Abstract
Background: Employee remunerations and welfare packages naturally
constitute the two major determinate factors that stimulate negative or positive
reactions towards employee performance in an organisation.
Objective: The study examines the effects of remuneration and welfare
packages on employee performance in Nigerian public universities.
Methodology: The researcher employed a mixed research method. A total
of 100 questionnaires were administered to the academics and non-academic
staff of the University of Ilorin and Kwara State University Malate through
random sampling; hypotheses were tested using simple percentages and chi square.
Results: This menace has resulted in many negative effects, such as strikes,
protests, corruption, dismal performance, slow development, side work, and
nonchalant attitude, among other factors, within the staff of Nigerian public
universities.
Conclusion: Policies on remunerations should be reviewed, salaries and
wages should be paid as when due; also, employees taking home pay should
be capable of taking care of their needs, and welfare packages should be
improved in order to improve employee performance for an effective, efficient
and workable Nigeria public enterprises
