ABSTRACT
This study investigated employee resourcing and service delivery in selected
ministries in Enugu State. The study specifically examined the effect of core
activities of employee resourcing (ER) which was decomposed into Human
Resource Planning (HRP), Recruitment process, Selection & induction,
Performance management, Learning & development and Recognition &
reward to ascertain their effect on employees’ service delivery in Enugu State
using an econometric regression model of the ordinary least square. Findings
revealed thatHumanResourcePlanning(HRP),Recruitmentprocess, Selection
& induction, Performance management, Learning & development and
Recognition & reward significantly influence employees’ service delivery in
Enugu State. Based on the findings the study recommends that Enugu State
Civil Service should adhere strictly to the procedure of personnel recruitment
and also vigorously follow the core activities of employee resourcing (ER) in
the recruitment and retention process to ensure qualityservicedeliveryin the
state.
INTRODUCTION
Employees are very important assets of an organization whose well
management together with commitment and employmentofotherassetsof the
organization, facilitate to the realization of the organizational objectives. It is
through their deliberate efforts other assets like machines can be used to
produce the expected products. In other words, nomatter howmuchisinvested
in technology and other modern assets, the achievementof organizationalgoals
and realization of its objectives, highly depends on the effective utilization of
qualified and committed human resource as drivers of other resources.
The focus of this study is employee resourcing and service
delivery. Although employee resourcingisdefinedinvarious
ways and different writers have drawn various boundaries
around it, the core areas concerned is getting the right
people (with appropriate experience, skills, knowledge and
other attributes) in the right place at the right time.
Armstrong (2012) opines that the term is used as people
resourcing, employee resourcing or simply resourcing. It is
used to cover employment activities that focus on an
organization having the people it needs, and deals with
employee turnover and absenteeism issues. The core
activities of employee resourcing (ER) include human
resource planning (HRP) and moving
towards recruitment, selection and induction, performance
management, learning and development, as well as
recognition and reward. These activities, whether by micro,
small, medium, private, public, manufacturing, service or
multinational organizations, are conducted in a rapidly
changing context. It is significantly about aligning the
employees with the strategic and operational needs of the
organization and ensuring full utilization of the resources.
Armstrong (2001) notes further that it goes beyond
obtaining and keeping the number and quality of the
required personnel, but also deals with selecting and
promoting people who ‘fit’ the culture and the strategic
needs of the organization. In this study, the author defines
employee resourcing as the systematic process of realizing
the need to plan for people (HRP), acquiring them through
recruitment and selection (R&S), retaining through
membership motivation (M) and putting them to the most
effective use through employee motivation to higher
productivity in order to help the organization achieve its
goals.
Statement of the Problem
This study is was informed by publicoutcryontheperceived
poor service delivery from the employees of the Enugu Civil
Service, Enugu State, which also cuts across other states of
the federation. Service delivery in the Nigeria public sector
has not been a success story. Rather, the Nigeria public
sector has repeatedly been on the rating list of the
Corruption Perceptions IndexofTransparencyInternational
as one of the most corrupt public sector of the world
(Transparency International, 2017).Arguably,theperceived
poor service delivery is not unconnected with employee
resourcing. Employees are very important assets of an
organization whose well management together with
commitment and employment of other assets of the

organization, facilitate to the realization of the
organizational objectives. It is through their deliberate
efforts other assets like machines can beusedtoproducethe
expected products. In other words, no matter how much is
invested in technology and other modern assets, the
achievement of organizational goals and realization of its
objectives, highly depends on the effective utilization of
qualified and committed human resource as driversof other
resources. According to Olatunji and Ugoji (2013), there is
little or nothing wrong in the normal processes of personnel
recruitment but the mode and pattern of following the
processes of personnel recruitment is what creates a
problem in workplaces. Most organisations refuse toadhere
strictly to the procedure of personnel recruitment while
some adhere to it but allow a lot of influences to affect their
personnel recruitment activities. This tends to affect
individual worker performance and the organisational
development. Against this backdrop, this study therefore
examines employee resourcing and service delivery in
selected ministries in Enugu State.
