A number of research studies have been published in recent years dealing with the implications of terrorism for HRM-related issues, mostly at the individual level. Different theoretical perspectives have been utilized, such as stress theory, social identity theory, and social support theory, and the respective studies have contributed to our knowledge in this important research field. Nonetheless, a comprehensive theoretical approach at the organisational level relevant to HRM in the context of terrorism is lacking. In order to address this shortcoming, we examine extant literature on the influence of terrorism on HRM-related issues, integrate several theoretical approaches that emerge from this literature, and introduce an HRM terrorism-response theory (TRT) relevant for companies operating in countries afflicted with terrorism. Avenues for future research are discussed and practical implications are derived.
