Abstract
Job rotation is a movement of employees from one task to another at a given time period. Offering job rotation to employees in a different way has become an important strategy to enhance employees’ job performance in any organization and make them more committed towards their tasks. However, there are limited empirical studies focus on job rotation and employees job performance in banking sector. Similarly, there is no consensus among scholars about aforementioned relationship. Therefore, this study was conducted as a comparative study between private and public banks in order to identify the relationship and the impact of job rotation practices on employees’ job performance with reference to the domestic licensed commercial banks. Data were collected by using convenient sampling method and the sample consisted of fifty bank employees from public licensed commercial banks and fifty bank employees from private licensed commercial banks from the Colombo district. Data analysis was performed using Descriptive Statistics, Pearson Correlation analysis and Multiple Regression analysis. Results of the analysis indicated that, job rotation practices significantly and positively associate with employees’ job performance in private and public banks. Multiple regression analysis discovered that cross functional job rotation is the most significant factor of employees’ job performance among private and public banks. Outcomes of this study provided implications like enhancing available literature, to understand the real impact of job rotation on employees’ job performance to managers which drive them to enhance the better rotational activities. This study also suggests some further research areas for future research.
