Sažetak
question, which urges both governments and organisations
to create policies and practices aimed at improving people's
happiness, one of which includes human resource
management (HRM) practices. As studies exploring the
association between country level HRM practices and
national happiness on the academic level are scarce,
especially empirical ones, the aim of this paper is exactly to
address this gap. HRM data used in the study were collected
through the Cranet 2014-2016 survey round and refer to
5,093 organisations operating in 27 countries on five
continents. National happiness data, Cantril ladder indicator
(CLI) as a measure, and six correlates of national happiness,
were obtained from the World Happiness Report database.
Findings suggest that HRM practices associated with the
highest levels of national happiness include: using
information technology (IT) recruitment platforms, recruiting
based on potentials and not on present knowledge/skills,
customised compensations, various work-life balance
initiatives, and training and development primarily for
career's and not employer's sake, which corresponds with
younger workforce cohorts' preferences.