Objectives of the Study
This study examines employee resourcing and service
delivery in selected ministries in Enugu State. The study
specifically modelled the effect of core activitiesof employee
resourcing (ER) which was decomposed into: - Human
Resource Planning (HRP), Recruitment process, Selection &
induction, Performance management, Learning &
development and Recognition & reward- on employees
service delivery in Enugu State.
Employee Resourcing
As cited by Onyeizugbe, Orogbu, and Ike (2016), employee
resourcing is part of HRM that focuses on the recruitment
and release of individuals from organizations, as well as the
management of their performance and potential while
employed by the organization (Pilbeem & Corbridge, 2002).
Employee resourcing strategies exist to provide the people
and skills required to support the business strategy; it is
concerned with any means available tomeettheneedsofthe
firm for certain skills and behaviour (Armstrong, 2010).
Employee resourcing holds the key to success of any
organization since it ensures that the right person fit to do
the job is acquired in the organization (Kavoo-Linge&Kiruri,
2013). It is concerned with the procedures of obtaining and
retaining a workforce with the necessary skills,
competences, training, attitudes, knowledge, ethics and
values (Karemu, Gikera & Josee, 2014). This is because the
organization only hires and retains the right manpower in
order to increase its performance (Majumber, 2012; John,
2008). Abomeh (2013) contends that if clear resourcing
procedure is followed based on practices then the
organization is bound to outperform other businesses inthe
industry. The core activities of employee resourcing (ER)
include human resource planning (HRP) and moving
towards recruitment, selection and induction, performance
management, learning and development, as well as
recognition and reward. It is significantly about aligning the
employees with the strategic and operational needs of the
organization and ensuring full utilization of the resources.
Ogunyomi and Ojikutu(2014)defineemployee resourcingas
the systematic process of realizing the need to plan for
people (HRP), acquiring them through recruitment and
selection (R&S) retaining through membership motivation
(M) and putting them to the most effective use through
employee motivation to higher productivity in ordertohelp
the organization achieve its goals.
Related Empirical Literature
Anya, Umoh and Worlu (2017) investigatedhuman resource
planning and organizational performancein oilandgasfirms
in Port Harcourt Using the spearman rank order correlation
coefficient, we found out that there is a significant
relationship between human resource planning and
organizational performance and that the relationship
between the variables is moderated by organizational
structure. Ezeodili and Nebo (2017) examined thepolitics of
performance appraisal in Enugu State Civil Service
Commission and Employee Service Delivery using
descriptive statistics and chi square non parametric
statistical test. Findings revealed that Enugu State Civil
Service Commission has had disagreement in the past with
its employees as a result of bias in performance appraisal. It
was discovered that the Commission the result of staff
appraisal was scarcely used in taking decision of employee
promotion. Zirra, Ogbu and Ojo (2017) examined the
recruitment and selection strategy on the employee
performance in the real sector using descriptive survey
research design. The inferential statistics used is the “one
sample T-test” to find the level of relationship between
recruitment/selection strategy and employee performance.
The study revealed that the use of recruitment agency and
internal employee recommendation in the
recruitment/selection process enables organization to
recruit committed and productive employees while the
recruitment through the influence of host community leads
to organizational inefficiency. Onyeizugbe, Orogbu, and Ike
(2016) examined employee resourcing and performance of
selected oil and gas companies in Rivers State of Nigeria
using descriptive statistics and Pearson Product Moment
Correlation analysis. Findings of the study revealed that
unbiased team deployment strategy can help to sustain
service delivery in the oil and gas companies. The study also
concludes that an adhoc and largely reactive approach to
employee resourcing prevails within the industry in Rivers
State. Ohaeri and Chukwu (2016) examined manpower
development and employee service delivery: A study of
Enugu State Local Government Service Commission using
percentages, frequent tables and using Chisquaremethod. It
was discovered among other things that, staff training will
improve employee’s performance in Awka-South Local
Government Area. It was observed that management makes
effort towards ensuring adequate staff training, and that
Staff training will have a significant effect on the output and
service delivery of staff of Enugu State Local Government.
