Purpose: The general objective of the study was to establish the role of human resource management practices on the performance of health workers in Kiambu County, Kenya. Methodology: The study adopted cross sectional research design, using both descriptive quantitative and qualitative techniques. The study targeted managers and workers of four hospitals which were purposefully chosen. The data was collected by administering questionnaires to the respondents and conducting KII to the managers. The data was analyzed using SPSS V27. The data was presented using tables and charts to summarize responses. For further analysis and comparison, the generated quantitative reports were subjected through tabulations, percentages, measure of central tendencies, correlation coefficient, chi square test, and inferential statistics. Findings: The study reviewed that training opportunities and performance management practices improves staff motivation and performance (mean of 4.23, and 4.13). Planning (2.66) was biggest hindrances to utilizing training to improve performance. The managers were not well trained on using appraisals, ratings and feedback (2.06) for performance management. The institutions were not embracing performance culture (2.60), and using it for continuous improvement (1.82). Additionally, the study showed that hospitals did not carry out performance measurement regularly (2.81) and the systems for data collection were inadequate (2.43). Unique contribution to theory, practice and policy: The study showed that human resource management practices improve health workers performance. Institutions should formulate and review policies to support human resource management practices that improve performance of the health workers

In this paper, we investigate the current state of human resource management development by conducting a case study of Saudi Electricity Company. Through interviews with HR managers, documentation and archival records examination, we were able to describe and systemize HR policies designed to ensure the well-being of Saudi Electricity Company employees. The findings suggest that Saudi Electricity Company’s level of HRM practice is of appropriate level, with comprehensive medical and social care being provided. Furthermore, the company recognizes good work performed by the employees and rewards them for their loyalty. Through the implementation of the performance management system, the company is able to evaluate the performance of the employees, monitor their progress and offer training and development programs. The value of the conducted case study is that other Saudi Arabian companies can learn and implement similar policies from a successful Saudi Arabian case, instead of blindly copying western management practices.

Human Resource Management Practices

This chapter reviews the literature on the intersection of culture and human resource management. More specifically, the chapter discusses why and how culture accounts for variance in human resource management practices and their outcomes between organizations operating in diverse cultural contexts. To that end, the chapter first provides a summary of how culture is defined and measured and reviews seven established frameworks of culture. Next, the chapter reviews related studies conducted by members of the Cranfield Network on International Human Resource Management and other established scholars in the literature of cultural variance in human resource management practices (i.e., recruitment and selection, performance management and performance appraisal, training and development, compensation and benefits, flexible work arrangement, diversity management, and high-performance work systems) and their outcomes. The chapter concludes with practical implications for multinational corporations and domestic organizations and provides an overview of future research avenues in the field.

The One

Technology advances have dramatically affected the ways in which we manage and organize work. With new evolutions of technologically mediated systems, the development of electronic human resource management (e-HRM) practices becomes more accepted for many organizations. For example, on the one hand, organizations have been able to extend job searches to attract new employees from around the globe using the World Wide Web. This recruitment feature has provided matches of special skilled workers with employers and has lessened recruitment costs for other searches for less skilled positions by bringing potential candidates directly to the organization. On the other hand, HRIS technologies within operation structures such as call centers have been tightly integrated into e-HRM practices creating heavily defined performance management systems. The developments in the call center area specifically have resulted in an interesting convergence of HRIS and HR architectures to explore lessons learned and future directions in e-HRM. The purpose of this article is to first provide a background of the call center developments over the past 15 years in light of e-HRM. Specifically, a focus on the technological advancements in call center operations will be overlaid with the developments of e-HRM practices to reveal the ways in which both are integrated and implemented to create an end-to-end process. The second focus of this article is on the development of performance management HR practices such as electronic performance monitoring (EPM), e-coaching, and e-learning using HRIS integrations. Although in many ways this integrated e-HRM model has improved organization performance and effectiveness, there have also been other implications resulting in negative affects on performance outcomes such as turnover, job satisfaction, and customer satisfaction. So finally, this article will draw out the lessons learned from the call center model and e-HRM with a focus on the balance between human resource management practices and operational structural design.

The Impact

The paper sought to investigate the impact of perceived organisational justice and Human Resource Management (HRM) practices. HRM practices have been recognised progressively more as a vital ingredient towards sustained competitive success, especially firms and organisations that are operating in unstable, challenging and rapidly changing international competitive environments. The paper made use of quantitative methodology. Data was collected from a list HRM payment registered National Department of Public Works (NDPW). Target population were 1296 employees and only 500 employees were selected using simple random sampling.  A total of 375 questionnaires were completed. Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) was used to analyse the data using inferential and descriptive statistics. Employees are not satisfied with the following HRM practices: performance management, compensation, promotion, recruitment and selection. The study recommends that for NDPW to achieve its strategic mandate attention must be given to promote positive organisational justice.

This study sought to establish how Human Resource Management practices predict tutor turnover intentions in primary Teacher Training colleges (PTTCs) in Kenya. The objectives of the study were: to establish the influence of Training, Compensation, Career development and Performance management on tutor turnover intentions in PTTCs in Kenya. The scope of the study was the Nairobi Metropolitan region. Multi stage sampling was used to obtain a sample size of 152 respondents where the actual response rate was 74.3%. The findings of the study showed that training, compensation, career development and performance management were poorly practiced and that they significantly and negatively predict tutor turnover intentions in PTTCs as they collectively accounted for 28% variation in the experienced turnover intentions among the tutors. The findings raise both theoretical and practical implications for underpinning HRM practice, behavioral science theories and personnel administrative responsibilities to college principals respectively. The study calls on future research to consider the contingent effects of the tutors' demographic characteristics and the contextual factors surrounding HRM Practice in the Colleges.
