dc.description.abstract | The main aim of this study was to establish the influence of HRIS on employee commitment in aluminum and steel manufacturing industries in Nairobi. The study was based on descriptive research design and self-administered questionnaires used as tools for data collection. The research targeted employees in aluminium and steel manufacturing industries in Nairobi employed on permanent basis. Out of 37 aluminium and steel manufacturing companies in Nairobi, the research was based on 8 companies. A sample of 92 was obtained for the study from the 8 companies and only 62 respondents were able to submit their results for the study. The data was analysed using descriptive statistics which included mean and standard deviation. A single regression model was used to test the level of influence of HRIS on employee commitment. After analysis of the data obtained from the study, there was no significant influence of HRIS on employee commitment in aluminium and steel manufacturing industries in Nairobi. The industries have not embraced the use of HRIS to a great extent thus making it hard to analyze the influence of the system on employee commitment. The study recommends that top management at aluminium and steel manufacturing industries should embrace the use of HRIS in their firms to increase efficiency, promote human resource planning and development as well as improve performance and commitment. Aluminium and steel manufacturing industries should also give great importance to HR function in the firms as they play crucial role in increasing efficiency and production thus boosting competitive advantage. | en_US |