Kemboi and Onyango (2015) examined the effects of
employee resourcing and development practices on
organization performance in public secondary schools in
Rachuonyo South Sub County using descriptive statistics,
correlation statistics and regression analysis. The study
found employee resourcing to correlated (r=0.134) with
organization performance. However the relationship was
insignificant (p=0.163). The study also found out that
employee training and development policies positively and
significant affects organizational performance. Using
descriptive statistics, correlation analysis, ANOVA and
regression analysis, Katua, Mukulu and Gachunga (2014)
examined the effect of employeeresourcingstrategiesonthe
performance of commercial banks in Kenya.Theyfound that
employee resourcing (recruitment, selection, induction and
human resource planning) strategies have a significant
positive effect on performance of commercial banks in
Kenya. The study established that banks are currently
emphasizing on the recruitment of people with high

academic qualifications. Therefore, bank performance is
influenced by specific HRM related actions. From this study
it is concluded that recruitment, selection, induction and
human resource planning strategiescan combineto enhance
firm performance. Based on the findings, it is also concluded
that there is a positive relationship between strategic
employee resourcing and employee performance among
commercial banks in Kenya. Cania (2014) investigated the
impact of strategic human resource management on
organizational performance using descriptive statistics.
Findings revealed that the organizations had proven that
there is significantly change their performance through
strategic management of human resources while they also
admitted that the organization had beenexperiencingminor
changes in their performance. Ogunyomi andOjikutu(2014)
examined employee resourcing and performance of small
and medium enterprises in Lagos State using descriptive
statistics and regression analysis. They found that although
there is a mild association (0.113) between employee
resourcing and performance, it is not strong enough to
predict the performance of the sampled SMEs. Most of the
owners/managers interviewed opined that retaining
employees was one of their greatest challenges but not
strong enough to determine thelevelof their performance as
they have always envisaged that some of theirstaffcanleave
the organization. Sule and Ugoji (2013) examined the
processes through which personnel are recruited into
organisation and the impacts of the personnel recruitment
on the organisationaldevelopmentusingtheSpearmanRank
correlation Co-efficient, percentage, mean scores and
standard deviation. The findings of the study revealed
certain recruitment procedures adopted in organisations. It
also revealed that the recruitment procedures used in the
organisation influence personnel behaviour and
performance to a large extent. It further established those
factors militating against recruitment processes in
organisations as well as its consequences on the personnel
and organisational development. Gberevbie (2011) carried
out an appraisal of staff recruitmentand retentionpolicies of
Delta State Civil Service in Nigeria using descriptive
statistics. The result shows among others that policies on
staff recruitment in the State Civil Service is a mixture of
merit, political consideration, element of ‘godfatherism’ and
equal representation of citizens.
From the literature reviewed studies on employees
resourcing are rife with researchers investigating the
concept/phenomenafrom variousstand points.Forexample,
Anya, Umoh and Worlu (2017) investigatedhuman resource
planning and organizational performancein oilandgasfirms
in Port Harcourt. Onyeizugbe, Orogbu and Ike (2016)
examined employee resourcing and performanceof selected
oil and gas companies in Rivers State of Nigeria. Kemboiand
Onyango (2015) examined the effects of employee
resourcing and development practices on organization
performance in public secondary schools in Rachuonyo
South Sub County. Katua, Mukulu and Gachunga (2014)
examined the effect of employee resourcingstrategiesonthe
performance of commercial banks in Kenya. Cania (2014)
investigated the impact of strategic human resource
management on organizational performance and Ogunyomi
and Ojikutu (2014) examined employee resourcing and
performance of small and medium enterprises in Lagos
State. However, the need for this study arises from the fact
that there is paucity of empirical study on employees
resourcing and service delivery in the civil service
particularly in Enugu State civilservice.In otherwords,none
of the studies reviewed were carried out in Enugu State.
Again, none of the studies measured that effectof employees
resourcing on service delivery particularly in the civil
service. This study therefore fills the knowledge and
literature gap by investigating employee resourcing and
service delivery in selected ministries in Enugu State
Methodology
This section on methodology deals with research design,
population of the study, samplesizeand samplingtechnique,
method of data collection, validity of the instrument and
method of data analysis.
Research Design
This research work adopts is a descriptive survey research
design. It is concerned with the collection of data for the
purpose of describing and interpreting existingphenomena.
It involved sampling by using structured questionnaire to
elicit data that were analyzed so as to get an insight into the
topic under consideration.
