| Abstract: | The relationship between human resource practices (HRPs) and company performance in France is examined in this paper. The focus is on four specific HRPs that are able to involve employees: empowerment, compensation, communication and training. Each HRP taken in isolation is supposed to be positively related to performances since it is a source of motivation and commitment for employees. But there also exists a synergy between these practices; when they are combined into a bundle and are implemented all together, they should lead to better company performances. A survey of 180 human resource managers of large French companies leads to validation of most of the hypotheses. |
