HRM Practice in the transportation industry with job satisfaction, good governance and supportive work culture: Perspective of smartPLS algorithm results in structural equation modeling (SEM)

Abstract

There are many confusions surrounding the transportation industry system and operations in Ghana. It is mostly affected by the governance system which struggles to achieve good governance in transportation services. This paper is built on existing findings which uses scientific methods to achieve results that it displays in the content. SmartPLS was used to run the data for analysis. The essence of this article is to educate people on how to describe or interpret results in SmartPLS in general from research point of views. It displays the path models of the theoretical framework of the variables and constructs to enable future researchers to learn and study. In this research, all the constructs which received low outer loadings were dropped. On the Intrinsic factors it appears the drivers are not satisfied with their treatment, they don’t get free travel pass for their family, and there is also lack of recognition of their hard work. Those were the low outer loadings from the intrinsic motivation factors. Good Governance problems point to lack of the following factors or principles of good governance in the theory towards the transportation industry. These are lack of Accountability, Integrity, Transparency, Compliance & Discipline, and, Efficiency & effectiveness, all on the part of management of public transportation.