Population of the Study
It is imperative in any study todeterminethegroup orthings
or persons to be studied. Population of a study has been
described in the literature as the “aggregate of individual
persons or objects for investigation, or the sum total of the
unit of analysis”( Okeke, 2005; Chukwuemeka, 2006).
Generally, two main characteristics of the population are
that it can be finite or infinite (Chukwuemeka & Oji, 1999;
Okeke, 2001, Hair et al, 2005, Agbonifoh and Yomere,1999).
In the present study, the population comprises of employees
of five selected ministries in Enugu State Civil Service. The
total numbers of workers as the time of this study from the
ministries are one thousand twohundredeleven (1211). The
ministries that are randomly selected are ministry of
agriculture, ministry of education, ministry of finance,
ministry of health and ministry of justice.
Sample Size and Sampling Technique
To determine the sample size, for the purpose of
questionnaire distribution; the Taro Yamani formula was
used. The formula is stated thus: n = N
1+N (e)2
Where:
N = sample size
N = population
E = Margin of error (5% or 0.05)
I = Constant
Substituting in the above formula:
n = 121
1+ 1211(0.05)2
= 1211
1+ 1211(0.0025)
= 1211
1+ 1211(0.0025)
= 1211
3.0245
n ∼ 400
Method of Data Collection
The instrument used for the data collection was
questionnaire which was designed and administered to the
employees of the Enugu State civil service - which serve as
the sample size of the study.

Method of data Analysis
The data obtained were analyzed using regression analysis
and they were presented in the subsequent section. The
analysis of the responses of the staff of the Enugu State Civil
Service - which serves as the sample size of the study were
analyzed using four point summative scale response
categories of SA= Strongly Agreed, A= Agreed, D= Disagreed
and SD-strongly Disagree. By so doing the respondents will
be able to tick the option of their choice. Any item withmean
value of 2.5 and above was regarded as agreed while items
which have a mean value below 2.5 was regarded as
disagree. Out of the400questionnairesthatweredistributed
only 372 were dully completed and returned.
The model for the study is stated as follows:
The model is implicitly specified as follows;
Y = f(x1, x2, x3 ……. Xn + ei) eq(1)
The model is explicitly specified as follows;
Y = α+β1x1 + β2x2 + β3x3 + β4x4 ……. βkxk + ε eq(2)
Where:
α = intercept
Y = Consumers patronage (frequency of patronising the
bakery).
Y =α + β1X1 + β2 X2 + β3 X3 + β4 X4 + β4 X5+ β6 X6 + ε …eq(3)
The included variables X1-X6 represent Human Resource
Planning (HRP), Recruitment process, Selection &induction,
Performance management, Learning & development and
Recognition & reward. β1 – β6 are the slope coefficients of the
regressors, α represents the vertical intercept and ε the
stochastic residual term designed to capture the effects of
unspecified variables in the model, which is normally
distributed with a mean value of zero.

Dependent Variable: Employee Service Delivery
To ascertain the effect of Employee Resourcing on Service
Delivery in selected Ministries in Enugu State, the weighted
mean of the six independent variableswereregressedon the
dependent variable to enable us determine the nature of
relationship between the dependent and independent
variables, effect of the six independent variables on the
dependent variable, the overallfitnessof themodelusingthe
F-statistics and probability valueand thelevelof significance
of the independent variables in influencing the dependent
variables using the t-test and probability value. The table
above shows the regression result. It also shows the
precision of the model which was analyzed usingeconomica
priori criteria and statistical criteria.
Discussion of Findings
Discussion based on economic a priori criteria
Discussion using this criterion enables us to determine the
nature of relationship between the dependent and
independent variables. In this case, the sign and magnitude
of each variable coefficient are evaluated against theoretical
or economic a priori criteria/expectations. As showed inthe
table 3, it is observed that the regression line has a positive
intercept as presented by the constant (c) = 5.477. This
means that if all the variables are held constant or fixed
(zero), employee servicedeliverywillincreasesby5.4%. The
result also conforms to the a priori expectation. This states
that the intercept could be positive or negative, so it
conforms to the theoretical expectation (Gujarati, 2008). All
the coefficients (Human Resource Planning (HRP),
Recruitment process, Selection & induction, Performance
management, Learning & development and Recognition &
reward) have positive and significant effect on service
delivery.
