Abstract
ABSTRACT
This study examined the effect of compensation on employee productivity in the United Bank for Africa (UBA), Gboko Branch. Compensation remains one of the most critical factors influencing employee motivation, commitment, and performance, especially in the banking sector where service quality and efficiency are essential. The study adopted a descriptive survey research design. Primary data were collected through structured questionnaires administered to employees of UBA Gboko Branch. Data were analyzed using simple percentages and frequency tables. Findings revealed that adequate and timely compensation significantly enhances employee productivity, motivation, and job satisfaction. The study also found that poor compensation packages negatively affect employee morale and performance. The study concludes that effective compensation management is vital for improving productivity in the banking sector and recommends regular review of compensation policies, performance-based rewards, and non-financial incentives.
