Based on the application of the systemic method and elements of content analysis, the article shows that in the presence of a wide array of foreign and domestic studies that reveal theoretical, methodological and organizational and practical aspects of the activities of personnel offices as subjects of personnel management in organizations in separate areas, it can be stated that there are several problems and shortcomings in the degree of development of this research topic. The lack of sufficient theoretical-methodological and organizational-methodological development of the problems of the activities of personnel services as subjects of personnel management in organizations leads to difficulties in creating a scientifically sound model of a modern personnel service, taking into account the specifics of Ukrainian organizations, developing scientific tools for studying the practice of personnel service activities and developing specific recommendations for optimizing its activities. The current trends in the practical work of personnel offices are analyzed and the need for a larger-scale integration of the analysis of real practice into the process of developing the theory of organization and functioning of personnel service at the present stage is substantiated.
