IMPACT OF TRAINING AND DEVELOPMENT ON THE PERFORMANCE OF EMPLOYEES IN THE WORKPLACE, THE CASE OF UNILEVER PLC

ABSTRACT

The research embarked on a comprehensive exploration of the impact of training and development on employee performance, employing Unilever as a case study. Utilizing a survey method, the study engaged 110 respondents, and their responses were meticulously analyzed. To assess the influence of training and development on employee performance, a correlation analysis was deployed to rigorously test the formulated hypotheses. The findings yielded compelling results, revealing a significant and positive correlation between the content of training programs and employee performance. Additionally, the study brought to light another noteworthy discovery â€“ a substantial and favorable association between employee performance and development programs. Building upon these insights, the study proposes practical recommendations for organizations aiming to enhance their workforce's capabilities. The first recommendation emphasizes the importance of regularly evaluating a company's skill set. Through consistent skill assessments, areas of inadequacy can be identified, paving the way for targeted training initiatives tailored to each employee's specific responsibilities. Furthermore, the study underscores the significance of conducting job-specific training, aligning these training techniques with available resources, organizational structure, and corporate culture. By implementing these recommendations, companies can proactively address skill gaps and cultivate a workforce that continually contributes to organizational success.
