Abstract:

The study evaluated the efficacy of Integrated Payroll and Personnel Information System (IPPIS) in Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC). The study adopted ex-post facto research design. The population of the study was 34,250 NNPC staff in Adamawa State. The sample of 343 was considered. A simple random sampling was adopted. The data collected was analyzed by the use of standard deviation and regression analysis to determine the efficacy of Integrated Payroll and Personnel Information System (IPPIS) in NNPC Adamawa State. The findings revealed that the use of IPPIS prevents ghost workers payments; IPPS helps in paying actual personnel cost monthly/annually and facilitates staff remuneration payment with minimal waste and leakages. The study revealed that the quality of NNPC payroll administration has vastly improved and that IPPIS has reduced the red tape that comes with manual payroll administration. It was recommended that IPPS should be widely be used in NNPC in order to improve the quality of payroll administration and reduce the red tape that comes with manual payroll administration.
