Summary/Abstract: High demand and competition for employee and managerial talent has led to increasing interest in understanding the potential benefits of using high-performance work systems (HPWS) as a means to maximize firms’ competitive advantage. During the past decade, there has accumulated a body of empirical studies investigating the linkage between human resource management and firm performance. HR management practices do not directly influence corporate performance, but rather do so indirectly by influencing the motivation, behaviour and performance of employees. HPWS refer to a broad set of separate but interconnected HR management practices, including comprehensive recruitment and selection procedures, compensation and performance management systems, and employee involvement and training, which are designed to enhance employee and firm performance outcomes through improving workforce competence, attitudes, and motivation. This paper aims to present the key practices in HR field in building high performance work systems revealed in literature review.
