Abstract

Human resources (HR) analytics implementation is a field that continues to evolve, keeping pace with the increasing speed of digital innovation. However, despite its practical significance, there is a lack of knowledge of effective HR analytics implementation. Therefore, in this study, by conducting an in-depth analysis of 89 peer-reviewed HR analytics studies published during the past twenty years, we present a comprehensive summary of determinants of successfully implementing HR analytics in organizations. Furthermore, using adaptive structuration theory, we propose a dynamic framework of HR analytics implementation, offering guidance to both HR practitioners and HR scholars. Finally, we provide a research agenda aimed at stimulating future research endeavors in HR analytics.
