Abstract:
The current economical background raises the challenge for an enhanced level of performance among
the companies. Various studies present in the specialised literature have proven that the human resources
management practices deployed by the companies have a positive influence on the organizational level of
performance. These practices were identified as high performance work practices.
This paper intends to investigate the presence of the high performance working practices in case of
Romanian companies, using the results provided by an empirical study. The analysis aimed to establish the level
of development of such practices in the studied organizations. Another objective was to determine the potential
correlation between these practices and the size/specific economic sector of the studied companies.
