Summary: | Purpose – Based on the relevance of resilience in the workplace and
the importance of effective human resource management strategies
in organizations, this research proposes to identify the influence of
human resource management policies and practices on public servant
resilience at work.
Design/methodology/approach – The data from this quantitative
study were analyzed by means of confirmatory factor analysis and
regression analysis using structural equation modeling. The data
collection was carried out through a survey.
Findings – Involvement policy was the only predictor of resilience
at work. In addition, the results revealed two scales (HRPPS and
Resilience at Work Scale) with validity and reliability, which can be
used in relational scientific studies.
Originality/value – This research contributes to empirical studies in the
area of organizational behavior regarding the background investigation
of resilience at work and especially the analysis of a relationship between
variables not yet explored in the literature. |
