The Impact of High-Performance Works Practice on Employees Job, Life and Career Satisfaction

Abstract

The objective of this study is to explore the association between high-performance work practices (HPWPs) — encompassing training, empowerment, rewards, and teamwork — and the levels of personal career, job, and life satisfaction among full-time academic staff at Komar University of Science and Technology. Employing a quantitative methodology, the research utilizes a survey questionnaire disseminated through a Microsoft online form to collect data. The sample comprises 92 participants representative of the study's population. Data analysis was conducted using SPSS software, version 26. The analysis concluded a lack of significant correlation between HPWPs and the variables measuring satisfaction in care, job, and life. It was also observed that a mere 7% of employees engaged in high-performance work reported satisfaction across these areas. These findings contradict our initial hypothesis, indicating that HPWPs may not be as influential on satisfaction levels as previously anticipated.
