| dc.description.abstract | Every organization will always strive to have the right personnel at the workplace capable of
effectively and efficiently completing the work required by the organization so as to achieve
its objectives. This study sought to establish the determinants of employee performance in
donor-funded programs at the College of Health Sciences (CHS), University of Nairobi
(UoN) based on factors that influence employee performance. The objectives of this research
were; to assess the influence of pay system to employee performance in donor-funded
programs at the CHS, UoN; to establish the influence of leadership on employee performance
in donor-funded programs at the CHS, UoN; to assess the influence of non-monetary
incentives on employee performance in donor-funded programs at the CHS, UoN; to identify
the influence of organization culture on employee performance in donor-funded programs at
the CHS, UoN and to examine the influence of work-life conflicts on the performance of
employees in donor funded programs at the CHS, UoN. The study employed a descriptive
cross-sectional research design using a structured questionnaire as the data collection
instrument. A census was done for employees working in ten (10) donor-funded programs at
the College of Health Sciences which led to a total of fifty-one (51) employees. Data analysis
was done using the Statistical Packages for Social Sciences (SPSS) software. The study
established that the pay system, leadership, non-monetary incentives, organizational culture
and work-life conflicts influenced employee performance for workers in donor-funded
programs at the College of Health Sciences, University of Nairobi and recommended:
introduction of more fringe benefits that would boost employee performance, communication
on the programs’ objectives to employees to enhance their performance, involvement of
employees in decision making, setting goals and giving feedback, use of targets to encourage
to productivity and give formal supports to employees such as family-oriented policies job
sharing and sick child care will help the employees deal with work-life conflicts. | en_US |
