ABSTRACT

36Transition of today’s work setting has placed human resource management (HRM) practices in the central position. Coupled with changes in technology and information system developments, the nature of HRM practices has also adapted to such developments. Building on these recent trends, the aim of this chapter is to elaborate the field of electronic HRM (e-HRM) in research. We systematically examine the definition of e-HRM and conceptualize its relationship with organizational outcomes. Increasing prevalence of e-HRM carries important theoretical and practical implications for managers as well as researchers. We end our chapter with future research avenues.
