Abstract

This study that examined the negative impacts of casualisation on employees’ performances observed that despite the different international conventions and positions as well as national, local, and organisational policies against casualisations, many organisations including private and public in the different industries in developing economies like Nigeria are still deeply into it.The study adopted a descriptive survey approach by electronically administering questionnaire on 120 employees of the adopted case study using the purposive and random sampling techniques. With a return rate of 80.33% the study analyzed gathered opinions using the simple percentage and multiple regression statistical tools. The results confirmed that casualisation in different forms including agency, technical, quasi permanent, technical, etc. significantly and negatively impact on the concerned employees’ performances of assigned tasks and taking up contextual roles. Consequently, the study recommended that serious, concerted and significant efforts should be made by concerned organisations to stop casualisation as employees’ performances are significantly being affected negatively as revealed by this study and that relevant authorities should step up their regulatory and supervisory roles to stop these discriminatory and almost inhuman practice.
