Human Resource Performance Assessment and Disparities Regarding Reward System - Are They Determinants of the Emigration Phenomena? The Case of Romania ? A View from the Top

The phenomenon of migration is widely spread throughout the world, as long as more and more individuals choose to work abroad in the idea of gaining a better payment. Also the process of globalization and the decreasing of demographic aspects manifest their influence upon the evolution of business environment generally. We also witness a general gap between men and women in terms of payment, a salary difference through the whole Europe, but also a general gap between the wage levels among countries. The paper proposes an analysis of the current situation regarding wage gaps in Romania, the research being developed in mainly a qualitative one and the results are analyzed in accordance to the data provided by official institutions. Often, the way managers perceive aspects of organizational performance in general and HR performance differs from the results reflected by the economic and financial indicators. Therefore, it becomes interesting to perform a comparison of the results expressed in official reports, through a content analysis, but also by conducting own surveys.
