The impact of legal uncertainties on innovating HR practices in developing countries

This study explores the influence of legal uncertainties on the process of innovating human resources (HR) practices in developing countries. Through a case study focused on introducing remote work within Kazakhstan’s Technical Gas Industry during a healthcare crisis, we examine the multifaceted challenges and opportunities that emerge when navigating a complex legal landscape. Our findings reveal that legal uncertainties, stemming from inadequacies in legislation and the tightness of norms, significantly impede the ability to adapt and modernize HR practices during crises. Furthermore, the criticality of the company’s position within the industry, combined with a low degree of legal enforcement, underscores the concept of ‘responsibilization’ among HR professionals. This phenomenon compels HR practitioners to assume greater responsibility and make strategic decisions that occasionally push the boundaries of existing laws and regulations. In this context, we propose a novel conceptualization of responsibilization, distinct from empowerment, as it involves embracing negative legal consequences associated with proactive decision-making during crises. This study contributes significantly to our understanding of how legal uncertainties influence the process of HR innovation in developing countries, highlighting the intricate interplay between regulatory frameworks, crisis management, and organizational transformation.

Experiences of self-care through Youtube yoga videos in times of crisis

Drawing on the Foucauldian technologies of the self, this study explores how individuals re-envision practices of wellbeing outside of traditional organizational contexts during extreme events. Based on a thematic analysis of 7,234 comments posted on the Yoga with Adriene YouTube channel in 2020, this study unpacks a technologically mediated practice of self-care, which we conceptualize as somametamnemata. Our findings illustrate three entangled aspects of somametamnemata relating to yoga, a form of bodywork: Caring about self through practicing yoga online; caring about self and others through sharing about yoga in written comments; and caring about self and others through responding to shared verbalizations of yoga. By situating the potentiality of individual wellbeing within ill-being, we shift debates and discussions of “corporate wellness” beyond organizational boundaries.

What is affordance?

Les affordances sont des possibilités d'action offertes par l'environnement : objets, artefacts, technologies. Ce concept a été créé pour compléter la vision fonctionnelle en mettant l'accent sur les actions des utilisateurs et en aidant à identifier les défaillances potentielles ou les effets négatifs que les autres approches ont du mal à identifier. Même si cette approche ne fournira jamais au créateur toutes les actions potentielles de l'utilisateur, elle permet de changer de point de vue pour en adopter un plus réfléchi et de concevoir des modèles organisationnels et des technologies plus sûrs et plus faciles à utiliser.

What is boundary work?

Les frontières sont des outils qui délimitent des entités ou des mondes, et elles contribuent à maintenir l'autoprotection, à souligner la légitimité et à permettre à beaucoup d'autres choses de se produire en raison de leur capacité à séparer ou à amener des personnes, des objets et des idées particuliers dans de nouvelles configurations. Le travail de délimitation est une activité liée à la création, au maintien ou à la configuration de limites.

What is affordance?

Affordances are possibilities for action offered by environment: objects, artifacts, technologies. This concept was created to complement the functional view with an emphasis on users’ actions, and help identify potential failures or negative effects which the other approaches have difficulty identifying.

What is boundary work ?

Boundaries are tools that demarcate entities or worlds, and they help maintain self-protection, emphasize legitimacy, and enable many other things to happen because of their capacity to separate or bring particular people, objects, and ideas into new configurations. Boundary work is activity related to creating, maintaining or configuring boundaries.
