Organizational Health

Organizational health is a concept that has aroused growing interest in organizations as well as the scientific community. It is defined as an organization’s ability to work efficiently and effectively, achieving a state of continuous growth and development to form an integrated system towards achieving organizational goals. It affects job satisfaction, employee ef- fectiveness, and performance. This concept is closely related to employees’ perceptions of equity, justice, and participation within the organization. Moreover, it can help to foster harmony between organiza- tions, employees, and leaders which can lead to the success and the sustainability of organizations. In addition, some authors suggest that there is a strong relationship between organization vision and organizational health. Organization leaders play a crucial role in the promotion of organizational health, they are accountable for achieving the organization’s goals and vision. In this sense, leadership styles are important sources of organizational health in organizations. Organizational health is also achieved when employees want to work and stay in and are proud to be part of the organization.

Organizational health can be influenced by human resource management practices as well as new information technologies considering their predominant presence in most organizations nowadays, leading to the development of the concept of E- HRM concept which refers to the integration of these new technologies in the human resource department. To the best of our knowledge, no study has already linked E-HRM with the concept of organizational health.

It explores the advantage of integrating information technology into hu- man resource management to enhance the organization’s ability to attract the best of human resources from different environ- ments to achieve the ideal diversity of the human element.
