Abstract

Sustainable Human Resource Management (SHRM) plays an important role in environmentally friendly organisations, as its practices and policies respect human beings and natural resources in line with the economic, social and environmental pillars of sustainability. A tremendous rise in the significance of sustainable organisations has been observed over the last previous years. However, academic research currently lacks a coherent conceptualisation and empirical operationalisation of the concept of sustainable employee performance. Moreover, very little is known on the relationship between SHRM and sustainable employee performance. Therefore, the aim of this systematic literature review is to analyse their relationship and provide an understanding of how the implementation of SHRM practices can help to achieve sustainable employee performance. Articles have been extracted from google scholar and Scopus database. They were selected based on the PRISMA framework. After a detailed analysis, research trends have been identified and research gaps have been uncovered. Thus, this study has contributed to the literature of  the relationship between SHRM and sustainable employee performance. A conceptual framework that can advance knowledge in this field has also been proposed.
