– an important new source of data on human resource management
(HRM) in Europe. Places project in context of comparable sources and in
relation to European framework. National data are collected by an annual
survey of employing organisations to monitor over time the impact of the

towards “Strategic HRM”. Uses a functional definition of
HRM. A postal questionnaire covers: HR departments and strategy;
recruitment policies; pay and benefits policies; training policies and
evaluation; contract and working hours flexibility; industrial
relations; response to the SEM. Deals with problems of compatability of
data across countries and languages, translation, industrial
classification, sample size and distribution responses.
