“…In terms of age, significant differences appear in the case of women up to 30 years old (opportunity for climbing the corporate ladder for single women), in the case of men aged 40 and 50 (this is the age for men to build the career) and in the case of women aged up to 50 (their children adult and women can build their career). Similar to our findings, Hitka et al (2018Hitka et al ( , 2021 show a sig-nificant correlation between age, gender, education and motivation factors relating to career aspiration.…”

The aim of the paper was to define the effect of the pandemic on employee motivation. Following the questionnaires, the level of motivation in agricultural and forestry organizations before the COVID-19 pandemic in the years 2018–2019 and after the crisis in the years 2020–2021 was defined. The hypotheses were tested using the variance analysis with interactions. The analysed field (financial, social, work, and career-related) was presented by the dependent variable. The categorical independent variables were used to describe the age, gender, and the time before or after the COVID-19 pandemic. A reduction in the level of the requirements in all areas of motivation in terms of age and gender is the result of the study. The needs and requirements of the employees of agricultural and forestry organizations are reduced. The order of importance of the groups stays almost the same. The finding that the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic has, besides others, effect on human resource management, especially on employee motivation, is considered the main contribution of the study. The results of the study result in enhancing the knowledge about economic development through human resource management at the time of the health crisis caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.

“…Trading enterprises use personnel controlling to a lower extent compared to manufacturing enterprises and service enterprises. According to the authors (Hitka et al, 2007(Hitka et al, , 2018, employees must be adequately motivated and willing to work for the enterprise, as large enterprises do not prefer a family atmosphere as in the case of small enterprises. The results showed that large enterprises are often more advanced in thinking and understanding the use of controlling and its individual subsystems.…”

“…The reason is the lack of interest of Slovak enterprises in this part of controlling. As the authors agree (Sedliačiková et al, 2012(Sedliačiková et al, , 2019Hitka et al, 2018;Osmanagić-Bedenik, 2015), personnel controlling is part of cost controlling, where it can be included.…”

The economic crisis triggered by the COVID-19 pandemic suggests that enterprises should manage their business in the wider system of public, social and environmental relations. Sustainable socially responsible business is becoming a lifeline for enterprises, they need to make the most effective decisions about the future direction. This can be achieved by interconnection of sustainable socially responsible business and controlling. Following the empirical survey research carried out using 151 Slovak enterprises the maturity of enterprises concerning the use of controlling and its financial, investment, cost, quality and personnel controlling subsystems was defined. Fisher’s f-test was used for Three-factor analysis of variance questions. The results achieved in the research showing significant differences between analyzed categories of enterprises in terms of size and their subject of business. Based on the analyses of the secondary sources and on results of the research, a framework concept of the structure of corporate controlling for Slovak enterprises was proposed which represents an innovative sustainable business model in practice, the application of which in practice will be a prerequisite for the growth of performance and financial health of enterprises.

“…It was found that the differentiation of profitability of enterprises in section H in individual voivodeships depends mainly on financial management. Operational management affects this differentiation only in terms of sales profitability decisions (Hitka et al, 2018). The tax ordinance had no major impact on the changes in the ROE differences.…”

The main purpose of the research is to identify differences in the factors determining changes in the return on capital (ROE) of transport and warehouse enterprises in individual voivodeships in Poland. The research used the ROE decomposition method which was justified by mathematical aspects. It paid attention on the decomposition of relative differences shaping the changes in this specific indicator. The substantive basis is the modified 5-factor Du Pont model. This method allowed for analysing relative changes in three decision areas. These areas encompass operational, financial, and tax management. The findings confirmed that the differences in individual voivodeships compared to the entire section H in Poland result mainly from financial management. However, the examined differentiation was not dependent on tax management. The presented research results can represent the basis for the strategy of corporate management in section H in positioning against competitive enterprises in Poland. The research also allows for a macroeconomic analysis of the phenomena occurring in the transport as well as warehousing sector, especially in terms of changes in their profitability.
