IMPACT OF HUMAN RESOURCES MANAGEMENT ON TOTAL QUALITY MANAGEMENT

 

ABSTRACT

In the service industry, the success or failure of the organisation depends on how they fulfill consumers’ needs and wants. The main purpose of this study is to determine the impact human resource management on total quality management. This study in an assessment of the purpose used deductive approach in which qualitative and quantitative surveys were carried out on the employees and patients in the U.I.T.H. The survey was intended to get their responses on what they feel about the quality of services they get from the hospital. In this light, the study sets to identify the perception of employees and patients about the implementation of TQM by HRM. A sample size of 100 respondents comprising both in and outpatients was chosen from  whom information to measure their perception about services quality in the UITH as a result of impact of human resource management on total quality management were captured. Similarly, a sample of 50 staffers of the institution was also selected to elicit data on the views of employees towards the implementation of total quality management through human resource management. A biased sample of one hundred patients, i.e. fifty in and out patients was selected until the desired sample size is reached depending on the condition and disposition of the patients. While fifty staffers were randomly selected from the staff population. Simple random sampling involves selecting cases (staffers) until the desired sample size is reached. The result of the study indicates that there is a positive linear relationship between sex of patients has effect on their perception towards the quality of service received. The co-efficient of correlation(r=0.098) is weak. Though, the relationship is weak but it is positive, HRM on Total Quality Management  raises the level service received by patient variance is being explained only 1% (r2 = 0.010), though significant at  < 0.05. The analysis from the empirical findings showed that irrespective of cadre of the employee, it does not affect their perception about the impact of HRM on TQM. It was also discovered that the area of specialty of employee had effect on their perception on the impact HRM has on TQM. Patients, irrespective of their status i.e. inpatients or outpatients has no effect on how they perceive the impact of HRM on TQM. Most patients agree to the fact that service quality has improved in the hospital when compared to previous years before the implementation of TQM through HRM. It was also discovered that the mortality rate had drastically reduced when comparing mortality rates from previous years to rates obtainable since the implementation of TQM through HRM. From the analysis of the survey results, some recommendations for University of Ilorin Teaching Hospital Service Improvement  program will be made to help the organization manage its brand better and to sustain and improve the quality of its services.

 

CHAPTER ONE

INTRODUCTION

1.1 BACKGROUND TO THE STUDY

The concept of quality has existed for many years, though it’s meaning has changed and evolved over time. In the early twentieth century, quality management meant inspecting products to ensure that they met specifications. In the 1940s, during World War II, quality became more statistical in nature. Statistical sampling techniques were used to evaluate quality, and quality control charts were used to monitor the production process. In the 1960s, with the help of so-called "quality gurus," the concept took on a broader meaning. Quality began to be viewed as something that encompassed the entire organization, not only the production process. Since all functional were responsible for product quality and all shared the costs of poor quality, quality was seen as a concept that affected the entire organization. Wilkinson (2008), the meaning of quality for businesses changed dramatically in the late 1970s. Before  then,  quality  was  still  viewed  as  something  that  needed  to be  inspected  and corrected. However, in the 1970s and 1980s many U.S. industries lost market share to foreign competition for examples in the auto industry, manufacturers such as Toyota and Honda became major players. In the consumer goods market, companies such as Toshiba and Sony led the way. These foreign competitors were producing lower-priced products with considerably higher quality.

The term used for today's new concept of quality is total quality management orTQM. You can see that the old concept is reactive, designed to correct quality problems after they occur. Employees in a service organization and particularly, those who have frequent contacts with the customer usually serve as representatives of both the organization and their products or services to the customer at contact point. The quality of the service and the satisfaction the customer may derive will be an assessment of the entire service experience.

Employees who are empowered in an organization can either portray a positive or negative picture to the customers. Considering that, a satisfied customer and employee are of important value to the organization; it therefore, becomes the duty of the management to put in place a system that would ultimately generate either satisfaction, or dissatisfaction from their customers and employees. Since the employees have a major role to play in determining, whether a customer would enjoy the experience or turn to their competitors for better solutions. This according to Baruch (1998), forces organizations to re-think their strategy” because as Zeithaml (2006) points out, companies today recognize that they can compete more effectively by distinguishing themselves with respect to service quality and improved customer satisfaction.

Developments in clinical procedures, technologies, laws have called for hospitals to search for new strategies and structures. Decreasing markets, increasing demands and changed customer attitudes, regulations, as well as the growing global competition in recent years, make up the causes of change in the markets hospitals are competing on. Product and  service  quality  are  ranked  high,  private  and  public  companies providing  quality certificates  and  total  quality  management  deriving  from  this development.  Wilkinson (1998). Others have expressed the quality development asthe end of mass and the start of a new production paradigm, based upon flexible specialization Piore and Sabel (1984). In view of the prevailing trend, increased service quality and a higher degree of liability towards customers no longer remain amere possibility but are essential if market shares are to be retained and further developed.

According to Oakland (1993), quality management is driven by the competiteve environment and is universal for all types of organizations:” Whatever type of organizations you are working in a  hospital,  universities,  bank,  insurance  company,  airline  company,  students, or  whatever company you are workingin–competition is common: Competition among customers, resources etc. Very few organizations do not seequality as a most important element in the battle for competitive advantages. The management interest in quality is not new but using quality as a keyelement in the battle for competitive advantages is of recent date. Oakland (1989)claims that after the industrial revolution, and the computer revolution in the beginning of the 1980’s, we are now in the midst of a quality revolution. Surveys conducted  by  various  organizations  have  revealed  an  increase  in quality movements. These include the movement best known as total quality management; this has been widely acknowledged as a major innovation in management theory. The approach to or the philosophy of total quality management is, however, not obvious. Even Deming acknowledged that he did not know what it meant precisely Boje (1993). There are a number of reasons for this ambiguity. The first problem is todefine the concept quality.

I actually googled and saw about iproject master, copied the number and contacted them through WhatsApp to ask for the availability of the material and to my luck they have it. So there was a delay with the project due to the covid19 pandemic. I was really scared before making the payment cause I’ve been scammed twice, they attended so well to me and that made me trust the process and made the payment and provided them with proof, I got my material in less than 10minutes
