Abstract

This study examines the relationship between human resources and organizational culture in the context of human resource management, analyzing the reliability of the instruments used, the normality of the data and the relationships between the different variables. The role of Human Resources (HR) in shaping and maintaining organizational culture is essential. This paper highlights the multifaceted impact of HR roles on organizational culture, emphasizing the strategic integration of HR practices with the organization's values and objectives. HR functions such as recruitment, training and development, performance management, employee engagement, communication, recognition, change management and leadership model play a critical role in fostering a cohesive and productive organizational culture. For this study, the data collected in the city of Tirana from questionnaires with the participation of 111 employees were analyzed. Through the use of questionnaires and measurement instruments, the reliability of the instruments was evaluated, where the Cronbach's Alpha coefficient was 0.936, suggesting a high level of reliability. Also, in the ANOVA analysis, it was observed that the role of human resources is very high in the influence of organizational culture. The results suggest that interventions in the field of human resources can improve the organizational culture and the fulfillment of the organization's objectives. This study provides an understanding of the influences of human resources and organizational culture and contributes to the development of human resource management policies at the organizational level.
