Abstract

This research aims to achieve two objectives: to confirm results about the effects of high-performance work practices (HPWPs) at the organizational level, and to explore the effects of HPWPs on individual employee performance in small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). We conducted a meta-analysis of 115 studies to investigate how high-performance work practices are positively related to organizational and individual outcomes in SMEs, identifying critical benefits HPWPs offer. At the organizational level, HPWPs are positively related to firm performance, growth, and innovation, while negatively related to turnover and absenteeism rates. At the individual level, HPWPs are positively related to employee engagement, motivation, creativity, entrepreneurial orientation, job satisfaction, and organizational commitment, while negatively related to turnover intention. We nuance the applicability of HPWPs to the SME context and we contribute to the literature by highlighting the role of HPWPs at the individual level.
中小企业高绩效工作实践影响的荟萃分析:组织和个人层面结果的探索
本研究旨在实现两个目标:一是在组织层面确认高绩效工作实践(HPWPs)的影响结果,二是探讨中小企业高绩效工作实践对员工个人绩效的影响。我们对115项研究进行了荟萃分析,以调查高绩效工作实践如何与中小企业的组织和个人成果呈正相关,并确定高绩效工作实践提供的关键好处。在组织层面,HPWPs与企业绩效、成长和创新呈正相关,而与离职率和缺勤率呈负相关。在个体层面上,HPWPs与员工敬业度、动机、创造力、创业导向、工作满意度和组织承诺呈正相关,与离职倾向呈负相关。我们在中小企业背景下对高负荷工作计划的适用性进行了细微的区分,并通过强调高负荷工作计划在个人层面上的作用来为文献做出贡献。
