ABSTRACT Employee welfare at the work place has become an important topic for discussion in human resource development literature. There is a teaming effort by both public and private organisations to improve the quality of their work environment. However, literature and a cursory observation of general work environment shows a state of poor work environment which cause constant employee agitations. Consequently, this study sought to investigate the effectiveness of work environment practices and the extent to which they influence job performance of employees. The first objective examined the effectiveness of work enironment practices. The second objective examined the extent work environment practices affect performance of employees at University of Health and Allied Sciences. The study employed a quantitative survey design and a semi-structured questionnaire as a primary data collection instrument. A simple random sampling technique was used to sample 210 junior and senior staff for the study. The study result showed a significant relationship between work environment and performance of employees at the university. The study recommends that staff must ensure a moderated level of noise, avoid tribal and ethical comments in order to ensure cordial work environment. Supervisors, management and leadership of the university must ensure that employee roles are clearly defined, provide them job descriptions and provide feedback on their performance.
