Abstract :
Background and purpose: One approach to sustaining human resources involves implementing high-commitment practices. The objective of this research is to present of the structural model demonstrating the impact of high commitment human resource practices on human resource sustainability derived from a mixed-methods approach.
Research method: The present study employed a mixed-methods research design. For the qualitative component, data were gathered through 12 semi-structured interviews, and the analysis was conducted using Atlas TI8 software. The quantitative component's statistical population comprised all employees of the Social Security Organization, from which a sample size of 384 individuals was derived.
Findings: The outcomes of the database theory identified six distinct categories of commitment-oriented ideology within organizational orientations. Furthermore, it facilitated the development of a team commitment-enhancing framework and the stabilization of human resources through the proliferation of commitment-enhancing knowledge. The results indicated the emergence of work systems characterized by organizational-wide commitment. The ecosystem of commitment-oriented strategies aims to enhance the performance management of high-commitment work systems. Quantitative analyses corroborated several hypotheses.
Conclusion: The optimal path for high-commitment actions initiates from a commitment-focused ideological framework and progresses towards an ecosystem comprised of commitment-oriented strategies. This framework serves as a strategic blueprint to develop of commitment systems.
