People are the central point on which any organisation like the College of Education Ekiadolor as a case study revolves and they are instrumental in every aspect of the institutions. It is therefore paramount to note that job satisfaction is of vital important to the success to an organisation in view of its relevance, effort have to be made to ensure that workers both academic and non academic staff put in their best for the benefit of the institution.
It is obvious that the amount of effort workers will put on a job de4pends largely on the degree of job satisfaction they receive. Job satisfaction in the management circle refers to workers performance in the attainment of institutional goals. It is also seen as that inner force which direct an individual period of time. However, what, what job satisfaction people in given period of time varies from person to person. Most management believes that those things which job satisfaction, their workers are non monetary rewards and bonus or fringe benefits. but these ideas have been proved wrong by managerial experience. However, there are not silent factors that job satisfaction people expect greatly, these includes incentives that relate to affiliation and personal recognition sense of belonging, security, sympathetic, understanding of personal problems and work well done- Bareison and Stainer (1994:42) sees job satisfaction as an inner state that energizes activities, move and direct or channels behaviour towards goals. In a working environment like the College of Education, Ekiadolor job satisfaction is an effort designed to energize or induce workers as the case may be to perform effectively as to enhance fulfillment of goals. Flippo (1983) added that just as employee has certain wants their employee are expected to supply the institution, in another hand have certain type of behaviour that it hopes to elicit from the employee. It is therefore becomes instructive that to strike a balance and create a harmonious co-existence management has to consider side by side the research shall in the course of work focus on the effect of job satisfaction in respect of academic staff and non academic staff of College of Education, Ekiadolor like any other institution, workers needs and wants are no doubt numerous.
