Abstract

The assessment of employees’ competence is the most important and essential information for decision-making process of companies. As observations show, despite abundant stock of data and available competency assessment methods, managers receive few useful information needed for human resource management. In this study is proposed to use the informative entropy method, which measures the amount of information contained in particular competencies. The described method can be used for assessment of the competency resources possessed at the level of staff team. This method mainly allows to determine distribution of competence in the structure of the group, assess adjustment of real resource to needs, and to locate competency deficits.
