    • 1.2   STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM
      Employee performance no doubt is a prerequisite for the growth of any organisation or even a nation. The absence of employee performance is a national disaster in Nigeria. No wonder the nation is not moving forward. The current agitations, gingles and adverts by NULGE as advocacy for the autonomy of local government councils is an indicator of dissatisfaction with their job. Salaries of local council employees are delayed, and that is even when it is paid at all.
      The academic thrust is not spared of this crises, the ever lingering strikes by the academic and non-academic staff unions of universities and polytechnics have always been on the premises of dissatisfied working terms and poor remuneration package.
      Productivity suffers a lag if compensation is poor or inappropriately used. Some of the problems associated with reward management system include the following; the negotiation and bargaining period of total reward system is difficult. This is so because, some portions of total reward were not backed up by laws/legislations but by negotiation and bargaining processes. Sometimes, the employer proves very difficult to negotiate with. While the employee wants the highest and the best package, the employer would like to minimize cost as much as possible for profit maximization. Bad and depressed economic condition in Nigeria makes it difficult to fully implement a good compensation management system.
      In organised societies, firms see an average worker as the root source of quality and productivity gains. Those organisations or nations do not look at capital investments but to employees, as the fundamental source of improvement. Over there, is an increased emphasis on people as a key source of competitive advantage, often being regarded as the key differentiator between organisations, and many managers try to comprehend the complexities of motivating people at work and provide them with job satisfaction so that they can gain employee commitment.
      Most employers of labour in Nigeria disregard labour laws and edicts. Sometimes, this situation leaves the dejected employee with no other condition than to accept what is offered to him, otherwise, he will face unemployment consequences. Therefore, this study seeks to determine the Effect of Remuneration on Employees Job Performance with reference to Ikorodu Local Government Area (LGA).
