ENThis article examines the involvement of employees of the regional health-care institution in change management. When addressing health issues, individual health-care institutions seek to optimise activities and resources. Achieving results through change requires sacrificing the status quo, so in the face of the globalisation of management processes and an increasingly competitive environment, the main task is not the decision to accept changes or not, but the decision on how to involve employees in change, and to anticipate when and how to implement organisational changes. Research problem: how to involve employees in change management at the regional health-care institution. Aim of the study: after clarifying aspects of employee involvement in change management, and examining the current situation in the regional health-care institution, to make recommendations to strengthen employee involvement in the successful management of changes. Objectives of the research: to highlight aspects of employee involvement that are important for the management of organisational changes; to analyse employee perceptions of change management opportunities in the regional health-care institution; to identify barriers to change management in the regional health-care institution; to make recommendations on how to involve employees in change management in the regional health-care institution. Working methods: analysis of scientific literature, systematisation, generalisation. Quantitative study: the empirical data collected by interviewing regional health-care institution staff was processed using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS). The analysis of the results compares the percentage of data, the means, and the variance analysis; and the Cronbach’s alpha coefficient was used to assess the internal consistency of the questionnaire scale.The theoretical and empirical assumptions examined, and the empirical analysis presented, suggest that employee involvement in change management depends not only on financial resources but also to a large extent on available knowledge and experience, and employee initiative. The latter are encouraged by building a strong knowledge-sharing and organisational culture, based on principles of good leadership, supported by strong internal communication channels in the organisation: a social media network that should reach every employee, and thus maintain the level of awareness needed to effect change. This should be taken into account when making recommendations for involving employees in change management. [From the publication]
