THE IMPORTANCE OF HUMAN RESOURCES POLICIES FOR BUSINESS SUCCESS: EXAMPLE OF THE ICI1 FIRST 30

Abstract

It will not be an exaggeration to say that the most important element in business success is human resources. In particular, large businesses need to implement consistent human resources policies for long-term success and competitiveness. The aim of this study is to understand and interpret what kind of human resources policies are applied in businesses that have proven to be successful in terms of sales from production. It is natural to think that the share of these policies in business success is great. Qualitative analysis method was chosen as the method in the study. Each year, the Istanbul Industrial Chamber determines the top 500 operations for sales. The first 30 enterprises in these designated enterprises have been systematically categorized, interpreted and evaluated the policy types by considering the human resources policies and subjecting them to qualitative analysis. The first 500 enterprises producing goods selected by Istanbul Industrial Chamber were taken as universes, and the first 30 enterprises in this first 500 were taken as samples. The lack of the ability to test whether the human resources policies declared on the websites of the enterprises in this study are actually implemented within the enterprise is a limitation. It is expected that this study will shed light on academicians working on human resource issues.
