IJHRM has called for a special issue on the subjected-topic. If anyone is interested in working on this special issue, please contact me. Scholars should have a grip on comparative analysis and have published papers on emotional labour or relevant constructs.

This ‘Call for Papers’ entitled New HRM models for supporting managing emotional labour during emergencies invites HRM scholars to submit papers that develop new models and conceptualisations of HR’s role as the employee's champion, especially in relation to emergency workers. Consequently, we are interested in empirical papers that:

  • Demonstrate the role of HRM in supporting front-line emergency workers, including those employees who undertake high levels of emotional work in potentially stressful environments.
  • Integrate the role of HRM in the employee wellbeing-employee performance continuum.
  • Develop and analyse HRM models that conceptualise the role of emotions in fostering employee wellbeing and the performance of emergency   workers confronted with high levels of emotional labour.
  • The provisional timeline is as follows:

    • ‘Call for Papers’ announced June 2020
    • Full papers due by June 2021
    • First round of revision
    • Articles to the publisher
