Abstract

Motivation is considered one of the crucial aspects for the management to ensure the employee’s positive contribution to the organization objective. Previous studies have shown that employee performance will be less efficient if they will not be motivated. Such a situation will be more serious in the cases of the governmental sector especially in those sectors providing essential community services such as educational services. Therefore, this study was conducted to assess the role of allowance, promotion and appreciation on the employee performance in Khalifa University. The case study approach adopted through the implementation of the quantitative methodology, using designed questionnaires as a data collection method. The study found that allowances, appreciation and promotion have a positive relationship with employee performance. Thus, the study recommended a set of recommendations to enhance employee performance.
