Abstract
This study examines the effect of human resource management practices on employee job satisfaction and to examine whether human resource management practices can also reduce employee turnover in the garment industry, Myanmar. To achieve the objectives of this study, the secondary data was used by collecting the recorded organization data from internet, textbooks, and related research papers. The findings indicated that human resource management practices namely, recruitment and selection, training and development, performance appraisal, compensation and benefits are the influencing factors of employee job satisfaction. The results showed that all the human resource management practices strongly affect the satisfaction of the employees. Moreover, the study found that especially employee job satisfaction is the most influencing factor of the turnover rate of employees in the organization. In addition, this study also indicated that employee job satisfaction and employee turnover are directly related to each other. Most garment industries in Myanmar have a lack of HR planning analysis, no specific HR department, and no systematic HRM practices. As for suggestions, the garment factory should set up the full-fledged Human Resource Department with competent officials who have expertise related to various functions of the department and should apply systematic Human Resource Management practices. Therefore, this study attempts to highlight a more comprehensive understanding of employee job satisfaction and employee turnover based on human resource management practices of the garment industry in Myanmar.
