Abstract: This study aims to provide a literature evaluation of studies that examine human resources management practices using the bibliometric analysis approach. This study used bibliometric analytic techniques to conduct scientific mapping and performance analysis. The research used the Scopus database and included open-access studies. The bibliometric study revealed a total of 1133 publications and 25,456 citations during the period spanning 2000 to 2023. The number of publications on human resource management practices has steadily risen, reaching its highest point in 2020 with 110 articles and 2278 citations. However, citation counts noticeably declined in the subsequent years. A collective of ten countries has contributed to this field, with America being the most prolific, with 127 publications and 5157. Southwestern University of Finance and Economics is the most productive university, with two publications and 493 citations. The International Journal of Human Resource Management is a highly regarded publication focusing on HRM practices. It has published 52 articles and received 3459 citations. The most often used keywords are “Human Resource Management,” “Human resource management practices,” “Human resource,” and “Resource allocation.” The study identified the existing status and made recommendations for further research.
