Abstract

This article examines the – presumed – link between Human Resource Management (HRM), more exactly the High Involvement Work Systems (HIWS) and Company Performance, also known as the HR-P link. It does so in a somehow historical way, showing the development of the Human Resource Management field and how the presumed link with company performance slowly, slowly emerged and became a foundation in the way people think about Human Resource Management. In the end of the article the possibility of making Human Resource Management an objective, quantitative science, based on one of the principles of Quantum Physics;electromagnetism, isintroduced as a future study topic.
