High-performance work systems (HPWSs) represent one of the key topics in contemporary strategic HRM. This study aims to examine the HPWSs in the IT sector of two emerging markets, Russia and India. The research based on the survey of 132 companies indicates that there are differences in HRM practices between Russian and Indian IT companies which constitute high-involvement and high-commitment HPWSs. Further, regression analysis reveals that these systems impact the firm performance differently. The findings extend the literature on HPWSs in knowledge-intensive firms in emerging markets.
