PROACTIVE HUMAN RESOURCE MANAGEMENT AND THE PERFORMANCE OF THE PRIVATIZED ORGANIZATIONS: EVIDENCE FROM SELECTED NIGERIAN ORGANIZATIONS
Journal Title: European Journal of Business and Social Sciences - Year 2017, Vol 6, Issue 1
Abstract
Human resource management (HRM) practice and knowledge of the factors that impact on the practice in Nigeria has become increasingly critical to the way businesses are operated in the country and ultimately the success of the business. Consequently the paper aims to examine if the application of proactive human resource management in recruitment and selection of employees enhances the performance of the selected privatized organizations. Survey design was used for the study. Eighty nine Privatized organizations formed our population. Thirty one organizations with 71 291 staff were sampled for the study. From the 71 291 staff, 653 served as respondents for the study. Data was collected by questionnaire structured on a 4 point Likert scale. Ttest statistics revealed that the application of proactive human resource management in recruitment and selection has neither enhanced employee competencies nor enhanced the capacity of the Privatized organizations to engage in global business competition.
