Abstract

This study aims to examine the impact of social auditing practices on improving the quality of human resource management at the GICA Cement Company's Hama Bouziane branch. A descriptive analytical approach was used as a basis for covering the theoretical literature related to the study variables. A questionnaire was used as the main tool for data collection, in addition to studying and analysing the relationship between the study variables using structural equation modelling with the partial least squares method (PLS-SEM) via the SMART PLS programme. The study concluded that the application of social auditing practices to human resource management functions contributes significantly to improving the quality of human resource management by improving the quality and effectiveness of human resource management functions, based on monitoring the subtle variations and complexities in human resource management functions and revealing the hidden effects that affect human resource management practices.
