HRM in Higher Education: The Need of the Houriosrjce
Education is today looked on as a business world over, including India and the competition is getting stiff. In this
competitive scenario management of human resources in universities is just as challenging as it is in any other organization.
Though almost all universities and affiliated institutions offer courses in human resource management and train their
students to manage large corporations, they are unable to manage their own human resources effectively. This is especially
so in India where higher education is still controlled by the public sector. Most universities do not have a separate
department dedicated to performing the HR functions. This paper outlines the development of HRM from an administrative
function to a strategic one and discusses the crucial role that it has to play in institutions of higher learning. It highlights the
need for a complete revamp of HR functions of recruitment, placement, training, appraisal, compensation and employee
relations. It argues that State funded universities need to restructure themselves to create this department so that specialized
people can be employed full-time to undertake crucial Human Resource functions. Such a department dedicated exclusively
to the functions of managing human resources can become strategic to an educational institution and become a source of
competitive advantage

Libya is blessed with many factories but regrettably these factories failed due to lack of skills and experiences. Often Libya due to their uncoordinated, unregulated and fragmented nature delivery systems and policies are the challenges faced by the state. It is difficult to design a training system that ensures demand driven skills provision and involves stakeholders from key relevant sectors and this requires a study to identify problems and prosper solution for sustainable future development. Hence, the report adopted the approach which combines the results of studies being reviewed. I utilized analytical techniques to estimate the strength of a given set of findings across many different studies and sometime compare and draw conclusion. This has allowed the creation of a context from which this report emerged The report data solely rely on the empirical source which classified in primary and secondary source.The reported found out that the number of trainee dropped from 2000 to 2005 by an average of 26 students, in comparison to 1999. However, in 2006 and 2007, the number of trainee showed increased (by an average of 25 students). Due to this increased in trainee, oil production also increased at the beginning of the new millennium. This Indicate that training increase productivity and productivity growth can raise incomes and reduce poverty in a virtuous circle. Productivity growth reduces production costs and increases returns on investments, some of which turn into income for business owners and investors and some of which are turned into higher wages and national growth.
This paper discusses how the nature and character of education available to Nigerians in the Niger Delta Region has for long contributed to, and, over the years, aggravated rather than ameliorate the agitation over resources, and how the diversification towards entrepreneurial development can act as a long term solution to the crisis. This comes from the background that a concrete source of agitation in the Niger Delta is the unending demand for paid employment by the youth; with which the multinational oil companies cannot, as they claim, cope.

Human Resource Management is the efficient management of the people resources of an organization to facilitate the achievement of its goals. The challenge facing most organisations is how to get the optimal output from each of its employee. In the past, the human component in organisations was regarded as inconsequential, with very little attention in terms of organisational resources allocated to its development, until the mid-twentieth century when efficient human resource management started gaining importance as vital to the progress of organisations.

Mathematics is the language of science and technology. It is the creation of the human mind. Its knowledge, skills, applications, and competence is required in the 21st century that is technologically-driven. However, students’ achievement and performance, and their ability to apply the little knowledge gained in the subject has continuously remained low. This has become a matter of concern to all stakeholders in the education industry, to the extent that urgent steps need to be taken to re-position the situation. Ale and Adetula (2010), reported that the demarcation between industrialized and wealthy (developed) nations and the non-industrialized and poor (undeveloped) nations is based on their level of mathematical attainment and ingenuity. This implies that without mathematics there is no science and without science there is no modern technology, and without modern technology there is no modern society. Therefore, mathematics remains the cognitive tool that can take any nation to its dream of scientific and technological developments.

Education is a means of empowerment to an individual and the society. Also, it is a solid tool for developing human capacity needed for a sustainable national development. Tertiary education, which comprises universities, polytechnics, colleges of education and mono technics, has been recognised as a means of developing human capacity required for sustainable national growth and development. Categorically, universities are saddled with the responsibility of developing high-level manpower within the setting of the requirements of the nation. As a result of the globalisation, data innovation and revolution in the present-day learning-based economy, so much prospect has been placed on universities in creating, outfitting and transmitting information for sustainable development and improved standard of living. Consequently, the university plays a critical part in engendering the human capacities with respect to authority, administration and technical expertise.

