CENTRE FOR PUBLIC SERVICE PRODUCTIVITY AND DEVELOPMENT (CPSPD)
There is an alarming decline in Productivity in Africa's
National Economy especially in the Public Sector. This has
led to a decline in quality of life in most africa countries.
Despite the huge budgetary allocations in most African countries,
the undeveloped economy syndrome still persists. There
are manufacturing plants that produce below capacity,
uncompetitive goods and services, millions of public sector
workforce for that are mostly under utilized, unproductive and
poorly remunerated.
These has challenged governments is most Africa
countries and their various Labour and productivity
ministries and parastatals to study, research, promote and
institutionalize productivity culture. However the rut has
defied solution despite laudable efforts and huge allocations.
To complement the effort of government and International
agencies such as International Labour Organization (ILO),
United Nation Development Programme.(UNDP), United Nations Conference for Trade and Development (UNCTAD), Asia Productivity
Organization (APO), European Association of National
Productivity Centre (EANPC), Pan African Productivity
Association (PAPA), etc the Centre for Public Sector
Productivity and Development (CPSPD) was registered as
a non governmental and non - profit organization as a
world class productivity centre in Africa. The first of its
kind in Africa.
