GENDER ASPECT OF A SYSTEMATIC APPROACH TO SOCIALLY ORIENTED HR MANAGEMENT: PROSPECTS FOR MANAGING THE DEVELOPMENT OF ENTERPRISES UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF HUMAN CAPITAL LOSS
Abstract
The relevance of the study is explained by the sufficiency of domestic enterprises to provide the prospects for their development with high-quality human resources in a situation where the losses of human capital since the beginning of the war have created a shortage of supply on the labour market, in which the gender factor is also traced. It is important to note that the study of the impact of gender on the standard of living of an individual is a recurring theme in numerous research domains. The hypothesis is formalised by taking into account the following. The influence of personnel gender on the motives of professional behaviour can be useful when developing an enterprise development strategy under the influence of human capital risk. Furthermore, it can be useful when updating personnel policies in human resources management systems of human-oriented business. The objective of the present study was to explore the potential for enhancing the efficacy of a systemic approach to socially oriented HR management by leveraging gender-neutral and gender-oriented management initiatives. The investigation further sought to ascertain the viability of such a practice in the context of enterprise development in the face of human capital loss. The research methods employed included content analysis of professional economic literature, synthesis of postulates and paradigms of gender-neutral and gender-sensitive management, and systematization and generalisation of proposals for incorporating the gender aspect into the system of socio-economic personnel management. The research yielded several key findings. Firstly, the areas of sensitivity of the gender factor for various elements of the organisational management system were identified and specified. Secondly, the manifestation of the gender factor in management organisations was generalised. Thirdly, the prospects of socio-economic HR management were developed for managing the development of enterprises under the threat of loss of human capital. Finally, the stages of forming an employer brand on the basis of gender-neutral management were identified and described. The practical value of the proposals in this research lies in the possibility of their integration into the personnel policy of enterprises and personnel development strategies of modern companies that strive to improve their business reputation and create an image of a socially-oriented business that has a sustainable economic effect.