Organisations both in the private and public sector across the globe rely on their workforce for optimum productivity which will in turn result to organisational efficiency. In this case, the need for ensuring employee job satisfaction becomes a matter of necessity to every organisation. Though, studies have been conducted by various researchers and scholars in this area, there is however the need to conduct more studies on job satisfaction and performance of an employee since the employees are believed to be an indispensable part of an organisation. Therefore, this study aims to examine the relationship between job satisfaction and performance of non-academic staff of Bauchi State University Gadau Nigeria (BASUG). Dissatisfaction is believed to be one of the major factors that demotivates and demoralise employee in the workplace which can result to lower productivity thereby affecting the overall performance of the organisation. Consequently an aggregate of two hundred and seventy questionnaires were distributed non- academic staff of BASUG based on systematic random sampling and data collected is analysed using Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS). The outcome of the analysis depicts that there is positive and significant relationship between job satisfactions on the performance of non- academic staff of the University. The study will serve as a policy guide to the management of the Nigerian Universities in areas relating to employee performance improvement through job satisfaction and it will also further make an impetus the field of organisational behaviour and human resource management
Assuring Quality in the Management of Secondary Schools in Nigeria Issues, Ch...YogeshIJTSRD
This paper examined the issues and challenges of assuring the quality of secondary schools in Nigeria and the strategies on the way forward. In doing that, such concepts like quality, quality assurance, management, secondary education and state of secondary school in Nigeria were reviewed. Irrespective of the fact that some aspects of education may be considered as improving, reviews have shown that students’ ability for practical curricular activities are deteriorating showing that quality of our educational system is poor and not assured. The challenges of assuring quality among others were observed to be increasing school enrolment, ineffective teaching and learning process, the poor motivation of teachers, lack of educational resources, lack of quality control and poor funding to schools. To overcome these challenges the paper observed the following strategies as the way forward adequate funding, adequate equipment and facilities, provision of incentives to staff, provision of qualified manpower, effective supervisory system, improving on teachers’ level of training etc. When these are done it is believed that the quality of the educational system would be achieved and assured. Therefore efforts must be made to assure quality in the secondary school system in its totality consisting of quality teaching for quality products.

Restructuring Educational Goals for National and Economic Development in Nigeriaiosrjce
Successful development strategy entails more than just formulating economic policies, investing in
physical capital, or closing the gap in capital, but also involves designing educational curriculum that has
economic relevance, having the ability to bridge the gap in economic need. This is where Nigeria and most
developing countries tend to be lacking in policy relevance. Educational policies do not seem to correlate with
economic needs, thus, with the much emphasis on compulsory education, increase in school enrolment at all
levels and the proliferation of universities in the country, national productivity and economic development
remain stiffened. Given this concern, there is need to develop knowledge- based educational curriculum in core
economic areas that requires building a strong link between universities and industry for research, development
and entrepreneurship. This will involve creating opportunities in collaboration at institutional level, capturing
the labour market and private sector needs, and capturing needs in capacity building in quality assurance,
research and leadership development in higher education. This is informed by a policy front in Education for
the attainment of Economic Objective, established by this paper.
The Impact of School Location on the Effectiveness of Secondary School Admini...ijtsrd
This study examined the impact of school location on the effectiveness of public secondary school administrators in the English Speaking Regions of Cameroon. The study reviewed literature under key headings of conceptual, theoretical and empirical reviews. The research method was the mixed method – quantitative qualitative and the research design adopted was the sequential explanatory design. A structured Likert type School Administrators’ Questionnaire SAQ and an interview guide for administrators were developed as instruments for quantitative and qualitative data collection respectively. Descriptive frequencies and percentages and inferential chi square, Spearman Rank correlation and ANOVA statistical methods, including thematic and descriptive explanations were employed for data analyses. Findings showed that 55.7 of the school administrators were satisfied with the location of their school while 44.3 of them are not satisfied. School location significantly, positively and strongly affected administrative effectiveness P=0.000, far 0. 05 . The strong and positive sign of the correlation value R= 0.606 implied that administrative effectiveness of the school administrators is more likely to increase when the location of their school is conducive and more likely to decrease when the location of their school is not conducive. This hypothetical conclusion was supported whereby a majority of the school administrators 67.6 who perceived their administrative effectiveness as low were those who indicated that the location of their school is not conducive. Thus, the null hypothesis was rejected. Based on the findings, it was recommended that the safe location of schools should become a matter of strict policy.

