INTRODUCTION

1.1 BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY

Over the year’s  theories have made  services of attempt to unravel the mystery surrounding why people tend to display certain behavior  in a given condition, the believe  that every behavior manifested in the work place or otherwise is goal directed.

Work environment in general, entails its physical components such as the buildings, it’s furniture, level of comfort, office layout settings, under which employee’s operate. Social components of work environment  speaks of  a robust relationship among employees, the general freely interactive  atmosphere, the involvement of employees in managerial decision at large,  etc. this brings us to definition of  environment. Kochan (2001) since considers environment in the following context, economic context, social, and technological context. It could be looked at as the surrounding of all situation, people, events, etc. that influence life. Gnaft (2004) comment on the effect of work environment in his write up, he stated that “environmental factors contributes to employee’s productivity, quality output, level of wastage and rate of turnover”.

Many organizations labour under the mistaken impression that the level of employee performance on the job is proportional to the size of the employee’s surveys have shown by and large to be untrue.  Infact, salary increases and bonuses for performance, in many instances, have a very limited short – term effect. The extra money soon comes to be regarded not as incentive but as an “entitlement”.

There are other factors that when combined provide a more powerful determinant of employees performance. When these other factors are missing or diluted, the employees do come to work only for a page check. In this case, the employee is present at work in body, leaving their mind outside the gate.

It is the quality of the employee’s work place environment that brings most impacts on their level of motivation and subsequent performance. How the engage with the organizations, especially with their immediate environment, influence to a great extent their error rate, level of innovation and collaboration with other employees, absenteeism and ultimately, how long the employee stay in the job. Many studies have revealed that most employees leave their organization because of their relationship with their immediate management.
