Abstract:
Adopting staff motivation practices in a business by the management, boosts the organizational
productivity since the employees are encouraged and motivated to work harder in order to boost
production .This research investigated the impact of staff motivation practices on organizational
productivity, with a focus on identifying the key factors that drove employee performance and
subsequently the overall productivity of a firm. This was a case study of TACC Stores, a store
which deals with home interiors and sanitaryware. The study specifically examined the effect of
monetary incentives; recognition and rewards and career development opportunities on the
organizational productivity. Over the recent years, various organizations have adopted the policy
of motivating their employees in order to boost their production. They have significantly adopted
various techniques and practices of staff motivation, ranging from recognition, empowerment,
career development, and many more other practices. Based on this, this research seeks to
investigate the impact of staff motivation practices on organizational productivity. Various
studies that have been done indicate that factors like empowerment and recognition have a
positive effect on employee motivation. Recognition and empowerment play an essential part in
enhancing employee motivation towards organizational task (Manzoor, 2011). Other studies that
have been done indicate that 66% of organizational productivity is explained by staff motivation
practices. Most researches that have been done only study the effect of employee motivation on
employee performance not focusing on the organizational productivity. This study used a
qualitative approach of data collection. The data was collected through administering
questionnaires to the employees of TACC Stores. A target population of 40 employees was used.
The sample size for this study was 12 employees. Primary data was collected and the data
analyzed qualitatively.
