Staff competences for the position of accountant

Nowadays, an operating company is presented mainly by its results, good reputation and customer satisfaction. These aspects can be improved through competencies that are distributed among individual employees within the company. With competencies, employees know which issues within their job function they are supposed to address, and therefore there is no confusion in the company that would cause losses and poor quality outputs. The aim of this paper is to analyze and evaluate the key activities of accountants and to propose an optimal competency model that will help to make better use of accountants' activities. Based on the National Occupational Competency Framework, those competencies that are important to the functions of accountants will be evaluated.
