ABSTRACT
One of the actual surest indicators of deteriorating condition in a business organisation is low job satisfaction and where management does not show enough human concern, there is bound to be employee dissatisfaction. It is my concern in this research work to examine the impact of job satisfaction on worker’s productivity and to relate job satisfaction and productivity in a manufacturing company. A random sampling technique was adopted to select a sample of respondents from the total population of the industry. Both primary and secondary sources of data were used in this study and the method is data analysis used is chi-square method. This is refers to the statistical procedure which allows the researcher to make inference on the entire population based on a sample of the population. It was however discovered after the analysis that employees’ satisfaction or dissatisfaction affects employee’s performance. Economic need affects the job satisfaction of majority of the employees and economic needs include pay, working conditions and job security.

Man is at the centre of economic activities for production with increased competition. Among all available resources in any business organization man stands out as the most valuable and cherished resources but only a relaxed worker is a productive worker and leisure is recognized as an integral part of the need of any normal human being.
Also rapid urbanization has profoundly altered human habit and way of life through noise, dust and pollution of all sorts. This need for social, cultural and physical regeneration makes the provision of adequate leisure infrastructure to satisfy people desire for means of enjoyment and relaxation a matter beyond our naira and kobo value consideration. To individual, two activities leisure and work share the twenty four hours in a day. Increase in wages will induce more work and this will hold till a certain level of working hours to leisure. If you look at a group of persons performing the same job, you look will note that some do it  better than others do and this is due to the rate of satisfaction being derived from their employers.

On the other hand, high job satisfaction brings co- operation and team work, which are pre- requisites to progress. A job satisfaction is associated with how turnover, few and low rate of lateness.
