Abstract:As internal vertical fit is becoming an increasingly more popular phenomenon to investigate, more and more is known about it. However, practically no research has been done towards internal vertical fit within the health care sector. As financing our health care system becomes a bigger problem each year, due to our ageing population, it would be interesting to do research regarding what the drivers of internal vertical fit are within this sector. By comparing various HRM policies and practices, an internal vertical fit could be established to be present. The more interesting question would then of course be, why (or why not)? This research is aimed at investigating what the drivers of internal vertical fit are and what the influence is of various stakeholders as top managers and line managers. It does so by interviewing both these top managers and line managers. In semi structured interviews, policies and practices (which are divided into three policy domains) are either identified as part of a control or commitment based HRM system. This allows this research to identify an internal vertical fit.
