  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Emerging Trends and Innovation in Business and Finance

Abstract

The current research examined the impact of electronic human resource management on workforce agility in the Jordanian banking sector. The research used experimental data through a survey distributed to 559 employees for Jordanian commercial banks at various administrative levels, which formed a response rate of 78.3%. Structural equation modeling (SEM) was applied as a statistical analysis approach to the collected data. The research concluded that electronic human resources management had a positive impact on workforce agility, as e-recruiting had the greatest effect, while e-performance appraisal had the least effect. Accordingly, the research emphasized the necessity of adopting a change management approach and seamless integration of electronic human resources management through comprehensive training programs and addressing any concerns or resistance to change.
