Journal Title: IOSR journal of Business and Management - Year 2018, Vol 20, Issue 5
Abstract
Human resource information system (HRIS) is a concept which utilizes the information technology for effective management of the human resource, its functions and applications.E-performance management system is an important component of HRIS whose effects on organization performance remains largely unknown.Several studies both local and international have underscored the importance of HRIS on performance of organizations. However, the effects of the individual components of the system such as E-Performance Management were largely subsumed, hence, the exact impact of E-Performance Management is not known. Further, the focus of the studies was not on Saccos. Therefore, the purpose of the current study was to examine the effect of e-performance management systems on organization performance of Saccos in Kenya. The study was guided by the technology acceptance theory. The study employed a cross sectional survey design targeting a population of 54 respondents drawn from 18 Saccos in the country. Purposive sampling was used to select the 54 respondents who were mainly the employees in the human resource department. Questionnaires were used as data collection instruments and data was quantitative in nature. Data was analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics and correlation and presented in tables. The validity and reliability of the instrument was determined by Cronbach. The results showed that E-performance management had a significant effect on the performance of Saccos. The study therefore recommended that firms should improve more on data management in areas of performance assessment to allow for timely and speedy delivery of services to the employees.