Discussion based on statistical criteria
In order to evaluate the effect of Employee Resourcing on
Service Delivery in selected Ministries in Enugu State, the
analysis was also done based on statistical criteria by
applying the coefficient of determination(R2)and theF–test.
In general, the joint effect of the explanatory variables-
independent variables-in the model account for 0.763 or
76.3% of the variations in the employees service delivery.
This implies that 76.3% of the variations in the employees
service delivery is being accounted for or explained by the
variations in Human Resource Planning (HRP), Recruitment
process, Selection & induction, Performance management,
Learning & development and Recognition & reward, while
other independent variables not captured in the model
explain just 23.7% of the variations in theemployeesservice
delivery.
Summary of Findings,Conclusion andrecommendations
In the final analysis, this study has investigated employee
resourcing and service delivery in selected ministries in
Enugu State. The study specifically modelled the effect of
core activities of employee resourcing (ER) which was

The study specifically examined the effect of core activities of employee resourcing (ER) which was decomposed into Human Resource Planning (HRP), Recruitment process, Selection & induction, Performance management, Learning & development and Recognition & reward to ascertain their effect on employees’ service delivery in Enugu State using an econometric regression model of the ordinary least square. Findings revealed thatHumanResourcePlanning(HRP),Recruitmentprocess, Selection & induction, Performance management, Learning & development and Recognition & reward significantly influence employees’ service delivery in Enugu State. Based on the findings the study recommends that Enugu State Civil Service should adhere strictly to the procedure of personnel recruitment and also vigorously follow the core activities of employee resourcing (ER) in the recruitment and retention process to ensure qualityservicedeliveryin the state. INTRODUCTION Employees are very important assets of an organization whose well management together with commitment and employmentofotherassetsof the organization, facilitate to the realization of the organizational objectives. It is through their deliberate efforts other assets like machines can be used to produce the expected products. In other words, nomatter howmuchisinvested in technology and other modern assets, the achievementof organizationalgoals and realization of its objectives, highly depends on the effective utilization of qualified and committed human resource as drivers of other resources. The focus of this study is employee resourcing and service delivery. Although employee resourcingisdefinedinvarious ways and different writers have drawn various boundaries around it, the core areas concerned is getting the right people (with appropriate experience, skills, knowledge and other attributes) in the right place at the right time. Armstrong (2012) opines that the term is used as people resourcing, employee resourcing or simply resourcing. It is used to cover employment activities that focus on an organization having the people it needs, and deals with employee turnover and absenteeism issues. The core activities of employee resourcing (ER) include human resource planning (HRP) and moving towards recruitment, selection and induction, performance management, learning and development, as well as recognition and reward. These activities, whether by micro, small, medium, private, public, manufacturing, service or multinational organizations, are conducted in a rapidly changing context. It is significantly about aligning the employees with the strategic and operational needs of the organization and ensuring full utilization of the resources. Armstrong (2001) notes further that it goes beyond obtaining and keeping the number and quality of the required personnel, but also deals with selecting and promoting people who ‘fit’ the culture and the strategic needs of the organization. In this study, the author defines employee resourcing as the systematic process of realizing the need to plan for people (HRP), acquiring them through recruitment and selection (R&S), retaining through membership motivation (M) and putting them to the most effective use through employee motivation to higher productivity in order to help the organization achieve its goals. Statement of the Problem This study is was informed by publicoutcryontheperceived poor service delivery from the employees of the Enugu Civil Service, Enugu State, which also cuts across other states of the federation. Service delivery in the Nigeria public sector has not been a success story. Rather, the Nigeria public sector has repeatedly been on the rating list of the Corruption Perceptions IndexofTransparencyInternational as one of the most corrupt public sector of the world (Transparency International, 2017).Arguably,theperceived poor service delivery is not unconnected with employee resourcing. Employees are very important assets of an organization whose well management together with commitment and employment of other assets of the IJTSRD25297

