The effect of compensation on employees’ performance: A case of a technical university in Ghana.

Abstract

The study investigated the effect of compensation on employee’s performance Accra Technical University: Ghana. Descriptive survey design was used for the investigation. A simple random sampling technique was used to sample 40 respondents out of a total population of 57 Administrators of which 35 responded to the Twenty-item questionnaire. Frequency tables were used to present the responses. The main conclusions were that administrators were not attracted by the monetary aspect of compensation but rather management sensitivity to their needs. We also find that, housing loan and accommodation are the most crucial needs. The recommendation was that Management should create another form of set-off package alongside with the one in the condition of service to encourage workers to put up their best.
