Jasmijn van Harten is associate professor at the Utrecht ľ¹Ï¸£ÀûÓ°ÊÓ School of Governance (USG). She is Director of Education Master and Education for Professionals (incl. Executive Masters) and member of the board at USG. 

 

In her research Jasmijn examines management and organization of individuals' sustainable employability and inclusion of people with a distance to the labor market. Questions she studies are for example: how can employers and employees invest in workers' development, motivation and well-being and what are the benefits or 'return on investments'? And how can line managers take into account the diverse characteristics and needs of their employees when boosting sustainable labor market participation? 

 

She has published several articles and book chapters on these issues, for instance a recent on employability in European Journal of Work and Organizational Psychology and a on HRM and employability in the International Journal of HRM. She co-authored on HRM in the public sector. A recent project in which Jasmijn participates concerns Autisme Werkt. In this project, a learning community for employers on ‘neuroinclusive HRM’ is created. In 2025, an open access hand book ‘S is published co-edited by Jasmijn.

 

Jasmijn also supervises several PhD research projects. These projects involve the ways in which employees' well-being, employability and performance can be boosted through HRM and leadership. Two PhD projects particularly focus on how employers can stimulate sustainable employment of people with disabilities.
