Abstract: – This study explores the relationship between employee motivation and the effectiveness of human resource (HR) practices at Muneera Motors. In the current competitive business environment, employee motivation has become a key factor influencing organizational success. The research aims to assess how HR policies and practices—such as recruitment, training, performance appraisal, compensation, and employee engagement—contribute to motivating employees and enhancing overall productivity. A combination of qualitative and quantitative methods, including structured questionnaires and interviews, was used to gather data from a cross-section of employees at various levels within the organization. The findings indicate that while Muneera Motors has implemented several standard HR practices, there is a gap in aligning these practices with individual motivational needs. The study highlights the importance of personalized recognition, skill development opportunities, and transparent communication in boosting employee morale. Recommendations include adopting a more employee-centric HR approach, continuous feedback mechanisms, and customized training programs to enhance motivation and retention. This research provides insights for HR professionals and management at Muneera Motors to refine their strategies, thus promoting a more motivated and productive workforce
