CHAPTER ONE

INTRODUCTION

1.1 BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY

In the last ten years, organizations especially in Nigeria have been hit with the undisputable fact that the creation of competitive advantage lies in people. Organizations have increasingly recognised the potential for their people to be a source of competitive advantage. Not too long ago, so called Human Resource functions was the preserved of “personnel managers” whose duties were to select, appraise, promote, demote and recruit. These superficial duties could be perform by any manager, it therefore never seemed necessary employ an expert in the form of Human Resource Manager let along create a whole department dedicated to Human Resource Management issues and its impact on organizational performance. The emphasis on traditional and socio-culture issues injected an element of subjectivity in personnel manager functions such as recruitment, selection, compensation and demotion.                                                                            In today’s competitive and changing business world, organizations especially in the service industry need to ensure maximum utilization of their resources to their own advantage; a necessity for organizational survival. Studies have shown that organizations can create and sustain competitive position through management of substitute, rare, valued and inimitable internal resources (Barney, 2001). Human resource management has translated from policies that gather dust to practices that produce results. Human resource management practices has the ability create organizations that are intelligent, flexible and competent than their rivals through the application of policies and practices that concentrate on recruiting, selecting, deployment, training skilled employees and directing their best efforts to cooperate within the resource bundle of the organization. This can potentially consolidate organisations performance and create competitive advantage as a result of historical sensitivity of human resource and the complex of policies and practices that rivals may not be able to imitate or replicate their diversity and dept. lately; organisations are focused on achieving superior performance through the best use of talented human resources as strategic assets. Human resource management policies or strategies must now be aligned to business strategies for organizational success. No matter the amount of technology and mechanization developed, human resource remains the singular most important resource of any success-oriented organisation. After all, successful businesses are build on the strength of exceptional people. Human resource management has gained significance academically and business wise and can therefore not to be related to the background or left in the hands of non-experts. Attention must be paid to how human resources in organisation spend considerable time and resources to select.                                                                                                                                                                                                 Armstrong (2009) defines Human Resource Management (HRM) as a strategic and coherent approach to the management of organisation’s most valued asset; that is, the people working there who individually and collectively contributes to the achievement of its objectives. Moreover, Human resource management practices can be defined as a set of organisationals activities that aim at managing a pool of human capital and ensuring that this capital is employed towards the achievement of organizational objectives (Wright and Boswell, 2002). The adoption of certain bundles of human resource management practice has the positively of influencing organization performance by creating powerful connections or to detract from performance when certain combination of practice are inadvertently placed in the mix (Wagar and Rondeau, 2006). So if think human resource management as just the service that any employee can provide recruitment, selection, performance appraisal, compensating employees, training and development, then we rather would have to take the backseat for those who understand the influence of human resource management has on corporate performance to take the center stage. Research has recorded that there is positive relationship between human resource management practice and corporate performance. Thus in order to stimulate corporate performance, management is required to train and develop talented skilled employees who are capable of performing their jobs successfully (Klein, 2004).                                                                                                                                            Achieving better corporate performance requires successful, effective and efficient exploit of organisations resources and competences in order to create and sustain competitive position locally and globally. Human resource management policies on selection, performance appraisal, deployment, compensation, promotion, incentives, involvement, communication, participation, work design, employment security, training and development, etc, most be formulated and implemented by human resource management specialist with the help of line managers to achieve the following out comes; competence, cooperation with management ,cooperation among employees, motivation, commitment, satisfaction, retention, presence, etc.                                                                                                                                         For business to survive , human resource management should be given its rightful place of relevance in any organisation and not left in the hands of line managers who neither have the expertise nor the time and space to carry out the enormous functions of human resource manager. Therefore the study has determined the effect of human resource management on organizational performance in Viju industry Igbesa.

 

1.2 STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM

Human resource management has made significant inroads into the Nigeria corporate world. It is common to see large organisation in Nigeria set up a whole department for the sole aim of managing human resources and hire experts in the field to be in charge of human resource management cold. The enormous benefits of properly managing human resource cannot be over emphasizes. However, the majority of the organisations in Nigeria are yet to catch the human resource management cold. Inappropriate human resource policies and practice of some these banks can be attributed to non-existence of human resource management specialist or departments. Research has establish a significantly a positive relationship between human resource management and organizational performance. Most of these organistions do not realize the impact of properly managing its human resources and therefore leave polices in the hands of line managers and board of directors who are non-human resource manager’s experts to implement and enforce strategies, policies, processes, programmes, and practices. The value of properly managing human resource is lost to such organisations which cannot consequently impede or their growth.                                                            Management of people and acquiring competitive edge are two key challenges facing most organisations. How you manage the people and how you mange the risk determines how competitive a firm may be within its industry. Gaining competitive edge may not be possible without efficient and skilled manpower.                                                                                                                                                                     In acquiring competitive advantage, Viju must try to distinguish them by creating their own niches or images, especially in transparent situations with a high level of competitiveness. In coming times, the very survival Viju would depend on customer’s satisfaction. Those who do not meet the customers’ expectations will find survivals difficult. Organisation especially must articulate and emphasize the core value to attract and retain certain customers segment. A sound reliable, innovative, close and socially responsible workforce need to emphasize upon in order to acquire competitive advantage.                              Human resource management has into oblivion to most of the organisations saw the role and impact of human resource management on performance and worked towards properly managing their manpower. It is in the face of this existing state that the researcher has established the impact of human resource management on organizational performance.
