Abstract

Drawing on the attraction--selection--attrition (ASA) framework, this paper examines a mechanism, namely person--organization (P--O) fit, through which high-performance HR practices (HPHRPs) affect two negative employee outcomes: work-related stress and quit intentions. Using a sample of Egyptian public health sector workers, a mediation model is tested empirically using structural equation modelling. The study results show that HPHRPs positively affected P--O fit, which in turn had significant negative associations with work stress and quit intentions. P--O fit also explained a high proportion of mediation in the relationship between HPHRP and both outcomes.
