Abstract: In order to highlight how managers embody the employer function, beyond their legal status, this article proposes to study employer's ability, which is understood as the manager's ability to be an employer. Employer's ability, which is not well researched in academic literature, should be investigated, in particular because it helps to identify the tension that may exist between the legal status of an employer—defined by the rights and obligations owed to the employee—and his role—which is more dependent on its ongoing management. However, this role of employer can sometimes be difficult to carry out, especially by chairpersons of small associations, whose position as employer may conflict with that of a volunteer. Once we have defined the basis for employer'sability, we approach it from HR practices and the various tasks that make up its scope of activity. This study on small associations, highlights a continuum of three employer's ability configurations, each corresponding to an evolutionary perception of the HR function by the leader, the employee and the association's office. By contributing to the field of HRM and the area of the social economy, this research offers managerial implications and opens up research opportunities that will be discussed.
