Abstract
The aim of the research is to examine the effect of human resource management (HRM) practices on employee performance. It was investigated which of the HRM practices affected employee performance more. In the literature, the effect of HRM practices on job performance has been studied much more than its effect on employee performance. Therefore, in this study, it is aimed to contribute to the literature by examining the effects of HRM practices on employee performance. HRM practices that are the subject of our study; human resources planning, job analysis and job design, human resources (HR) finding and selection, training and development, performance evaluation, career management, wage management and reward system, occupational health and safety. In our research, employee performance was also examined in two dimensions as task performance and contextual performance. A total of 220 people working in 4 different institutions who agreed to participate in the research were surveyed and the results were shared.
According to the results of the analysis, HR finding and selection, training and development, wage management and rewarding practices have a significant impact on the job performance of the employees. Again, planning and job analysis, HR finding and selection, training and development, compensation and reward practices have a significant impact on the contextual performance of employees. However, a significant effect of performance evaluation and career management, occupational health and safety practices on task and contextual performance could not be determined. When the study is evaluated as a whole, it is concluded that HRM practices have a significant effect on employee performance.
