| description | Project performance is a critical issue for the construction industry. Project deliverables such
as timely completion and client satisfaction are often used as yardsticks to determine success.
More often that not, the success of a construction project hinges on the ability of the
construction project manager to effectively perform his job functions with the intended
efficacy. As such this paper intends to firstly identify the relationship between work
environment factors and job performance and secondly to rank these work environment
factors in the order of importance. Respondents comprising of project managers in
construction firms throughout the northern region of Peninsular Malaysia were selected as
the sample population. Questionnaires were then distributed and collected. From the analysis
conducted on the gathered data, it was found that the performance level of the project
manager had a very high correlation with the level of authority as well as the type of client
within a specific project. |
