Abstract

An enterprise’s productivity is closely correlated with its people and strategies; therefore, a forceful human resource management system is the most valuable asset of the current century construction companies.

Purpose/design/methodology/approach

Based on a combination of literature review and questionnaire surveys, this paper explores the execution of construction workers training and motivation methods in HRM practices by the survey respondents’ companies and the effects on the companies’ performances. The research was conducted by sending 120 sets of questionnaires to the nominated companies and firms in Mashhad, Iran. A quantitative research approach was adopted requiring the development and dissemination of a questionnaire survey. The analysis method in this research is mainly descriptive and the type of investigation is correlational study.

Findings

The research exposes some barriers in the training and motivation of the construction workers and provides solutions for the government and companies in Iran. Also, it reveals the effects of unskilled labour on the quality of construction projects in Mashhad.

Research limitations/implications

Future research should be undertaken to address how companies and governments adapt to and shape the environmental and organizational settings in such a way that the context optimally stimulates workers motivation and participation in training courses and effects on increasing the quality of construction.

Conclusions

Mashhad is the second largest city of Iran in terms of population, area and construction projects. Also it is located in the territory with the highest risk of earthquake activity. It has many construction projects in various categories. Consequently, many construction workers are allocated there. This research attempted to send questionnaires to an assorted number of companies involved in different responsibilities and various projects. Therefore, the results of the survey can be extended to other parts of Iran and other countries with the same scope as this research. Some of the main results which are found by this research are as follows:

  • Many of Iranian labour have low levels of education, low income, lack of motivation, and family problems.
  • The Iranian government, by legislating new rules and regulations to support labour, can play an important role in improving their state of affairs. Some of the endeavours, which can be applied by the government, are as follows: increasing social security, paying some of their costs of living, requiring companies to use labour with certification of fitness of occupation in the projects, and social insurance.
  • Training institutes should be developed in both private and governmental sectors.
  • Friendly environment should be made through which managers, staffs, and workers can discuss and learn from each other.
  • A work environment should be created to influence employees’ innovative and personal commitment.
  • Using incentives such as workers’ participation, recognition, and team belonging for motivating staff and workers
  • Introducing and recommending TVTO centres to the workers and encouraging them to participate in their courses.

In addition, some profitable methods which may be utilized by training organizations can be summarized as follows:

  • Short-term training courses at fixed centres.
  • Sending trainers to the construction sites (OJT).
  • Self-learning and taking part in standard exams.

Moreover, the results showed that the quality of construction projects have a strong correlation with the training of labour in HRM practices. Lastly, it is hoped that this study makes the government, companies, and managers of disasters aware of the aftermath in different parts of Iran of low quality construction and lack of skilled workers and lead them to apply proper ways to prevent probable damages.
