Background of the Study
Employee recognition is a powerful tool for enhancing job satisfaction, motivating employees, and promoting job commitment. Recognition programs acknowledge employees for their contributions, reinforcing positive behavior and increasing overall performance (Olatunji, 2023). In the banking industry, where employees are often under significant pressure to meet targets and provide high-quality service, recognition programs can foster a strong sense of loyalty and commitment to the organization. Access Bank Plc, one of Nigeria’s leading financial institutions, operates in a competitive environment where attracting and retaining skilled employees is crucial for maintaining market dominance.
In Zamfara State, Access Bank has a diverse workforce with varying levels of experience and roles, and ensuring that employees feel recognized for their efforts is essential for maintaining high levels of job commitment. Despite the introduction of employee recognition programs, there are concerns about their effectiveness in promoting long-term job commitment, especially given the high turnover rates in the banking sector. This study aims to examine the relationship between employee recognition and job commitment at Access Bank Plc in Zamfara State and explore the factors that contribute to a successful recognition program.
Statement of the Problem
Although Access Bank Plc has implemented recognition programs aimed at increasing employee motivation and commitment, the impact of these programs on job commitment in the bank's Zamfara State branch is not fully understood. Employees may feel that recognition efforts are insufficient or not aligned with their expectations, which could hinder job commitment. Understanding the relationship between recognition and job commitment is crucial for improving employee engagement and retention. This study will investigate the effectiveness of employee recognition programs and their impact on job commitment within Access Bank Plc in Zamfara State.
