Effects of Discipline Management on the Performance of Employee of Judicial Service, Cape Coast

Abstract

The aim of the study, according to the researchers, was to see how disciplinary management affected employee performance in the Cape Coast Metropolitan and especially considering the Judicial Service. The study's specific objectives were to ascertain some of the factors that contribute to judicial indiscipline, assess employee knowledge of judicial disciplinary action, ascertain how judicial disciplinary procedures are implemented, and also to ascertain the effect of judicial disciplinary policy and action on employee performance. This study used a descriptive survey design and a quantitative research approach was adopted. A structured questionnaire was used to collect data from the 80 respondents out of the population of 100. Descriptive statistics such as mean and standard deviation were used to examine quantitative data with the help of Statistical Package for Social Science. Regardless of the similarities and differences between disciplinary processes and concepts, it has been shown that discipline management techniques have an effect on employee performance. The Judicial Service, on the other hand, may enhance employee performance by stressing disciplinary management methods. As a consequence, the study recommends that court disciplinary processes be strengthened to discourage workers from participating in work-related misbehaviour.
