Difference in ideology influenced the interpretation of the disclosure facts. For instance, in the category “1. Business Planning & Continuous Improvement”, banks favoring high-performance work system shared information regarding improvement of the operational efficiency, which often meant decreasing personnel quantity and consequent decrease in the wage fund. Banks shared how they fired worse performing employees; centralized, automated, unified job functions; normalized number of personnel across branches in the organizational chart. Among numerical facts, banks often reported total amount of employees, corresponding expenses, often mentioned different staff categories (employees by region, by age, by gender, etc.).

Banks favoring high-commitment work system in the same category referred to their core competency which provided their sustainable development, highlighting the role of employees in it. However, employees' role was mentioned rather in general terms: “Personnel of bank 4 is highly qualified and is one of the main resources with competitive advantages”. Disclosed plans of these banks included much more details about employees, compared to banks favoring highperformance work system. These banks also shared their interest in building a HR brand (banks 2, 3) and distinguished key personnel (banks 6, 17).

Banks favoring high-involvement work system highlighted expectation of high selfefficacy of employees: “The group strives for all employees to be worthy individuals (bank 1) in their interaction with customers, to be leaders regardless of their positions and to be responsible for themselves and their work” (from the report of bank 1). These banks stressed on continuous improvement. They shared initiating departments, which unite employees with different professional background. They also considered their own adaptability to market requests as own strength, and called its employees like-minded people with similar attitude to customers and common priorities in their work. Similar difference in the content of the HR disclosure was evident in all categories, fully matching theoretically predetermined patterns.

In summary, Table 1 provided useful patterns for differentiating between aspira- tional referent systems, it helped interpreting signals of success, despite high contextual specificity and discursiveness of related concepts.

Figure 2. HR disclosure extent (means by groups)

Variance in extent of HR disclosure Table 4 and Figure 2 illustrate difference in extent of HR disclosure among groups, while Figure 3 illustrates variance in extent of HR disclosure for each bank separately.

On average banks favoring high-commitment work system were indeed the most transparent, while banks favoring only highperformance work system disclosed the least amount of HR-related facts, especially non- russian banks (banks 15-17). However, there was high variance in groups and in categories. Banks favoring high-performance work system shared more facts in the third category “3. Learning and People Management” (29%). Banks that favored additionally high-involvement work system were more transparent regarding “1. Busines Planning and Continuous Improvement” (30%), while banks that adopted frame of high-commitment work system disclosed more facts about “4. Learning and Development” (28%). These findings highlighted difference in preferences, caused by frames of reference. The least transparent category for all groups became “2. Effective Communication & People Engagement”.

We omitted bank 1 from the observation for its exceptional transperency. One of the reason for such results could be government ownership. Bank 11 possessed similar characteristic and also significantly differed in its group in extent of HR disclosure.

Bank 4 showed exceptionally low extent of HR disclosure in compared to other banks in its group. The reason of such difference might lay in location of the head office outside of Moscow and Moscow Region. However, this reason was not valid for banks from the other groups (banks 10, 12), which, on the contrary, showed better level of transparency. Type of business entity provided good explanation of lower results of joint- stock companies (banks 4, 8, 9, 11, 16,17) compared to PJSC in all categories but “2. Effective Communication & People Engagement”.

After accounting for contextual predetermination of HR disclosure, we revealed only two categories that predetermined difference between groups: “1. Business Planning & Continuous Improvement” and “4. Learning & Development”. Category “2. Effective Communication & People Engagement” provided banks with freedom for differentiation from competitors disregarding preference in frames of reference. The rest categories were highly predetermined by the institutional requirements: “3. Leadership & People Management” and “5. Human Resource Policies & Employee Wellbeing”.

Variance in quality of HR disclosure Table 5 provides descriptive statistics for HR disclosure quality, while Figure 4 illustrates quality of HR disclosure for each category and sub-category.

Disclosure quality of the banks favoring high-commitment work system was expectedly higher. Unexpectedly, quality of HR disclosure among banks that favor high-performance work system was lower than among banks that favor high-involvement work system only in two categories out of five, “1. Business Planning & Continuous Improvement” and “4. Learning and Development”. Adopters of high-performance work system also gained exceptionally high scores for “3.1. Talent management” due to information about performance assessment and leaders of the banks; and for “5.1. HRM system”, due to facts related to threats. These examples illustrated how striving to legitimacy diminishes difference between groups.

