Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to examine the impact of human resource management practices (HRMPs) on employee performance (EP). To achieve the aims of the study, a quantitative design based on using a questionnaire was distributed to a sample of 250 employees; only 205 employees responded to the questionnaire, 189 out of them were valid questionnaires. To check the association between HRMPs and employees performance, Pearson correlation statistical technique and multiple regression analysis were applied on the data collected. The study has found that HRMPs such as: recruiting and selection, training and development, performance appraisal, compensation and benefits, and employee career development have a positive impact on EP ranging from low to high impact. More specifically, out of these five HRMPs, only training and development and compensations and benefits have high significant positive impact on EP. The results of the study also reveal that 53 per cent of the changes on EP could be attributed to the combined effect of the predictor variables (HRMPs) listed earlier. Hence, it is proved that the predictor/ independent variables contribute positively towards change in the dependent variable (EP). The study concludes within a set of recommendations for improved HRMPs and EP. Chief among these recommendations is that line managers besides HR managers need to better observe the integration and congruence among their HRMPs and its impact on their employees level of performance. Also, there should be evidence of existence of an integrated system for assessing the success of these HRMPs in enhancing employee performance which will lead to improve in organizational performance.
