Resumen

La importancia que en los últimos años se ha otorgado a los recursos humanos como parte fundamental de la excelencia empresarial ha supuesto en muchos casos una mejora de las condiciones laborales tendentes a conseguir el compromiso de los trabajadores. Aunque no todos disfrutan del mismo tipo de relación de empleo, ya sea porque a la empresa no le interese desde un punto de vista de eficiencia económica, porque aquéllos realicen aporta- ciones de diferente valor a la misma o simplemente consecuencia de distintos planteamien- tos directivos a la hora de gestionar los RRHH. En cualquier caso, pensamos que la direc- ción debe definir con claridad el tipo de relación laboral que quiere establecer con los traba- jadores, por un lado, como forma de mantener la coherencia entre las distintas prácticas de RRHH y de éstas con la estrategia empresarial, y por otro, al objeto de mandar un mensaje claro a los individuos para que desarrollen expectativas realistas y no vean frustrado su con- trato psicológico. Por todo ello pensamos que es fundamental contar con una clasificación de los diferentes tipos de relaciones de empleo y con tal fin hemos analizado las tipologías señaladas por diferentes autores desde diferentes ámbitos de estudio para tratar de sinteti- zarlas en una propuesta que recoja la esencia de todas ellas.
