Revolutionizing Teacher Productivity: Unravelling the Secret of High-Performance Work System in Strategic Human Resource Management

Abstract

High-performance work systems (HPWS) have been a topic of interest in various industries, but their impact on teachers’ productivity in Nigeria is a crucial area of study. The education sector in Nigeria faces numerous challenges, including inadequate resources, large class sizes, and limited professional development opportunities. In addressing the challenges, this research was conducted to seek their perception of the role of HPWS on teacher’s productivity. Data were collected from the six educational districts of public schools, among 492 teachers in Lagos, Nigeria. The data was analyzed using Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) and Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA). The findings provide new insights into the value of HPWS in SHRM in the education sector. The result showed that implementing high-performance work systems in this context could potentially lead to improved teacher productivity, benefiting both educators and students alike.
