ABSTRACT
The main objective of this research was to assess the relationship between motivation and worker’s performance. Findings from this work revealed that motivation is the most important factor in workers performance and that financial incentives alone cannot fully motivate workers to perform well which indicates that there are other factors that motivate good performance. This includes; job security, good working conditions, good working relation with colleagues and employers, participation in decision making, training etc. On the basis of the findings the study recommends among other things that:
- Promotion should be based on merit not on wrong criteria or improper selection procedures which can generate feelings of alienation, frustration, dissatisfaction and industrial conflicts
- Employees should be allowed to play an active role in decision making in an organization because it gives them a sense of belonging.
- Training schemes for all categories of workers at the interval of between two to three years should be introduced. As continuous training and development of employees at all levels is essential to improve performance and to increase their level of commitment.

1.1 BACKGROUND TO THE STUDY
The importance of human resources to organization is great and cannot be over emphasized. Although there are different resources available to an organization, people-the human resources are the most important. This is because they manipulate other resources for the advancement and the achievement of goals and objectives of an organization. Among animals and among primitive men, work is motivated directly by the need for food, shelter, self defence and by supporting social needs-the interest of the group. In pre-industrial societies, work was motivated by need in order to attain maximum satisfaction and is closely linked with other social activities. In modern times, work has become divorced from other spheres of life, most people do not consume the fruit of their labour, they paid for it. The prime aim of an organization is goal orientation and its attainment. However, the major dilemma of every organization is the successful accommodation of organization rationality along side with human happiness. Having a competent human resource is necessary but not sufficient, organizations.....
