Abstract: | This manuscript presents conceptual and empirical evidence indicating that within the U.S. small business sector high performance work systems (HPWS) are associated with outcomes that are key to the success of small U.S. firms. The paper also presents empirical evidence indicating that within this sector of the U.S. economy HPWS do not necessarily produce outcomes that exceed the labour costs associated with the use of these systems. |
