Abstract

Academic institutions play significant roles in the development of many countries in terms of human resource development, quality researches, industrial consultancy services, etcetera which are major functions performed by the lecturers in tertiary institutions. However, in Nigeria the performance level of university lecturers has been very unsatisfactory. It has been shown that lecturers’ performance is not satisfactory in Nigerian universities and has been one of the factors responsible for the decay in the education sector. In the same way it was shown that perceived organisational injustice among other things is responsible for the poor performance of the lecturers; therefore there is the need for an urgent solution to the problem. This paper proposes a conceptual framework to examine a mediating effect of organisational identification on the relationship between organisational justice and employee task performance. The Paper concludes that organisational identification will mediate the relationship between organizational justice and employee task performance. Keywords: Employee Performance, Extra-role Behaviour, Organizational Identification, Organizational Justice, Task Performance
