The most important dependent variable in industrial and organization psychology is job performance, one of the major concerns of manufacturing companies has focused on improving worker productivity, Which is one of the job performance measures. Performance can also be described as the mean through which organizational member contribute to achieve the objective of the organization.

On the other hand when you expect little from employees they will give you low performance in return, as set put – to fail syndrome. Many people feel that they are not recognized or appreciated by their employees for their hand work and in turn develop decreased motivation. Lack of communication and feedback from employer cause employees to feel overlooked and inhibits them from performing     to the best of their ability.

Employee motivation is one of the strategies of managers to enhance effective job performance among worker in organization. Motivation as  a basic psychological process is the management process of influencing behaviour based on the knowledge of what make people think. Luthans (1998) asserts that motivation is the process that Grouses energizes, directs, and sustains behaviours and performance.

That is the process of stimulating people to action and to achieve a desired task. One way of stimulating people to employ effective motivation, which makes workers more satisfied with and committed to their jobs. .

Money is not the only motivation. There are other incentives which can also serve as motivation. However in order to observe an effective work

performance in an organization work motivation may not be only key factor as put by Luthans (1998).

To increase productivity at work management need some strategies in which particularly work motivation leadership effectiveness and time management are promised.

1.5    LIMITATION OF STUDY

The conduct of research in Nigeria and indeed all developing countries is imbued with a lot of problems. This research work has been limited by time and financial constraints the scope of this study is limited to First Bank of Nigeria PLC. Few branches of First Bank plc within Lagos State.

The willingness of Staff in disclosing Information due to staff competition in the banking industry constitutes another limitation.

Also the show flow of traffic in Lagos metropolis contributed in limiting the scope of this study work.

1.6    SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY

This study has a practical significance and it can be useful to manager and decision makers in the following ways first, the findings of this study will help the organization under study and other organization to know how best to reward hard working employees.

Secondly, it will assist the organization to relate reward to the performance of their employees, by pointing out the effect of reward system on the motivation of staff, employers would be assisted to adopt the most appropriate reward that would bring forth better performance of employees in this era of economic recession.

It is also expected that by this effort every individual performance will be rewarded according to achievement in other words, reward should be geared towards motivation performance if the objectives / goals of the organization are to be achieved. A situation whereby employees are given across the board, reward irrespective of their performance breeds frustration and lack of commitment on the part of the high flyer employees. This study shall endeavour to establish why reward should be based on individual performance and achievement rather than on any other factor. This the only way effective performance, which is essential for the success of an organization can be achieved.
