Abstract

Purpose: This study determined workplace bullying and how it affects employees' performance, while it specifically examined workplace aggression and how it relates to the occupational stress of workers in the selected manufacturing firms in Anambra State. Research Methodology: The study made use of a survey research design. The population consisted of 167 staff of 10 selected manufacturing and made use of the census method in sampling. The data collection instrument was a Likert-structured questionnaire which was subjected to both validity and reliability tests. Data analysis was done using simple regression and the hypothesis was tested at a 5% level of significance. Result: The finding revealed that a positive relationship exists between workplace aggression and occupational stress and that a 90% change in occupational stress is a result of changes in workplace aggression (R = .904; R2 = 898; F statistics = 7097.588; p-value < .05). Limitation: The study made use of just 10 manufacturing firms which might reduce the inferrability of the work. Contribution: The study provided empirical evidence as to the relationship between workplace aggression and occupational stress in manufacturing firms in Anambra State which appear not to have been done before. Novelty: The study made use of a self-structured questionnaire that took into consideration the operational environment of the firms and the characteristics of the employees and work relationships.

Research Methodology: A survey research design was chosen for the study. The population of the study consisted of 250 staff of 5 selected commercial banks in the studied area. The sample size used, as arrived by the use of Krejcie and Morgan sample size formula was 152. The instrument used for data collection was a Likert-structured questionnaire, which was subjected to both validity and reliability test. The data collected were analyzed through the use of a simple regression technique, and the hypothesis was tested at a 5% level of significance. Result: The result revealed that the correlation coefficient as represented by R is .915, signifying a 92% relationship between the variables while R-Square which represented the coefficient of the determination indicates that an 84% change in the performance of employees is accounted for by changes in employee emotional literacy. Limitation: The inferral powers of this study may be questioned as only a region in Nigeria was examined. Contribution: All the studies looked at empirically did not take cognizance of employee emotional literacy as a measure of employee resilience and none of the studies was carried out in southeast, Nigeria, hence, making this work fill an important gap that served as a contribution. Novelty: This study recognized that emotional literacy could be used to measure employee resilience and thus, represents something new within the context of the research area.

Data were elicited through a structured questionnaire while the analysis was carried out using Simple Regression Analysis and hypothesis tested at a 5% level of significance. Results: The findings showed that there is a statistically significant relationship between Distributive Justice Climate and Job Satisfaction in Microfinance Banks in South-East Nigeria (r = .962; R-Square = .926; F = 5865.689; p-value<.05) and that there is a statistically significant relationship existing between Open Communication Climate and Positive Meaning in Microfinance Banks in South-East Nigeria (r = .982; R-Square = .965; F = 13000.304; p-value<.05). Limitations: Because of the concentration of commercial banks in Anambra state, most of the banks selected for the study through a random method were from Anambra State. This could affect the generalizability of the findings. Contribution: This study contributed to the already existing body of knowledge on Organizational Climate and Employee Engagement. The study also revealed empirical results of the relationship between the variables of the study, specifically in commercial banks in South-East Nigeria.
