Abstract
Human Resource (HR) is the most important asset for any organization and it is the source of achieving competitive advantage. Without having the adequate human resource, the organization will be unable to achieve established goals and objectives. The main aim of this study is attempted to assess the Human Resource Management practicies of the Dire Dawa Administration Youth & Sport Commission. Using a cross-sectional study design 80 participants were recruited as a sample size using the census surveys. The findings show that there are gaps in HRM practices regardless of HR manager’s high level of education in their respective job fields. On this ground, it has been concluded that Dire Dawa Administration Youth & Sport Commission managers and supervisors need additional HR-related skills and knowledge to carry out HRM functions and therefore, an organized effort from the organization and other concerned bodies is of paramount importance to address this lack of HR management capacity. Based on the findings of this study, recruitment, performance appraisal, training and development, and compensation were the main variables that attract, motivate and retain employees in organizations. Therefore, Dire Dawa Administration Youth & Sport Commission should work toward improving the HRM practices to achieve the goal of the organization.
