Abstract

This descriptive survey research aimed to investigate the relationship between remuneration, retirement benefits, and the productivity of non-academic staff in public universities in Southwest Nigeria. The study utilized a multistage sampling procedure to select 1200 non-academic staff from six universities, incorporating both federal and state institutions. Data were collected through self-designed instruments, namely the Conditions of Service Questionnaire (CSQ) and the Non-academic Staff Job Productivity Questionnaire (NSJPQ), focusing on remuneration, retirement benefits, and job productivity. Validity and reliability checks were performed on the instruments to ensure the accuracy of the collected data. The study concluded that remuneration and retirement benefits do not significantly influence the productivity of non-academic staff in universities. In light of these findings, recommendations were proposed, including an increase in the minimum wages for non-academic staff and the importance of ensuring regular payment of contributory pensions to guarantee a secure future for pension beneficiaries after retirement. These recommendations aim to address potential concerns regarding the financial well-being and job productivity of non-academic staff in Southwest Nigerian universities.
