Management bias as a cause of employee weak performance: Case study at Jadara University

Abstract

The study seeks to define the role of management bias on the weak performance of employees. The research sample comprised of 107 male and female employees. To achieve this research purpose, there were 79 questionnaires valid for statistical analysis, adopting the descriptive approach. Questionnaire was used to measure the effect of management bias on employees' weak performance. The study concluded that the university dependence on scientific foundations, qualifications, and abilities in selecting and recruiting employees was intermediate, which indicates that the university does not often follow the right regulations in selecting employees, indicating the bias existing in employees' selection. In light of the aforementioned results, the study recommended the management at Jadara University to establish an independent committee of professionals to recruit efficient and qualified employees.
