Abstract
The job satisfaction ratings of Nigerian Police Force officers from six geographical zones were assessed to evaluate its impact on their professional development. A survey was conducted with 400 officers to collect primary data. The research used descriptive, diagnostic, and inferential statistics, including frequency counts, regression, and simple percentages. The regression study indicated that work security, supervision, decent salary, personal development, job satisfaction, and job incentive systems significantly influenced the Nigerian Police Force. The model fits the data well as shown by the F-statistic with a p-value of 0.000, showing that the model is statistically significant. The results suggest that the Nigerian police force should emphasise enhancing job satisfaction. This would enable staff members to use their diverse skill sets to assist in achieving the commission's objectives, thereby boosting employee happiness. This study applies Frederick Herzberg's Motivator-Hygiene Theory (1959) to the Nigerian police force to investigate the relationship between personal hygiene and motivation for job satisfaction and personal improvement.
