The work of public services and officials is based on the fulfillment of the requirements of individuals and society, and is based on the promotion of state values. The work itself is defined by special laws adopted by the Government of the Republic of Croatia, but it is also harmonized with the legislation of the European Union. The rights and duties of officials are based on the vision, mission and promotion of values while simultaneously applying the code of ethics. Employment of employees in public services is determined by the Constitution of the Republic of Croatia, and opportunities are equal and transparent for all candidates. Vacancies are filled with candidates based on previous experience, level of education, and personal motivation for work. The Constitution of the Republic of Croatia, exact article number 44, defines the obligation to publish tenders on the official pages of the gazette (Narodne novine), by publishing conditions and tenders on the Internet and on the specific pages of the authorities that announce the tender. In addition to recruitment through tenders, it is possible to recruit public servants through internal advertisements. Human resources management is a strategic approach to all employees, and it is carried out by a competent, superior person with given authorities. The management itself depends on the companies or institutions in which it is carried out, and in the framework of state services, it is mostly focused on the efficiency, economy and motivation of employees to fulfill work tasks for the benefit of individuals and the public. As with any form of management, potential problems may arise when working within public services.
