Year: 2026
Type: article
Abstract: This research analyzes human resource management from an organizational sustainability perspective, drawing on responsible business practices and recognizing competitiveness as a key factor for achieving strategic planning with quality and profitability. The objective was to develop an institutional competency profile aligned with the principles of organizational development and sustainability. A descriptive, exploratory, mixed-methods study was conducted using documentary analysis, the nominal group technique, and the Ranking Matrix to develop the competency profile, prioritize and rank competencies, and assess expert judgments. The study proposes implementing a competency-based profile to support sustainable human resource management within Cuba’s National Regulatory Authorities (NRAs), specifically the Center for State Control of Medicines, Medical Equipment and Devices (CECMED). Human resource management plays a fundamental role in fostering knowledge, innovation, and organizational sustainability in a post-COVID-19 environment, where communicative competencies, digital skills, and strategies focused on employee well-being prove essential for responding to emerging demands and improving institutional quality. The research identifies competency gaps, strengthens organizational capabilities, and supports efficient and sustainable regulatory management in the healthcare sector through a sustainability-oriented approach.
