Cristine Geroy

Discipline: Education

 

Abstract:

For any business to serve and satisfy both customers and employees, employee productivity is essential. Leveraging the full potential of their workforce, ensuring long-term gains in productivity, and fostering a culture of ongoing improvement for the purpose of attaining organizational excellence. This study seeks to describe the level of employees’ commitment, job satisfaction, teamwork, and training on productivity. After scientific validation and reliability tests, questionnaires were used as data-gathering tools. Data for this descriptive correlational and causal research design was employed for the study and purposive sampling was done in choosing the participants gathered from the 518 staff and faculty members in Higher Education Institution. Results revealed that employee productivity was positively correlated with other variables, indicating that high productivity levels were associated with higher levels of commitment, job satisfaction, effective teamwork, and training initiative benefits. Nonetheless, Higher Education employees’ productivity is significantly influenced by teamwork and training. This means that when there is teamwork among the employees and top management, and employees are provided with relevant training, employees’ productivity will significantly increase.
