Abstract

The issue of sustainability in business has been a central topic of interest for some time. The role of Human Resource Management (HRM) professionals within those sustainable efforts may not be immediately apparent, but as a growing body of research in the field indicates, HRM Professionals are essential to successful company-wide sustainable initiatives. It would only make sense, then, that the impact of sustainable measures on HR outcomes be studied at length; using data from thousands of companies, our study examines the potential correlations between HR practices and sustainable efforts in business. This study will investigate the relationships that exist between companies' ESG scores and how their employees rate them in terms of HR outcomes such as engagement, pride in the organization, and their commitment to the organization itself.

Moving toward sustainability: An investigation into the relationship between ESG scores and organizational outcomes in HRM

The issue of sustainability in business has been a central topic of interest for some time. The role of Human Resource Management (HRM) professionals within those sustainable efforts may not be immediately apparent, but as a growing body of research in the field indicates, HRM Professionals are essential to successful company-wide sustainable initiatives. It would only make sense, then, that the impact of sustainable measures on HR outcomes be studied at length; using data from thousands of companies, our study examines the potential correlations between HR practices and sustainable efforts in business. This study will investigate the relationships that exist between companies' ESG scores and how their employees rate them in terms of HR outcomes such as engagement, pride in the organization, and their commitment to the organization itself.
