Recruitment of Personnel Affecting the Performance of Employees in the Alternative Energy Development and Efficiency Department

Abstract

This study investigates the relationship between personnel recruitment and employee performance in the Alternative Energy Development and Efficiency Department. A survey of 160 employees revealed that the department’s workforce is predominantly male (47.3%), aged 26–30, holding bachelor’s degrees, earning 15,000–20,000 THB monthly, with 2–3 years of experience. Recruitment practices across four dimensions—human resource planning, personnel selection, recruitment methods, and job description—were rated at a high level overall. Employee performance was also high across work quality, time, workload, and cost. Statistical analysis indicated no multicollinearity among predictors (correlation < 0.80), and a regression model was developed: Employee Performance = 0.725 + (0.535 × Job Description) + (0.271 × Recruitment Method), explaining 66.6% of variance. Job description and recruitment method were significant predictors. Recommendations include enhancing recruitment strategies aligned with employee and organizational needs.
