Research object is the decision process of domestic industrial enterprises’ personnel potential. Research aim is the theoretical ground and the subsequent development of scientific-methodical recommendations in relation to conducting of the personnel restructuring and diagnostics of personnel potential of industrial enterprise. Research methods are logical generalization, statistical grouping, questionnaire design, expert judgments, ranging, mathematical logic device, Gauss’ the least quadratic deviates for estimation of the approximating approaching of continuous functions. Theoretical result is improvement of theoretical bases of personnel policy and restructuring of industrial enterprises. Practical result is introduction the procedure of personnel potential’s diagnosing, the methodical recommendations in relation to conducting of the personnel restructuring and estimation of personnel reformations in enterprises’ activity.
