This research aimed to explain the role of Human Resource Management (HRM) practices in enhancing employees’ job satisfaction and its relationship with productivity at the Sudanese Sea Ports Corporation (SPC) in Red Sea State, Port Sudan City. The study was based on a central problem represented by the variation in levels of job satisfaction and productivity among employees and the extent to which this variation is related to the effectiveness of HRM practices applied within the corporation.

The research adopted the analytical descriptive approach, and a questionnaire was used as the main tool for data collection from a sample of (100) employees from the study population. HRM practices included training and development, incentives and wages, performance evaluation, work environment, and human relations, while job satisfaction and employees’ productivity were measured as dependent variables.

The data were analyzed using descriptive statistical methods, correlation coefficients, and regression analysis to test the study hypotheses. The results revealed a relatively high level of implementation of HRM practices in the corporation, particularly in the areas of training and development and the work environment. The findings also indicated a high level of job satisfaction and employees’ productivity.

The research confirmed that there exist statistically significant relationships between HRM practices and both job satisfaction and productivity. It also found a positive impact of job satisfaction on improving employees’ productivity. However, the results indicated that the incentives and wages dimension require further development compared to other HRM practices.

The research concluded with several recommendations, most notably the need to strengthen incentive policies and link them to performance, as well as to continue supporting training and development programs in order to enhance job satisfaction, improve productivity, and strengthen the institutional performance of the Sudanese SPC.
