Abstract
This study investigated the relationship between corporate social responsibility focusing on (work environment, employee wellbeing) and job performance among employees in selected microfinance banks in Ogun State, Nigeria in which purposive sampling was used. Using a quantitative research design, data were collected from 122 respondents through a structured questionnaire. Pearson correlation analysis was employed to test the relationships between the variables. The results revealed a strong positive and statistically significant relationship between work environment and job performance (r = 0.703, p < 0.01), indicating that employees who perceive their work environment as conducive tend to perform better. Similarly, a strong positive and statistically significant relationship was found between employee wellbeing and job performance (r = 0.681, p < 0.01), suggesting that higher levels of wellbeing are associated with improved job performance. The study concludes that creating a supportive work environment and implementing robust wellbeing programs can significantly enhance employee productivity in the microfinance sector. It recommends that management integrate workplace improvements and wellbeing initiatives into organizational policy to sustain high performance.
