Abstract

Quality jobs, a multidimensional construct, have been perceived differently in labour management literature. The view that the quality of earnings is the primary determinant of job quality has been criticized. This study, therefore, investigates the characteristics and major factors determining quality jobs among the youths in Lagos, Nigeria. Leveraging on the rational actor theory, Maslow's theory of needs, and Amartya Sen’s capability approach, four hundred (400) employees, mainly youths, across occupational sectors within Lagos, Nigeria, were sampled. Using descriptive statistics and exploratory factor analysis, the study revealed that though wage (quality of earning) is an essential factor determining youths’ perception of a job, findings revealed other vital factors that youths consider in determining quality jobs. The work environment, dignity, and workers’ protection, among others, are identified in this study as determinants of quality jobs. Far-reaching implications, both practical and policy-oriented, emerged for all stakeholders.

Abstract

This study examines the relationship between industrial sector performance (ISP), human capital development (HCD), and economicgrowth (EG) in Nigeria. Data used in this study was obtained from World Development Indicators (WDI) and Penn World from 1981 to 2020 on GDP/capita, human capital index, and industrial output. The augmented Dickey-Fuller (ADF) test was applied to obtain the stationarity conditions of the variables before performing the autoregressive distributed lag test to determine the short- and long-run relationships among the variables. The study reveals no long-run relationship among the variables; however, a negligible impact on human capital and industrial output in the short term exists, highlighting the need for government intervention. This is thefirst study to examine the tripartite relationship between industrial sector performance, human capital development, and economic growth in the Nigerian context, providing insight into the dynamics of the relationships in developing countries.
