About the Journal of Research and Practice in Human Resource Management
Research and Practice in Human Resource Management (RPHRM) is an international refereed journal published by the School of Management, Curtin University of Technology, Perth, Western Australia and the Singapore Human Resources Institute (SHRI). The aim and scope of the journal is to provide a specialised academic medium and important reference for the encouragement and dissemination of research and practice in human resource management, particularly in South-East Asian organisations. Preference will be given to original qualitative and quantitative empirical studies which contribute to a better understanding of human resource management challenges in the Pacific Rim. Theoretical and conceptual work is also encouraged. In addition to such scholarly endeavours, case studies that highlight the application of specific techniques or describe the impact of personnel or organisational practice are equally welcome.
