The present study aims to explore the relationship between Green Strategy and Relational Capital. In doing so, it also investigates how green policies influence relational capital. The literature review refers to the significance of relational capital and its impact on strategic goals: organisational performance, organisational innovation and the social capital of the organisation. Examining the variables, green strategy and relational capital has also highlighted the factors that are influenced by green policies, including strengthening the negotiation capacity of the organisation, reinforcing knowledge diffusion and the development of a new corporate identity. Green practices that aim to improve the external conditions of the organisation are common characteristics and lead us to the following agents: Customers - Suppliers – Alliances – Corporate Reputation. Consequently, the categorisation of green practices refers to the relational capital’s components. The impact of green practices on relational capital is therefore indirectly proven due to the strong relationship between the factors and the components.

In this paper, we aim to explore the effect of information technology on HRM functions, examining the absorption of the e-HRM system by employees in the new working context. The research is a case study in a group of companies, the “Biomedicine Group” in Greece, specialized in the healthcare sector. Quantitative research was conducted with a stratified sample consisting of 200 employees out of 2000 doctors, nurses and administrative employees. The study found that the e-HRM system had a positive impact on organizational outcomes, enhancing HRM functions. Moreover, it demonstrates both the usage of the e-HRM system by employees and the usefulness of these systems. The integration and use of an e-HRM system increases employees’ satisfaction, facilitating their work and advancing their capabilities. Managers through specially designed and implemented training programs can promote employees’ sense of qualification and capability within the context of the organization.
