چکیده مقاله :
هدف از تحقیق حاضر بررسی رابطه مدیریت منابع انسانی و عملکرد شغلی کارکنان با نقش میانجی وفاداری سازمانی کارکنان بانک سپه بود. بر همین اساس روش تحقیق از نوع کاربردی با ماهیت توصیفی –همبستگی است. باتوجهبه این که جامعه موردمطالعه از نوع محدود است از فرمول کوکران جامعه محدود برای انتخاب نمونه شده و تعداد نمونه برابر ۳۲۳ نفر به دست آمد که روش نمونهگیری از نوع تصادفی ساده است. روش گردآوری دادهها در این تحقیق میدانی و ابزار گردآوری دادهها پرسشنامههای استاندارد است. در این تحقیق برای اندازهگیری روایی از روایی محتوا و همچنین برای اندازهگیری پایایی از ضریب آلفای کرونباخ استفاده شده است که مقادیر آن برای تمامی متغیرهای مدل بالاتر از ۷/۰ بهدستآمده است. کلیه تجزیهوتحلیل دادههای جمعآوریشده از طریق نرمافزارهای SPSS26 و AMOS24 انجام شده است. برای بررسی فرضیهها تحقیق از تحلیل عاملی تأییدی و مدلسازی معادلات ساختاری با رویکرد حداقل مربعات جزئی استفاده شده است. یافتههای بدست آمده از معادلات ساختاری نشان داد که مقدار ضریب مسیر استاندارد بین متغیر مدیریت منابع انسانی و عملکرد شغلی برابر با 75/0 بوده که نشان از تأثیر مثبت و معنادار مدیریت منابع انسانی بر عملکرد شغلی کارکنان بانک سپه دارد؛ مقدار ضریب مسیر استاندارد بین متغیر وفاداری سازمانی و عملکرد شغلی برابر با 73/0 بوده که نشان میدهد بین وفاداری سازمانی و عملکرد شغلی رابطه مثبت و معناداری وجود دارد. همچنین اثر غیرمستقیم مدیریت منابع انسانی با نقش میانجی وفاداری سازمانی بر عملکرد شغلی کارکنان بانک سپه برابر با 5256/0 بهدستآمد که نقش میانجی وفاداری کارکنان در ارتباط بین مدیریت منابع انسانی و عملکرد شغلی را تایید مینماید. با توجه به اهمیت بانکها در اقتصاد کشور و نیاز به بهرهبرداری بهینه از منابع انسانی در این سازمانها، بررسی این موضوع در یک نهاد مالی با ساختار خاص خود، میتواند دیدگاههای جدیدی در زمینه پیادهسازی استراتژیهای مدیریت منابع انسانی و تأثیر آنها بر عملکرد کارکنان بانک سپه فراهم کند.

Extended Abstract
Effective Job Performance in the Light of Human Resource Loyalty Management
Introduction
The goals of human resource management are defined at three levels. At the individual level, the focus is on ensuring job satisfaction, motivation, and opportunities for advancement for employees. At the organizational level, the aim is to increase productivity and improve organizational performance, while at the societal level, adherence to ethical principles, protection of employee rights, and participation in sustainable development are emphasized (Hosseini et.l, 2024: 22). Human resource management activities include attracting and selecting qualified personnel, providing training and development programs to improve skills, evaluating employee performance, designing fair reward and compensation systems, and creating a suitable work environment to strengthen positive relationships between employees and management. These activities are designed to enhance employee motivation and commitment, ultimately improving job performance. (Salman, 2024: 452).
In banks, where accuracy, speed, and service quality are of particular importance, effective human resource management can significantly impact the quality of services provided, thus affecting customer satisfaction and the bank's growth. In this regard, studying the relationship between human resource management, organizational loyalty, and job performance of employees at Bank Sepah can help the bank's managers design optimal policies to increase employee loyalty, and consequently, improve their job performance. This research can provide a deeper understanding of the role of human resource management in strengthening organizational loyalty and its impact on employee performance in a large banking organization. Ultimately, the results of this study can contribute to improving human resource policies in banks and enhancing the overall organizational productivity. In the current competitive environment, banks must continually strive to keep their employees committed and loyal to organizational goals. This is especially important at Bank Sepah, one of the largest and oldest state-owned banks in Iran. In such organizations, improving employee performance and increasing their loyalty can have a significant impact on the bank’s competitiveness and customer satisfaction. Accordingly, the researcher in this study seeks to answer the main question: Is there a relationship between human resource management and job performance of employees, with organizational loyalty as a mediating factor, at Bank Sepah?
Theoretical Framework
In the present study, human resource management is considered as the independent variable, employee loyalty as the mediating variable, and job performance as the dependent variable, all playing a role in the banking system of Bank Sepah. The theoretical model of the current research is derived from the study of Darmawan (2020). In the employee loyalty component, employee commitment acts as an important mediator between human resource management and job performance (Pantih, 2024:55). Job engagement helps reduce turnover rates and increases job satisfaction among bank employees (Zenabazar et al., 2024:1119). This analysis indicates that human resource management can effectively influence the job performance of bank employees, and this impact is strengthened through enhancing employees' organizational loyalty.
Methodology
The research method is applied, with a descriptive-correlational nature. Since the study population is limited, the Cochran formula for finite populations was used to select the sample, resulting in a sample size of 323 individuals. The sampling method used is simple random sampling. The data collection method in this study is field-based, and the data collection tools are standardized questionnaires. For measuring validity, content validity was used, and for measuring reliability, Cronbach's alpha coefficient was applied. The values of Cronbach's alpha for all variables in the model were found to be above 0.7. All data analyses were conducted using SPSS26 and AMOS24 software. To test the research hypotheses, confirmatory factor analysis and structural equation modeling with a partial least squares approach were employed.
Discussion and Results
The findings obtained from structural equations indicated that the standardized path coefficient between the human resource management variable and job performance was 0.75, which reflects a positive and significant impact of human resource management on the job performance of Bank Sepah employees. The standardized path coefficient between the organizational loyalty variable and job performance was 0.73, showing a positive and significant relationship between organizational loyalty and job performance.
Additionally, the indirect effect of human resource management with organizational loyalty as a mediating variable on the job performance of Bank Sepah employees was found to be 0.5256, confirming the mediating role of employee loyalty in the relationship between human resource management and job performance.
Conclusion
Given the importance of banks in the country's economy and the need for optimal utilization of human resources in these organizations, examining this topic in a financial institution with its unique structure can provide new insights into the implementation of human resource management strategies and their impact on employee performance. Additionally, this study specifically addresses the relationship between organizational loyalty and job performance in the context of Bank Sepah, which has been less explored in similar research.
