Abstract
Improving employee performance always receives researchers and organisational managers' attention as this factor contributes directly to the organisational competitive advantage. Therefore, academic researches, as well as practices, focus on the factors affecting employee performance. However, employer attractiveness, primarily defined as the benefits of an organisation perceived by potential candidates, has not received sufficient attention. Studies regarding employer attractiveness have emphasised on the potential candidates, rather than current employees. Therefore, this study focuses on discovering a new direction -the impact of employer attractiveness on current employees, namely, employee performance. The research method used in this study is the mixed method, especially PLS-SEM analysis tool. Research data is collected from 937 employees from 37 organisations and enterprises in Vietnam. Research results discover the statistically significant relationship between employer attractiveness and employee performance. The results have helped confirm and develop the employer attractiveness factor; especially the new safety value factor.
