ABSTRACT

Organizational politics play a large role in how most organizations function and develop. Human beings are political animals in nature hence making difficult to prevent politics at the work place. Organizational politics have so many influences on the affairs and behavior of employees in an organization and is the pursuit of individual agendas and self-interest in an organization without regard to their effect on the organizations efforts to achieve its goals. It is an undisputable fact that over the years, organizations have battled with organizational politics and are still putting in all possible efforts to mitigate this problem so as not to affect the achievement of organizational goals and objectives. This desk reviewed paper examines the effect of organizational politics on employees performance at the workplace in the context of pay, promotion, power and equity.
