Background of the Study
Human Resource Management (HRM) practices encompass a wide range of activities aimed at maximizing employee performance, satisfaction, and engagement. In industries such as telecommunications, where competition is fierce and the pace of change is rapid, effective HRM practices are essential for attracting, retaining, and developing talented employees. MTN Nigeria, a leading telecommunications provider in Nigeria, has implemented various HRM practices aimed at improving employee performance, fostering a positive organizational culture, and achieving strategic objectives.
In Kano State, where MTN Nigeria has a significant presence, HRM practices play a pivotal role in ensuring that the company remains competitive in the telecom market. Effective recruitment, training, performance management, and employee engagement strategies are crucial for sustaining MTN Nigeria’s growth and market share. This study will evaluate the HRM practices in place at MTN Nigeria and their impact on employee performance and organizational success in Kano State.
Although there has been extensive research on HRM practices globally, studies focusing specifically on the telecommunications industry in Nigeria, particularly regarding MTN Nigeria, remain limited. This study aims to fill this gap by evaluating MTN Nigeria's HRM practices and their effectiveness in improving organizational outcomes.
