Abstract

In general, the ill health of elderly inmates can contribute to and represent an enormous burden of disease in society. In addition, if the elderly inmates do not have proper health-promoting habits, they will always suffer from health problems and this may shorten their lives in correctional institutions. Lack of health promoting habit of the geriatric inmates predisposes them to diseases and health problems especially mental problems. This can seriously strain available healthcare facilities and frustrate available resources that could have been directed in other productive directions. This study identified health-promoting habits of geriatric inmates in south-west Nigeria; examined the socioeconomic characteristics influencing the health behaviours of geriatric inmates in south-western Nigeria and; examined the challenges faced by geriatric inmates in their attempt to obtain health care in the selected correctional facilities in the study area. A cross-sectional study using questionnaire and in-depth-interview showed that geriatric inmates observed moment of rest, engaged in athletics, go for medical check-ups and eating balance diets as their health-promoting habits. Logistic regression showed influence of  family support on health promoting habits of the geriatric inmates in the institution (OR: 2.046; P< 0.05; 95% CI1.053-3.976)  and lack of fund for health care was the major challenge that geriatric inmates face in accessing health care in the institution. The paper concluded that health promoting-habits of the geriatric inmate were poor and this called for attention from government and correctional staff in Nigeria.

Abstract

Workplace misconduct continues to pose a significant challenge with widespread effects on employee well-being and organizational performance. This research explores the impact of abusive supervision and sexual harassment, two common forms of misconduct, on employee productivity within private enterprises in Nigeria. Drawing from Feminist Theory and Organizational Justice Theory, a qualitative approach was used to examine the experiences of employees at three prominent companies (MTN Nigeria, Shoprite, and Guaranty Trust Bank). Through in-depth interviews, it was revealed that both abusive supervision and sexual harassment lead to reduced productivity and negative consequences for employees. Victims expressed feelings of demoralization, increased stress, higher rates of absenteeism, and diminished job performance as a result of these behaviors, aligning with existing literature. Participants shared various coping mechanisms, such as avoidance, endurance, and formal reporting. The study emphasized the sense of powerlessness, unfairness, and the crucial role of organizational support. Findings were analyzed from feminist and justice perspectives, highlighting how power dynamics and perceptions of fairness influence outcomes. The research concluded with recommendations for Nigerian enterprises to enforce strict anti-harassment policies, provide ethical leadership training for supervisors, bolster reporting systems, and foster a culture of respect and fairness to safeguard employees, improve productivity, and uphold justice in the workplace.
