This study investigates the relationship between organizational culture proxies, employee performance and business productivity, using HR analytics data. Measurable HR indicators were used such as job satisfaction, training hours, attendance, years of experience, monthly income and hours worked per week as an indicator of the culture of an organisation, which is not an easy indicator to measure. The study adopted quantitative, cross sectional and analytical research design of which the respondents were 10,000 employees. Descriptive statistics, Pearson correlation analysis, and multiple linear regression were used to assess the impact of organizational culture-related indicators on employee performance and productivity. Of these results, the most significant were job satisfaction, projects completed, number of years of experience, monthly salary, training hours, and attendance rate. A good model's predictive ability is demonstrated by the high percentage of the variance that is accounted for in this regression model, which is 87.01%. The difference between the two was not significant, suggesting that satisfaction, development, consistency and productivity had a greater effect on performance than increased work hours. The results confirm the effectiveness of HR Analytics as a source of evidence-based information regarding organization culture and employees' performance. This research contribute to HR analytics & organizational management literature because it demonstrate the importance of capturing data about employees' regular activities to consider culture in HR related issues and increase the productivity of business.
