This research is a systematic literature review on the role of Human Resource Management (HRM) in employee well-being and mental health. This literature review aims to identify HRM practices that influence employee well-being and mental health, as well as to evaluate their impact on organizational performance. The results of the literature review show that HRM practices such as working time flexibility, support from superiors and colleagues, career development opportunities, organizational justice and compensation policies, a healthy and safe work environment, recognition of achievements, participation and decision making opportunities play an important role in improving employee well-being and mental health. The implications of these findings support the need for organizations to prioritize the implementation of HRM practices oriented towards employee well-being as a strategy to improve overall organizational performance.

“…Moreover, firms seek to minimise the risks that are associated with employees by identifying environmental issues that present a challenge to the health and safety of employees (Chen et al, 2022;Geng et al, 2023;Han & Huo, 2020;Suharti & Sugiarto, 2020) and mitigate them to create a healthy working environment for them (Gouda & Saranga, 2020). Further, Li et al (2023) and Gu (2023) found that EP reduces health benefit costs by improving the employees' health. Based on the above discussion and also on the stakeholder's theory, we propose that EP will affect EHO.…”

This study draws on both the theory of resource-based view and the theory of stakeholders to investigate the effects of Green Human Resource Management (Green HRM) practices on Sustainability and Employee Health Orientation (EHO) through the mediating effect of Environmental Performance (EP). Based on a cross-sectional survey questionnaire, the data were collected from 318 service and manufacturing firms across India. Partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) was applied to determine the link among constructs. The findings of the empirical evidence reveal that Green HRM practices have positive and significant effects on EP, Sustainability and EHO. Also, the findings demonstrate that EP partially mediates the link between Green HRM practices and Sustainability. Similarly, the findings establish that EP partially mediates the link between Green HRM practices and EHO. Finally, the potential implications of this research and future research for practitioners and scholars are addressed.

BackgroundOccupational health and safety surveillance in the US relies primarily on federal and state administrative data sources which all have limitations created by underreporting and different sampling frames. To begin closing data gaps, in 2019 the federal Occupational Health and Safety Administration began requiring many US business establishments to submit injury and illness data to the Injury Tracking Application (ITA). We present an example use of these data by characterizing injuries in the California warehousing industry.MethodsYearly ITA data for 2018–2023 were obtained and cleaned to exclude invalid records, resulting in 3717 records from California General Warehousing and Storage (GWS, NAICS 493110) establishments. Annual rates of total reportable injuries and cases of injuries requiring days of job transfer or restriction (DJTR) were calculated.ResultsTotal injury rates peaked in 2021, with 5.87 injuries per 100 workers. While total injury rates subsequently declined, 2023 DJTR rates remained elevated over 2018 rates (3.21 vs. 1.84 per 100 workers). The primary analytical limitations were potential bias due to underreporting, and difficulty in identifying warehouse establishments.ConclusionThe ITA data are a valuable addition to existing administrative data sources, with several limitations similar to those in other administrative datasets. The findings of consistently elevated total and DJTR injury rates in California's warehousing industry are consistent with previous research and indicate that outreach and enforcement efforts should be expanded to protect the health and safety of warehouse workers.
