CHAPTER ONE

INTRODUCTION

1.1 BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY

For staff to improve in their productive potential have been always one of their major concerns of the employers of labour. It is a fact that all businessmen are all to maximize profit. Although profits can only be maximized when potentials of staffs are improved to increase productivity giving the increase in the demand of the firm’s products.

In the case of micro-economy, staffs productivity creates a powerful impact in a country’s total output economic welfare. Infact, the public and private sectors of our economy depend on the caliber of the nation’s manpower resources. The days of working by trail have disappeared.

Today, an increasing attention is being focused on the role of staffs development and training on social and economic advancement of the nation. With the drive towards technological advancement in Nigeria, training of staff inevitable. For example, the conversion to the use of electronic computers and telecommunications have virtually made very industry to change their operations.

Thus, one of the crucial functions of the executive and of course the personnel administration is to ensure that staffs without the necessary skills are helped to acquired them while those who do are helped to update them (Nwachukwu 1980).

The output of any staff depends on the skills he has. Therefore, it training is added to the already existing skill, the result is increase in output.

However, the above discussion is centered on the importance of training on the staffs’ productivity.

1.2 STATEMENT OF PROBLEM

Generally, the story in the selected manufacturing companies Rivers State is that of poor performance inspite of encouragement from government and efforts of private sectors (Cookey 1998). We have discovered over the years that private firms and government sectors hardly produce beyond certain points as if there are physical negative that are impossible for them to cross.

Infact, any staff that is not properly trained is bound to be frustrated with his jobs and the end product result will be the firms low productivity.

Here, in Rivers State as one of the most industrialized state in Nigeria, employment of workers by the oil companies in the state in various positions are becoming very difficult due to lack of trained staffs to occupy the professional positions. The people of the state suffer and the entire country face employment problem as the industrializing firm resort to making used of train staffs from the western world, and this condition results failures in our economy.
