EXPLORING THE ROLE OF BUILT WORK ENVIRONMENT ON JOB PERFORMANCE OF HIGH SCHOOL TEACHERS IN LEKKI - LAGOS

Abstract

The role of the built work environment in shaping job performance among high school teachers is a topic of great interest and relevance. This study investigates the relationship between the built work environment and job performance among high school teachers in Lekki, Lagos. Additionally, the study seeks to explore the influence of working experience and gender on job performance. To address these research questions, a quantitative research design is employed. A sample of high school teachers from selected schools in the Lagos State, Education District III, Falomo, Ikoyi are surveyed using standardized measures to assess their perceptions of the built work environment and job performance. Statistical analysis, including correlation and regression analysis was conducted to determine the relationship between the variables of interest. Furthermore, teachers with varying years of experience are compared to explore whether those with greater experience exhibit higher levels of job performance. Additionally, the study expects to find that teachers with more years of experience will exhibit higher levels of job performance. Regarding gender differences, the study will explore whether male teachers outperform their female counterparts in job performance. In conclusion, the implications of this research are relevant for educational institutions and policymakers. Understanding the impact of the built work environment on job performance can guide the design and management of school facilities to create environments that promote teacher effectiveness and satisfaction. The findings have the potential to inform educational practices and policies, ultimately leading to improved job performance and well-being among teachers, and subsequently enhancing the quality of education provided to students