The Statutory Interpretation of Renewable Energy Based on Syllogism of Britis...AI Publications
The current production for energy consumption generates harmful impacts of carbon dioxide to the environment causing instability to sustainable development goals. The constitutional reforms of British Government serve to be an important means of resolving any encountered incompatibilities to political environment. This study aims to evaluate green economy using developed equation for renewable energy towards political polarization of corporate governance. The Kano Model Assessment is used to measure the equivalency of 1970 Patents Act to UK Intellectual Property tabulating the criteria for the fulfillment of sustainable development goals in respect to the environment, artificial intelligence, and dynamic dichotomy of administrative agencies and presidential restriction, as statutory interpretation development to renewable energy. The constitutional forms of British government satisfy the sustainable development goals needed to fight climate change, advocate healthy ecosystem, promote leadership of magnates, and delegate responsibilities towards green economy. The presidential partisanship must be observed to delineate parties of concerns and execute the government prescriptions in equivalence to the dichotomous relationship of technology and the environment in fulfilling the rights and privileges of all citizens. Hence, the political elites can execute corporate governance towards sustainable development of renewable energy promoting environmental parks and zero emission target of carbon dioxide discharges. The economic theory developed in statutory interpretation for renewable energy serves as a tool to reduce detrimental impacts of carbon dioxide to the environment, mitigate climate change, and produce artefacts of bioenergy and artificial intelligence promoting sustainable development. It is suggested to explore other vulnerabilities of artificial intelligence to prosper economic success.

Analysis of Value Chain of Cow Milk: The Case of Itang Special Woreda, Gambel...AI Publications
Ethiopia has a long and rich history of dairy farming, which was mostly carried out by small and marginal farmers who raised cattle, camels, goats, and sheep, among other species, for milk. Finding the Itang Special Woreda cow milk value chain is the study's main goal. In order to gather primary data, 204 smallholder dairy farmer households were randomly selected, and the market concentration ratio was calculated using 20 traders. Descriptive statistics, econometric models, and rank analysis were used to achieve the above specified goals. Out of all the participants in the milk value chain, producers, cafés, hotels, and dairy cooperatives had the largest gross marketing margins, accounting for 100% of the consumer price in channels I and II, 55% in channels III and V, and 25.5% in channels V. The number of children under five, the number of milking cows owned, the amount of money from non-dairy sources, the frequency of extension service contacts, the amount of milk produced each day, and the availability of market information were found to have an impact on smallholders' involvement in the milk market. Numerous obstacles also limited the amount of milk produced and marketed. The poll claims that general health issues, sickness, predators, and a lack of veterinary care are plaguing farmers. In order to address the issue of milk perishability, the researchers recommended the host community and organization to construct an agro milk processor, renovate the dairy cooperative in the study region, and restructure the current conventional marketing to lower the transaction and cost of milk marketing.
Minds and Machines: Impact of Emotional Intelligence on Investment Decisions ...AI Publications
In the evolving landscape of financial decision-making, this study delves into the intricate relationships among Emotional Intelligence (EI), Artificial Intelligence (AI), and Investment Decisions (ID). By scrutinizing the direct influence of human emotional intelligence on investment choices and elucidating the mediating role of AI in this process, our research seeks to unravel the complex interplay between minds and machines. Through empirical analysis, we reveal that EI not only directly impacts ID but also exerts its influence indirectly through AI-mediated pathways. The findings underscore the pivotal role of emotional awareness in investor decision-making, augmented by the technological capabilities of AI. It suggests that most investors are influenced by the identified emotional intelligence when making investment decisions. Furthermore, AI substantially impacts investors' decision-making process when it comes to investing; nevertheless, AI partially mediates the relationship between emotional intelligence and investment decisions. This nuanced understanding provides valuable insights for financial practitioners, policymakers, and researchers, emphasizing the need for holistic strategies that integrate emotional and technological dimensions in navigating the intricacies of modern investment landscapes. As the synergy between human intuition and artificial intelligence becomes increasingly integral to financial decision-making, this study contributes to the ongoing discourse on the symbiotic relationship between minds and machines in investments.0
Bronchopulmonary cancers are common cancers with a poor prognosis. It is the leading cause of death by cancer in Algeria and in the world. Behind this unfavorable prognosis hides numerous disparities according to age, sex, and exposure to risk factors, ranking 4th among incident cancers and developing countries including Algeria, all sexes combined. It ranks 2nd cancers in men and 3rd among women. Whatever the age observed, the incidence of this cancer is higher in men than in women, however the gap is narrowing to the detriment of the latter. The results of scientific research agree to relate trends in incidence and mortality rates to tobacco consumption, including passive smoking. Furthermore, other risk factors are mentioned such as exposure to asbestos in the workplace or to radon for the general population, or even genetic predisposition. However, the weight of these etiological and/or predisposing factors is in no way comparable to that of tobacco in the genesis of lung cancer and the resulting mortality. We provide a literature review in our article on the descriptive and analytical epidemiology of lung cancer.

