Abstract
All of an organization's objectives can only be met by its workforce. Efficient employee relations tactics foster both individual and group dedication to attaining superiority and aid in establishing a nurturing workplace. This study looks at how employee performance is affected by labor relations practices in a few South-South Nigerian universities. The cross-sectional research design was used in this study. The Southern Region of Nigeria's Federal, State, and Private Universities were the sources of the study population. Ninety university staff members served as the sample. A structured questionnaire that was self-administered was used as the data gathering instrument. Descriptive statistics were employed in the analysis of the data. The results showed that employee performance is highly impacted by promotions. The study also showed that worker performance in South-South Nigerian universities was impacted by employee training. The study suggests that university administration pay more attention to how these are carried out. More time and resources should be allocated to training since it would enhance employee performance if it were successfully implemented.
