Human resource management (HRM) practices can have a big impact on how well employees perform in the aspects of both in-role and extra-role performance. The impact of various HRM methods, notably the digitization of HRM practices, on the in-role and extra-role performance of employees working in the ready-made garment business has not yet been examined in the context of Bangladesh. Therefore, this study's main objective was to investigate the impact of human resource management digitalization on employees' in-role and extra-role performance in the context of Bangladeshi ready-made garment (RMG) enterprises. Using the 25th version of the Statistical Package for The Social Sciences (SPSS), the study investigated the opinions of the employees working in various departments of RMG companies in Bangladesh. It sought to determine how certain digitalized HRM practices, particularly e-recruitment and selection, e-training and development, e-performance appraisal and management, e-compensation management, e-complaints management, e-communication management, e-career management, etc., have an impact on both in-role and extra-role employee performances. Findings of this study indicated that, though certain digitalized HRM practices like e-compensation management and e-career impact significantly on employee extra-role performance they contribute insignificantly on employee in-role performance. Additionally, it has been found that e-performance appraisal management has a significant positive impact on the in-role performance of the employees. The study also made an effort to advise management body of the RMG firms to digitalize some HRM procedures that can improve employee and organizational performance.

Keywords: E-career Management, E-performance Appraisal, E-compensation Management, HRM Digitalization, In-role and Extra-role Performance
