a better working environment, market-based salaries, job security, and empowerment. People and how they are
managed are becoming more important because many other sources of competitive success are less powerful
than they used to. Recognizing that the basis for competitive advantage has changed is essential to develop a
different frame of reference for considering issues of human resource management.

employee motivation at the organization in the energy sector. The research design adopted was a descriptive
survey research design. The population of the study consisted of all employees of four departments in the
