Abstract [English]

Employee well-being has become a critical element in shaping long-term organizational success, with sustainable Human Resource (HR) practices playing a vital role in fostering a supportive and healthy work environment. This research explores the relationship between employee well-being and sustainable HR practices, such as work-life balance, flexible work arrangements, mental health initiatives, and continuous employee development. The study investigates how these practices contribute to employee satisfaction, retention, engagement, and overall productivity. Furthermore, it examines the long-term benefits of sustainable HR policies on organizational performance, innovation, and corporate social responsibility (CSR). By adopting a sustainability-focused approach to HR management, organizations can achieve a positive work culture, enhance employee commitment, and improve organizational resilience. This research highlights the critical role of sustainable HR strategies in building a thriving workforce that aligns with the organization's sustainability goals.
