In the sustainability of the banking industry, Human resources (HR) plays a vital role, and reporting the value of employees is key to sharing the health of the bank. A plethora of HR information is disclosed by the banks of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) through annual reports. However, the extent of disclosure by KSA banks remained under-studied. An exploratory multiple case-study methodology was applied to understand the extent to which HR knowledge is disclosed by the KSA banks. The annual reports (2015-19) of the top five leading banks were reviewed using a purposive sampling approach and were thematically analysed. Through signalling theory, it is found that the KSA banks voluntarily provide favourable signals to their stakeholders by disclosing best practices on talent acquisition and development, compensation-benefit, performance management, employee retention-turnover, employee engagement-well-being and HR achievements. These disclosures are not influenced by the number of employees or sales turnover, or capital.

W zrównoważonym rozwoju sektora bankowego Zasoby ludzkie (HR) odgrywają kluczową rolę, a raportowanie wartości pracowników jest kluczem do dzielenia się zdrowiem banku. Mnóstwo informacji kadrowych jest ujawnianych przez banki Królestwa Arabii Saudyjskiej (KSA) w rocznych raportach. Jednak zakres ujawnień przez banki KSA pozostawał niedostatecznie zbadany. Zastosowano eksploracyjną metodologię wielu studiów przypadku, aby zrozumieć, w jakim stopniu wiedza HR jest ujawniana przez banki KSA. Sprawozdania roczne (2015-19) pięciu czołowych banków zostały poddane przeglądowi metodą celowego doboru próby i przeanalizowane tematycznie. Poprzez teorię sygnalizacji okazuje się, że banki KSA dobrowolnie przekazują korzystne sygnały swoim interesariuszom, ujawniając najlepsze praktyki w zakresie pozyskiwania i rozwoju talentów, wynagradzania świadczeń, zarządzania wydajnością, rotacji pracowników, zaangażowania pracowników, dobrego samopoczucia i osiągnięć HR. Na ujawnienia te nie ma wpływu liczba pracowników, obroty ze sprzedaży ani kapitał.
