Many organizations are struggling to make sure that available employees exert reasonable effort to make sure that organizations can achieve its desired goals. In order for employees to perform better their duties toward achieving organization goal, there is a need to be rewarded accordingly in exchange of their labour power, in rewarding employees organizations make them capable of doing better, try harder and expend more energy. With scarcity of monetary reward mainly in public organizations, organizations have alternatively considered using non monetary incentives in inducing employees to exert more effort toward accomplishment of tasks provided. Performance of employees in any organization is vital not only for the growth of the organization but also for the growth of individual employee. The challenges facing many organizations are how to induce employees’ efforts in the production process. An organization must know who are its outstanding performers, those who need additional training and those not contributing to the efficiency and welfare of the company or organization.
