The focus of this paper is to examine Employee Welfare Scheme as a Driving Force to Workers Performance: A Study of Selected Insurance Firms in Portharcourt. The study adopted survey approach in its design. The researchers used a sample of 101 insurance sector workers drawn from ten insurance firms in Portharcourt. The major instrument for data collection was a five point Likert scale questionnaire titled employee welfare scheme and workers performance questionnaire (EWSandEPQ), data analysis was based on the 98 questionnaire that was accurately filled and returned. The statistical tools for data analysis are: simple percentage and the Non-Parametric Kruskalwallis test using the 23.0 version of the statistical package for social sciences software (SPSS). This paper concludes therefore that employee’s welfare scheme provided by insurance firms has significant effect on the performance of their employees. It is the recommendation of this paper that to achieve the above, insurance firms must improve on the welfare schemes they offer to their employees especially as it affects the facilitative and economic welfare scheme which has shown to have direct impact on employees performance (H = 0.001 and 0.000 respectively). Furthermore, the provision of recreational welfare scheme shouldn’t be made priority policy issue.
