This study was conducted to determine the effect of rewards systems and training and development on employee retention, mediated by the effects of job satisfaction, in Yemeni commercial banks. The study used cross-sectional data collection methods. Data was collected from the headquarters of 15 commercial banks. A set of questionnaires using a 5-point Likert scale was distributed to employees; the data was analyzed using the Structured Equation Model (SEM) by IBM SPSS AMOS 25.0. The results indicated that both the rewards system and training and development significantly affect job satisfaction, while job satisfaction has a significant positive effect on employee retention. Training and development themselves have no statistically significant effect on employee retention. The results showed that job satisfaction plays a mediating role because the indirect effect is significant. The mediation is complete because the direct impact is not significant. The result indicates that job satisfaction is an important variable that links the reward system and training and development to employee retention in Yemeni banks. This study is expected to make significant theoretical, practical, and methodological contributions to this field of research due to the development of a model of the effects of the reward system and training and development on employee retention through job satisfaction.

Banking is one of the fastest-growing sectors because of its contribution to the economy, however, today employee retention is demurring for banks and they are striving to fulfil this challenge. It has been observed from the past few years that it is due to the lack of knowledge related to the proper implementation of HR practices in the commercial banks. The main purpose behind conducting the research is to understand the effect of compensation (C), working environment (WE), training and development (T&D), and performance appraisal (PA) on employee retention (ER). The study used convenience sampling with a sample size of 200 and data was collected from the employees of different commercial banks located in Islamabad and Rawalpindi. The empirical results showed that WE, PA, and COM have a significant positive relationship with the ER whereas T&A has the insignificant one.

Indeed, employee retention is a critical success factor for organizations worldwide. Training and development is also one of the most vital issues of human resource management. By reviewing the literature, it is clear that theorists, academicians as well managers emphasize that training and development is an essential and decisive factor. Thus, this paper aims to determine the possibility of enhancing feelings of job satisfaction for workers in the banking sector in Yemen through training and development opportunities granted to them by the institution. From this point of view, the organization's ability to retain its employees and the low intention rate of employee turnover can cause great inconvenience to the organization. The research design for the current study is quantitative. For data collection and measurement, the study mainly adopts both descriptive research design while for data analysis; the correlation research design has opted., a set of questionnaires primarily used during the data collection. The results of this paper are likely to emphasize the importance of training and development as a critical factor affecting job satisfaction, which in turn affects employee retention in the banking sector in Yemen. This study contributes to raising awareness of the importance of training and development as a critical factor in job satisfaction, which is very important, especially regarding the organization's ability to retain its employees.

Purpose Previous studies suggested that talent management (TM) is positively related to employee work attitudes. However, a few studies have examined the mechanisms through which TM leads to employee work attitudes. The purpose of this paper is to examine the mediating role of person-organisation (P-O) fit on the relationship between TM and employee’s job satisfaction, and organisational citizenship behaviours (OCBs). Design/methodology/approach Using a sample of 232 talented employees from the Ghanaian banking sector, a partial mediation model was outlined and tested using structural equation modelling. Findings The results showed that TM had positive relationship with P-O fit, job satisfaction and OCBs. The findings further show that P-O fit had positive relationship between job satisfaction and OCBs and partially mediated the relationship between TM and both job satisfaction, and OCBs. Research limitations/implications This study used cross-sectional data; hence, conclusions regarding causality cannot be made. That is, the results must be interpreted as associations rather than causality. Practical implications Management should endeavour to use TM to help align talented employee’s competences, values and goals to those of their organisation. Originality/value This study contributed to the TM literature by providing a stronger and more plausible explanation of the relationship between TM and talented employees’ outcomes.

This research attempts to measure the nexus of training, employee commitment, and employee performance in the Nepalese commercial banking sector. Descriptive and causal research design is used to achieve the objectives of the research. Structured questionnaires were made, and the survey was done to collect primary cross-sectional data. Employees of the commercial banks in Kathmandu Valley who have been involved in the training program at least one time are included in the survey. Judgmental sampling was taken. This research confirmed that the training need assessment, mode of training, and training feedback significantly influence employee commitment, and employee commitment influences employee performance in commercial banks. So, bank managers must accept the nexus of training in employee commitment and employee performance.

AbstractAfter the opening up of the banking sector to domestic and foreign capitals which is approved by the Chinese government, the China Banking Regulatory Commission (CBRC) has permitted city commercial banks to diversify geographically. Since this deregulation in 2006, city commercial banks began to geographically diversify to occupy the market and acquire more financial resources. To examine the causal relationship between geographical diversification and bank performance, we construct an exogenous geographical diversification instrument using the gravity-deregulation model and a policy shock. We find that bank geographical diversification negatively affects bank performance. Moreover, we conduct some mechanism tests in the Chinese context. We find that the target market with several large- and medium-sized banks and a high level of local protectionism in the target market decreases the performance of city commercial banks. Finally, cross-sectional analyses show that the impact of geographical diversification on banks’ performance is more notable among city commercial banks that are younger, and have a lower capital adequacy ratio and a higher non-performing loan ratio.

The study focuses on empirically examining the relationship of talent management (TM) on employee performance and quit intention.  Further, by taking into account business strategy, the research also culls out the sequential mediation effect of talent management and employee engagement on employee work-related outcomes in the banking sector of Pakistan. Data were analyzed by employing Smart PLS (v.3.2.7) to empirically examine the conceptual model on 1095 talented employees, which were part and parcel of the Banking Sector of Pakistan. The core findings of the research paper are that the talent management practices have a positive impact upon the working of employees as well as quit intentions. Additionally, the study deduced that engagement at employees’ level might contribute partially as a mediation role in between employee work outcomes and talent management. The study employed cross-sectional one-time data collection, therefore its generalizability is suggested as limited with its scope. Human Resource personnel and OB practitioners can create a positive workplace culture in the organization by implementing talent management practices. The study makes value addition in the existing literature of talent management and explore new variable, which is affected by talent management.
