Subject area: Arts, Social Sciences and Humanities · Area of research: Public Administration (Human Resource Management)
Abstract
The study attempts a critical examination of the implication of motivating junior workers and job performance in Cross River University of Technology (CRUTECH), Cross River State, Nigeria. Two research hypotheses were formulated to guide this study. A Motivation and Job Performance Questionnaire (MJPQ) was constructed and used for data collection. This instrument, with twenty (20) items, was administered to one hundred and sixty one (161) junior staff from the three campuses that make up the university, that is, Calabar campus (105), Obubra (26) and Ogoja (30) using the stratified random sampling technique. The Pearson Product Moment Correlation Analysis was used to test the hypotheses. However, from the result of findings, it was realized that staff welfare and staff training are significantly related to job performance. Recommendations were made based on the findings of the study.