Growth, Yield and Economic Advantage of Onion (Allium cepa L.) Varieties in R...AI Publications
Haphazard and low soil fertility, low yielding verities and poor agronomic practices are among the major factors constraining onion production in the central rift valley of Ethiopia. Therefore, a field experiment was conducted in East Showa Zone of Adami Tulu Jido Combolcha district in central rift valley areas at ziway from October 2021 to April 2022 to identify appropriate rate of NPSB fertilizer and planting pattern of onion varieties. The experiment was laid out in split plot design of factorial arrangement in three replications. The main effect of NPSB blended fertilizer rates and varieties (red coach and red king) significantly (p<0.01) influenced plant height, leaf length, leaf diameter, leaf number and fresh leaf weight, shoot dry matter per plant, and harvest index. Total dry biomass, bulb diameter, neck diameter, average fresh bulb weight, bulb dry matter, marketable bulb yield, and total bulb yield were significantly (p<0.01) influenced only by the main effect of NPSB blended fertilizer rates. In addition, unmarketable bulb yield was statistically significantly affected (p≥0.05) by the blended fertilizer rates and planting pattern. Moreover, days to 90% maturity of onion was affected by the main factor of NPSB fertilizer rate, variety and planting pattern. The non-fertilized plants in the control treatment were inferior in all parameters except unmarketable bulb yield and harvest index. Significantly higher marketable bulb yield (41 t ha-1) and total bulb yield (41.33 t ha-1) was recorded from 300 kg ha-1 NPSB blended fertilizer rate applied. Double row planting method and hybrid red coach onion variety had also gave higher growth and yields. The study revealed that the highest net benefit of Birr, 878,894 with lest cost of Birr 148,006 by the combinations of 150 kg blended NPSB ha-1 with double row planting method (40cm*20cm*7cm) and red coach variety which can be recommendable for higher marketable bulb yield and economic return of hybrid onion for small scale farmers in the study area. Also, for resource full producers (investors), highest net benefit of Birr 1,205,372 with higher cost (159,628 Birr) by application of 300 kg NPSB ha-1 is recommended as a second option. However, the research should be replicated both in season and areas to more verify the recommendations.

The ethanolic extract of canarium solomonense leaves (ecsl) was studied for its neuroprotective activity. The neuroprotective activity of ECSL was found to have a significant impact on neuronal cell death triggered by hydrogen peroxide (MTT assay) in human SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells. Scopolamine, a muscarinic receptor blocker, is frequently used to induce cognitive impairment in laboratory animals. Injections of scopolamine influence multiple cognitive functions, including motor function, short-term memory, and attention. Using the Morris water maze, the Y maze, and the passive avoidance paradigm, memory enhancing activity in scopolamine-induced amnesic rats was evaluated. Using the Morris water maze, the Y maze, and the passive avoidance paradigm, ECSL was found to have a substantial effect on the memory of scopolamine- induced amnesic rats. Our experimental data indicated that ECSL can reverse scopolamine induced amnesia and assist with memory issues.

