The psychological contract: Bridging human resource management practices and organisational effectiveness

许多管理人员认为，最近管理实践的变化是澳大利亚劳动生产率高的原因，但对这种影响传播的机制知之甚少。人力资源管理是否能使澳大利亚组织在全球范围内产生并保持竞争优势？在这个项目中，我们借鉴了行为科学中建立的理论框架，以了解人力资源管理实践如何影响员工的反应和影响组织的有效性，如劳动生产率。结果将直接有利于澳大利亚组织设计，评估，或重新配置他们的人力资源管理实践符合他们的竞争战略。

Many managers believe that recent changes in management practice are responsible for Australia's high labour productivity but very little is known about the mechanisms through which such effects are transmitted. Will HRM enable Australian organisations to generate and maintain a competitive advantage in the global context? In this project we draw on theoretical frameworks established in the behavioural sciences to understand how HRM practices influence employee reactions and impact organisational effectiveness, such as labour productivity. The results will be of direct benefit to Australian organisations designing, evaluating, or reconfiguring their HRM practices in line with their competitive strategy.
