Resum:
Our investigation focuses its attention in how the human resources in the certified hotel companies are managed and how the personnel who serve in them are involved. Concretely, in what and how the certified hotel companies differ of which are not it, and if this difference is in the fact that the registered companies are characterized by to have created a labour atmosphere in which all their human resources feel part of the company, and do not see their stay in it like something momentary until finding something better.The final report of the investigation has been structured in four chapters. In the introduction the objectives of the investigation, the reasons of the election of the study object and the justification of this election are exposed.The importance of the human resources in the benefit of services is a key aspect in the management of the quality applied to the hotel industry. Industry that has not been pioneer in the development and implementation of systems of quality compared with other sectors of the industry, nevertheless, we had information that there were hotel companies that had the quality certification. This information required to contrast if in these companies had been created the conditions of work that avoid the lack of motivation and facilitate the accomplishment of the work under the prism of the Total Quality.In chapter two the theoretical-methodological posing of the investigation is developed. A revision of the quality concept is made exposing itself the theoretical models most accepted in academic literature and also among the practitioners of this management type. The quality concept is had boarded from two points of view: the objective and the subjective one. The first denominated objective quality, it is associated to physical specifications of more or less easy quantification and that they allow a statistical control of quality. The second, denominated quality of service, it is from the comparison between the expectations and perceptions of the clients. Subsequently, we describe what the management of the total quality is and the evolution that has taken her. We also stand out the specific and generic principles that characterize this management and that they must be introduce in a quality system. Later, the relation between quality and human resources is developed emphasizing the evolution of this functional area. Once the hypotheses are characterized we expose the methodology that has been chosen for its contrast, with the objective to study the operation in the companies that they have implanted or not the Management of the Total Quality through the study of its practices and policies of human resources. In chapter three, the analysis of collected information in field work is made and that it has allowed us to confirm the hypotheses constructed with the object of explaining the relation between the management of human resources and the management of the quality, and that it constitutes the great challenge of this device organizational change that is the Management of the Total Quality and the paper that in this management has what we could today denominate the new Policies of Human Resources. Under this consideration we initiated our investigation, in other words, we express the question that we made ourselves to the beginning of the work. The answer that we elaborated in hypothesis form has been confirmed. All it is synthesized in chapter four, in where we expose the conclusions of the investigation.
