Purpose – This paper explores how one industry leader in Indonesia addressed its hiring and training
problems while simultaneously contributing to society through an HRM-led corporate social
responsibility (CSR) initiative involving a vocational education training (VET) intervention.
Design/methodology/approach - The VET case study, which is central to the paper, followed a four-
stage action research design. Data were collected through series of consultations with the company’s
top management, benchmarking companies, the vocational school, local community, and government
bodies.
Findings – The intervention reduced the company’s hiring and training problems and provided jobs
for graduates which addressed local youth unemployment. This experience generated lessons on CSR
strategic interventions which should be considered when HRM professionals are seeking to address
simultaneously organisational and social objectives.
Originality/value - This is an original case study based on primary data, conducted as action research.
Research limitations / implications - The study is based on a single case in a local setting in one
country.
Practical implications - The study offers insights to HRM practitioners who face similar problems
relating to upskilling, local talent supply, and employee recruitment. The proposed framework is likely
to be relevant to HRM practitioners who play a lead role in their organisations’ CSR initiatives.
Social implications - The case provides a realistic example of how a company, through its HRM
function, can play a meaningful role in addressing societal issues and strategic business objectives |
