Abstract

¿Sirve de algo gestionar los recursos humanos en los ayuntamientos? En el momento de crisis actual, ¿está justificado el gasto en esta área? Aunque a nivel de empresa privada se ha estudiado ampliamente la inversión en gestión de recursos humanos, en el ámbito de la administración pública española la investigación es escasa. Para cubrir este hueco, este trabajo realiza un estudio sobre una muestra de 85 ayuntamientos españoles de más de 20.000 habitantes. Los análisis efectuados apoyan la idea de que efectivamente la adopción de ciertas prácticas de recursos humanos tiene un efecto positivo en los resultados de las corporaciones locales. De hecho, aunque hay prácticas que están muy reguladas por la normativa de la función pública se pueden gestionar de forma más eficiente sin colisionar con la legalidad vigente. / Is human resource management in local councils useful? In the current crisis, is the expenditure in this area justified? Although investment in human resources management has been widely studied at the private enterprise, research is scarce in the area of Spanish public administration. To fill this gap, this work carried out a study on a sample of 85 Spanish municipalities of more than 20,000 inhabitants. Analysis supports the idea that actually some practices of human resources have positive effect on the results of local corporations. In fact, although there are practices that are very regulated by the public service regulations you can manage more efficiently without colliding with the law in force.