Viral hepatitis is an infection that causes liver inflammation and damage. Several different viruses cause hepatitis, including hepatitis A, B, C, D, and E. The hepatitis A and E viruses typically cause acute infections. The hepatitis B, C, and D viruses can cause acute and chronic infections. Hepatitis A causes only acute infection and typically gets better without treatment after a few weeks. The hepatitis A virus spreads through contact with an infected person’s stool. Protection by getting the hepatitis A vaccine. Hepatitis E is typically an acute infection that gets better without treatment after several weeks. Some types of hepatitis E virus are spread by drinking water contaminated by an infected person’s stool. Other types are spread by eating undercooked pork or wild game. Hepatitis B can cause acute or chronic infection. Recommendation for screening for hepatitis B in pregnant women or in those with a high chance of being infected. Protection from hepatitis B by getting the hepatitis B vaccine. Hepatitis C can cause acute or chronic infection. Doctors usually recommend one-time screening of all adults ages 18 to 79 for hepatitis C. Early diagnosis and treatment can prevent liver damage. The hepatitis D virus is unusual because it can only infect those who have a hepatitis B virus infection. A coinfection occurs when both hepatitis D and hepatitis B infections at the same time. A superinfection occurs already have chronic hepatitis B and then become infected with hepatitis D.

NUMERICAL SIMULATIONS OF HEAT AND MASS TRANSFER IN CONDENSING HEAT EXCHANGERS...ssuser7dcef0
Power plants release a large amount of water vapor into the
atmosphere through the stack. The flue gas can be a potential
source for obtaining much needed cooling water for a power
plant. If a power plant could recover and reuse a portion of this
moisture, it could reduce its total cooling water intake
requirement. One of the most practical way to recover water
from flue gas is to use a condensing heat exchanger. The power
plant could also recover latent heat due to condensation as well
as sensible heat due to lowering the flue gas exit temperature.
Additionally, harmful acids released from the stack can be
reduced in a condensing heat exchanger by acid condensation. reduced in a condensing heat exchanger by acid condensation.
Condensation of vapors in flue gas is a complicated
phenomenon since heat and mass transfer of water vapor and
various acids simultaneously occur in the presence of noncondensable
gases such as nitrogen and oxygen. Design of a
condenser depends on the knowledge and understanding of the
heat and mass transfer processes. A computer program for
numerical simulations of water (H2O) and sulfuric acid (H2SO4)
condensation in a flue gas condensing heat exchanger was
developed using MATLAB. Governing equations based on
mass and energy balances for the system were derived to
predict variables such as flue gas exit temperature, cooling
water outlet temperature, mole fraction and condensation rates
of water and sulfuric acid vapors. The equations were solved
using an iterative solution technique with calculations of heat
and mass transfer coefficients and physical properties.

Using recycled concrete aggregates (RCA) for pavements is crucial to achieving sustainability. Implementing RCA for new pavement can minimize carbon footprint, conserve natural resources, reduce harmful emissions, and lower life cycle costs. Compared to natural aggregate (NA), RCA pavement has fewer comprehensive studies and sustainability assessments.

