Abstract: The aim of the paper is to reconstruct the category of “information quality” and to attempt answering the question: how are employee’s attitudes towards organi-sational change related to the quality of information concerning that process in the context of enterprises’ competitiveness? The secondary data analysis method – covering theoretical literature and numerous empirical studies results – is ap-plied to attain the above-mentioned research aims. The results of conducted anal-ysis are presented in the following order. Firstly, the category of ‘information quality’ is conceptualised, the factors which influence the information quality are identified and the authors’ scheme for analysing the information quality is pro-posed. Secondly, the view on employees’ attitudes towards organisational change is presented. Thirdly, the conditions of the information transmission in the organ-isational change process are analysed. Further, conceptual remarks on the influ-ence of information quality on attitudes towards organisational change are pre-sented on the background of previous research results. Since the idea of incorpo-rating the concept of information quality in the theoretical considerations and empirical models in the area of research on attitudes towards organisational change seems to be promising, the authors propose the directions of further re-search in the final part of the paper.
