Abstract

In the Central and Eastern European (CEE) countries within the framework of the previous economic
system, there were only traces of the features of modern human resource management (HRM). Since the political and
economic changes, major transformation in the HRM practice has occurred, resulting in a development of the
organizational position, role and practices of HR activity in the Central and Eastern European countries.
The aim of our benchmark study is to compare the HRM practice of the CEE region with the other European countries
and with the global HRM trends. The benchmarking study may show the region-specific characteristics of HRM
practice in the CEE region. The comparison of specific HR variables (availability of HR departments and HR services,
strategic importance of HR functions, budget of training and development, influences of Trade Unions) will be made
based on the data of Cranet international research results from 2004 to 2016.