higher educational institutions (polytechnics) are established,
for instance, effective knowledge delivery will facilitate
entrepreneurship development and skill acquisition which
led to poverty reduction especially in developing countries
like Nigeria. Abdulkareem and Oyeniran (2011) corroborate
that polytechnics are established to serve as centers of
technological and scientific advancement, skills
development, and production of quality entrepreneurial
graduates.
However, academic staff performance has become an issue
of concern in Nigeria, most especially in Nigerian
Polytechnics, as it is still at a low ebb( Yusuf & Ogbudinkpa,
2017), and precipitate poor quality of education as reflected
in the continuous mass failure of students. Although several
educational policies have been formulatedto improve the
poor performance of lecturers in the Nigerian educational
sector(Fareo, 2013), the policies have not been well
effective.The highereducational system in Nigeria is faced
with varieties of problems. Specifically, Nigerian
polytechnics, which are among the primary higher education
providers in Nigeria, are grossly underperforming resulting
to inefficient and ineffective utilization of both material and
human resources and total decline in quality of higher
education (Babagana, 2014).
The issue of lecturers’ poor performance in the Nigerian
higher educational institutions has become an important
topic of discussion among academicians, public and non-
governmental organizations Nigerian authorities, and other
stake holders. For instance, El-Rufai, (2011) who is currently
a governor in Kaduna State Nigeria, has expressed concern
over the low performance of employees in the Nigerian
higher educational sector. Furthermore, Ning (2016) reported
that the president of the Federal Republic of Nigeria had
expressed the government`s displeasure over low
productivity and poor performance of the Nigerian higher
institutions of learning. Similarly, the Yemi Osibanjo
Nigerian vice president emphasized that the public sector in
Nigeria is surrounded by issues of low
performance,corruption, and ethical issues more especially in
the educational sector (Agba, 2015).
The problems of insufficient working environment coupled
with low performance of academic staff in the high
education sector in less developed countries like Nigeria, is
also receiving increased global attention. A conducive
working environment has been singled out as one of the
critical factors that can enable any organization, regardless
of context, to deploy, attract, and retain talented employees.
In today’s competitive higher education environment,
polytechnics can no longer afford to waste the potential of
their workforce, especially the academic staff. The working
environment that is put in place, more often than not,
impacts academic staff morale, productivity and engagement
both positively and negatively. Given poor working
condition in the educational sector in Nigeria, the federal
government of Nigeria has increased the budgetary
allocation of the education sector in 2018 from N550 billion
allocated in 2017 to N605 billion in 2018. This is to improve
the working condition especially in the higher institutions
where academic staffs and non-academic staff are
threatening to go on strike due to poor working condition
(Utomi, 2018).
Moreover, several studies have been conducted in Nigeria on
factors that can improve job performance of employees. For
instance, some studies have investigated the effect of human
resource practices (e.g., training and development)
(Babagana, 2014a; Karimi, 2014; Ugbomhe, Nosakhare,
Osagie, & Egwu, 2015; organizational commitment
(Folorunso & Abodunde, 2014); stress management (Egu,
Ememe, Obike, & Clement-Ukandu, 2014); remuneration
(Calvin, 2017); on job performance. Nevertheless, literature
has indicated that the effect of motivation and working
conditions on the job performance of lecturers have not been
given due attention in the performance research field, most
especially in the Nigerian context, even though motivation
and working conditions constitutes a basis for competitive
advantage (Delery & Roumpi, 2017), and enhanced
performance (Seidu, 2011).Based on the above exposition,
the current study proposes a framework that will empirically
test the moderating effect of working conditions on the
association between motivation and Lecturer’s Performance
in Nigerian high educational institutions.
II. LITERATURE REVIEW
Motivation
Motivation is definitely, among the major factor that impacts
the performance of employees (Osei, 2011). Motivation is
derived from the word “motivate”, which denotes to push,
influence, move, or to succeed in satisfying a want (Muogbo,
2013). Motivation refers to some driving force that impels
individuals to achieve set goals or targeted objectives, in
order to fulfill expectation or some need (Reeve 2015). It
involves the psychological, physiological and the social

