Abstract— In the modern world, education is broadly established to be the prominent mechanism for
promoting economic progress. In Nigeria Higher education, which is a crucial aspect of education, and is
expected to contribute significantly to economic growth and development. The objective of this study is to
primarily through relevant literature, review previous literature in finding the effects of motivation on
employee performance; moderating effects of working environment. This study provides comprehensive
oversights on the relationship between motivation, working environment and employee’s performance of higher
education in Nigeria. Previous literature reveals there is a dearth of studies exploring the association between
the variables under studies whether conceptual or empirical. Though, the findings of the few studies reviewed
there were inconsistent, the paper suggest that there is positive relationship between motivation, working
environment and employee’s performance. The study recommends the framework to be tested empirically by
testing the moderating effect of working environment on the relationship between motivation and employee’s
performance.
Keywords— Motivation, Employees Performance, Job Performance, Working Environment.
I. INTRODUCTION
In the ever-changing global knowledge and innovation
economy, it is incontestable that higher education institutions
ought to make it a top priority to attract, deploy, motivate,
develop and retain talented academic staff. For Nigeria,
education becomes inevitable for it to survive and regain her
lost glory as an Africa‘slargest (in terms of population) and
perhaps third Africa‘s richest country (Scheffran, Marmer, &
Sow, 2012). Higher education, which is a crucial aspect of
education, is expected to contribute significantly to
economic growth, development and competitive advantage
of Nigeria by imparting knowledge and skills to current and
potential manpower(Rabah, 2016).
Academic staff performance is a strong and significant
predictor of quality higher education, because job
performance of lecturers will lead to success of educational
institutions and achievements of students (Abbasi & Mir,
2012), contributes in shaping the country’s potentials toward
their sustainable national development, transformation, and
quality education(Oke, Ogundele, & Mainoma,
2017).Effective job performance by the academic staff can
lead to the realization of the broad objectives for which

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.

Abstract— In the modern world, education is broadly established to be the prominent mechanism for promoting economic progress. In Nigeria Higher education, which is a crucial aspect of education, and is expected to contribute significantly to economic growth and development. The objective of this study is to primarily through relevant literature, review previous literature in finding the effects of motivation on employee performance; moderating effects of working environment. This study provides comprehensive oversights on the relationship between motivation, working environment and employee’s performance of higher education in Nigeria. Previous literature reveals there is a dearth of studies exploring the association between the variables under studies whether conceptual or empirical. Though, the findings of the few studies reviewed there were inconsistent, the paper suggest that there is positive relationship between motivation, working environment and employee’s performance. The study recommends the framework to be tested empirically by testing the moderating effect of working environment on the relationship between motivation and employee’s performance. Keywords— Motivation, Employees Performance, Job Performance, Working Environment. I. INTRODUCTION In the ever-changing global knowledge and innovation economy, it is incontestable that higher education institutions ought to make it a top priority to attract, deploy, motivate, develop and retain talented academic staff. For Nigeria, education becomes inevitable for it to survive and regain her lost glory as an Africa‘slargest (in terms of population) and perhaps third Africa‘s richest country (Scheffran, Marmer, & Sow, 2012). Higher education, which is a crucial aspect of education, is expected to contribute significantly to economic growth, development and competitive advantage of Nigeria by imparting knowledge and skills to current and potential manpower(Rabah, 2016). Academic staff performance is a strong and significant predictor of quality higher education, because job performance of lecturers will lead to success of educational institutions and achievements of students (Abbasi & Mir, 2012), contributes in shaping the country’s potentials toward their sustainable national development, transformation, and quality education(Oke, Ogundele, & Mainoma, 2017).Effective job performance by the academic staff can lead to the realization of the broad objectives for which

International journal of Engineering, Business and Management (IJEBM) [Vol-4, Issue-6, Nov-Dec, 2020] https://dx.doi.org/10.22161/ijebm.4.6.3 ISSN: 2456-7817 www.aipublications.com Page | 110 Open Access 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

International journal of Engineering, Business and Management (IJEBM) [Vol-4, Issue-6, Nov-Dec, 2020] https://dx.doi.org/10.22161/ijebm.4.6.3 ISSN: 2456-7817 www.aipublications.com Page | 111 Open Access 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

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,

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). MD DV Fig.1: Research Model 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 Motivation Monetary Benefits Employee Welfare Training and Development Achievement Recognition Reward Working environment Organizational Policy Physical Environment Interpersonal Relationships Supervisor Support Safety and Security Employee’s performance Teaching Research Community Service Efficiency Effectiveness Innovativeness Responsiveness

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.
