CHAPTER ONE

INTRODUCTION

1.1    Background of the Study

          Productivity is very important in the development of any country because it will help to improve the standard and quality of life of the citizens.

          The issue of low productivity by public service have in recent time been a matter of great concert to the nation, let us first of all define the term or rather make an attempt to the definition of productivity. Productivity simply means the level of efficiency of work especially in industrial production. Increased productivity will improve the conditions of the environment as well as to enhance security.

          This why David Ricardo stated in his study of population “that food needs to grow at a geometric progression in order to meet the demand of the growing population this emphasized the need for increased productivity

          Yesufu (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 problem of raising out put demands for efficient use of all available resources. With these definitions, one may ask why is the Nigeria public service inherently characterized by low productivity in spite of all Government efforts to improve productivity the company under study is Nigeria Television Authority (N.T.A) channel 12 Owerri. In the bid to achieve increased productivity, the company will adopt a suitable leadership style, train employees as and when due, run a participative management, offer good remumeration etc it is therefore that will enhance productivity. Increasing productivity is a way of increasing the ability of people to do what thy want to do as such that it can provide the whelem that for achieving a higher standard of living for those suffering from low income and inversely boosting the prosperity of the over all Nigeria economy.

1.2    Statement of the Problem 

          There have been concerted effort by the Government and the organized private sector to enhance productivity in Nigeria. For instance, the Federal and State Government organizes seminars and workshops aimed at making its also have the national merit award to individuals who have distinguished themselves in terms of being highly productive. In spite of all the efforts being made, the public sector is still experiencing low or decreased productivity as much of the personnel are not putting in their best, some are idle, others come late to work and still others are absent from work without a reasonable excuse which contributes to low productivity especially in the public sectors. In other countries, their level of technology is very high thereby enhancing their level of productivity, which put them in a favourable position in the international market.

1.3    Objective of the Study

A major significance of this study is that it will serve as another contribution to the academic development theories of productivity.

1.7    Scope of the Study

          According to Osuala (1988), an adequate statement of this problem also defines it very carefully in terms of its scope, and it is obvious for a researcher to set forth the bounds of the topic being researched on based on this, the scope of this study covers Nigeria television authority (N.T.A) Owerri Imo State.

1.8    Limitation of the Study

          Imo State Government was a premier Government carried out of the best central State. The case study Nigerian television Authority (N.T.A) Owerri is Located in the heart of the town-No Bank road Owerri Imo State in writing this project, the research collected data through questionnaires some questionnaires were given by hand others through the internal.

Financial constraint also hampered the success of this work because the distance between the residential place of the researcher and the company had an untold heavy cost and suffering on the researcher.

          The researcher was also in capacitated by time, the compination of high academic study were quite.
