Abstract
This research aims to investigate the relationship between personnel performance and HR planning procedures. Qualitative and quantitative research methods were adopted using secondary and primary sources. A descriptive research design was used. A total of 141 branch employees were targeted but 104 were sampled randomly. A survey questionnaire and interview guides were used to collect data and the Statistical Package for Social Sciences and content analysis were used for analysis. The presentation was in tables and prose form. The findings were that surveys and interviews yield results in the same format because dissemination of HR policies is important to employee effectiveness. It was established that employee performance is an avenue for increasing performance. Total Uganda and other organizations employing human resource planning can employ HR planning to enable them to arrive at the performance. Similarly, employee performance is a way to improve performance. The study contributes to the literature by evaluating the human resource planning policies affecting employee performance at Total Uganda Limited. This study holds significant practical implications for organizations, particularly those navigating dynamic and competitive environments like Total Uganda Limited. Therefore, organizations like Total Uganda Limited should prioritize and promote workforce planning.
