The Impact of Training and Development on Employee Performance

Abstract

This research is about understanding the role of training and development in improving employee performance at Bank Al Habib. The study was mainly carried out to check if training sessions and development activities actually help employees do their jobs better in the banking sector. For this purpose, a quantitative method was followed. The data was gathered through a questionnaire that had 26 questions. These questions were related to employee training, development practices, and overall job performance. The study was conducted using a sample of 150 employees working at Bank Al Habib. After collecting the data, it was analyzed with statistical techniques similar to SPSS, such as descriptive statistics, reliability testing, correlation, and regression analysis. The results showed that both training and development have a positive and significant effect on employee performance. However, development was found to have a slightly stronger impact when compared to training. The reliability test also showed that the questionnaire was consistent, while the correlation results indicated strong positive relationships between the study variables. Overall, the findings highlight that continuous training and development programs play an important role in improving employee efficiency, productivity, and job performance. The study concludes that proper investment in human resource development is very important for improving organizational performance in the banking sector. Based on these results, practical recommendations have been suggested for Bank Al Habib to further improve its training and development practices.
