Abstract

Management and career development of employees is a complex segment of human resources management influenced by a variety of factors. Career involves the individual’s development and integration into the organization, as well as development in tandem with the organization’s growth. Career development and management can be seen as long-term motivation. It is the responsibility of the human resources management of a given organization to ensure all necessary conditions are met and to oversee the career development of employees as well as to retain and acquire the best from the workforce. Based on the aforementioned facts, the authors conducted a survey where a random sample of the working population of the city of Koprivnica was selected. The empirical research focused on exploring personal attitudes, perceptions, and experiences of the workforce in the city of Koprivnica, which is considered one of the less developed urban centers in the Republic of Croatia. Therefore, the research subject includes the analysis of the human resources management system and the ways in which employees’ careers are managed by their employers. This research aims to identify factors influencing employee career development and human resources management, as well as their impact on organizational performance. The survey results were analyzed using statistical methods such as non-parametric tests, descriptive statistics, and analysis of variance, with the application of the SPSS Statistics program. The general conclusion drawn from the conducted analysis is that certain weaknesses in the career management models of the respondents have been identified within their employers. There is a clear need for an in-depth restructuring of the resource management function and raising awareness of the importance of employees and careers for the organization.
