This research work titled “Effect of Reward on Employee Productivity: A case Study of A.B.U. Demonstration Secondary School Zaria, focused on the problems associated with lack of effective reward system in Demonstration Secondary School A.B.U. Zaria. These are lack of uniformity in the reward system of staff, no uniformity in the exhibition of skills by the teachers due to lack of effective reward system and lack of uniformity in financial reward system. Therefore, the study is aimed at evaluating the effects of financial reward as a motivating factor for higher productivity. It is also aimed at finding out the role of financial reward in attracting and retaining workers in an organization. The study employed the following hypotheses to aid the research. – That Productivity in A.B.U.

That is, on the issue of lack of uniformity in reward system of the school in hypothesis one, 65.2% of the respondents were of the view that lack of uniformity in reward system makes productivity low. The second hypothesis, which is on the issue of lack of uniformity in the exhibition of skill by teachers as a result of ineffective reward system.
