CHAPTER ONE

1.0  INTRODUCTION

1.1  BACKGROUND OF STUDY

Generally, people work in order to make money, acquire wealth and take care of their needs.  Motivation and employee performance are vital tools to achieving organizational goals and objectives.

Motivation has been defend by many scholars, authors and researchers.  Hiuse and Barditch (1977):177) defined motivation as the “condition responsible for variation in the intensity, quality and direction of an ongoing behaviour”.

Behaviour is caused by the individual’s attempts to satisfy his or her needs.  Mockler (1973:778) states that “a person is motivated to work in order to satisfy some needs.  Hence, the definition sees motivation in three perspectives:

  1. A need such as hunger or self-actualization which arises in a person.
  2. The person recognizes that he must satisfy this need and so it motivated to action.
  3. He takes action to satisfy that needs either by getting a job or deciding to keep working at his or her previous job.

In public sector, before a manager can understand and effectively carryout these function of motivation, he must therefore be well informed and thoroughly understands what motivates his subordinates at work.  This is because individual differs in their wants and aspirations and must be treated as such.

The presence of these unsatisfied needs in individuals induces them to work or act harder.  The incentives that can prompt a worker to engage in the behavior needed of him in the organization include extra hours bonus at luxury rate availability of basic facilities, e.g. pipe borne water, electricity etc.

Can loans, free health services for both the worker and their families, relieve duties and job schedule etc.  According to Stephen P. Robbins, (1979:15) asserts that an employee’s future is closely related to his or her promotion, increase of payment and continuation of employment are among the obvious benefits.  We might also define motivation in terms of some outward behavior.  People who are motivated exist a greater effort to perform than those who are not motivated.
