Empirical Investigation in Human Resource Management in Nigeria

This book is basically an empirical investigation that was conducted in South-South, Nigeria. It aimed to ascertain the extent to which various human resource management practices such as human resource planning, recruitment and selection, training and development, performance appraisal and reward system correlate with business educationists' perceived job performance and retention in Edo and Delta States. All the business educationists in teaching in colleges of education in the two states were used for the study. The study found that human resource management practices were significant predictors of business educationists' perceived job performance and retention. Based on the findings, it was recommended that institutions should continue to plan for their human resource needs in order to guarantee the employment of competent educationists and to retain them as well. Institution of higher learning should make conscious effort to ensure that their recruitment and selection process is fair in order to engage competent educationists that can perform well. Government should continue to invest in the training and re-training of educationists in order to boost their performance.
