Human resource risk assessment in selected hotels in the West Pomeranian Voivodeship

Abstract

The objective of the article is to assess human resource risk in selected hotels. A theoretical part of the study is a result of the use of the desk research method. An empirical part includes the results of interviews with human resource managers conducted in five hotels located in the West Pomeranian Voivodeship and the assessment of the human resource risk level in the analyzed hotels. Respondents assessed two elements: the probability of occurring risk events and their impact on a hotel. The human resource risk level is a product of these two parameters expressed in points. Due to a limited number of research entities, the article involves the analysis of the case study. Therefore, the research findings cannot be generalized with regard to the whole industry. However, they can serve as the basis for a discussion on the phenomenon of human resource risk in the hotel industry and its impact on work efficiency, thus the functioning of the whole organization.
