La Gestión de los Recursos Humanos (HRM) con un enfoque en la Cadena de Suministro (SC) permite a las empresas gestionar eficazmente sus cadenas de suministros. Este artículo justifica la importancia del estudio de los Recursos Humanos en la Cadena de Suministro (HRSC) y aporta un análisis de las investigaciones en estos dos campos, que permite aflorar las potencialidades y carencias sobre su estudio. Se presenta el estado del arte sobre la HRSC a través de un análisis bibliométrico de las investigaciones académicas publicadas en las últimas décadas, con el objetivo de identificar la existencia de vacíos en la literatura. Además, analizan los métodos de investigación utilizados, las áreas temáticas abordadas y las principales contribuciones de estas investigaciones. Como resultado, se han localizado 46 publicaciones que destacan el gran potencial de la HRSC, a pesar que existe una gran carencia de estudios sobre esta temática y se evidencia que es un área olvidada en la investigación, el interés por la cual surgió hace tan sólo dieciséis años. El estado del arte constituye el marco teórico adecuado para comprobaciones empíricas posteriores, lo cual implica el establecimiento y la justificación de nuevas líneas de investigación. A pesar de demostrar la importancia de los recursos humanos (RRHH) en la mejora de la SC, no existe hasta el momento un análisis bibliométrico como el que se presenta en este trabajo.components, with the intention of overcoming some of the critical factors in the supply chain, such as human resources.Bibliometric study.
The interest of this study is based on the fact that is no similar studies done in the past, despite being shown the great potential of the study of Human Resources in the Supply Chain (HRSC), which allowed companies to effectively manage their supply chains. Therefore, this work is a novel of great interest to academics and practitioners in the management of the supply chain. The fields of study of Human Resources Management (HRM) and Supply Chain Management (SCM), historically have been treated separately, although they are "intimately linked" in most business environments. The Human Resources Management (HRM) with a focus on the Supply Chain (SC) enables companies to effectively manage their supply chains. This paper justifies the importance of the study of human resources in the supply chain (HRSC) and provides an analysis of the research in these two fields, which allows the potential and shortcomings emerge on their study. The state of the art on the human resources in the supply chain (HRSC) is presented through a bibliometric analysis of published academic research in recent decades, with the aim of identifying the existence of gaps in the literature. In addition, analyze the research methods used, the thematic areas addressed and major contributions of this research. As a result, we have located 46 publications that highlight the great potential of the human resources in the supply chain (HRSC), eventhough there is a lack of studies on this subject and it is evident that this is a neglected research area; with an interest which arose only sixteen years ago. The management of human resources to improve Supply Chain Management (SCM) practices has not yet been treated formally, although some research suggests that this effort would improve the performance of the Supply Chain Management (SCM). The state of the art is the appropriate theoretical framework for further empirical tests, which implies the establishment and justification of new lines of future research. We show that future research should be oriented towards the study of soft or non-structural components, with the intention of overcoming some of the critical factors in the supply chain, such as human resources study.
