CHAPTER ONE: GENERAL INTRODUCTION

1.1 BACKGROUND OF STUDY

Employee motivation is one of the most essential parts of a company’s development and success. In order to maximize the overall performance of the company, it is vital for an employer to understand what motivates the employees and how to increase their job satisfaction. It might, however, be challenging for a company to find out what motivates its employees, especially because different people are motivated by different things. A well designed and functional reward system is an efficient way to increase employee work motivation. The appropriate type of reward is developed in accordance with the company's reward philosophy, strategies, and policy. However, it might be challenging to find the right way to combine the company’s integrated policies and practices together with the employee’s contribution, skill, and competence. Nigeria is a nation that is blessed with abundant human and material resources, in spite of these; it is surprising to observe that Nigeria is still rated among the less developed countries in the world. This may be attributed to the fact that human and material resources are poorly harnessed and utilized. One of the poor utilization of human and material 11 resources in Nigeria is the Nigeria Attitude to work which is highly attributed to motivation.

1.2 STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM

The problem here is that most organizations have gone under because their organizational reward systems do not favor employees and thereby do not motivate them towards putting their best into jobs. There are many discrepancies that occur in organizations due to an inappropriate reward system. Also as a reward system is in the field of human resources, it is an opportunity to increase my knowledge in this complex field. One of the problems that can be identified in the organization is motivation. This has become a serious concern since we are dealing with a fast-evolving environment. The workforce has adapted to be flexible with new working hours, work with new tools, and even being multi-skilled, both technical and interpersonal. Moreover, workforce flexibility is requiring employees to have the ability to adapt to relatively management supervision. The present working environment presents stressful factors where the workforce finds itself more and more pushed to its limits. Moreover, there is the problem of absenteeism. An organization without a good reward system often finds itself in conditions of a high rate of absenteeism. This weights heavy on the balance of the organization since 12 it is not operating at full capacity. In the end, the origination will have no option but to take action against its own employees. This will defiantly cause more trouble and will further affect the proper running of the organization. Another problem is the low performance of the employees. Low reward the system can lead to low performance of employees in an organization. Because rewards boost the morale of the employees in an organization. Much concern has been put to the rewarding of employees since performance appraisal is carried out. There has always been this concern as the rightly rewarding employee has a direct impact on the performance, productivity and satisfaction of the employee’s performance has become a cornerstone for rewarding

1.4 RESEARCH QUESTIONS

1. What motivates the employees of the Coca-Cola bottling company?

2. Which reward system do the employees perceive the most motivating?

3. How can the reward systems be further developed?

4. Does an organization reward system have an impact on workers productivity

5. Does an organization reward system improve the impact on the cost of production

1.5 RESEARCH HYPOTHESES

The following hypothesis will be tested

I.

HO: A satisfactory reward system will have no impact on workers productivity.

Hi: A satisfactory reward system will have some impact on workers productivity

II.

Ho: An organization reward system has no significant impact on the cost of production

Hi: An organization reward system has a significant impact on the cost of production

III.

Ho: There is no significant between the attitude of a motivated employee and a non-motivated employee conflict management

IV. 

Hi: There is a sign between the attitude of a motivated employee and a non-motivated employee conflict management
