Abstract

The analysis considers the similarities and differences of strategic human resource practices at country level in the European Union and seeks to assess the level of convergence of Romanian practices to the European ones. The purpose of the study is to calculate the closeness of Romania to one of the European Human Resource Management clusters previously identified by M. Ingjatovic and I. Svetlik considering practices as strategy formalization, involvement of human resource department in developing the organizational strategy and devolution of human resource decisions to line management. Cluster analysis was used, considering that is one of the complex methods in systematic research and it is useful in multidimensional analysis where significant similar cases are looked for. The results show that Romania is closer to the Peripheral cluster with the management-focused model of medium intensity HRM and Central Southern cluster with the HRM model of low intensity.Keywords: human resource management clusters; convergence; human resource strategic practices; Romanian HRM;Â
