This study was carried out with the view to assessing the relationship between some selected human resource practices and employees’ performance in a Nigerian public university. In specific, two (2) dimensions of human resource practices were used, namely hiring process and training. The study employed the descriptive survey design via the administration of questionnaire to one hundred and four (104) academic and non-academic staff in Federal University of Petroleum Resources (FUPRE) in Warri, Delta State of Nigeria. Data obtained in the study were analyzed using both descriptive (frequency count, simple percentages, mean and standard deviation, and Pearson correlation) and inferential (simple regression) statistical tools. Specifically, the results of the simple regression revealed a significant link between hiring process (F-ratio= 22.11; p-value= 0.0000) and employees’ performance. Additionally, the study found a significant relationship between training (F-ratio=28.47; p-value=0.0000) and employees’ performance. Based on the findings, it was recommended that concerted efforts by Nigerian public institutions of higher learning should be geared towards enhancing their human resource practices, particularly in areas of training process so as to further boost the performance of employees. More so, Nigerian public institutions of higher learning should design a viable framework in their hiring process in order to have a formidable workforce that can deliver its goals and objectives. This study has contributed to knowledge by filling the literature gap on what is known about the Human Resource Practices and the performance of employees of public institutions of higher learning in Nigeria.
