Identification of Personnel Management Components Applied in Social Enterprises in the Slovak Republic

Many research studies on personnel management are focused on commercial enterprises. This study seeks to understand the components of personnel management that are applied in social enterprises. The main aim of the study is to identify the components of personnel management used in social enterprises based on the obtained data and to propose possible solutions for the given enterprises in this area. The research used the qualitative method of a structured interview in social enterprises in the Slovak Republic; while evaluating the interview, a phenomenographic approach was employed, hence the answers were analyzed, then interpreted and a specific system was created in the obtained set of opinions and knowledge. A difference was assumed in the components of personnel management in social enterprises compared to ordinary commercial enterprises, especially in the components such as motivation, education and remuneration. The results of the research will contribute to the knowledge and proper implementation of the personnel components that are needed in social enterprises, which play a large role in their development and success.
