Increasing staff satisfaction is very vital and important factor for the success of an organization. Considering the civil service commission of plateau state Nigeria as a case study; the level of organisational performance is dependent on the level of job satisifaction of the employees in the civil service commission is mainly dependent on the motivational factors from the federal government of Nigeria since their dutie covers many areas of human resource management.

The civil service commision, generally need efficient management of their available resources to achieve their objectives. As it is often said, the job of a manager entails getting result through people. These results are achieved through guidance, leadership, encouragement and motivation of the people that perform the job. As the performance of any one on his job is affected by a combination of both ability and motivation, this is done through the formulation of good personnel policies as stated by Sanusi (1998) “to achieve efficiency and effectiveness in any organization, required that we develop a long range of motivational (personnel) policies to enhance the capacity of workers and to anticipate and influence changes in performance in the organization” .These personnel policies are written statement of an organizations goal, and intentions concerning matters that affected the people in the organization (normally contained in the memoranda and Article of association of the said organization).

Nonetheless, research on job satisfaction has been, for the most part, focused on investigating the situational factors affecting job satisfaction of workers and has overlooked the individual-based features (Templer 2012), particularly age-related factors as pointed out by Kooij et al. (2008).
