BAM2021 Human Resource Management Track

This track focuses on human resource management challenges during the COVID-19 pandemic and strategies for sustainable recovery. The pandemic has radically transformed work through increased teleworking and risks to those who cannot work remotely. While economies may slowly recover, some disruptions to work may persist. The track calls for research identifying the human and organizational implications of the crisis and exploring how to reconfigure HRM, work, and employment in the post-COVID period across topics like technology, flexible working, diversity, and talent management.

Track description:

HR and Organizational Challenges in Uncertain Pandemic Times and An Agenda for


Sustainable Recovery

The covid-19 pandemic has precipitated radical transformations of the way individuals, teams
and organizations function. Academic contributions seem urgent to inform HR research and
practice in the wake of unprecedented disruption to working lives, with some entering a
period of massive teleworking further blurring the line between private and professional lives,
while those who cannot work from home have higher risks of exposure to the infection at the
workplace. Even though there is hope that economies will slowly recover from the ongoing
crisis, especially given the scientific progress in vaccine development, some of the disruptions
observed in the work sphere may somewhat persist.

We call upon our research community to identify the human and organizational implications
of the public health and economic crisis as well as to explore the ways to reconfigure HRM,
work and employment in a post-covid period.

While we welcome contributions on the crisis itself, there are also a plethora of broader HRM
themes including technology and HRM, flexible working, equality and diversity, and talent
management (to name just a few) which would benefit from scrutiny in the wake of the
pandemic. We therefore encourage attempts to decipher the impacts of the covid-19 pandemic
across the broad range of traditional HR topics, and to critically engage in the reflection
regarding an HR agenda for sustainability recovery.
