INVESTIGATION OF FACTORS INFLUENCING EMPLOYEE PERFORMANCE USING STRUCTURAL EQUATION MODELING
This paper focuses on employee performance and the factors that influence them. Employee performance is the key indicator of an organisation success rate. In this era of globalisation, the companies have a cut throat competition and it has a major impact on employee performance. In today’s growing competition every organisation is in a state to identify and recognise the internal human element (i.e.,) human resource. This will definitely impact and increase the organisational performance. The purpose of this study is to identify the factors that influence employee performance using the structural equation modelling. A theoretical framework was developed using different factors that will have an impact on employee’s performance. The factors identified for the study are perceived social responsibility, perceived organisational responsibility, Employee Satisfaction, Leadership and Recognition along with the dependent factor, Employee Performance. Quantitative analysis was done to identify the factors that influence the employee performance. A structured questionnaire was circulated among 452 employees and 300 samples were taken into consideration for the study from different automotive companies in Chennai. Analysis was done mainly through structural equation modelling and the highest and lowest influencing factors were identified.
