Introduction: In todays globalize world, for any country to attain and ensure good governance in support of enhanced development,

the issues of efficiency, effectiveness, capacity and quality of public administration system is of utmost value. At the beginning of the millennia, the World Public Sector Report 2001 asserted that countries with the most developed and comprehensive public sectors, compared to the weak, inefficient and sluggish ones, have been more successful in reaping the benefits of globalization (United Nations, 2001). But public service efficiency is of diverse nature in developed and developing countries because of different attributes of public administrative systems (Jreisat, 2002). While these attributes led to negative citizens perception of the bureaucracy with subsequent delivery of unsatisfactory services in most of the developing countries, the case is different in the developed world. For this reason, public administration system in general and public sector human resource management (PHRM) in particular in the context of a developing country like Bangladesh is the focal point of this paper. People, coordinated by institution as to deliver public services efficiently, are considered the most integral part of human resource management (HRM) in effective public administration (United Nations, 2005). However, due to lack of appropriate HRM framework, public administration systems in the developing countries are believed to develop negative attributes (table 1) that the citizens dislike. In this paper, it is thus hypothesized that weaker the human resource management framework in a country, the less efficient, effective, impartial, capable, and responsive is the public administration system in the country. The significance of appropriate human resource unsatisfactory services in most of the developing countries, the case is different in the developed world. For this reason, public administration system in general and public sector human resource management (PHRM) in particular in the context of a developing country like Bangladesh is the focal point of this paper.

Definition of HRM: Human resource management is concerned with the people dimension in management. Since every organization is made up of people, acquiring their services, developing their skills, motivating them to high level of performance and ensuring that they continue to maintain their commitment to the organization are essential to aching organizational objectives. A number of authors have explored the links between individual HR practices and corporate financial performance. Lam and White (1998) reported that firms HR orientations (measured by the effective recruitment of employee, above average compensation, and extensive training and development) were related to return on assets, growth in sales, and stock values. HRM function is increasingly important in shaping a new organization in which the quality and commitment of people are keys to survival. According to Gordon (2000) each aspect of HRM needs to be reassured; but none is more pivotal or difficult than Performance Management System. Employees at all levels experience a need to know clearly what they should be doing and what is expected of them in terms of quantity and quality of output. Performance appraisal should lead to identification of training and development needs. It also creates a new basis for improvement and development. Performance Management System provides some of the essential components of effective motivational strategies. In particular feedback that permits an employee to learn how well he or she is performing is of necessity. The system also provides relevant information required for validating selection methods. Wright and Mcmahan (1992) defined the planned HR deployments and activities intended to enable to achieve its goals. Boselie et. al. (2005) defined that HR deployment reflects the central assumptions behind the conceptualization of what HRM is and does: namely, that it responds accurately and effectively to the organizations environment and completement other organizational systems and contingencies. Boselie and Deitz (2003) and Katou and Budhwar (2006) report that there are commonalities and also contradictions in HRM and performance research (Wall and Wood, 2005: Wright and Boswell, 2002).

Theoretical Frame work :


Function: HRM suggest that is a process consisting of four functions:Acquisition/ Stuffing

Human resource planning. Recruiting a. Internal b. External Employee Socialization

Maintenance Safety and Health Employee/Labor relation

Training & Development

External Influence

Employee training Management Development Career Development

Motivation
Performance evaluation Rewards Job evaluation Compensation Discipline Recognition

Acquisition/stiffening: The acquisition function begins with planning. Relative to human resource requirements, we need to know where we are going and how we are going to get there. This includes the estimating of demands of and supplies of labor. Acquisition also includes the recruitment selection and socialization of employees. HRM actinides also concern with seeking and hiring qualified employees, It also ensure that it has the right number and kinds of people, at the right places, at the right times. Development: The development function can be viewed along three

dimensions. The first is employee training, which emphasizes skill development and the changing of attitudes among workers. The second is management development, which concerns itself primarily with knowledge acquisition and the enhancement of an executives conceptual abilities. The third is carrier development which is the continual effort to match long-term indindual and organizational needs. Motivation function: The motivation function begins with the recognition that indinduals are unique and that motivation techniques must reflect the needs of each invidual. With in the motivation function job satisfaction, performance, compensation and benefits administration and how to handle problem employees are reviewed. Maintenance function: The final function is maintenance. In contrast to the motivation function, which attempts to stimulate performance the maintenance function is concerned with providing those working conditions that employees believe necessary in order to mantain their commitment to the organization.

Since the effective management of human resources depends on refining HRM practices to changing conditions. This is done to in the belief that HRM is a day-namic and changing field. The theoretical framework of this paper is borrowed from the WPSR 2005 which outlines the contents and reform measures required in the PHRM especially in developing and transitional countries. In constructing the theoretical framework, the WPSR 2005 first distinguishes among three models of public administration and management underlining the fact that they are chronological but overlap in both historical time and substance (United Nations, 2005). Understanding the characteristics of these public administration models, outlined in table 2, is thus important as the theoretical framework of the WPSR includes important attributes from all these models. The Constitution of the Peoples Republic of Bangladesh provides the framework for PHRM under whose authority a plethora of statutory and non-statutory rules and regulations have been adopted in Bangladesh for managing the civil service (Siddiquee, 2003). Under the constitutional framework, different governments of Bangladesh have enacted major rules regulating the structural and functional aspects of Bangladesh public service. These include, among others, Bangladesh Civil Service (Recruitment) Rules, 1981; Government Servants (Discipline and Appeal) Rule, 1985; Government Servants (Conduct) Rule, 1979; Government Servants (Special Provisions) Ordinance, 1979; Public Servants (Retirement) Act, 1974 and so on. The supervision of the PHRM in Bangladesh is done by a number of authorities including government ministries and a constitutional body. While Ministry of Establishment and Public Service Commission (PSC) act as the central personnel agencies of the government, there are few other ministries that are also associated with PHRM related activities. The importance of PHRM is evident from the fact that the head of the government in Bangladesh has always taken the leadership of the Ministry of Establishment portfolio. Ministry of Establishment (MoE) is the lead personnel agency in

