A STUDY ON HUMAN CAPITAL MANAGEMENT PRACTICES AND ORGANIZATIONAL PERFORMANCE IN DOITER CASTING
This study examines the impact of Human Capital Management (HCM) practices on organizational performance at Doiter Casting, a medium-sized ferrous foundry located in Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu. Recognizing employees as strategic assets, the research investigates the relationship between HCM dimensions—including recruitment, training, appraisal, compensation, engagement, working conditions, and grievance handling—and key organizational performance outcomes. A descriptive research design was adopted and primary data was collected from all 260 employees through a structured questionnaire using the census method, achieving a response rate of 100 percent. Statistical tools including percentage analysis, Chi-Square test, Pearson correlation, and One-Way ANOVA were employed. Results reveal a strong positive correlation (r = 0.682) between HCM practices and organizational performance. Training, safety, and team collaboration emerged as the strongest dimensions, while career growth and incentive systems require targeted improvement.
