Although the influence of management practices on employee and organizational performance is well documented, there is however limited empirical evidence of the effects of employee engagement, motivation, and job satisfaction. The current Human Resources study, which was conducted at IRUWASA in Iringa Municipality therefore analyzed the impact of human resources practices on employee performance, and parameters examined include; employee engagement, motivation, and job satisfaction on employee performance. The study used a mixed research approach, with quantitative research taking precedence and qualitative research complementing the quantitative design. Since the population was 130, the study used a cross-sectional research approach using data from 97 respondents. Both descriptive (mean, frequencies, and percentages) and inferential statistics were used to analyze the data (correlation analysis). Employee engagement, motivation, and job satisfaction all have a substantial impact on employee performance, according to the findings. According to the survey, HR practices should be improved because providing employees with skills and information enables them to be committed and have high morale, resulting in improved performance. According to the findings, all three variables, namely employee engagement, motivation, and work satisfaction, have a considerable impact on employee performance. IRUWASA is encouraged to keep assimilating these three variables in their employee performance strategies.
