Popis: research is to examine the chancing human resources management practices due to the COVID-19 pandemic through the perspectives of bank managers. Case analysis was used as a research approach, and the COVID-19 period was recognized as a case due to its unique circumstances. Within the scope of this research, data were collected through semi-structured in-depth interviews with 12 participants working in state, private and participation banks operating in Konya.

It was found that the resulting uncertainties were responded to by using flexibility and more digitalized applications.
