On 20 January 2020, the Transport Research Centre, committed itself to the principles enshrined in the European Charter for Researchers and the Code of Conduct for the Recruitment of Researchers. On 6 September 2021, we received the HR Award, which the European Commission grants to research institutions that implement and continuously develop the HRS4R (Human Resources Strategy for Researchers) strategy.
Through a series of follow-up action plans, we are continuously implementing measures aimed at creating a high-quality, transparent and open working environment for researchers and other staff. We regularly assess the progress made, respond to the institution’s new needs and the requirements of the European Union, and develop our human resources policy in line with the HRS4R principles.
We are currently finalising the evaluation of the second action plan and preparing a new action plan, which will build on the measures implemented to date and set out further objectives for the development of personnel policy, working conditions, recruitment, professional development and support for research careers. Our aim is to continue to uphold the principles of the European Charter for Researchers and to contribute to the creation of an attractive working environment that meets European standards.
Statistics valid as at 31 December 2025.

The activities of the working group and the implementation of individual phases are supervised by the institution's management, which consists of the directors of research divisions and support departments.
The achievement of the HR Award was one of the key activities of the project HR Award and Technology Transfer at CDV (HRATT, reg. no. CZ.02.2.69/0.0/0.0/18_054/0014641), implemented under the OP VVV call for proposals ‘Capacity Building for Research and Development II’. The project ran from 1 January 2020 to 30 June 2023.
The project focused on improving the quality of the institution’s human resources management, thereby enabling the Transport Research Centre to be presented as an advanced and modern research institution. Activities were aimed at supporting the institution’s strategic and human resources management, developing international cooperation, and raising awareness of and interest in research activities among selected target groups.
