TI - Manager Competencies in The Area of Human Resources Risk Management
AB - 
	Background. Managing organisations in turbulent environments requires high quality competencies. In the knowledge economy, of all managerial skills, the role of human resources risk management skills is clearly growing. The reason is that each stage of human resource management pursued by managers may serve as a potential source of risk related to the need to take personnel-related decisions. Human resources risk is an inherent part of company operations, whereas the social sub-system is an indispensable, key factor for the smooth running of business entities. Therefore, HR risk should be managed, as any other risk type.

	Research aims. The objective of this research was to carry out a diagnosis of manager competencies in the area of human resources risk management.

	Methodology. The article was based on the analysis of literature and a diagnostic survey using a questionnaire survey.

	Key findings. On the basis of the research conducted with the application of a diagnostic  survey, it was concluded that although managers had a significant potential for the management of this specific risk type, it was not used to a full extent in all of the analysed organisations. Furthermore, the analysis showed that a barrier limiting effective human resources risk management oriented at generating an added value was created by negative attitudes, such as perceiving human resources risk mainly as a threat and striving to avoid it.
