| Abstract: | The aim of this article is to examine the relationship between HR involvement in firm's strategic planning, job-related constructs, and their impact on firm performance. A new research model is suggested and the validity of this model is tested using data from 106 managers of Greek small and medium enterprises (SMEs). The results show that job characteristics and workplace characteristics in a direct way influence satisfaction and firm performance, while HR involvement has a direct impact on job characteristics and workplace characteristics and an indirect effect on satisfaction and firm performance. It is suggested that managers should emphasize on the HR contribution in the strategy planning process in order to improve employees' satisfaction and achieve better results. |
