The focus of this paper is to examine the strategic role of human resource (HR) management in organizational level goal-setting and decision-making processes and to determine how the Human Resources department collaborates with other departments or outside organizations to execute its practices both within and outside the Afghanistan Ministry of Mines and Petroleum (MoMP). In this study, social network analysis (SNA) is utilized to analyse the formation of networks for each practice of human resources management (HRM) in the Ministry of Mines and Petroleum. This research has found that although public organizations in Afghanistan lack a modern administrative system due to the unsuccessful implementation of administrative reform, some features of strategic HRM are apparent in the current HRM within public organizations in Afghanistan, particularly in the MoMP. This finding provides insight into the strategic HRM concept, which can contribute more than traditional HRM to improving the sustainability of the MoMP.

Recruitment plays a central role during digital transformation because companies in many industries need to hire employees who possess IT-related knowledge, skills and abilities to digitalise their products, services and processes. However, extant research so far mainly has focussed on the use of digital technology in recruiting processes and its outcomes, whereas strategic aspects have received little attention. Based on 26 interviews with recruiters in 22 organisations, this study examines the interplay between recruitment and digital transformation beyond the use of digital technology in recruitment, focussing on more strategic aspects. The study examines recruitment’s role in organisations’ digital transformation. We found that the recruitment of digital talent as a new target group triggers change within the company, and does so in three ways: First, recruiters have realised the necessity to adapt their measures and processes to the new target group. Second, recruiters have developed a new self-understanding. Third, recruiters have recognised the need to support the organisation’s digital transformation by taking on a bridging function. Our study makes two contributions: First, we identified two new roles for recruitment during digital transformation: It acts as a ‘sensory organ’ that enhances the organisation’s absorptive capacity; and it takes on the role of a ‘mediator’ between external and internal groups. Second, this study builds on the human resources (HR) literature by analysing the strategic implications that digital transformation imposes on recruitment, highlighting recruitment’s part in renewing an organisation’s human resource base, which is crucial for its digital transformation.

Human Resources Management (HRM), managing work and people to achieve their desired goals, is a fundamental activity of any enterprise or organization that employs people. HRM is the basis for their creation and development. There are a number of different HRM styles, ideologies, forms, and methods, but there are no universal models that can improve performance for each enterprise or enhance their relative effectiveness in specific strategic areas, such as the introduction of new production technologies, the use of advertising campaigns. or the purchase of real estate. However, it is impossible to question the necessity of the personnel management process itself, that is, rational attempts to organize work and manage people. The purpose of the paper is to outline the theoretical foundations of personnel management of construction enterprises. Over the last twenty years, the relationship between HRM and strategic management studies has deepened, significantly widening the socio-economic range and possible cause and effect. Getting acquainted with the scientific works of the founders on this subject allows us to distinguish three main areas: 1. Micro HRM - covers the subheadings of HR policies and practices that can be grouped into two main categories. 2. Strategic HRM deals with systemic issues and issues that have serious implications for the enterprise. 3. International HRM - less involved in the context of strategic human resource management, focused on HR management in multinational companies. In the construction field, the HRM is mainly focused on the adequate provision of projects with human resources with relevant experience, professional characteristics and the right skillsets for their successful implementation. Personnel managers should have the ability to identify and document project roles and responsibilities, developing planning with a detailed description of the intermediate processes required to complete the project (or projects) and identify its human resource needs. Construction, due to its specificity and versatility, is one of the most difficult areas for managing people. The operational realities faced by construction companies confirm the risks associated with the close relationship between employee needs and performance issues.
