Abstract

Poor performance of lecturers in Nigerian Polytechnics warrants independent research on lecturers’ job performance, given that the poor performance has seriously affected educational development in the country. Substantial evidence from the extant literature has highlighted that high-performance work practices are significant predictors and drivers of enhanced performance. Also, the functionality of high-performance work practices is context-dependent. Therefore, the current study investigates the effect of high-performance work practices (recruitment and selection, training and development, and employee involvement) on lecturers’ performance in the context of Nigerian polytechnics. It also examines the moderating role of working conditions in the high-performance work practices’ relationship with lecturers’ performance. Data were obtained from 539 academics in the North-west Nigerian polytechnics. The overall findings indicate that training and development and employee involvement are significant predictors of enhanced lecturers’ performance, and working condition strengthens the recruitment and selection–performance connection and employee involvement–performance relationship. This implies that the link between HR practices and enhanced performance could be affected by the environment within which organizations operate. The present study focused mainly on teaching staff from the polytechnics located in the north-central geopolitical zone of Nigeria. Thus, other geopolitical zones and non-teaching staff from various polytechnics could be studied further by future studies.
高绩效工作实践讲师的绩效联系:工作条件是否重要?
鉴于尼日利亚理工学院讲师的糟糕表现严重影响了该国的教育发展,因此有必要对讲师的工作表现进行独立研究。现有文献中的大量证据表明,高绩效工作实践是提高绩效的重要预测因素和驱动因素。此外,高性能工作实践的功能取决于上下文。因此,本研究调查了尼日利亚理工学院高绩效工作实践(招聘和选拔、培训和发展以及员工参与)对讲师绩效的影响。它还考察了工作条件在高绩效工作实践与讲师绩效关系中的调节作用。数据来自尼日利亚西北理工学院的539名学者。总体研究结果表明,培训和发展以及员工参与是提高讲师绩效的重要预测因素,而工作条件加强了招聘和选择-绩效联系以及员工参与-绩效关系。这意味着人力资源实践与提高绩效之间的联系可能会受到组织运作环境的影响。本研究主要针对尼日利亚中北部地缘政治区理工学院的教职员工。因此,未来的研究可以进一步研究其他地缘政治区域和各理工学院的非教职员工。
