Selected Factors Influencing Employee Work Performance in Enterprises

Summary/Abstract: The purpose of the research paper is to assess the approaches to appraisal of employee work performance in enterprises. The empirical research in the questionnaire survey focused on the factors influencing employee work performance. The research was conducted in the second half-year 2022 on the sample of 260 respondents from enterprises operating in Slovakia. Two hypotheses were established and a research model was created. Methods used in the paper include: analysis, questionnaire survey, and synthesis. To evaluate the questionnaire survey and verify hypotheses, contingency tables, descriptive statistics methods, correlation, and regression were applied. Although the results of statistical verification of hypotheses did not prove the existence of statistically significant relationship, in one case there were 8 out of 18 relationships; thus there is some relationship. Results indicate which factors are important in companies in achieving employee work performance.The statistical verification of hypotheses by correlation and the regression model proved the influence of the business sector on employee work performance appraisal (eight significant relationships). Further research is necessary for the generalisation in this area.The importance of the company’s most important asset, i.e. human capital is corroborated by means of statistical methods used in the paper. Moreover, the importance of structural capital is emphasized. The originality of the paper is in a creative application of statistical methods as well as in establishing five features characteristic of the approach to work performance in Slovakia’s enterprises.
