Islamic values and human resources management: A qualitative study of grocery stores in the Quebec province

Over the last two decades, the study of the effect of Islamic values on management has been of interest to researchers. However, the study of the impact of these values on human resources management remains limited. The objective of this article is to shed light on the human resource management practices of Muslim immigrants settled in Quebec City. To achieve this objective, we conducted a qualitative study of the impact of the Muslim religion on human resources management in grocery stores located in the national capital. The results show that the values of the Muslim religion influence the behavior of grocery store owners, which in turn influences human resource management practices. This research contributes to the development of cross-cultural management research by showing how Islamic values influence human resource management practices in a different cultural context.
