    This study focused on exploring the impact of Human Resource practices mainly training, work place safety and job security on career growth. The study was carried out at Uganda Christian University. The objectives of the study were to: assess the perceived levels of job security among employees within UCU, evaluate the effectiveness of employee training programs in enhancing skill development and knowledge acquisition in UCU, examine the implementation of safety practices and their impact on employee well-being and work place safety perceptions and investigate the relationship between job security, employee training, and safety practices on employees’ perceptions of career growth opportunities in UCU. A population of 100 was used including the administrators and support staff members. A sample of 50 respondents was selected for the study purpose.
