THE IMPACT OF RECRUITMENT AND EMPLOYEE RETENTION

 



According to Rafii (2015) on recruitment, there is a relationship between recruitment and employee performance. According To Patimah ( 2015) good recruitment program has a positive impact on increasing productivity, work quality, and performance. Retention of good employees will result in improved employee performance (Susilo, 2013). Rafii (2015) States that the link between employee retention and performance is extremely complex. If a bad employee is retained by the company, it will influence other employees to leave or increase turnover, and if employees get what they want, the company's performance will improve   (Sumarni, 2011) .

  2. Agreed with Your Points thanuja.The use of technology in the workplace has impacted on all areas of employment, with technology providing significant and advantageous ways in which to enhance organisational recruitment practices (Gregory et al., 2013). The Internet has created opportunities for online recruitment practices to emerge for a number of years, and organisations have been utilising Web 1.0 technology by posting vacancies on websites and job boards.

    1. Agreed with your point. However, A bad employee retention program will improve the employee's intention to move or turnover intention, if an employee gets what they want, then it will improve performance (Sumarni, 2011)

  3. Hi Thanuja, Agrred with your post and adding to this A lot less recruiting will be required if better employee retention is done (Sam, 1999). Retention begins long before an employee’s first day on the job. It starts when a company representative defines the position to be filled, and continues till interview and hiring process is completed. In essence, job descriptions, recruitment, selection and employee orientation are the foundations of retention (Dibble, 1999)

  4. Hello Thanuja,I agree with most of the arguments in your explanation. When we are talking about employee retention we can use "Zinger model" inside an organization.It is a workable model which throws lights on various aspects of employee retention and engagement with twelve keys that should be followed by managers in order to achieve significant success in the organization (Shailashri, Shenoy, & Kumar, 2018).

Addition to above, It is perceived that the ability of an organization to find, attract and retain best employees was perceived is the two most critical people management issues that are faced by organizations today. To achieve this purpose, it is required to have sound Human Resource Management practices. Among the varied responsibilities of Human Resources (HR), the most critical are the recruitment of the most excellent employees and keeping them happy and on the job.

  14. Hello Thanuja, adding to your post, Extrinsic and intrinsic motivation are terms used to describe different types of motivation. The primary source of motivation is found within the individual. Anyone who has set a goal will quickly realize that the desire to succeed is insufficient. Achieving such goals necessitates perseverance in overcoming obstacles and continuing to overcome difficulties (Sansone and Harackiewicz, 2000)

  15. Hello Thanuja. I agree with your content and would like to add that in an organisation where recruitment and selection processes were not properly done, the propensity of the turnover intention of employees will be massive (Huselid, 1995). Generally, employees who are satisfied with the recruitment and selection process of an organisation are willing to contribute to the organisation (Eisenberger, Armeli, Rexwinkel, Lynch, and Rhoades, 2001).

  16. Hello Thanuja.
    I agree with your content and would like to add that employee relations are concerned with generally managing the employment relationship and
    developing a positive psychological contract. In particular they deal with terms and conditions
    of employment, issues arising from employment, providing employees with a voice and communicating with employees. Employees are dealt with either directly or through collective
    agreements where trade unions are recognized
