Human Resource (HR) practices have been identified by HR mangers worldwide as practices that play a significant role in employee productivity and job satisfaction. The purpose of this study was to identify a set of HR practices that significantly relate to job satisfaction. The design of the study was a cross-sectional social survey which utilized the systematic sampling technique to sample 200 employees from the Obuasi Municipal District Assembly. The sample consisted of top-level, middle-level and low-level management staff. Bivariate analysis using the Pearson Product moment correlation coefficient was used to determine the relationship between the chosen HR practices (independent variables) and Job satisfaction (dependent variable). Results of the study revealed a strong, negative and statistically significant relationship between career development and job satisfaction ( r = - 0.683, p = 0.000). Employee promotion was also negatively and significantly related to employee job satisfaction (r = -0.184, p= 0.025). The association between the two variables was however weak. Employee recognition for good performance and job design as HR practices positively and significantly related to job satisfaction ( r = 0.184; 0.213 with p = 0.009; 0.004 respectively).We recommend future research to determine how well these identified HR practices predict job satisfaction and to also include other HR practices such as employee remuneration.