It is through their deliberate efforts other assets like machines can beusedtoproducethe expected products. In other words, no matter how much is invested in technology and other modern assets, the achievement of organizational goals and realization of its objectives, highly depends on the effective utilization of qualified and committed human resource as driversof other resources. According to Olatunji and Ugoji (2013), there is little or nothing wrong in the normal processes of personnel recruitment but the mode and pattern of following the processes of personnel recruitment is what creates a problem in workplaces. Most organisations refuse toadhere strictly to the procedure of personnel recruitment while some adhere to it but allow a lot of influences to affect their personnel recruitment activities. This tends to affect individual worker performance and the organisational development. Against this backdrop, this study therefore examines employee resourcing and service delivery in selected ministries in Enugu State. Objectives of the Study This study examines employee resourcing and service delivery in selected ministries in Enugu State. The study specifically modelled the effect of core activitiesof employee resourcing (ER) which was decomposed into: - Human Resource Planning (HRP), Recruitment process, Selection & induction, Performance management, Learning & development and Recognition & reward- on employees service delivery in Enugu State. Employee Resourcing As cited by Onyeizugbe, Orogbu, and Ike (2016), employee resourcing is part of HRM that focuses on the recruitment and release of individuals from organizations, as well as the management of their performance and potential while employed by the organization (Pilbeem & Corbridge, 2002). Employee resourcing strategies exist to provide the people and skills required to support the business strategy; it is concerned with any means available tomeettheneedsofthe firm for certain skills and behaviour (Armstrong, 2010). Employee resourcing holds the key to success of any organization since it ensures that the right person fit to do the job is acquired in the organization (Kavoo-Linge&Kiruri, 2013). It is concerned with the procedures of obtaining and retaining a workforce with the necessary skills, competences, training, attitudes, knowledge, ethics and values (Karemu, Gikera & Josee, 2014). This is because the organization only hires and retains the right manpower in order to increase its performance (Majumber, 2012; John, 2008). Abomeh (2013) contends that if clear resourcing procedure is followed based on practices then the organization is bound to outperform other businesses inthe industry. The core activities of employee resourcing (ER) include human resource planning (HRP) and moving towards recruitment, selection and induction, performance management, learning and development, as well as recognition and reward. It is significantly about aligning the employees with the strategic and operational needs of the organization and ensuring full utilization of the resources. Ogunyomi and Ojikutu(2014)defineemployee resourcingas the systematic process of realizing the need to plan for people (HRP), acquiring them through recruitment and selection (R&S) retaining through membership motivation (M) and putting them to the most effective use through employee motivation to higher productivity in ordertohelp the organization achieve its goals. Related Empirical Literature Anya, Umoh and Worlu (2017) investigatedhuman resource planning and organizational performancein oilandgasfirms in Port Harcourt Using the spearman rank order correlation coefficient, we found out that there is a significant relationship between human resource planning and organizational performance and that the relationship between the variables is moderated by organizational structure. Ezeodili and Nebo (2017) examined thepolitics of performance appraisal in Enugu State Civil Service Commission and Employee Service Delivery using descriptive statistics and chi square non parametric statistical test. Findings revealed that Enugu State Civil Service Commission has had disagreement in the past with its employees as a result of bias in performance appraisal. It was discovered that the Commission the result of staff appraisal was scarcely used in taking decision of employee promotion. Zirra, Ogbu and Ojo (2017) examined the recruitment and selection strategy on the employee performance in the real sector using descriptive survey research design. The inferential statistics used is the “one sample T-test” to find the level of relationship between recruitment/selection strategy and employee performance. The study revealed that the use of recruitment agency and internal employee recommendation in the recruitment/selection process enables organization to recruit committed and productive employees while the recruitment through the influence of host community leads to organizational inefficiency. Onyeizugbe, Orogbu, and Ike (2016) examined employee resourcing and performance of selected oil and gas companies in Rivers State of Nigeria using descriptive statistics and Pearson Product Moment Correlation analysis. Findings of the study revealed that unbiased team deployment strategy can help to sustain service delivery in the oil and gas companies. The study also concludes that an adhoc and largely reactive approach to employee resourcing prevails within the industry in Rivers State. Ohaeri and Chukwu (2016) examined manpower development and employee service delivery: A study of Enugu State Local Government Service Commission using percentages, frequent tables and using Chisquaremethod. It was discovered among other things that, staff training will improve employee’s performance in Awka-South Local Government Area. It was observed that management makes effort towards ensuring adequate staff training, and that Staff training will have a significant effect on the output and service delivery of staff of Enugu State Local Government. Kemboi and Onyango (2015) examined the effects of employee resourcing and development practices on organization performance in public secondary schools in Rachuonyo South Sub County using descriptive statistics, correlation statistics and regression analysis. The study found employee resourcing to correlated (r=0.134) with organization performance. However the relationship was insignificant (p=0.163). The study also found out that employee training and development policies positively and significant affects organizational performance. Using descriptive statistics, correlation analysis, ANOVA and regression analysis, Katua, Mukulu and Gachunga (2014) examined the effect of employeeresourcingstrategiesonthe performance of commercial banks in Kenya.Theyfound that employee resourcing (recruitment, selection, induction and human resource planning) strategies have a significant positive effect on performance of commercial banks in Kenya. The study established that banks are currently emphasizing on the recruitment of people with high

