Brigitte Kroon will speak about how HR decision making is best understood as embedded in a complex system of societal, institutional, and economic factors that interplay at multiple levels (national, sectoral, regional, organizational), and engage many actors. Diverging interests between stakeholders and interests cause tensions at the organization level, where there is no obvious best decision, leaving leeway to HR decision makers to respond in various ways. She will highlight research on sectors and businesses where these tensions around HR decisions are visible, and lead to different outcomes for employees – anything between fair work and exploitation. These insights provide implications for HRM research, as well as for HR decision makers and employees.
