Abstract: BACKGROUND: In today’s data-driven society, most organizations use data to streamline their processes and achieve greater efficiencies. Human resource management is also affected by this new management style. Human Resource Analytics (HRA) is a novel and emerging method for enhancing human resource management. Due to the novelty of this field, few studies have been published in HRA. OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this paper is to investigate the primary research area of Human Resources Analytics (HRA) and to identify the research gaps. METHODS: This paper employs a systematic literature review methodology and bibliometric approach to analyze 91 …pieces of academic literature published between 2008 and 2022. The exclusion and inclusion criteria of the PRISMA framework were used to select the publications. Descriptive analysis, citation analysis, three field plot analysis, and level of study analysis were some of the analysis techniques used. RESULTS: The findings showed that there has been an increase in interest in HRA recently, with most of the research coming from India. Additionally, it was found that most research are carried out at the organisational level. The main areas of research are awareness and comprehension of HRA, HRA software, HRA applications, and barriers to HRA adoption in companies. The primary study needs were determined to include post-implementation effects, an examination of industry acceptance of HRA, and factors influencing the adoption of HRA successfully. CONCLUSION: This paper makes distinctive contribution to the body of knowledge on human resource analytics while also opening up fresh directions for in-depth investigation into the use of human resource analytics in businesses.

Abstract: BACKGROUND: With the increasing demand for professionalism and specialization in college counselors (CCs), it is especially important to implement comprehensive professional ability building (PAB) of CCs. OBJECTIVE: This paper proposes to provide institutional support for CCs’ PAB by establishing a sound CC career development system and improving the CC salary system, in order to better support college education. METHODS: Through research interviews, literature research and expert consultation, a questionnaire survey outline is set up from subjective, objective, and institutional factors. A random sampling method is adopted to conduct a questionnaire survey on CCs and school students. …Questionnaire results are analyzed qualitatively and quantitatively in terms of reliability, validity and so on, and the influence factors of PAB for CCs are discussed. The research hypothesis is put forward, and the current situation of PAB is further summarized. RESULTS: It is found that CCs have a strong subjective willingness to build their PA, and the potential motivation of objective factors is sufficient. However, the existing system is not perfect, and job burnout such as diminished enthusiasm for work has appeared. CONCLUSIONS: Based on the existing research results, this paper combines PDCA Cycle theory with ideological and political education theory from the perspective of management science. Classical management methods are applied to the PAB system of CCs, and specific implementation countermeasures are presented according to the workflow construction model from decision-making to implementation, monitoring, and improvement.

Abstract: BACKGROUND: The efficiency and accuracy of risk prediction in traditional enterprise human resource management (HRM) cannot meet practical needs. In response to this deficiency, this study proposes an enterprise HRM risk intelligent prediction model based on deep learning. METHODS: Two tasks were completed in this study. First, based on the existing research results and the current status of enterprise HRM, the HRM risk assessment system is constructed and streamlined. Second, for the defects of Back Propagation Neural Network (BPNN) model, Seagull Optimization Algorithm (SOA) is used to optimize it. The Whale Optimization Algorithm (WOA) is introduced to promote …the SOA for its weak global search capability and its tendency to converge prematurely. RESULTS: By simplifying the HR risk assessment system and optimizing the BPNN using the SOA algorithm, an intelligent HRM risk prediction model based on the ISOA-BPNN was constructed. The results show that the error value of the ISOA-BPNN model is 0.02, the loss value is 0.50, the F1 value is 95.7%, the recall value is 94.9%, the MSE value is 0.31, the MAE value is 8.4, and the accuracy is 99.53%, both of which are superior to the other two models. CONCLUSIONS: In summary, the study of the HRM risk intelligent prediction model constructed based on ISOA-BPNN has high accuracy and efficiency, which can effectively achieve HRM risk intelligent prediction and has positive significance for enterprise development.

Abstract: OBJECTIVE: The present study aimed to provide a talent management model for Mobarakeh Steel Company (MSC). METHODS: The research method in this study is a mixed method including qualitative and quantitative methods. Qualitative data were collected through interviews with experts and informants and then analyzed by grounded theory. Then, quantitative data were collected from employees and managers and analyzed by Partial Least Square (PLS) analysis. Finally, an interpretation and conclusion were made. In the qualitative section, the research community consists of 15 managers and experts of MSC. In the quantitative section, 300 managers and experts were selected as …a sample, and questionnaires were distributed and analyzed. RESULTS: The results of the interview analysis extracted 86 concepts, which were classified into 5 categories including causal conditions, central phenomena, contextual factors, strategies, and consequences. The results of the qualitative section show that causal conditions had a significant effect on the central phenomenon (with a coefficient of 0.89). In addition, the effect of the differentiation of susceptible manpower on contextual factors (with a coefficient of 0.82) was confirmed. Contextual factors have a significant effect on strategies (with a coefficient of 0.93). The results also show that the intervening factors (with a coefficient of 0.74) have a significant effect on the strategies and the talent management process (with a coefficient of 0.92) also has a significant effect on the consequences. CONCLUSIONS: The results provide insights and practical suggestions for managers who decide to design human resource system with a talent management approach. Additionally, the findings of this research help managers to better understand the factors that have an impact on talent management. Show more

Abstract: BACKGROUND: The concept of spirituality is gaining popularity in the business world. However, its definition remains a topic of debate within the scientific community due to variations in scope and dimensions depending on the approach used. OBJECTIVE: This paper aims to identify the fundamental properties necessary for comprehending Organizational Spirituality (OS). The primary objective is to propose a consensual definition of OS. METHODS: We conducted a systematic literature review to identify prior approaches that have touched upon the concept of OS. Subsequently, we performed a combinatorial analysis to identify varied levels of comprehension …of spirituality in the workplace, and to provide an additional interpretation to the definition of OS by corroborating it with the perspectives of managers. RESULTS: We have identified two levels of spirituality in organizational contexts: the individual level and the organizational level. We thereafter suggested a consensual definition of OS which was confirmed by professionals’ testimonies. CONCLUSIONS: Research on the subject of OS is constrained by the insufficient conceptual development and divergent interpretations in current literature. Objective facts indicate that organizations cannot attain transcendence; however, their spirituality manifests in their vision, goals, and values. Show more

Abstract: BACKGROUND: In the current post-pandemic context, the main characteristics of workplaces have changed radically. Among the most prominent aspects of the post-pandemic workplace are hybrid arrangements, wide-spread remote work as the main work arrangement and increasing automation and robotization. These changes pose major concerns in terms of workplace wellness and occupational health and safety, primarily due to emerging or insufficiently analyzed risks in the workplace. OBJECTIVE: Especially in the post-pandemic world, where emerging risks in the workplace add to the pre-existing organizational challenges, the key to preventive and proactive organizational behavior is integration of ergonomics in …current work environments, irrespective of the type of work arrangement (remote, in office, manufacturing plants, etc.). Starting from this idea, the authors aimed to create an intervention model and to support the decision-making process to ensure successful implementation of ergonomic interventions. METHODS: The article presents a new perspective on workplace risk management and enhancement of workplace wellbeing based on a framework that encompasses workplace risk assessment, proposal of ergonomic interventions, and the managerial and financial evaluation of the proposed interventions. RESULTS: A key contribution to the literature in the field is represented by case studies on two companies, where cost-benefit analysis (CBA) was performed to assess validity of the proposed framework. CONCLUSIONS: The paper is a valuable contribution to the literature in the field of ergonomic interventions due to the innovative approach proposed by the authors. Innovation through combination is the key to a framework that addresses the real need of practitioners aiming to improve working conditions and ensure work-life balance across industries. Show more
