Disclaimer
- The 43rd International Conference on Human Resource Management is intentionally multidisciplinary in scope, welcoming contributions from organizational psychology, labor economics, management science, legal studies, and allied fields — authors should note that this breadth enriches discourse but means that not all submissions will be evaluated against a single disciplinary standard.
- Registration and payment of conference fees confirm a delegate’s intent to attend but do not constitute a guarantee of physical attendance; the conference organizers reserve the right to modify the program format, including transitioning to hybrid or virtual delivery, in response to circumstances beyond their reasonable control, with registered delegates notified promptly of any such changes.
- Session scheduling, room assignments, and speaker order are subject to revision up to and including the conference dates; delegates are advised to monitor the official conference platform for the most current program information, as attendance at any specific session cannot be individually guaranteed due to capacity, speaker availability, or program restructuring.
