the N–S fit of present HR practices (i.e., employees perceiving supplied practices as needed) and engagement and proactive behaviour. The N–S fit of absent HR practices (i.e., employees indicating they do not need the non‐offered practices) is positively associated with engagement and negatively with proactive behaviour. Additionally, proactive behaviour and engagement are higher when employees experience present practices as effective and absent practices as irrelevant for their functioning. Also, these outcomes are higher when employees experience supplied practices as effective while missing essential practices, than when the supplied practices are ineffective and absent practices are irrelevant. Organisations can use this approach to revisit HR practices that waste organizational resources and introduce HR practices that improve employee functioning.
