Assessing the Impact of Human Resources Management Practices on Employee Engagement

This book focuses on assessing the impact of Human Resource Management practices on employee engagement within the Gauteng Department of Cooperative Governance and Traditional Affairs. The results demonstrate a weak positive correlation between (HRM practices) recruitment, appointment and selection; compensation, rewards and benefits, performance appraisal; and employee engagement. The former was not statistically significant, while the latter two were statistically significant. However, Recruitment, selection and appointment practices did not predict employee engagement whereas compensation, rewards and benefits practices, and performance appraisal practices predicted employee engagement.Furthermore, the book contribute to the existing body of knowledge in the area of Human Resource Management.
