Abstract

This paper examined the relationships between recruitment and selection practices with business performance in the manufacturingsector using the Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) in the Lagos metropolis as the unit of analysis. It identified employee referral,job vacancy advertisement, employment agency and employee promotion as the most commonly used recruitment and selectionpractices in the manufacturing SMEs’ environment. The study made use of a questionnaire administered to 288 respondents and the results obtained showed that the vacancy advertisement and employment agency have a moderate relationship with business performance while employee promotion has a weak relationship with business performance while employee referral has a negative relationship with business performance. Regression results also indicated a positive relationship between combined recruitment and selection practices and business performance. It was concluded that the management of SMEs should prioritise employment agency among the recruitment and selection practices since it was found to have a more decisive influence on business performance. Thus, having the patronage of the employment agency with sound personnel policies that will be costeffective and outline human resource requirements is recommended. 
尼日利亚中小型制造企业的招聘和选拔实践与业务绩效之间的关系
本文以拉各斯大都市的中小企业(SMEs)为分析单位,研究了制造业招聘和选拔实践与经营绩效之间的关系。报告指出,在制造业中小企业中,员工推荐、职位空缺广告、职业介绍所和员工晋升是最常用的招聘和选拔方法。本研究通过对288名受访者进行问卷调查,结果显示招聘广告和职业介绍所对企业绩效的影响为中等,员工晋升对企业绩效的影响为弱,员工推荐对企业绩效的影响为负。回归结果还表明,综合招聘和选拔实践与企业绩效呈正相关。结论是,中小企业的管理应优先考虑职业介绍所的招聘和选择做法,因为它被发现对企业业绩有更决定性的影响。因此,建议由具有具有成本效益和概述人力资源需求的健全人事政策的职业介绍所赞助。
