This situation reveals the importance of human resources management in the civil aviation sector. The fact that personnel working in the civil aviation sector have the opportunity to work worldwide, provided they meet certain conditions, provides freedom of movement for these employees. Especially in developed countries, as a result of the decrease in the young population and the tendency to leave jobs that require intense physical strength and have relatively low wages to immigrants, it has become possible to see immigrant workers in most of the business lines. Strategic human resources planning is extremely important to keep this situation under control and to train human resources in every field that may be needed in the civil aviation industry in the future. An understanding of human resources management, which specializes in the field of civil aviation, knows the needs and deficiencies of this field, and guides decision makers by offering the right solution suggestions, is deemed essential. © 2024, IGI Global.
