The retention of core employees is one of the challenges many of business organizations facing today. For many organizations, strategic staffing has become a concern because the ability to hold on to highly talented core employees can be crucial to future survival. This empirical study examined the current human resource management (HRM) practices of Higher education institution of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa in the retention of their core employees. In particular, the research identified the core elements of HRM practices, which strongly influence the decision for core employees to stay. With the rapid growth and introduction of new public and private sector universities in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, it became difficult to retain employees. The current study focuses on employees of both public and private sector universities in order to extract information about employee choice and critically examines HR practices and factors, which may influence employees to stay and work for organization. Analyzing the existing Human Resources Management literature, there are very few studies have been conducted regarding Human Resource Management practices on retention of core employees. This raises uncultivated issues such as: which factor of HRM, influences retention of core employees in higher education institution of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. These unexplored and uncultivated issues will be the focal point of this study. Furthermore, this study will explore & press forward the HRM literature on the rising trends of the 21st century.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to explore how the institutional context influences human resource management (HRM) policies in the public and private sector in Nigeria. Design/methodology/approach The convergent parallel mixed methods approach was adopted for this study. Survey data were collected from 122 HR managers across public and private sector organizations in Nigeria as well as 13 qualitative interviews. ANCOVA was used to analyse quantitative data while thematic analysis was used to analyse qualitative data in order to understand the influence of institutions on HRM in the public and private sector in Nigeria. Findings Findings indicate that while coercive, mimetic and normative institutional mechanisms influenced HRM in both the public and private sector, the influence of coercive mechanisms was significantly higher in the public sector, largely due to the poor enforcement of labour legislation and attempts by private sector organizations to adopt neo-liberal approaches to HRM. Originality/value The study provides an understanding of the institutional context of HRM in Nigeria by highlighting how varying degrees of pressures from the environment create internal diversity in HRM approaches in the public and private sector.

This chapter examines human resource management (HRM) in organizations in the not-for-profit sector. It examines the use of HRM practices relating to recruitment, selection, training, reward, performance management, communication, and diversity in not-for profit organizations, drawing on data collected via the Cranet survey. In the light of ongoing debate about how the not-for-profit sector differs from, or is similar to, the public and private sectors, we compare the findings across sectors. Furthermore, in line with commentary about the increasing importance of HRM in this sector, we compare the data collected in 2014/15 with the findings from the 2009/10 survey. We show that many of the HRM practices used in the not-for-profit sector are similar to those used in the public and private sectors, making it difficult to identify a unique not-for-profit approach to HRM. However, we also suggest that some elements of the commonly cited values-based approach to HRM remain.

Pros And Cons

This study investigates the relationship between human resource management and employees’ job satisfaction in public and private undertakings. The results revealed a positive relationship between managers and employees’ job satisfaction. The analysis is based on a sample of 100 employees which were randomly chosen from both the sectors. The happier people are within their job, the more satisfied they are said to be. This paper surveys both the sectors in most of the aspects of analysis. However both sectors have their own pros and cons which will be made clear while evaluating job-satisfaction levels among the employees of both the sector. And given that the reward system in the public sector systematically differs from that of the private sector (in terms of pay, benefits, and psychic value), it seems likely that studies of satisfaction levels among private-sector employees may not be applicable to public-sector employees.Int.
