CHAPTER ONE

INTRODUCTION

BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY

The management of time is an issue which is fundamental to job performance. In the past, attention to the relationship between time and job performance was restricted to manual workers and then, by means of organization and methods to clerical workers.

The consideration of time utilization for managerial and professional grades has not received much attention until recently current approaches are based on the assumption that personal effectiveness at work is primarily a function of the individual management of his or her time.

For productivity to be high, the judicious time usage is very important, without the proper usage of time, there will be lower productivity within an organization. As a manager in an organization one must be very conscious on the use of time, for poor utilization of time will affect the entire organization’s output. If a manager makes use of his time effectively and efficiently, the organization, will be in a path to growth and development. The subordinates will also be motivated to put in their best for the organization, been that the manager has perfectly demonstrated to them the importance of time utilization. If there is no time target on a particular task, productivity will be low, which is going to adversely affect the organization negatively.

STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM

Despite the importance of time in the provision of goods and services in an organization, not much attention seems to have been paid to it.

In Nigeria, workers are not time conscious and such duties or task are not being discharged as at when needed, with regards to this, productivity turns out to be low, due to delay in performances of various task. Due to poor output, most organization’s objectives is designed to provide satisfaction to customers needs. However, these are the developments that prompt the researcher to identify the following problems in the course of this study.

There is the existence of ignorance on the part of management in regards to the scope and specific use of time saving formalities.
Where such skills exist, the level of utilization is too marginal.
Also lack of prior training of managers and supervisors in the schedule of study, delegating duties when possible to enhance output at the end of the day is another cause of concern

OBJECTIVE OF THE STUDY

The major objective of this research is to examine the effect of time management on the production of goods and services, as well as, to determine the lessons, learnt from the results data collected through this research.

However, in specification, the study is to address the following issues

To find out the time-consciousness of the staffs in relations to their productivity.
To assess the effects of time management on productivity in an organization.

STATEMENT OF HYPOTHESIS

The following hypothesis has been formulated to this work.

Ho: There is no relationship between higher productivity and effective management.

H1: There is relationship between higher productivity and effective time management.

SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY

Considering the importance of time management in the attainment of set goals by organizations, it is hoped that the findings of this study would be beneficial to policy makers and future researcher.

Policy Makers: These study is expected to provide adequate information needed by policy makers to formulate policies as to time saving methods and how they can utilize them to enhance productivity.
Future Researcher: Future researcher will find this project work useful and interesting when making research on a related topic or when there is need for review on this particular topic. Thus project work will serve as a foundation that will ease further research.

SCOPE OF THE STUDY

These study covers the effects and problems of time management in seven-up (7up) Bottling Company, Kaduna Plc center as a case study. In the course of this study 7up Bottling company Kaduna branch with a large number of staffs would be utilized to solicit interaction on whether or not the organization is aware of the services of time management, and the application effect of time management in enhancing productivity.

This study and timing dates back from 2008 to 2011, of the seven up plant of Kaduna branch, in which the researcher lays emphasis on. This entire study covers the seven-up plant of Kaduna branch as the area of this study.

LIMITATION OF THE STUDY

One of the major constraint faced by the researcher at the process of this study is inappropriate information on the side of the management. Sometimes the researcher goes to the Company without getting much response from the management, due to some obstacles such as time limit; this hinders the researcher from getting proper information for this study.

Confidentiality on the side of the company’s information is a challenge also faced by the researcher during the course of this explore.

The cost incurred in times of transportation down to the factory, is another major challenge faced by the researcher at the process of the researcher’s investigation, which makes the work to be much more slower and ineffective in the side of the researcher

Inconvenience by the researcher, in moving at random irrespective of his commitments is also one of the challenges faced.
