dc.description.abstract | The target of any construction firm is to improve its productivity and organisational efficiency. Unfortunately, the productivity of construction operatives in Nigeria has been established to be very low and various studies also established that motivation influences productivity. The purpose of this study is to identify and assess the motivational factors for improving stakeholders within Abuja. Questionnaire survey design approach was adopted the self-administration of questionnaires on project managers, supervisors and craftsmen on selected active construction project sites in Abuja was used for the study. Both stratified and purposive sampling techniques were employed in the study. Collected data were analysed using descriptive (such as frequency, percentile and Relative Importance Index (RII)) and inferential statistics (Spearman rank correlation). The findings revealed that timely payment of salary, promotion opportunity, proper recognition and rewards by the authority on the job, provision of good working environment (condition), and opportunity for career advancement/career improvement were the key motivational factors that improve productivity. There was a general agreement among project managers, supervisors, and site workers on the ranking of the motivational factors. The study concluded that when adequate attention is paid to these recommended that these motivational factors should be reviewed regularly based on the productivity of the workers. The management needs to review salaries, working conditions and other benefits to workers from time to time and organise training and re-training to maintain constant productivity improvement. | en_US |
