Abstract:

This study aimed to discover the role of human resource management practices in achieving job satisfaction within organizations in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The field of study consists of a group of small and medium companies located in the city of Jeddah. A questionnaire was prepared and developed for the study. For the purpose of this study, (150) questionnaires were distributed to the employees of the group of companies under study. The number of questionnaires returned was (147) with a percentage of (98%). After examining the retrieved forms, it was found that there were (6) questionnaires with incorrect and incomplete data. Thus, the number of valid questionnaires for analysis is (141), which represents (94%) of the total number that was distributed. After testing and analyzing the hypotheses of the study, the results showed that there is a statistically significant effect of human resource management practices on employee satisfaction in small and medium-sized companies in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. There is a statistically significant effect of recruitment and selection on employee satisfaction in small and medium-sized companies in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. There is a statistically significant effect of training programs on employee satisfaction in small and medium-sized companies in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. One of the most prominent recommendations of the study is that the senior management in institutions in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia implement a more equitable incentive system that provides employees with the benefits they need other than basic benefits, such as health care, additional wages, and other non-essential benefits.
