Compliance Level of Junior Staff to Work Ethics in Delta State Tertiary Institutions

This study examined compliance level of junior staff to work ethics in Delta state tertiary institutions. A descriptive survey research design was used to investigate the study. To guide the study, three research hypotheses were raised. Questionnaire tagged “junior staff compliance to work ethics questionnaire” was used to collect data needed for the study. The population of the study was made up of 1,598 junior staff in the selected tertiary institutions out of which a sample of 799 junior staffs representing 50% made up of male and female junior workers was drawn from the population. Data collected were analyzed using ANOVA statistical tool to test the stated hypotheses at 0.05 level of significance. The researcher’s findings revealed that the level of compliance of junior staff to work ethics is poor in studied tertiary institutions. It is therefore recommended that institution management should ensure that the work environment for their junior staff is conducive and make available working equipment/tools, good working conditions, regular promotion and training of junior staff be organized by institution administrators and heads on the importance of ethical compliance to the organization for junior workers.
