Abstract
The success and survival of an organization depends to a great extent on its employees’ performance. If the employees perform satisfactorily, the organization also prospers. People are the most important asset in an organization as they are essential for the optimum utilization of all the other organizational resources (Sandrick, 2003).
The present study is focused on assessment of impact of demographic variables on the work performance of employees of Himachal Pradesh Power Corporation Limited (HPPCL). A sample of 200 HPPCL employees has been selected by using convenience sampling technique.
Results of the study show that age has a statistically significant impact on the work performance of employees. Gender, hierarchical level, income and marital status have, however, been found to have no statistically significant impact on work performance. The employees of HPPCL have been found to perform their duties satisfactorily. Task Performance and Contextual Performance have been found to contribute to the Overall Work Performance of an employee, whereas Counter-productive Work Behaviorhas been found to decrease the Overall Work Performance.
