“…First, the present research extends the scope of SRHRM from general organizational management area to hotel industry and answers the ongoing call for more research of CSR in hotel industry (Kim et al , 2020; Luu, 2017). Even though a growing number of research have emerged to assume the CSR issues in hotel industry concerning sustainable human resource management (Chan et al , 2021; Macke and Genari, 2019), green human resource management (Pham et al , 2019; Kim et al , 2019) and sustainable labor practices (Mooney and Baum, 2019), most of them have prominently focused on environmental impact and also ignore the significant role of employees in CSR implementation. As such, this research addresses the void by introducing SRHRM, a concept aims at encouraging employees to participate in organizational CSR initiated with the human resource management function, into hotel industry.…”

“…On the other hand, hotel industry has been criticized for imposing negative social impact, such as high consumption of natural resources (Gabarda-Mallorquí et al , 2017), producing a lot of wastes and pollution (Nwokorie and Obiora, 2018) and poor employment condition (Kim et al , 2020). As such, an emerging number of scholars have attempted to assume the CSR issues with the hotel field from various perspectives, such as sustainable human resource management (Chan et al , 2021; Macke and Genari, 2019), green human resource management (Pham et al , 2019; Kim et al , 2019) and sustainable labor practices (Mooney and Baum, 2019).…”

PurposeBased on the role theory and prosocial motivation literature, this research aims to explore the bright and dark side of socially responsible human resource management (SRHRM) on hotel employees' outcomes through the mediation of role conflict. Besides, this study examines the moderating effect of prosocial motivation between role conflict and volunteering and organizational citizenship behavior (OCB).Design/methodology/approachThe authors collected 326 employee-supervisor dyads data in two waves from 12 hotels in the province of Wuhan, China. Besides, structural equation modeling (SEM) analysis was adopted to test the hypothesized model.FindingsAs expected, the result shows that SRHRM can increase employees' volunteering and decrease their OCB through the mediation of the role conflict. Further, prosocial motivation strengthens the linkage between role conflict and volunteering, but not the relationship between role conflict and OCB.Practical implicationsThis result enables hotel managers to adopt SRHRM as a useful tool of carrying out suitable corporate social responsibility (CSR) activities. Additionally, this study highlights the vital role of employee in successful CSR implementation.Originality/valueAlthough the hotel industry contributes a lot to global economic development, CSR research specifically focused on hotel industry has been unexplored. Therefore, this research brings SRHRM into hotel industry and establishes a model specifying both the bright side and dark side effect of SRHRM in the hotel industry.

“…This connection is significantly shaped by government policies and laws. The beneficial relationship between tourist management and financial growth, for instance, may be attributed to supportive regulatory frameworks that encourage investment, the development of tourism infrastructure, and financial stability (Sharpley & Harrison, 2019). Another important aspect is political stability since political turmoil and instability can discourage both financial investments and tourism (Sinclair et al, 2003).…”

The purpose of this research is to examine the link between financial development and tourism. The study looks at the relationship between financial development variables including Domestic credit by private sector bank and Broad Money and tourism measures like tourist receipts. The analysis is based on data from an Asian country ranging from 1995 to 2020 and using correlation analysis, co integration first generation (Kao) and Linear regression to investigate the relationship between the variables. Whereas the cross-section dependence and ordinary least square test also used to generate the results. The findings indicate a positive relationship between financial development and tourism, implying that nations with more developed financial systems have greater levels of tourism activity. More study is needed, however, to establish the causal link and understand the underlying processes behind this correlation.

“…Given its importance, it is no surprise that the issue of workplace diversity (both its characteristics and composition) is identified as a major research theme in the H&T literature (Baum et al. , 2016a; Mooney and Baum, 2019). However, we know little about how diversity has been studied in H&T, where diversity research has been published, who are the diversity scholars in our field and if their work has been influential.…”

PurposeThis paper charts the development of diversity research in hospitality and tourism (H&T) as a field of study. The authors are interested in how diversity has been studied, where diversity scholarship has been published, who are the leading diversity scholars and whether the scholars work has been influential. In addition, the authors identified the institutions and countries that contribute significantly to diversity scholarship in H&T.Design/methodology/approachThe authors draw from the Web of Science (WoS) Core Collection, Scopus and Australian Business Dean's Council (ABDC) Journal Quality List covering 109 journals to identify the relevant articles on workplace diversity in H&T. The authors conducted evaluative and relational bibliometric techniques to assess the prominence of diversity scholarship in the field.FindingsDiversity research in H&T did not gain traction until 2005. Using Equality, Diversity and Inclusion: An International Journal as a benchmark, the authors found that diversity research in H&T closely tracked the diversity topics in general organization and management literature. However, H&T lagged in race and ethnic, as well as gender identity research. A majority of diversity research is published in leading (top-ranked) journals, signifying the value of diversity scholarship in H&T. Hospitality journals published the most articles, while tourism journals reported the highest impact. Scholars based in the USA, China and the United Kingdom (UK) contributed the most diversity articles, but one researcher, Osman M. Karatepe (Turkey), stood out as the most productive and influential diversity scholar in H&T.Practical implicationsThe insights from this study aid H&T scholars in identifying trends and opportunities in diversity research, assessing the productivity and impact of various journals and databases, locating collaborative opportunities (through co-citations and highly productive and influential institutions and scholars) and benchmarking the scholars’ own work.Originality/valueGiven an absence of prior review and diversity research has only gained ground in the H&T literature since 2005, this bibliometric study offers a fossil record and documents the trajectory of diversity scholarship in H&T, identifies the scholars who are active in this area of research and highlights institutions and countries where diversity research is conducted.
