ANALYSIS OF FACTORS
RESPONSIBLE FOR LOW PRODUCTIVITY OF NIGERIA WORKERS IN THE PRIVATE SECTOR
(A CASE STUDY OF NBL
9TH MILE CORNERS NGWO)
ABSTRACT
The research on the factors responsible for low-productivity of Nigeria workers
in the private sector with particular reference to Nigeria Breweries 9th
mile corners Ngwo Enugu State was intended to determine how to increase
productivity in Nigerian economy. In conducting the research reference was made
to related literature.
Questionnaires were also used for collection of data for the study. Other forms
of data collection were also used e.g. personal observation and consultation of
textbooks. It was not all that easy, so there were some limitations which in
one way or the other affected the findings of the research.
Tables were used to present, analyze and interpret the data. At the end,
findings based on the data and other consultations revealed that, factors like
breakdown of machine and equipment, poor management, high rate of labour
turnover and lack of production goal cause low productivity .
Recommendations and conclusions were made based on the findings in order to
help solve this problem of low-productivity in Nigeria workers.

CHAPTER ONE
INTRODUCTION
1.1 BACKGROUND OF THE
STUDY
The issue of low productivity of Nigeria workers has in recent years been a
matter of grate concern to the nation. The rate at which productivity grows is
influenced by two things: -
(i) The
rate of society’s demand and the rate of inflation.
Increased productivity is very vital for the health of the country because it
will help to improve the conditions of the environment, enhance security and
improve the standard and quality of life of the citizens. This is why David
Ricada in his study of population said that food needs to grow at a geometrical
rate in order to meet the demand of the growing population. This emphasizes the
need for increased productivity.
Yesufu T.M. (1962) was of the view that productivity can be defined as the
ratio between output and all the resources used in production i.e. capital,
labour, raw materials etc. the most efficient use of all available resources.
With these definitions; One may ask why is the Nigeria worker inherently
characterized by low-productivity in spite of all government’s efforts to
improve the economy and the ever increasing need for improved productivity? The
answer to this disturbing question is vital and will be answered and discussed
in this study.
Increasing productivity is a way of increasing the ability of people to do what
they want, to do as well as achieving a higher standard of living for all
suffering from low income and in boosting the prosperity of the overall Nigeria
economy.
1.2
STATEMENT OF PROBLEM
Nigerians
have so much complained about a low productivity of Nigerian workers. Even
workers themselves have also been worried about their own level of
productivity. Some of them believe if one’s output is high, it will motivate
one much towards working harder and thereby increasing productivity, as high
output makes one to be satisfied.
Nigerians cannot withstand the competition in the world market; this is also
attributed to low- productivity especially in the industries in the private
sectors. This is because; most of the product used in Nigeria is manufactured
by them. In other countries their level of technology is high so their
productivity is usually high and as such they do well in international market.
It can now be seen that low-productivity is a general issue in Nigeria and also
a big problem in Nigeria and it adversely affects the economy. Nigerians are
faced with several hardships in the country. Low-productivity of our industries
is one of the notable causes of this. It makes cost of many products to
be high as many people want to buy the few available products.
This study will therefore find out the factors responsible for this
low-productivity in the private sector of the Nigerian economy using NBL 9th
Mile as the case study.
1.3
PURPOSE OF THE STUDY
The
depressing economic situation of things in our country led to the carrying out
of this research as the bad economy can be attributable to low-productivity in
our industries.
The purpose of this study is therefore to find out those factors which are
responsible for low-productivity in Nigeria workers especially in the private
sector; from the findings the writer will recommend possible solutions. This
will help our workers in the industries to increase their performance and thus
help to improve the standard of living and the general economy of Nigeria.
1.4
SCOPE OF THE STUDY
The scope of shall cover only Nigeria Breweries Plc 9th mile corner
Ngwo. The study is concerned with factors responsible for low-productivity in
Nigeria workers in the private sectors. Measurement of productivity in the
business enterprises is relatively quite simple because of the existence of
clear – cut relationship between inputs and out-put.
On the basis of the above, this research did not give much consideration to the
problems relating to productivity is not easily quantifiable.
1.5
RESEARCH QUESTIONS
The
following research questions have been designed to guide this study: -
1.
What are the factors responsible for low productivity in Nigeria workers in the
private sector?
2.
Is the level of productivity of industries in the private sector important to
the Nigerian economy?
3.
What are the influences of low-productivity in Nigeria workers on Nigerian
economy?
1.6

This
very study is aimed at examining those factors affecting workers’ productivity
in the private sector. Therefore the result of this research will then do the
following:
1.
Potential consumers will benefit for they will be supplied with the products
they want and their money’s worth satisfied.
2.
The management will also benefit when there is improvement in productivity of
