CHAPTER ONE
1.1 INTRODUCTION
Majority of people with particular
reference to the elite will be wondering why the inadequate human resources on
the performance of government establishments. A research supply will sound like
asking an obvious question what are the causes of the inadequate human
resources on the performance of government establishments. Given some answers
to the above question I will start by first emphasizing the importance of human
resources in every economy. Trended French described human resources as
consisting of all individuals who are engaged in any of the organizational
activities regardless of their level.
Human resources from above mean men and
women working for an organization irrespective of the post they are holding.
However, this went further to emphasize that there was no demarcation for men
and women working for the organization that does not belong to human resources
of the organization. Therefore, the human resources of the government
establishment e.g. ministry ranges from the commissioner down to the
messengers.
Meanwhile, all activities in the
organization depend on human resources either public or private organization.
Therefore, any establishment aiming at achieving its goal must ensure not only
maintaining constant and adequate supply of human resources but also ensuring
that they are adequately motivated.
From the above, we can clearly understand
that the goals of the establishment cannot be achieved only by providing and
ensuring adequate supply of human resources. This is because the human resources
that are not motivated will not be answering human resources of the
establishment without giving their best.
Perhaps, commendations must be made to the
Training as one of the requirements for the Award of Diploma Certificate in the
institution.
This was because during my sister’s
industrial attachment work with the board of Internal Revenue Enugu. That the
effect of inadequate human resources on the performance of Government
establishments was identified. I was always visiting her at the office on daily
bases and I shared her experiences. Then the identified problem was taken to
Caritas University Enugu to be approved for further research (BSc. Project).
This was how the research topic came about.
Moreover, some of us are not opportune to
go into some establishments being it private or government establishments but
may doubt that there are no inadequacy in human resources on the performance of
government establishments. This research topic was chosen out of practical
experience.
This was because my information handled a
competent schedule of duty, which my sister was supposed not to do as a
student.
Furthermore, surprise came upon her when
she was asked to cover the schedule of two (2) persons at a time which was due
to inadequate human resources on the establishment, from the above mentioned
reasons, the aims of finding some ways of minimizing the effect of inadequate
human resources on the performance of government establishment and possibly to
make suggestions on how to eliminate the problem of inadequate human resources
confronting government establishments.
Finally, this research will therefore, be a
contribution towards finding some of the causes and effects of inadequate human
resources on the performance of government establishments. Also, some
suggestions will be made on how best to remedy the problem.
1.2 STATEMENT OF PROBLEMS

1.3 OBJECTIVE OF THE SUTDY
Smith and Brown were of the opinion
that goal setting as at the heart of the performance appraisal process of
organization gives meaning and relevance to appraisal and development
activities. The objectives of this research will be as follows:

Therefore when the government Department concerned got informed, the objective
of this study will be achieved. This effect will be that they will make
immediate arrangement to recruit more people in the ministry.

inadequacies were existing. This will enable the government department
concerned to know exactly the levels where their recruitment/promotion exercise
will focus for quicker action.
c.
Finally, to identify how to tackle the
poor management lack of training and who is supposed to build up the government
human resources inadequate. Government as referred above is every body.
Therefore, effort needs to be made to identify. The segment of government that
is vested with the task.
The
effects of identifying how and who will advice government on some of the causes
and effects of inadequate human resources on the performance of government
establishments. This was because it is only when the causes of a particular
problem are identified that some remedial solutions should be embarking on:
·
Immediate recruitment of more human
resources.
·
Workers should enjoy remuneration
employment of qualified staff.
·
Promotion should be done when due

productivity as well as efficiency.
Finally
if all these been looked into it will improve the inadequate human resources
performance in government establishments because objective is not only to

includes mismanagement of available of human resources. Even though there was

the people employed are not qualified to take up the Job because they were
employed on the bases of godfathers.
·
However, some authors were of opinion
that the reasons for inadequate performance in Government establishments were
because those employed are lacking the skills needed.