The most top scores gained four subcategories “1.1. Corporate strategy” and “1.2. HRM strategy”, because of the disclosed amount of employees and changes in staff aiming to improve operational efficiency; “3.2. Motivation”, due to disclosed payroll fund; and “4.2. Training and development”, due to the percentage of employees with higher education. These facts were required for disclosure by International Accounti ng Standards (IAS 19) and by Regulation on disclosure of information by issuers of equity securities, approved by the Central Bank of Russia (No. 454-P, issued on December 30, 2014). Revealed variance partly could be explained by the contextual factors: type of business entity for “1.2. HRM strategy”.

Sub-categories “1.1. Corporate strategy”, “3.1. Talent Management”, “4.2. Training and development” and “5.1. HRM System”, appeared the least useful for differentiation due to high similarity of scores (Figure 5).

Asymmetry of information increased value of the disclosed HR-related facts disregarding the group, due to difference in quality of HR disclosure in sub-categories “2.2. Employee engagement”, “4.1.Intern- ships and induction” and “5.2. CSR & Employee wellbeing” (Figure 6). Russian banks, including national banks, were on average more transparent in the categories “2. Communication & People Engagement” and “5. Human Resource Policies & Employee Wellbeing”, particularly in the sub-category “5.1. HR management system”.

Analysis of the content, extent and quality of HR disclosure showed that category “2. Effective Communication & People Engagement”, in particular the sub-category “2.2. Employee Engagement” was the least sophisticated by the institutional environment, providing freedom for differentiation. However, there were also ideational aspects behind this finding. Banks favoring highperformance work system with high ROA and ROE were more transperent on this category. Similar trend represented bank 1 and two banks favoring high-commitment work system. While for most banks favoring high- commitment work system and high-involvement work system, the association was the opposite. These examples illustrate how asymmetry of information increases value of the disclosed HR-related. Banks favoring high-performance work system utilize this category to support perception of their successful performance. While banks favoring high-commitment work system and high- involvement work system refer to this category to improve reputational risks associated with poorer performance.

Conclusion, Discussion and Research Limitations

The current research joins the debates on implicit frames of reference for voluntary HR disclosure. Such aspirational referent standards are specific source of patterns that help and limit firms in sharing their HR-related information.

There are at least two important managerial contributions of the research. Firstly, it illustrates specific patterns of disclosed HR-related information with different characteristics of firms. For example, we observed patterns of negative association of ROA with the disclosure on training and development and employee wellbeing policies. Theoretically, this association could be explained by the long-term focus of the subcategory attribute and short-term focus of the performance measurement. Besides, it could be a result of striving towards better impression: due to low performance indicators banks might want to create better impression [Kent, Zunker, 2013; Spence, 2002]. However, discourse analysis shows that such assosiation depends on the referent system, and it could be positive in case of preference to high-performance work system.

Second, the research provides examples of organizations that apply hybrid HR management approach combining the required referent standards with the preferred ones; or mimicking the lacking referent standard.

There are also three theoretical contributions. First, strategic HR management research domain offers four approaches to work systems: universalistic, contingent, configurational and contextual [Alcazar et al., 2005]. Reference to aspirational referent standards united positive features of all of them. The findings support expectations about the sufficiency of three aspirational work systems, which could be used additively [Lepak, Snell, 1999]. Holistic perspective on work systems overcame limitations of configurational and contingent approaches, moving attention from HR practices to HR philosophy [Jackson, Schuler, Jiang, 2014]. This effect was achieved by distinguishing the actual HR system from the aspirational one [Alvesson, 2013]. Contextual approach implies that institutional environment creates visible barriers for selecting the most suitable work system shifting to legitimate option [Suchman, 1995]. However, current empirical analysis challenges this perspective, suggesting that legitimate standard might be rather an excuse for revealing only part of the information. Big share of the observed banks adopted hybrid version of aspirational standards, consisting of high-performance work system and one or two additional alternatives. These findings support existing suggestion that companies may favor one work system, but combine several of them [Lepak, Snell, 1999] or blend all of them at once [Gonzalez, Ta- corante, 2004]. However, it revealed an additional reason behind such hybridization -- legitimacy. Revealed hybridization highlighted possible bias of attribution, when researchers refer to only quantitative or only qualitative methods. Discursive level of analysis revealed the application of the uncommon words to the attributed referent systems. It could be explained by low cognitive institualization [Suchman, 1995] of two out of three work systems and thus, lower awareness of the expected linguistic trends. It could also be a result of the corresponding consulting and auditing services of the side firms with different referent systems. Nevertheless, despite the mismatch in titles, the meaning behind the applied words varied according to expectations, marked in the Table 1. This observation supported the methodological decision to code for meaning rather than words. It also warns against quantitative methods based on counting exact terms.

