1.2 Statement of the Problem
Public/Civil
Servants, in contemporary public organizations in Nigeria, exhibit
discipline at a minimal level coupled with some elements of
indiscipline. In this condition, for example, staff may report for duty,
in time and sometimes late. On arrival, they may perform their duties
without seriousness. After spending few hours on duty some of them take
permission to go out of the workplace while others just sneak or vanish.
Another group may go to drinking houses or beer parlors’, to return to
the office only towards the closing time. Some of them may take
permission to stay away from the office or workplace for a number of
days for fabricated reasons. Others may just absent themselves for
reasons that are far from cogent (Ochai, 1984). It is needless to say
that productivity is affected negatively by these vices of staff in the
public sector. According to Adebayo (2001), such acts of indiscipline
include lethargy, apathy, laziness, rudeness to members of the public,
malingering, presenting false sick certificates in order to go and
attend to private businesses and a host of other deplorable attitudes.
