Abstract: The aim of this article was to provide empirical evidence which to support the unanimously accepted idea in the literature dedicated to human resources study, i.e. there is a direct connection between the intensity of training in organizations and the productivity of human resources. In the absence of statistical data about the training in local companies, we collected primary data from a balanced sample of companies in South-West Oltenia region in Romania, following the administration of a complex-structured questionnaire (sent out between March and June 2015). The data obtained covers the period 2012-2014 and confirms the proposed hypothesis, as follows: 1) the analyzed companies which invested in human resources training had a higher productivity compared to those which did not invest at all in this direction; 2) there is a direct correlation between the number of training hours delivered every year by a company and the employees’ further performance, determined both through objective and perception measurements.
