Key Findings 1/3


HR Strategy
Training, recruiting, specific HR logistics remain the main HR activities conducted by Romanian organizations in the 4th quarter, while losing
position as compared to Q3. There is noticeable a high increase of presence for: litigations/ compensations, consultancy for HR process and system
development in Q4 as compared to Q3.
As compared to the first 3 quarters of 2010, at the end of the year, the HR budget has significantly decreased, while HR people seem to be more

concerned to spend all the allocated budget.


Organizational Development
Even though almost the same percentage of organizations implemented a change management program in the 4th quarter as compared to the 3rd
one, less employees were involved in it. The main areas targeted by the change management projects that were implemented in Q4 were related to
departments organization.
The collaboration with external consultants for improving the organizational culture has increased in the past quarter, the organizations using the
external consultants services for organizing events, trainings and company value assimilation projects.
Learning and Development
The learning and development budget per employee remained quite constant throughout the quarters. The caution in spending the allocated
budget for learning and development remains an issue in this quarter too. While less coaching and mentoring sessions were made this quarter,
trainings (external and especially internal ones) and e-learning are increasing usage in the past three months.

Entry Level

Specialists

Middle Level

Senior/ Top Level

Training on the job is less used,


while e-learning, classical trainings
and coaching/ mentoring improve
position.

E-learning, classical trainings and


training on the job remain the main
development techniques used this
quarter. However it is noticeable a
decrease for using training on the
job, as compared to Q3.

Even though e-learning, classical


trainings and coaching/ mentoring
remain the most used learning
techniques, there is noticeable an
increase of usage for training on the job.

Coaching and mentoring are the


learning and development techniques
most used this quarter for senior/ top
level employees. Moreover, e-learning
was less used in the 4th quarter of 2010.

Key Findings 2/3


Recruitment and Selection
The number of Romanian organizations that have a recruitment plan is quite stable throughout the quarters (6 out of 10 companies have such a plan).
Nevertheless, the focus among the position recruited has changed in the 4th quarter of 2010 as compared to the other ones: HR people are showing a lower
intention on recruiting specialists, while the need for other seniority levels have a constant demand.
Entry Level

Specialists

Middle Level

Internal or
External
recruiting?

As compared to the previous quarter (Q3), the candidates


for these positions come more from internal recruitment.
This could be in high correlation with departments
reorganization activities that were conducted this quarter
and the need of re-qualifying employees.

A specific for this quarter is the HR specialists


orientation towards the human resources available in
their organization. This quarter the recruitment of
specialists is done more by turning to internal
resources as compared to other quarters.

An orientation towards the internal human


resources is also seen when looking for
eligible candidates for a middle level position
as compared to the previous quarter.
However, HR specialists are still using on a
high extent external recruiting.

Proportion of
eligible CVs

The percentage of eligible CVs for an entry level position


has decreased this quarter.

The CVs received by HR people for a specialist


position keep a high proportion of eligibility.

Recruitment
Costs

Choosing specialists is an important decision for HR


Due to a higher time period needed to evaluate CVs, the specialists, that spend a high time on electing the
recruitment costs for such a position have increased in the most suitable candidates. Therefore, the recruitment
4th quarter of 2010.
costs for such a position has increased in the past
period.

Due to a lower eligibility of CVs, the


recruitment costs for a middle level position
are increasing.

Recruitment
Sources

Internal recommendations, spontaneous applications and


CVs received through recruiting sites remain the main
sources used this quarter too, but meeting a decrease of
usage among organizations. Due to the high number of
CVs received in Q4 by HR specialists, they consider less
recruiting previous candidates.

Less HR specialists use spontaneous applications or


previous candidates for recruiting specialists. The
recruitment sites and internal recommendation are
the most used sources for finding candidates for this
position.

When seeking out candidates for a middle


level position, HR specialists used less head
hunting and recruiting sites in the 4th quarter
of 2010. Internal recommendations and
previous candidates increase usage this
quarter.

Criteria
considered
when recruiting

Though remaining the main criteria considered by HR


specialists, the candidates attitude is decreasing
throughout the quarters. A higher importance is given this
quarter to the candidates matching with the organization
culture and to his/ her communication skills.

The candidates technical skills are more seek out by


HR people in Q4 as compared to Q3. This criteria and
the candidates previous experience are the most
used ones. However, as compared to the previous
quarter, it is less important the candidates match with
the organization.

The candidates previous experience is by


far the most important criteria taken into
consideration when recruiting a middle level
position. The candidates matching with the
organizational culture and the candidates
communication skills were less considered in
Q4 as compared to Q3.

Page 5

The percentage of eligible CVs for a middle


level position is decreasing in the last
quarter.

Key Findings 3/3

Performance Management/ Compensations and Benefits


In order to retain employees, HR specialists were more oriented in the 4th quarter of 2010 on ensuring a pleasant work environment, trainings and
offering other financial benefits as compared to the 3rd quarter. Moreover, they used less the official recognition of employees in Q4.
Even though the number of organizations that allow their employees to work from home, remains pretty much the same as in Q3, this privilege is
applying to a higher proportion of the employees.
The number of organizations that give their employees the option of having a flexible schedule is slightly decreasing this quarter as compared to
Q3. However, the companies in which this concept is used, start to apply it to a higher proportion of their employees.

Legal and Industrial Events


Almost a quarter of organizations had a restructuring plan in the 4th quarter of 2010, the percentage remaining quite stable within the past
semester.
The number of disciplinary boards and work injuries in the 4th quarter of 2010 is slightly decreasing as compared to the one from the 3rd quarter of
the year. Moreover, the number of disciplinary boards follows as well a slight descending trend this quarter.