Therefore, bank performance is influenced by specific HRM related actions. From this study it is concluded that recruitment, selection, induction and human resource planning strategiescan combineto enhance firm performance. Based on the findings, it is also concluded that there is a positive relationship between strategic employee resourcing and employee performance among commercial banks in Kenya. Cania (2014) investigated the impact of strategic human resource management on organizational performance using descriptive statistics. Findings revealed that the organizations had proven that there is significantly change their performance through strategic management of human resources while they also admitted that the organization had beenexperiencingminor changes in their performance. Ogunyomi andOjikutu(2014) examined employee resourcing and performance of small and medium enterprises in Lagos State using descriptive statistics and regression analysis. They found that although there is a mild association (0.113) between employee resourcing and performance, it is not strong enough to predict the performance of the sampled SMEs. Most of the owners/managers interviewed opined that retaining employees was one of their greatest challenges but not strong enough to determine thelevelof their performance as they have always envisaged that some of theirstaffcanleave the organization. Sule and Ugoji (2013) examined the processes through which personnel are recruited into organisation and the impacts of the personnel recruitment on the organisationaldevelopmentusingtheSpearmanRank correlation Co-efficient, percentage, mean scores and standard deviation. The findings of the study revealed certain recruitment procedures adopted in organisations. It also revealed that the recruitment procedures used in the organisation influence personnel behaviour and performance to a large extent. It further established those factors militating against recruitment processes in organisations as well as its consequences on the personnel and organisational development. Gberevbie (2011) carried out an appraisal of staff recruitmentand retentionpolicies of Delta State Civil Service in Nigeria using descriptive statistics. The result shows among others that policies on staff recruitment in the State Civil Service is a mixture of merit, political consideration, element of ‘godfatherism’ and equal representation of citizens. From the literature reviewed studies on employees resourcing are rife with researchers investigating the concept/phenomenafrom variousstand points.Forexample, Anya, Umoh and Worlu (2017) investigatedhuman resource planning and organizational performancein oilandgasfirms in Port Harcourt. Onyeizugbe, Orogbu and Ike (2016) examined employee resourcing and performanceof selected oil and gas companies in Rivers State of Nigeria. Kemboiand Onyango (2015) examined the effects of employee resourcing and development practices on organization performance in public secondary schools in Rachuonyo South Sub County. Katua, Mukulu and Gachunga (2014) examined the effect of employee resourcingstrategiesonthe performance of commercial banks in Kenya. Cania (2014) investigated the impact of strategic human resource management on organizational performance and Ogunyomi and Ojikutu (2014) examined employee resourcing and performance of small and medium enterprises in Lagos State. However, the need for this study arises from the fact that there is paucity of empirical study on employees resourcing and service delivery in the civil service particularly in Enugu State civilservice.In otherwords,none of the studies reviewed were carried out in Enugu State. Again, none of the studies measured that effectof employees resourcing on service delivery particularly in the civil service. This study therefore fills the knowledge and literature gap by investigating employee resourcing and service delivery in selected ministries in Enugu State Methodology This section on methodology deals with research design, population of the study, samplesizeand samplingtechnique, method of data collection, validity of the instrument and method of data analysis. Research Design This research work adopts is a descriptive survey research design. It is concerned with the collection of data for the purpose of describing and interpreting existingphenomena. It involved sampling by using structured questionnaire to elicit data that were analyzed so as to get an insight into the topic under consideration. Population of the Study It is imperative in any study todeterminethegroup orthings or persons to be studied. Population of a study has been described in the literature as the “aggregate of individual persons or objects for investigation, or the sum total of the unit of analysis”( Okeke, 2005; Chukwuemeka, 2006). Generally, two main characteristics of the population are that it can be finite or infinite (Chukwuemeka & Oji, 1999; Okeke, 2001, Hair et al, 2005, Agbonifoh and Yomere,1999). In the present study, the population comprises of employees of five selected ministries in Enugu State Civil Service. The total numbers of workers as the time of this study from the ministries are one thousand twohundredeleven (1211). The ministries that are randomly selected are ministry of agriculture, ministry of education, ministry of finance, ministry of health and ministry of justice. Sample Size and Sampling Technique To determine the sample size, for the purpose of questionnaire distribution; the Taro Yamani formula was used. The formula is stated thus: n = N 1+N (e)2 Where: N = sample size N = population E = Margin of error (5% or 0.05) I = Constant Substituting in the above formula: n = 121 1+ 1211(0.05)2 = 1211 1+ 1211(0.0025) = 1211 1+ 1211(0.0025) = 1211 3.0245 n ∼ 400 Method of Data Collection The instrument used for the data collection was questionnaire which was designed and administered to the employees of the Enugu State civil service - which serve as the sample size of the study.

