Abstract

Human Resource Management (HRM) research on fostering sustainability to date mostly focuses on enhancing sustainability within traditional corporations. However, in firms designed for financial (shareholder) performance, the role of HRM in improving sustainability remains structurally limited (Stahl et al. 2020). Our study therefore investigates the HR systems and practices of companies that already have a strong record in environmental sustainability.
Emerging research on the design of organizations for sustainability has pointed to the importance of investigating organizations that have implemented sustainability from inception and embedded sustainability in the structural design of an organization (Bals & Tate, 2018; Tate & Bals, 2018). Our study therefore aims at understanding

(1) how such organizations’ design for sustainability is reflected in their HR systems and practices, and
(2) how the HR systems and practices of such organizations contribute to the creation of shared value within the organization’s ecosystem.
