A representive sample of 92 employees and the entire population survey of BOG members shall be taken as respondents.

There are a number of limitations anticipated in the undertaking of this research project. This includes financial constraints, access of past data related to recruitment as well as shortage of time since the researcher is fully engaged in a full time job. Some respondents may also be unwilling to co-operate out of the fear of what may happen to them hence forcing the researcher to have a slightly reduced number of respondents. This may ultimately affect the quality of information gathered.
Questionnaires for BOG members shall be mailed to them while those for the sampled employees shall be hand delivered and picked once they are fully filled within two weeks from the time they are delivered.
