In recent years, Human Resource Management has assumed an increasingly strategic role in shaping employee attitudes and enhancing organizational effectiveness. Employees’ perceptions towards HR functions significantly influence their level of job satisfaction, motivation, and overall engagement within the workplace. Understanding these perceptions enables organizations to evaluate the effectiveness of their HR practices and identify areas for improvement.The present study titled “A Study on Employees’ Attitudinal Assessment of HR Functions” aims to examine employees’ perceptions towards recruitment and selection practices, analyse the relationship between HR functions and job satisfaction, and observe employees’ attitudes towards performance management. The study adopts a descriptive research design, and a convenience sampling method was used to collect data from 117 respondents. Both primary and secondary sources of data were utilized for the study.Primary data was collected through a structured questionnaire administered to employees, while secondary data was obtained from scholarly publications, internet sources, and other relevant academic materials. For the purpose of analysing the collected data, statistical tools such as percentage analysis, ANOVA, correlation, and regression analysis were employed.The findings indicate that employees generally hold favourable perceptions towards the organization’s HR practices, particularly in areas related to recruitment communication, fairness in the selection process, and clarity in performance evaluation. The results also reveal a significant relationship between HR practices and employees’ job satisfaction, emphasizing the importance of effective HR functions in fostering positive employee attitudes within the organization.
