Research in Human Resource Management

In spite of the increased use of technology in the field of HR,
relatively little research has examined the acceptance and
effectiveness of electronic human resource management
(eHRM) methods. As a consequence, practitioners are
implementing these new systems without the benefit of
research. The primary purpose of this volume is to review the
results of research on a number of important eHRM practices.
