Introduction

  

Productivity and Motivation is an important element in all work organizations. This is because, the survival and continuity of the organization really depends on it. As a result of this, research effort geared towards the concept has spanned over centuries. One of the major concerns of earlier research efforts is to uncover those factors that could enhance of affect the productive dispositions of people in the workplace. Although series of research efforts have been directed towards analyzing the impact of motivation on employee’s behavior but few of such researches were empirically situated and not much of such were carried out in private organizations in Nigeria. It is against this backdrop that this research effort empirically examined the influence of motivational packages on productive prospect of employees using workers of CNSSL, Ilorin as the case in point. Survey design was adopted to achieve the objectives of the study. Data for the study were generated through the use of questionnaire. Frequency Distribution was used for descriptive analysis while chi-square (X²) was used as the inferential statistical tool. The study found that motivational factors have significant influence on productivity prospects of the employees. The study thus concluded that motivation is an important determinant of employee’s productivity and it thus recommended that employers of labor should take the motivational packages of their employees into cognizance because it (motivation) goes a long way in making them to support the organizational objectives and also improve their general productivity level.
