Abstract
Most institutions are now implementing cost minimization strategies, such as opting for
temporal and casual labour. The foregoing had propelled investigations in various parts
of the world to verify the reality of job insecurity in different sectors, industries, and
institutions. However, researchers of Nigerian extraction have not been quite forthcoming
on studies relating to either job security or insecurity; more so, as concerning job
security in tertiary institutions. This study is therefore geared toward closing the gap, by
conducting this exploratory study captioned 'Strategic analysis of job security of
professional staff in Nigerian public universities. The exploratory research design was
employed for the study, the scope is comprised of professional staff in public universities
in Nigeria. Secondary data were used for the study, such as journal articles, internet
sources; e-library; national, corporate, and professional reports. Strategic analysis was
employed to dissect the job security of professional staff in Nigerian public universities.
Findings show that professional staff in Nigerian public universities are not well
developed to have their job secured. The researchers conclude that, as it were, the jobs
of professional staff in Nigerian public universities are insecure. The study recommends
that professional staff in Nigerian public universities need to acquire modern skills that
can make them perpetually relevant until they retire and are tired.
