Disclaimer
- The 23rd International Conference on Human Resource Management is intentionally multidisciplinary in scope, welcoming research that intersects HR with organizational psychology, labor law, behavioral economics, technology studies, and public policy; accepted submissions may therefore represent a broad spectrum of academic disciplines and methodological traditions rather than a single unified field.
- Possession of a valid registration confirmation does not automatically guarantee physical attendance at the conference venue; all in-person participants must adhere to the event’s final registration deadlines, any applicable health and safety requirements stipulated by the venue or local authorities, and the conference code of conduct.
- Registered delegates are encouraged to review the published schedule carefully, as the conference runs multiple concurrent sessions across different tracks; the organizing committee cannot guarantee that every attendee will secure a seat in every preferred session, and certain high-demand workshops or keynote overflow areas may have limited capacity subject to venue constraints.
