Comparison of the Facility Manager Job Position in Visegrad Group Countries

摘要

Facility management can create the potential of a competitive advantage in the form of cost savings and increased time for managing core business activities. One of the successful requirements for the implementation and use of this coordinated management approach is the creation of the facility manager's job position. The aim of this article is to define the theoretical basis of facility management with a presentation of the comparison of the job description definition and requirements of the facility manager job position in Visegrad Group countries. Although the requirements for the job position are highly dependent on the type and size of the enterprise, this article presents a proposal of criteria by which the facility manager's position could be supplemented in conditions of small and medium-sized Slovak enterprises.
