Abstract: The study aimed to assess human resource challenges and remedial measures among healthcare employees in Chennai. The study is carried out among 400 employees working in various healthcare organizations. Results of exploratory factor analysis identified five human resource challenges like, workforce management, employee engagement, communication, compensation, and recruitment. Workforce management emerges as the most significant issue, emphasizing shortages of skilled professionals, high turnover, and burnout. Employee engagement is shaped by skill gaps and insufficient training. Communication challenges, including cultural diversity and language barriers, reflect the sector’s complex dynamics. Compensation issues, such as inadequate salary packages, impact retention, while recruitment challenges center on onboarding inefficiencies. Kendall’s Coefficient of Concordance ranks remedial measures, emphasizing work environment, training, work-life balance, recognition, and compensation. Results prove the need for targeted strategies to tackle human resource challenges and improve healthcare workforce management, eventually enhance organizational performance and employee well-being.
