Abstract

Purpose

The purpose of this paper is to describe the role of human resource management (HRM) in Romania.

Design/methodology/approach

The paper describes the latest changes and their reflections in research by analysing data collected from an inquiry amongst 558 company managers. The attitudes and facts in HRM are identified, taking into account the characteristics of the firm. Additionally, the HR problems encountered by the managers, the training and consultancy needs and experience of the firms, and the academic background of the experts, are identified. Finally, some trends in HRM politics are revealed.

Findings

The outcomes sustain the conclusion that modern HRM in Romania registered an encouraging start after the communist period, but it is still facing important challenges.

Originality/value

The paper offers a sketchy picture of the HRM situation in Romania.
