Correlation of Human Resources Management Practices on Job Satisfaction and Organizational Commitment: The Case of a Public University in Cavite, Philippines

The interdisciplinary dynamics of human resource management policies and practices enable organizations to realize their goals and business objectives. Recruitment and selection processes, compensation and rewards, employee involvement, training and development, working conditions, and performance appraisal practices impact employees’ satisfaction and commitment decisions in an organization. However, to achieve remarkable success in goal achievement, positioning the organization in the labor market, and obtaining a competitive advantage, organizations, especially higher education institutions, must foster policies and practices that boost teachers/professors' job satisfaction and commitment. Therefore, this research project investigates the impact of human resources management practices on employees' (teachers/professors) job satisfaction and organizational commitment in a public university in Cavite, Philippines. The descriptive design and quantitative method were used to integrate the study coherently and logically. Besides, the author combined purposive sampling to select the research locale, whereas stratified random sampling techniques were utilized to stratify participants based on their college of assignment. Data for the study were collected among 180 participants, males 79 (43.9%) and females 101(56.1%). Questionnaires asking about HRMPs, Job Satisfaction, and Organizational Commitment Scales were used to collate primary data for the study. The statistical treatment used was mean, standard deviation, and product-moment correlation coefficient (PMCC). Accordingly, a positive and significant correlation between human resource management practices variables and the job satisfaction subscales. Also, the results showed a strong, significant correlation between human resource management policies and practices components and the organizational commitment elements. The implications of the study are discussed in the paper.
