TY - JOUR TI - Human Resources Management Effectiveness from a Multilevel Perspective AU - Majowska, Magdalena AU - Austen, Agata TI - Human Resources Management Effectiveness from a Multilevel Perspective AB - Background. Although it was proved that there is a positive relationship between effectiveness of HRM and performance of the organization, little is known why this relationship exists. It is due to the focus on the organizational level, instead of examining behavioral aspects of individuals in the organizations. Research aims. The aim of presented article is to fill the gap in HRM effectiveness research by applying multilevel approach. A literature review was conducted to examine how HRM effectiveness was linked to other variables in previous research according to the multilevel logic. Methodology. The article uses systematic literature review of the empirical research on HRM effectiveness focusing on its antecedents and outcomes. Key findings. The review revealed scarcity of multilevel approach towards HRM effectiveness yet suggests there is a gap in examining antecedents and outcomes on individual or unit/ group level of analysis.
