Abstract :   

This study investigated the influence of employee-management relationships on employee productivity in five select Ministries in Akwa Ibom State Civil Service. The performance of any organization is tied to the caliber of its employees who are undisputedly regarded as the assets of the organization. No matter the resources that an organization is blessed with, these resources cannot produce any result without the input of employees who handle the day-to-day running of the establishment. The study was conducted in five ministries based in Uyo, Akwa Ibom State, Nigeria. They include: the Ministry of Information and Strategy; the Ministry of Special Duties and Ibom Deep Sea Port; the Ministry of Economic Development; the Ministry of Education as well as Ministry of Environment and Solid Minerals. The purposive sampling procedure was used to select the sample from the population of the study which was 1,350 employees. A questionnaire was issued based on the research aims and administered to 278 respondents using Levi’s Stratified Sampling Computation for Proportional Distribution of Questionnaire. Key findings portrayed that employee-management relations in the government ministries are cordial and that there is a positive influence of employee-management relations on employee performance thereby leading to productivity. The recommendations included among others, employee-management training, and skills development programmes; increased communication platforms for employees and managers to promote better communication; welfare programmes to improve employee well-being and provision of adequate work tools.
