A STUDY ON HUMAN RESOURCE PRACTICES AND ITS IMPACT ON EMPLOYEES SATISFACTION WITH...
INTRODUCTION
After 1991 India has accepted the liberation, privatisations and globalization policy. The impact
of this policy changes in Indian agriculture sector, industry sector and service sector. In the modern era,
the economists have announced “human resource” as an advent in the international arena in a
thumping fashion. The human resource is indubitably the most dynamic backbone of any economic
enterprise; “the Resource of all resources” will take a giant leap over all resource components. Business
experts highlight the issues such as global competition, the fast changing information and technology;
composition of workforce etc., the business performance has successfully transited from the slow
growth economy a fast growing one. There was a shift from the tradition bound personnel management
to people oriented service. The conventional personnel management is more bureaucratic whereas the
human resource management attaches more importance to humanism and humanization. New
techniques and styles of managing have been developed. Personal administration, Industrial relations
and labour welfare have become the integral parts of the broad human resource practices. Human
resource professionals must concentrate more on the deliverables of their work and less on just getting
the work done. They must tackle the complex, social, economic legal and ethical issues. An efficient
human resource is a strategic asset.

Hafiz Kashif Iqbal et al (2013) the study aims to examine the impact of selected human resource

practices on job satisfaction in manufacturing as well as services sector of Pakistan from Punjab
province. Survey questionnaire was used to gather cross sectional data to summarize Whole Ocean in
one drop. Empirical results from data gathering reveal latest indications formulated hypothesis
approved and has been accepted. Regression analysis showed that supervisor role has strong positive
effect on job satisfaction (49.2% variation in job satisfaction due to the supervisor role which is
significant at .000), participation in decision making the factor which is the optimistic about company
success has lesser positive effect on job satisfaction (11.9% variation in JS is due the PDM) and similarly in
compensation portion performance related bonuses is effective (7.6% variation in JS due to the CP). It is
concluded that mentioned HR practices having an effect on job satisfaction of an organization
employees in Pakistan. Strength of the effectiveness is different and environment of the organization
also effective between the relationships of HR practices and Job satisfaction. Supervisor’s role is most
effective for the Job satisfaction according to this study.
Hussain and Rehman (2013) examined the relationship between the HRM practices
implemented by the organization on employee’s intention to stay and work effectively for the
organization. The result of the study explored that HRM practices viz-a-viz: person-organization fit,
employment security, communication and training and development are contributing strongly in
developing the employees’ intentions to stay with organization. Further, strong positive interrelationships were found between HRM practices and employees’ retention and such practices
enhances employees’ retain ability of organizations.
Lamba and Choudhary (2013) revealed that how HRM practices provide an edge to employee’s
commitment towards an organization goal in the global competitive market. The study concluded that
HRM practices such as training & development, compensation and welfare activities has significant
effect on organizational commitment and are associated with superior organizational performance,
which help in retention of knowledgeable and skilled employees.
Olusegun (2013) conducted a study among universities employees in South West Nigeria to
examine the influence of job satisfaction on turnover intentions. The result of the study found that the
linear combination effect of job satisfaction and turnover intentions was significant. There were
significant relationships between job satisfaction and turnover intention. The study also revealed that
there was no significant difference in the turnover intention of library personnel by their place of work.
N.Shaik Mohamed and G.Pasupathi (2013) indicates that the relationship between HR practices and its
overall dimensions by using mulietiple regression which almost all of the aspects of the factors are
positive value. The least value emphasis that to be improved i.e satisfaction of pay and recruitment and
selection procedure by the hotel employer should be in favour of the employees to improve the
satisfaction level which will lead to perform better to attain growthness of the hotel.
P.M.S.Abdul Gaffoor and K.S.M.D .Akmal (2013) in their study on “Innovative HR practices in
Larsen & Toubro limited” in order to withstand global competition, best HR practices have a continuing
and significant influence on employment and productivity. There is unlimited potential in HR that can be
encouraged, developed and nurtured in a proper environment. It is evident that best HR practices will
certainly help in marching ahead besides giving ample directions for others to emulate. The company in
spite of its diverse nature of operations has blossomed and grown because of its people who give more
than 100 per cent of their time and energy.
Mostafizur Rahmania et al (2013) The study shows that HRM practices are very poor in
pharmaceutical companies in Bangladesh that leads poor satisfaction of employees. The study found
employees are satisfied to recruitment and selection process, and training and development of
pharmaceuticals companies. Employees are dissatisfied about human resource planning. The
pharmaceuticals companies should have the right process to forecast the demand and supply of human

resources, to estimate the external supply and to match proper demand and supply. Working
environment is always an important variable of employee satisfaction. Congenial working environment
provides additional satisfaction toward work conversely, irritative working environment creates
problem to do the work simply. However, the study shows employees are not satisfied with working
environment. It is recommended that pharmaceuticals companies will ensure proper working
environment for their employees. The most of the pharmaceutical employees have a high dissatisfaction
on compensation policy. It is suggested that the pharmaceutical companies should restructure their
compensation policy to grab and retain valuable human capitals. Performance appraisal evaluates
employees’ job performance both in qualitative and quantitative aspects that cause positive intension
toward work and enhance employees’ productivity. The study shows that employees are poorly satisfied
with the performance appraisal system of the pharmaceuticals companies. The pharmaceutical
companies have to undertake apposite methods of performance appraisal for procedural evaluation
and supervision of employees. The proper industrial relations imply harmonious and peaceful relation
between labour and management. It leads to sound industrial environment, industrial democracy, social
peace, etc. and it causes satisfaction for both parties. The study demonstrates that most of the
employees are not satisfied with the industrial relations. The companies should take necessity actions as
soon as possible for pleasant sounding industrial relations. Therefore, the study suggests that the
pharmaceutical companies should develop proper human resource policy and given emphasis on
proper human resource practices to enhance the satisfaction of their employees and building them
effective human resources.
Masoodul Hassan (2013) Employee satisfaction and loyalty is one of the most important
challenges that banking sector is facing in current competitive market. A lot of studies have been
conducted to determine predictors of employee satisfaction but these studies focused only on
developed countries. Therefore, the main purpose of study is to find the relationship between three HR
practices i.e. compensation, empowerment and appraisal system and employee satisfaction & loyalty in
government owned public sector banks of Pakistan. For this purpose, data has been collected from the
employees of govt. owned public banks. Statistical software SPSS 17 has been used for validity,
reliability, and correlation and regression analysis. Employee compensation is found to be most
important factor for creating satisfaction among employee while employee empowerment is found to
be significant factor for developing employee loyalty. Theoretical and managerial implications along
with limitations for future research have also been discussed.
Vikram Jeet et al (2014) Overall HR practices have positive correlation with job satisfaction.
Evaluated the relationship between HR practices (impact of supervisor role, participation in decision
making & compensation policy) and employee’s job satisfaction among the employees of manufacturing
and service sector of Pakistan. The results of study revealed that supervisor role has strong positive
effect on job satisfaction. The participation in decision making the factor which is the optimistic about
company success has lesser positive effect on job satisfaction.