Bangladesh responsible for framing the broad policies, principles, rules and regulations for civil service management. Major decisions concerning creation of cadre services, recruitment and promotion HR practices in Bangladesh: HR practice in Bangladesh is better than the past. In the past, HR role was concentrated to hiring firing and letter issuance-dispatching-filing stage. Now it has started to perform more than that. Such as ....Employee motivation, Employee development, employee retention, facilitating organizational development initiatives etc. and thus contributes to the achievement of organizational goals. These value added job has just begun in BD. For a good tomorrow, this is a starting point. Employers have started to understand that the more they invest in human resources they more output is likely which lead them to emphasize on employee capability development. As such in many organizations, employee development is viewed as part of business plan. In these organizations, training budget is calculated as a percentage of total budgets of the organization. Employer - Employee relationships is better than the past. Employers now recognize the importance of employees participation in business planning, major decision making and organizational change process. Many organizations now conduct employee opinion surveys for collecting employee feedback and improve employer- employee relationships. Some HR actions have legal implications. But in the country context legal explanation does not seem to be adequate. There is lack of uniformity of the interpretation of law that lead to practice by organizations in different way.

There is also ambiguity of existing legal policy or detailed policy framework on HR actions seems to be incomplete. In future the overall HR practice is expected to be brighter in Bangladesh because more are feeling the necessity of an established HR department in the organizational structure employer-employee relationship is expected to improve, IT will be part of HR practices which will make HR actions, decision making process faster and accurate HR practice in Bangladesh is better than the past.

It is the very ingredient that gives their organization the integrity upon which their reputation is built and we zealously guard it everyday.

Miller and Wheeler (1992) found that the lack of meaningful work and opportunities for promotion significantly affected employees' intentions to leave an organization. Organizations were able to improve their employees' retention rate by adopting job enrichment programs and enhancing their advancement opportunities. Besides promotion opportunities, the evaluation criteria used in the promotion and reward system also had significant effects on employees turnover intentions (Quarles 1994). Ineffective performance appraisal and planning systems contributed to employees' perceptions of unfairness and they were more likely to consider leaving the organization (Dailey & Kirk 1992). In studies related to compensation, Park, Ofori-Dankwa and Bishop (1994) and Trevor, Barry and Boudreau (1997) found that salary growth had a pronounced effect on turnover. Particularly, salary growth effects on turnover were greatest for high performers, that is, high salary growth significantly reduced turnover for high performing employees. Abassi and Hollman (2000) in their study have identified lack of recognition and lack of competitive compensation systems are some reasons for employee turnover in the organization. Many a thousand minds of their group contributed to their gathered knowledge to keep the wheels rolling that in turn leads them to goal. This cumulative strength of knowledge is required, today, to find new solutions for the manifold problems of fast- changing economic cultural and ecological milieu.

Conclusion
The objective of the current study was to examine the direct relationship between HRM practices and organizational innovation, as well as indirect

relationship between HRM practices and organizational innovation via knowledge management effectiveness. The statistical results obtained in this study showed that HRM practices have a significant positive impact on organizational innovation. And also, the knowledge management effectiveness has a mediation effect on relationship between HRM practices and organizational innovation. Only one of five HRM practices, namely training was found to have both direct and indirect effect on all three dimensions of organizational innovation (product innovation, process innovation, and administrative innovation). This result entailed that when organizations have higher implementation level of training, it will advances the growth of employees requisite skills and their potential to learn. Employees are able to generate new understandings and new ideas that will be useful for organizational innovation. As a result, efforts taken to enhance knowledge management effectiveness in the manufacturing firms will be useful in enhancing the organizational innovation performance. The results of this study also offer several suggestions to manufacturing firms in Malaysia to focus on training program. Employees undertake the training programs are expected to apply the knowledge acquired on the task and job assigned. In another word, the higher level of implementation of training, the more transfer and flow of information and knowledge which will increase organizational learning and instil new ideas, leading to product innovation, process innovation and administrative innovation. Performance appraisal, on the other hand, was found to have both direct and indirect effect on administrative innovation, but not on product innovation and process innovation. One of the possible explanations may due to administrative innovation is usually done within a shorter period of time since administrative processes and systems can be adjusted according to the needs of the organization. Hence, feedback obtained from performance appraisal activities, usually conducted at least once annually can help organization further improve

administrative processes. On the other hand, product innovation and process innovation take a longer period of times, may be several years to yield results due to technical constraints faced during product and process actualization. Hence, the feedback from performance appraisal activities may not have any impact on product innovation and process innovation. This means the higher level of implementation of fair performance appraisal, the higher level of employees motivation towards their tasks. High motivation will help to increase employees willingness to generate new ideas in order to increase administrative innovation.
