The aim of the paper is to identify and evaluate the indications of general digitization in SMEs and determine the critical factors of SME digitization at the present time while focusing on the management of small and medium-sized enterprises. The structure of the sample is based on a distributed questionnaire. The verdicts confirming or rejecting hypotheses were based on research questions, formulated hypotheses, and statistical evaluations using MS Excel and R-Commander software, and these statements were further supported by the decision on validity or invalidity of a hypothesis in the whole population. Research has shown that although there is a strong linear relationship between the growth of digitization and the importance of digitization for enterprises, the current requirements for digitization of human resources management activities in SMEs are higher than businesses are able to implement in practice, so the digitization in SMEs is lagging behind. The main reason is that small businesses do not generate sufficient financial returns to invest in comprehensive restructuring of enterprise systems and structures, thus digitizing most of their departments. Another reason is the smaller number of employees in those businesses where digitization as such would not pay off now. However, SMEs often follow the path of partial digitization, especially in human resources management which is supported by the fact that SMEs very often implement at least a basic human resources management information system, namely this system is used in more than 60% of SMEs.

Celem artykułu jest identyfikacja i ocena przejawów ogólnej cyfryzacji w MSP oraz określenie krytycznych czynników cyfryzacji MSP w chwili obecnej, skupiając się na zarządzaniu małymi i średnimi przedsiębiorstwami. Struktura próby oparta jest na kwestionariuszu rozproszonym. Werdykty potwierdzające lub odrzucające hipotezy oparto na pytaniach badawczych, sformułowanych hipotezach i ocenach statystycznych przy użyciu programu MS Excel i R-Commander, a twierdzenia te zostały dodatkowo poparte decyzją o słuszności lub nieważności hipotezy w całej populacji. Badania wykazały, że chociaż istnieje silna liniowa zależność między wzrostem cyfryzacji a znaczeniem cyfryzacji dla przedsiębiorstw, obecne wymagania dotyczące cyfryzacji działań z zakresu zarządzania zasobami ludzkimi w MŚP są wyższe niż przedsiębiorstwa są w stanie zrealizować w praktyce, więc cyfryzacja w MŚP pozostaje w tyle. Głównym powodem jest to, że małe firmy nie generują wystarczających zwrotów finansowych, aby inwestować w kompleksową restrukturyzację systemów i struktur przedsiębiorstwa, a tym samym cyfryzując większość swoich działów. . Innym powodem jest mniejsza liczba pracowników w tych firmach, w których cyfryzacja jako taka by się teraz nie opłacała. Jednak MŚP często podążają ścieżką częściowej cyfryzacji, zwłaszcza w zakresie zarządzania zasobami ludzkimi, o czym świadczy fakt, że MŚP bardzo często wdrażają co najmniej podstawowy system informacji o zarządzaniu zasobami ludzkimi, a mianowicie system ten jest używany w ponad 60% MŚP.
