A study on HRM practices, employee performance, and organisational performance: evidence from logistics firms in Vietnam

The development of the logistics industry has led to an increase in demand for professional talents. Employees can be regarded as important professional human resources in the future of the industry, so their work status, perception, and overall views need to be understood and explored. With a sample of 275 employees in logistics firms, this study aims to investigate the perception of logistics employees of HRM practices, employee performance (EP), and organisational performance (OP). The findings show that: 1) the higher the HRM practices, the higher the performance of employees and the organisation; 2) employee performance has a positive impact on organisational performance; 3) employee performance mediates the relationship between HRM practices and organisational performance. The results are expected to provide business operators with a reference for formulating HRM strategies to improve organisational performance as a basis for management decision-making.