aspects of human beings (Cerasoli and Ford 2014).
Specifically, in the context of work, motivation explains the
conditions that influence the arousal, direction and
maintenance of behaviors that are pertinent to the work
setting (Reeve 2015). Furthermore, motivating employee
serves as a strategy that is used by managers of human
resource to enhance employee productivity. From the context
of the relationship between performance and motivation, the
concept that employees who are highly motivated are
expected to perform high is common in management and
organizational psychology. In particular, Nelson and Quick
(2003) revealed that that a job that is high in motivation and
hygiene factors leads to high performance with less
complaints among employees.
Work Motivation is encouragement to work or something
that increases interest to work. Work Motivation in the
psychology of work is also called a driver of
morale(Narasuci & Noermijati, 2018). In earlier research
Mitchell (1982) opines that majority of studies in the field of
organizational psychology conclusively demonstrate that
individuals who are highly motivated tend to be highly
performing. For instance, Buchanan and Huczynski (1997)
revealed that motivation is the single most important
determinant of individual job performance. In addition,
Nelson and Quick (2003), revealed that motivational factors
challenge people to grow, lead to positive mental health, and
contribute to the work environment.
Furthermore, Baibaita (2010) revealed that motivation exerts
positive impact on the employees’ performance in the
Nigerian banking industry. Significant positive relationship
between motivation and productivity is also reported in a
study conducted by Aderibigbe, (2017). This indicates that,
for employees to produce at a higher level, the employers
must appropriately motivate their employees individually by
providing them their specific needs. According to Maslow,
any organization that seeks a higher level of productivity
from the employees must provide effective means of
satisfying the individual needs of the employees (such as
good salary package, bonus, transportation, security,
affiliation to workers union, consistent promotion and
others).Positive relationship between motivation and
employees performance is also reported in several studies.
For instance, ina study conducted in finding the effects of
employee’s motivation on employee performance, the results
revealed that positive relationship exist between employee
motivation and organizational performance (Shahzad Aziz,
2014) as cited in (Dahie, Jim’ale, & Ali, 2015).
Additionally, study conducted in Uganda University by
Geofrey (2010) that examined the effect of motivational
factors on lectures’ teaching, research activities, and
community service. The study revealed that, motivational
factors, significantly affected lecturers teaching and research
activities at Makerere University. Furthermore, in another
study conducted on measuring the effect of work motivation
on job performance of employees in 2013. The results
revealed that a significant and positive relationship exist
between work motivation job performances of employees in
Islamic Revolution Housing Foundation (Azar & Shafighi,
2013). It was concluded that, motivational factors have a
positive and significant effect on lecturers’ teaching and
research activities. However, negative relationships revealed
between motivation and research performance of academic
staff in a research conducted by (Abdulsalam & Abubakar
Mawoli, 2012).
Working Environment
It is unquestionable that conducive work environment
ensures the well-being of employees which invariably enable
them to perform their roles with all vigour (Taiwo, 2010).
Thus, leading to high productivity in the institution. A
working environment is the environment where people work
together to achieve the objectives of an
organizations(Tulenan, 2015). It means structures, processes,
systems, tools and all those things which interact with
employees to affect in negative or positive ways on their
performance. The work environment can be perceived in
three perspectives which include: the technical environment,
the human environment and the organisational environment
(Wilson, 2015). Technical environment refers to tools,
equipment, technological infrastructure and other physical or
technical elements.
However, Amir (2010), view that workplace is an arranged
area which is provided by the establishment to achieve its
goal. The author identified two main elements that are
related to the working condition which includes; the office
layout plan and also the office comfort. . The layout of a
workspace(I’e. cabinets, chairs, cubicles, and desks or a
work table with all types of hand tools) shall suits the task
that is to be performed. The author further stated that a
physical workplace is an area in an organization that is being
arranged so that the goal of the organization could be
achieved. Additionally, Oswald (2012), revealed that
working environment has two types which are the behavioral
component and physical component. Physical environment

