Employee working productivity prediction is vital for effective resource allocation, increased productivity, and upholding a high-performance culture in organizations. However, predicting employee productivity and understanding the root factors influencing working performance pose significant challenges. Traditional human resource management practices often lack data-driven insights, resulting in poor resource allocation and productivity enhancement strategies. To address these challenges, we developed a predictive model using machine learning techniques to determine employee productivity within organizations. Data from an academic institution were collected and pre-processed by encoding relevant features before applying various machine learning predictive models. Experimental results revealed that the linear regression model achieved the best performance in terms of Mean Absolute Error (MAE) and Mean Squared Error (MSE), with values of 0.4878 and 0.4682, respectively.
