dc.description.abstract | The research study is on the effects of innovation on the job security and performance of automobile craftsmen and master craftsmen in Nigeria. The study sought to identify how the current innovations in modern vehicles affect the job security and performance of automobile craftsmen/master craftsmen; and to identify ways to be adopted to enable automobile craftsmen/master craftsmen to cope with innovations in modern vehicles. A 20 items questionnaire was use to collect data from automobile craftsmen and master craftsmen from Federal Science and Technical College (FSTC) Orozo, and Government Science and Technical College (GSTC) Garki, both in Abuja. Mean (X ̅) and Standard Deviation (SD) were used to analyze the data collected from the respondents. The study among others found that; automobile craftsmen/master craftsmen finds it difficult to diagnose and repair most electronic faults in modern vehicles and usually complicate simple faults during troubleshooting. The study among others recommended that; federal government should organize periodic training and retraining courses to update and upgrade the work skills of automobile craftsmen/master craftsmen and to periodically review the technical college curriculum to enable automobile craftsmen to acquire the needed current innovative knowledge to improve their performance skills and to secure their job.The research study is on the effects of innovation on the job security and performance of automobile craftsmen and master craftsmen in Nigeria.
