Most of the research has been conducted in the job satisfaction of employees' on employees job related outcomes but there is little well comprehensive research done that shows the influence of HRM practices on the satisfaction of employees towards a job.This study is co-relational type of research design which is aimed to describe or ascertain if there are significant associations between selected HRM practices and employees' job satisfaction.In addition to Correlation and Regression, Descriptive statistics, frequencies and percentages were utilized to analyze the data.Interpretation is made on the mean, frequency, and percentage of the data and summarized by bar graphs and pie charts.The study result has implied that recruitment and selection is found to have moderate but positive correlation with employees' job satisfaction and the remaining, training and development, performance appraisal and compensation package found to have strong positive correlation with employees' job satisfaction. Moreover, the regression result shows that recruitment and selection, training and development, performance appraisal and compensation package have a significant positive impact on job satisfaction.Each HRM practices in the banks should be a source for employees' satisfaction and then employees will be loyal and willing to stay in those organizations (Banks) because, employees' satisfaction on the job will reduce absenteeism and turn over intentions in public banks.
Objective: This study aims to empirically investigate the moderating effect of ambidextrous leadership in the relationship between high-performance work systems (HPWS) and employee ambidexterity.
Design/Methods/Approach: By integrating social exchange theory and the abilities, motivation, and opportunity (AMO model of human resource management), using a sample of 387 non-supervisory sales representative employees of Ethio-Telecom in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. The proposed hypotheses were examined using structural equation modeling, SPSS plus AMOS software.
Findings: The study reveals that HPWS has a positive and significant effect on employee ambidexterity. In addition, ambidextrous leadership moderates the relationship between a high-performance work system and employee ambidexterity. Furthermore, at the high level of ambidextrous leadership, the effect of a high-performance work system on employee ambidexterity is stronger.
Originality: This study adds ambidextrous leadership as a moderator in the relationship between HPWS and employee ambidexterity, creating a new theoretical framework. Similarly, in stressing an evident gap in the relationship between HPWS and employee ambidexterity, this paper attempts to explain further how ambidextrous leadership moderates the effect of HPWS on employee ambidexterity.
Practical/Policy implication: The study result reveals that the supervisors' high ambidextrous leadership behaviors and well-crafted HPWS enhance the sales representative's desire to engage in exploitative and exploration activities. In light of this, it makes sense that ambidextrous leadership is necessary to greatly affect HPWS and employee ambidexterity, enabling the organization to guide its leadership selection and development.
