The study found out that there was skeweness in terms of provision of career development, training, appreciation, recognition, membership to the Social Security Fund, team work, working condition, paid leave, housing allowances and allowance among staff. Such that senior staff were given more priority than the low class staff. Having staff who are not well motivated was reported to endanger the spirit of providing optimal services to the clients.
