Abstract

This study investigated due process and organisational governance in civil service commission, Delta State, Nigeria. The study employed descriptive survey design and variables: transparency, fairness and consistency were used as the proxies of due process. Sample sizes of two hundred and seventeen (217) copies of questionnaires were administered to employees in selected civil service commission and data obtained were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistical techniques. Findings revealed that transparency, fairness and consistency significantly influence organizational governance. Hence, the study concludes that due process is a legal requirement for civil service commission to be able to become transparent, fair and consistent in their undertakings. The implication of the finding is that it would make stakeholders in the civil service commission to embrace diversity of perspective, accountability, effectiveness, equity, respect, justice and trust. On the basis of the findings, the study recommends the need for stakeholders to be transparent, fair and consistent in their responsibilities.
