Abstract

This paper deals with the management of human resources in the public sector. In order to achieve the set objective, the main characteristic elements of human resources management in the public sector that differentiate it from the private sector are presented. Thus, the contribution of several researchers who analysed different aspects of human resource management in the public sector is highlighted. Human resource management in the public sector can only be better understood by comparing it with that practiced in the private sector. The objectives of human resources management in the public and private sectors are different, therefore; the interpretation of some of its elements has a distinctive character, which leads to highlighting the distinctive character. Considering that human resource management directly impacts the public organization's performance, we analysed its connection with performance management.
