| Summary: | The purpose of this research study is to explore the moderating effect
the diversity of human capital may have on the relationship between
HRM practices and business performance. To this end, factors
determining of human capital diversity have been used.
With a sample of more than one hundred Spanish companies we have
carried out a factor analysis-principal axis factoring with varimax
rotation- on identified HRM practices and perceived organizational
performance as factors with good factor loadings, and consistent with
the proposed model.
Our findings indicate that the human capital factors such as “education
level," “functional specialization” and “length of service” condition the
effects of HRM-practices on organizational performance.
The literature pays little attention to non-linear models. Examining
the factors' determining human capital diversity casts some light on
the black box of the relationship between human resources practices
and organizational performance. |
