Abstract:
In 2003 the first article on
sustainable HRM was
published in the literature
and I have been
acknowledged for this
innovative concept with the
distinguished Emerald
Literati Club award At that
time sustainable HRM
focused on highlighting how
organisations showed limited importance to
employees and their family
health and well being while
maximizing profit Since
2003 many new
definitions of sustainable
HRM and
theories/perspectives
evolved over the last two
decades to shape
sustainable HRM as a new
field within HRM The most
recent definition 2021which I proposed, is
Sustainable HRM is designed
to provide a sustainability
oriented vision of HRM
systems, policies and
practices to synthesize and
achieve the competing and
inconsistent financial,
environmental and
human/social wellbeing
outcomes of corporate
business strategy”
