A new approach for industrial cluster performance and human resources management: based on survey

Industrial clusters (IC) are groups of inter-related industries which drive wealth creation in a region, primarily through the production and export of goods and services. The use of clusters as a descriptive tool for regional economic relationships provides a richer, more meaningful representation of local industry drivers and regional dynamics than do traditional methods. On the other hand, one of the fundamental part of every industry such as IC is human resources managements (HRM). Manpower are key capital of organizations and can improve performance too. Although recent researches have been developed the concept of IC but they have not considered aspect of human resources on clusters performance. So, the purpose of this article is to examine the effect of special aspect of human resource management on IC. Data were collected based on interview and questionnaire with clusters development agent (CDA), managers of industrial clusters and labors. We used correlation matrix to test hypothesis. Results indicated that it is necessary for firms to develop the skill and training of human resources and labors of industrial clusters and it will affect total performance of IC.
