The aim of this study: To determine the trajectory of improving human resource management as an element of operational management in the organization of primary health care. Methods. Within the framework of the study, a comparative analysis of statistical data on the provision of PHC doctors by regions for 2017-2019 was carried out according to the information system of the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Kazakhstan «Additional component of the per capita standard». Results. When analyzing the provision of health care organizations with general practitioners, district pediatricians, district therapists at the level of primary health care (PHC) in the republic, a dynamic decrease in the quantitative indicator of doctors providing PHC was revealed. And also noted a stable tension in the workload of a doctor in terms of the number of served (attached) population. Conclusions. Staff-oriented approaches, such as calculating the required number of staff or creating formulas and algorithms, provide only partial solutions. More comprehensive solutions are needed that will focus on effective multifactor human resource management. For the most effective use of human resources, health care organizations must expand a systems approach that takes into account organizational and institutional conditions

Transition period of the post-socialist countries and opening of their markets have led to the positive shift in understanding the role of employees in organizations and the importance of proper management of this specific resource. An important factor in spreading modern principles of human resource management in transition countries is the arrival of foreign companies on their market. In that context, this paper focuses on the relationship between the ownership structure of the organisation and the level of development of the core activities of human resource management. The subject of the empirical research was companies which operate on the territory of the Republic of Srpska, and employ more than 200 employees. Empirical data were collected by using questionnaire, and some of them were generated from the official websites of the observed companies. Testing of hypothesis was performed with the Analysis of Variance. The research results show that in the foreign-ownedcompanies there is a statistically significant difference in the level of development ofhuman resources management, compared to the state-owned and national privatecompanies. On the other hand, among foreign-owned companies, which differ in thecountry of origin of the majority owner and the number of years in business in thedomestic (BiH/RS) market, there is no statistically significant difference in the levelof development of basic activities of human resource management.

Telemedicine requires a new type of worker: the health care teleworker. Nevertheless, physicians remain wary of adopting telemedicine. This work examines the sources of the resistance to incorporating telemedicine. We adopt a focus centering on the difficulties that human factors have in accepting the practice of telemedicine. Employees’ resistance to change comes mainly from the inertia that perpetuates traditional routines and methods of working. The success of telemedicine projects will be determined by these human factors as well as by an adequate use of information technology and an appropriate organizational management. This work also offers some practical implications in human resource management for managers of telemedicine projects to consider.
