Abstract:
This study assessed the effect of stuff recruitment on the performance of SACCOS in Tanzania under the moderation role of institutional factors culture. The guiding objectives were to examine the effect of stuff recruitment, and moderation effect of institution factors culture on the performance of SACCOS. The study was guided by Herzberg’s two factors theory and Institution theory. A positivist research philosophy and a deductive research approach was adopted. On the other hand, the researcher adopted an explanatory cross-sectional research design. The researcher used simple random sampling as a sampling technique. Primary data was collected by using a structured questionnaire from 143 SACCOS in the Dar es Salaam region. A sample size of 143 in a population of 517 SACCOS. Data was analyzed using multiple regressions with the assistance of IBM SPSS version 26. The results obtained suggest that stuff recruitment had a positive and significant effect on the performance of SACCOS. On the other hands the Findings showed that culture has a positive and significant effect to dependent variable performance of SACCOS. The study recommends that to improve the performance of SACCOS, both the Government and Tanzania Cooperative Development Commission (TCDC) are required to set the policies which will guide all SACCOS in Tanzania to have a department of human resource management to run their financial and administrative matters smoothly and professionally. Thus, ensuring recruitment, training, and incentives are crucial in running the operation of SACCOS.
