Authors : Sule Olatunji Eniola
Abstract:
This work examines the relationship between human resources management practices (recruitment, training, and welfare) and academic staff labor turnover in private higher institutions in Ogun State.  With the study accessible population of 1653 academic staff of private higher institutions in Ogun State, Nigeria and with 310 as the determined sample size, a survey design was used.  The cluster sampling method was used for easy accessibility and grouping because of lack of the availability of a comprehensive list of the academic staff.  Kendall’s tau_b Coefficient of Correlation was used to test the hypotheses.  The study revealed that there is relationship between human resources management practices (recruitment, training, and welfare) and labor turnover. It was recommended, therefore, that human resource unit of every organization should strictly follow the human resources management practices very well with particular emphasis on recruitment. Also, employees should constantly be trained and retrained as well as looking after their well-being.
