Abstract:
Employees’ productivity in any work organization can be fully examined within the context of many factors. Previous studies had not been able to link job satisfaction with employees’ productivity. Consequently, the study examined the influence of job satisfaction on employees’ productivity in 9Mobile Nigeria Limited.
The combination of Equity Theory and Hertzberg’s Two Factor Theory were employed as
theoretical framework. A descriptive research design was adopted in the study. It concerned the collection of data from a populations sample in order to explain the current circumstances or relationships, views held, ongoing procedures, apparent effects or patterns. Yaro Yamane sample determination technique was used to get a sample size of 400. While (64.9%) of the respondents were males, (35.1%) were females. The largest proposition of the respondents (54.9%) were within the range of 21-30 years. While (45.1%) below5 years’ experience, (49.7%) have between 6-10 years of experience and (5.1%) of the respondents are 11 years and above on the basis of work experience. Hypothesis showed that moderate relationship observed between the two variables is not significant, hence, null hypothesis is accepted no significant relationship between the supervision of employees’ and target achievement of the organization. In hypothesis two, null hypothesis is accepted. This means, there was no significant relationship between pay rise and high profit making of the organization. In hypothesis three, null hypothesis was accepted. This means that is no significant relationship between pay rise and
employees’ target achievement. In hypothesis four, there is no significant relationship between employees’ training and job performance of the organization.
From the foregoing, the study recommended that Employees’ unique performance recognition should be accompanied with special reward in form of cash or tangible gift that will serve as morale booster to workers to remain committed to their work for high productivity to be achieve. There must be policy of regular upward review of salaries of workers putting into consideration the current economic realities in the country.
