| Abstract: | The paper examines the relationship between strategic human resource practices and a firm's capability to produce product innovations. Hypotheses are developed by using creativity theory as a heuristic device, and then tested empirically. Based on data from 988 Dutch firms, task autonomy, training and performance-based pay are found to be the key components affecting the generation of incremental innovations. The study reveals also interaction effects between individual HR practices, between HR practices and firm size, and between HR practices and R&D intensity. |
