By: Contributor(s): Material type: BookBookPublication details: Description: 160-178pSubject(s): In: Journal of Education for Sustainable Development. 9(2) September, 2015Summary: Much has been written about the role of human resources professionals in creating sustainable organizations. However, despite recognition that or-ganizational human resources functions have an important role to play in sustainability, researchers tend to focus on strategic issues and sustainabil-ity. This higher-order focus has often meant that practical, operational-level advice has been overlooked. This article addresses that gap by presenting a framework of suggested sustainable recruitment and selection practices. This framework is applicable to practitioners and acts as a curriculum for educators. Almost 90 specific environmental, economic and social sustain-ability practices in recruitment and selection were revealed in the data collection process. A prioritized top 10 list of practices is recommended for immediate implementation.
