The study employed descriptive research design with a target population of 111 employees and sample population of 58 respondents was selected using simple random sampling method. Semi-structured questionnaires were employed to collect primary data. SPSS descriptive statistics analysed quantitative data (version 24). Descriptive statistics such as mean and standard deviation were carried out. Further inferential statistics specifically multiple regression analysis was conducted. Data was presented using tables.
