Use when the one-sentence claim is not sharp for a Human Resource Management (Wiley "HRM") manuscript — articulating the dual contribution the journal demands: a scholarly advance AND a clear implication for workforce policy or HRM practice. Frames the claim; it does not build the theory (hrm-theory-development).

# Contribution Framing (hrm-contribution-framing)

## When to trigger

- You cannot state in one sentence what the field now knows that it didn't
- The theory contribution is clear but the **practice implication** is missing or hand-waved
- The practice takeaway is vivid but the **scholarly advance** is thin
- A reviewer or the EIC's screen says "incremental," "no clear contribution," or "so what for practice?"
- The contribution lives in the discussion, not the abstract and intro

## HRM's dual contribution is the whole game

*Human Resource Management* states plainly that submissions must **advance the academic literature (theoretically, empirically, and/or methodologically) AND have practical significance — clear implications for workforce policy or HRM practice.** Most desk rejections at HRM trace to one of two failures: a rigorous paper with no realistic practice payoff, or a relevant paper with no scholarly advance. The framing task is to make **both halves** undeniable, in the abstract and the first two pages.
