This research examines the impact of pertinent HR practices/policies upon a person’s job contentment and
turnover in higher educational institutes. A special context of universities of KP is chosen where numerous
employees have developed job dissatisfaction and increased turnover because of unfavorable work
conditions including but not limited to terrorism attacks, civil unrest, widespread diseases and unconducive
working environment. This has ultimately compelled them to leave their jobs and flee to other cities such as
Islamabad and Karachi. More specifically, three HR policies i.e. employee participation, training and
performance appraisal are analysed to affect job satisfaction and turnover. A quantitative survey was
conducted to assess job outcomes of University teachers in areas where living conditions have deteriorated
in the recent past. Respondents were segregated on the basis of age, income per month, designation and
gender basis. The regression results suggest a positive significant relation of employee participation and
performance appraisal with that of job satisfaction while a significant negative relation is found with
turnover ratio. The study concludes that universities should focus on implementing HR policies and
practices effectively in workplace which will help retain employees and keep them motivated. This can be
one of the many effective strategies to retain workforce and discourage brain-drain out of the country. The
study ends with a brief conclusion and while acknowledging limitations.
