Industrial Relations, Labour Productivity and National Development in Nigeria, 1990-2014: A Political Economy Approach

Journal Title: Asian Journal Social Sciences & Humanities - Year 2015, Vol 4, Issue 4

Abstract

The nexus between industrial relations, labour productivity and national development in Nigeria, 1990-2014, was studied from a political economy perspective, against the background of the expectations of the political class that a labour force that is exposed to the insecurity and massive corruption of the Nigerian state can drive national development through enhanced labour productivity. This study interrogated Nigeria’s political and economic fact sheet since 1990, and concluded that without an enabling environment, including the necessary security architecture, labour productivity and national development cannot flourish, and the government has a responsibility in bringing this about.
