Abstract
EN Purpose: The main objective of the research conducted was to determine the attractiveness of the Polish Army as an employer in Poland, to identify the independent variables determining the attractiveness of the military, and to identify what factors increase and decrease the attractiveness of the military as an employer. Design/methodology/approach: In order to verify the set research hypotheses, an empirical study was conducted in December 2020 using a diagnostic survey method (CAWI technique) including a sample of 384 respondents – residents of Poland. The results of the survey were subjected to statistical analysis using the IBM SPSS Statistics 23 package. Kruskal-Wallis, U-Mann-Whitney and χ2 tests were performed. Findings: The result of the research was the identification of the attractiveness of the military as an employer, and to distinguish factors that increase and decrease attractiveness. Research limitations/implications: The attractiveness of the military as an employer in the opinion of Poles (external attractiveness) was analysed, while the internal attractiveness of the military was not studied. Practical implications: The results of the obtained research can be used by the military in campaigns promoting military service. They can also inspire a deeper analysis of the determinants of attractiveness, which will slowly lead to a more complete understanding of HR indicators. Originality/value: The article presents the results of statistical analyses aimed at identifying static relationships. The presented results may inspire the implementation of research in an international environment, which would allow further exploration of factors determining the attractiveness of the military as an employer, not only in Poland.
