There is a research demand to integrate the academic literature to reach a better understanding of EOR. Adopting the methodology of systematic literature review proposed by Centobelli etal.(2017), the present research provides a comprehensive analysis of eighty pieces of EOR research published from 1990 to 2020. Findings in the final table is tabulated and presented. theoretical gaps were identified in the current EOR research: a lack of research on the organizational context, on the integration of micro- and macro-level, and on the multidimensional analysis of individual behavior, organizational context, and employment relationships. Finally, management strategies as well as strengths and limitations of the study are discussed.