The analysis of the responses of the staff of the Enugu State Civil Service - which serves as the sample size of the study were analyzed using four point summative scale response categories of SA= Strongly Agreed, A= Agreed, D= Disagreed and SD-strongly Disagree. By so doing the respondents will be able to tick the option of their choice. Any item withmean value of 2.5 and above was regarded as agreed while items which have a mean value below 2.5 was regarded as disagree. Out of the400questionnairesthatweredistributed only 372 were dully completed and returned. The model for the study is stated as follows: The model is implicitly specified as follows; Y = f(x1, x2, x3 ……. Xn + ei) eq(1) The model is explicitly specified as follows; Y = α+β1x1 + β2x2 + β3x3 + β4x4 ……. βkxk + ε eq(2) Where: α = intercept Y = Consumers patronage (frequency of patronising the bakery). Y =α + β1X1 + β2 X2 + β3 X3 + β4 X4 + β4 X5+ β6 X6 + ε …eq(3) The included variables X1-X6 represent Human Resource Planning (HRP), Recruitment process, Selection &induction, Performance management, Learning & development and Recognition & reward. β1 – β6 are the slope coefficients of the regressors, α represents the vertical intercept and ε the stochastic residual term designed to capture the effects of unspecified variables in the model, which is normally distributed with a mean value of zero.

The table above shows the regression result. It also shows the precision of the model which was analyzed usingeconomica priori criteria and statistical criteria. Discussion of Findings Discussion based on economic a priori criteria Discussion using this criterion enables us to determine the nature of relationship between the dependent and independent variables. In this case, the sign and magnitude of each variable coefficient are evaluated against theoretical or economic a priori criteria/expectations. As showed inthe table 3, it is observed that the regression line has a positive intercept as presented by the constant (c) = 5.477. This means that if all the variables are held constant or fixed (zero), employee servicedeliverywillincreasesby5.4%. The result also conforms to the a priori expectation. This states that the intercept could be positive or negative, so it conforms to the theoretical expectation (Gujarati, 2008). All the coefficients (Human Resource Planning (HRP), Recruitment process, Selection & induction, Performance management, Learning & development and Recognition & reward) have positive and significant effect on service delivery. Discussion based on statistical criteria In order to evaluate the effect of Employee Resourcing on Service Delivery in selected Ministries in Enugu State, the analysis was also done based on statistical criteria by applying the coefficient of determination(R2)and theF–test. In general, the joint effect of the explanatory variables- independent variables-in the model account for 0.763 or 76.3% of the variations in the employees service delivery. This implies that 76.3% of the variations in the employees service delivery is being accounted for or explained by the variations in Human Resource Planning (HRP), Recruitment process, Selection & induction, Performance management, Learning & development and Recognition & reward, while other independent variables not captured in the model explain just 23.7% of the variations in theemployeesservice delivery. Summary of Findings,Conclusion andrecommendations In the final analysis, this study has investigated employee resourcing and service delivery in selected ministries in Enugu State.