Second, discourse-analytical perspective on work systems helped to decode actual contextual priorities in HR management, supporting debates around measuring and reporting success in HR management [Guest, 2011]. Any organization would benefit from all three strategic objectives to stay healthy [MacIntosh, MacLean, Burns, 2007]. The first one is the exposed evidence of health -- current performance, on the individual level associated with the employees' productivity. It suits high-performance work system. The second one are potential characteristics to stay healthy in the future -- rare and valuable organizational competencies and resources, requiring employees' commitment as a way to protect investments into human capital. They suit high-commitment work system. The third one is resilience -- ability to adapt quickly to contextual changes, necessitating employees' involvement. It suits high-involvement work system. By maturation of institutional requirements, regulating authorities strive to improve the situation in the industry. However, they actually limit freedom of choice, diminishing level of banks' health. Moreover, institutional environment not only motivates companies mimicking each other, but also unintentionally pretend to be adopters of an alien work system. As a result, banks might confuse readership with controversial signals, like the example with bank 17. It refered to language and values common for high-commitment work system illustrating details regarding employees' education and special value of HR for the corporate success. The reason for such rhetoric could be a result of being a subsidiary bank of a large European financial group, due to location of the bank's head office in Europe -- different institutional setting. Another example was the lower level of HR disclosure by certain banks preferring high-commitment work system. The reason could be -- underestimation of the above mentioned transformative power of such reports, accompanied with the high costs and perceived as questionable impact of the voluntary reports on the stakeholders' opinion [Brown, De Jong, Lessidrenska, 2009].

Third, the research explored contextual specificity of the universal HR referent systems. Preference of a particular referent system caused significant difference in the content, extent and quality of HR disclosure. Nevertheless, such variety corresponded to overall trends in strategic HR management research domain [Ingham, 2007; Lepak, Snell, 1999; Monks et al., 2017]. Revealed hybridization of work systems and limited freedom of choice restricted group-based comparing of HR disclosure in the selected context, supporting only expectations regarding asymmetry and legitimacy of information. Banks favoring high-commitment work system were indeed more transparent, possibly because of being more protected from mimicking. However, all of the observed banks also adopted high-performance work system. Analysis of the content suggested that for organizations in Russia to be successful, they should start with the highperformance work system as the basement for their survival. In addition, they can adopt either high-commitment work system or high-involvement work system, or both, based on their strategy: innovativeness and access to valuable, rare, imperfectly imitable and non-substitutable resources. Legitimacy indeed decreased value of HR disclosure , due to similarity in quality, extent and content of disclosure of items in the sub-categories controlled by the authorities: “1.2. HR management strategy”; “3.2. Motivation”; “4.2. Training & development”. Asymmetry of information indeed increased value of HR disclosure, as in category “2. Effective Communication & People Engagement”. At the same time the study suggests valuable topic for a further research -- discursiveness of the concepts related to engagement.

Our study has important limitations. Important, the results should be generalized to other contexts with caution. We revealed several characteristics specific to the selected context of banks operatig in Russia. They included hybridization of work systems, limited freedom of choice due to high level of institutional saturation for highperformance work system, institutional gaps for high-involvement work system, and limiting accessibility of resources required for high-commitment work system. Further, distinguishing feature was banks' interest in corporate volunteering as part of HR managers' tasks along with the managing corporate holidays for employees, their families and communities.

We also had the small sample of only 18 observations. Further studies may increase the sample size and explore banks above the top 100. However, the previous study suggested it would increase representatives of banks, favoring high-performance work system and decrease reliability of the data [Bordunos, Kosheleva, 2015]. Adding to the sample reports of the same banks from other periods or countries could add bias to the discourse analysis due to discursiveness of related concepts. Resulted sample size restricted the application of more widely used methods of data interpretation, as regression analysis. But increase in the sample may deteriorate quality of the discourse-analytical research. Further, annual reports are not the only possible source of HR-related facts. Other valuable sources are codes of ethics, corporate strategy documents, sustainability reports, corporate career page on the bank's website or on the open career web-sites, etc. Moreover, annual reports are too general, as they aim at the common overview of the banks' performance; and they face certain limitations and requirements, which are not necessary for the mentioned sources.