consists of elements which is related to the connectivity of
office environment with the office user. While, the
behavioral environment consists of elements which connect
between users and impact of working environment on the
user's behavior.
In another way Chan &Huak (2004) suggested that working
environment discuss the environmental, physical, ecological,
social, mental and emotional appearances of employees in
the institution and organization in which they work. McCoy
& Evans (2005) pointed that working environment refer as a
pleasant area of work that do not create stress among
employees to do their assigned duty of job. Chaudhry,
Jariko, Mushtaque, Mahesa, 2017. Therefore, work
environment can be seen as physical factors that exist around
the work that can have effect on employees in carrying out
their job, it comprises of facilities and infrastructure that is
around employees performing the task (Narasuci &
Noermijati, 2018).The right type of working environment is
neededto attract users to feel comfortable, and this would
enable them to work effectively. According to Sageer et al.
(2012) employees are fully satisfied and encouraged with the
good working condition and environment, due to good
conditions employees feel happy, safety and relaxation.
Impact of working environment on employee’s performance
have been studied by the previous scholarswith substantial
evidence demonstrating employees’ perceptions on their
working conditions can affect their behaviors and attitudes,
in the workplace (Yang, Johnson, Bauer, Groer, & Salomon,
2014). However, working condition as revealed by the
previous studies considered to have both positive and
negative effects on job performance. For instance, Jayaweera
(2015), found a positive relationship between working
condition and job performance. This was also supported by
another study which revealed a positive relationship between
working environment and employee performance. Meaning
that if employees are provided with good working
conditions, they have a better opportunity to perform
positively(Yassin, Ali, Ali, & Adan, 2013).
It was also revealed byMohanty, Susmitaparija and
Ghansyamsahu (2012) as cited in Awan and Tafique Tahir
(2015)that a positive relationship exists between working
environment and employee performance and the study
further revealed that any change in working environment
impacts on employee’s performance. In a study conducted
by Bakotic and Babic (2013) revealed that employees prefer
to work in working environment that is less risky.Significant
positive effect is also reported between work environment
and employee performance. Conversely, Tulenan, (2015)
found that the workplace environment impacts employee
morale, productivity and engagement both positively and
negatively. However, negative working condition is found to
have more detrimental consequence on organizational
citizenship behavior for employees with more traditional
values (Wang, Lu, & Lu, 2014).In Another study, Ali, Ali &
Adnan (2014) maintained that working conditions are
essential to the organization. If the employees have a
negative perception of their working conditions, they are
likely to be absent, have a stress-related illness, and their
productivity and commitment tend to be low.
Employee Performance
Review of literature shown that several studies used various
types of measures to assess employee’s performance in
different kinds of organization setting (Holtz, 2010). Some
of the measures include:- managers’ assessment, peer
assessment, team assessment, self-assessment, 360 degrees
or “full-circle” assessment, management by objective
(MBO) etc. These measures can be categorized
under.(Sonnentag, Volmer, & Spychala, 2009) claims that
the concept of performance is multi-dimensional and
involves many objective (judgments) and subjective criteria.
Objective measures of employee’s performance refer to the
evaluation of performance using official records such as
attendance register or archival personnel record to determine
the frequency of his/her presence or number of times
employee attended to his/her duty. While Subjective
measures of performance including ranking and rating of
performance usually by the employee immediate supervisor,
himself (self-rating), or peer group. In other word this
method of measuring performance is called evaluation, it can
be done by implementing performance rating which is filled
by colleagues or supervisors and it is said to be the most
utilized technique to measure performance (Sinnappan,
2017).
Other authors viewed employee’s performance from
different angles. For instance, Riyanto, Sutrisno, and Ali
(2017) states that the performance is a result achieved by a
person under the measure applies to the work concerned.
Also Prasetya and Kato (2011) viewed performance as the
achieved results of operations with the capabilities of the
employee who acts in certain situations. Malik and Ghafoor
(2011) defined employee performance basically depend on
many factors like performance employee motivation,

employee satisfaction, compensation, training and
development, job security, organizational structure and
others. Oswald (2012) said that performance is the
combination of employees and other supporting equipment
being available, competent, productive, responsive and
effective which is almost similar to Hill and Aylwin (2005).
According Mangkunegara (2011. p. 67) the dimensions of
employee performance is divided into five, namely the
quality of work, quantity of work, responsibility, co-
operation and initiatives.
Conceptual Framework
Based on the above literature, the conceptual model
proposed in this paper is presented in Fig 1. The independent
variable in this research is the Motivation, moderating
variable is working environment in which the employees are
working within an organization and the dependent variable is
the employee’s performance. Working environment includes
the working hours, job safety, job security, relationship
among employees, supervisors and subordinates, esteem
needs of employees and the influence of top management on
the work of employees motivation is adapted from (Hetharia,
Sailah, & Yulianda, 2019).

III. CONCLUSION
The research finding depends on the results of hypotheses
test. However, this study review and theoretically, examine
the relationship between motivation (achievement,
recognition, monetary benefits, employee welfare, training
and development, reward), Work Environment (physical
environment, interpersonal relationships, supervisor support,
safety and security) and employee’s performance (teaching,
research, community service, efficiency, effectiveness,
innovativeness, and responsiveness). From the
comprehensive review of past researchers in this area, it is
found that motivation hasa significant positive relationship
with employee’s performance. Previous research also
revealed that Work Environment influence employees

performance positively. This study may, in a long way,
support by providing input to policymakers in making
various decisions. Also, having an understanding on how
motivation and working environment relates with
employee’s performance, various parties such as
government, private organizations, and other institutions
regulatory bodies should be encourage to motivate their staff
and change working environment on how it will positively
affect the performance of employees.
