Abstract:
The study examined and considered the role of Human Resource Management in promoting industrial harmony in organization in Nigeria using the Local Government Administration in the South West States of Nigeria. The research method adopted for this study was survey and documentary analysis. the survey research involved collection of data from existing records and findings of the opinion on the subject through the use of structured questionnaire. Stratified sampling technique was used to select the respondents for the study. The instrument was validated and pilot-tested to ascertain the internal consistency. The internal consistency of the questionnaire was determined using Cronbach Alpha. The reliability coefficient of the questionnaire was 0.77. data obtained were analyzed using mean, frequency count, percentages and one-way analysis of variance. A large proportion of the respondents indicated that a sound basis of employer-employee relations which is essential for Industrial Harmony is the creation of a well established understanding that the two parties are in the pursuit of a common goal and that in this pursuit, their roles are complementary. The study is also of the view that most organization conflicts and industrial disharmony result from lack of knowledge and proper understanding of the facts due to inadequate or complete absence of communication. Therefore, the study is of the view that adequate communication and review of achievement on organization objectives and goals may be a flexible way of establishing and continuing the job cycle necessary to get the work done, maintain peace and industrial harmony.
