Journal Article
Human Capital to Implement Corporate Sustainability Business Strategies for Common Good
2025
Overview
The International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS, 2023) guidelines have indicated the importance of holistic organisational sustainability values (profit, people, and planet) and the required human capital to implement sustainability business strategies to achieve sustainable development goals (SDGs). This empirical research using the strategic choice and sustainable human resource management resource-based theories explores the role of high-performance sustainable work practices (HPSWPs) with sustainability characteristics to shape the required human capital to implement simultaneous environmental, social, and governance (ESG) corporate sustainability business strategies aligned with the organisational sustainability orientation of firms. A total of 203 senior managers from Australian companies participated in this study. The participants completed survey questionnaires, which encompass the holistic organisational sustainability orientation, corporate sustainability business strategy, and high-performance sustainable work practices. The mediation study findings revealed that the social consciousness, stakeholder compassion, ethics of care for wellbeing, and pro-environment characteristics of high-performance sustainable work practices fully mediate the implementation of ESG corporate sustainability business strategies that are aligned with the holistic organisational sustainability orientation. This exploratory research extends the operational strategic choice theory from the sustainable human resource management resource-based perspective in highlighting the role of high-performance sustainable work practices in implementing the choice of environmental, social, and governance (financial) business strategies. Furthermore, the practical implications include improving the quality of voluntary sustainability disclosure by companies in alignment with the IFRS guidelines on management approaches relating to human resource practices to shape the required human capital with sustainability characteristics for corporate sustainability. Future empirical research directions in operationalising simultaneous ESG corporate sustainability business strategies using high-performance sustainable work practices aligned with the holistic sustainability orientation of firms are discussed.
