This is with a view to ascertain the importance of government service delivery programmes on industrial organizations in the State. The descriptive survey method was adopted for the study.

Oral interview was used to collect information from Ministries about the activities of the government. The results of the survey reveal that the human capital development programmes provided for workers have impacted on their job performance effectiveness. The computer training has significant effect on innovation (t=7.306, P<0.05) adaptability (t=2.073, P<0.05), staff development (t=4.626, P<0.05). Team building training programme also has significant effect on almost all the factors creativity (t=6.269, P<0.05) strategic leadership (t=5.424,P<0.05), teamwork (t=2.654,P<0.05); Interpersonal training programme has more significant effect on strategic leadership (t=6.621,P<0.05) and teamwork, with more impact on teamwork (Beta=0.658,P<0.05). In addition, Communication skill training equally has significant effect on teamwork (t=7.588, P<0.05), innovation, satisfaction (t=2.520, P<0.05) and finally, Labour-Management related Skill training impact more on creativity (Beta=1.34,P<0.05) and strategic leadership (Beta=1.098,P<0.05) and customer services (Beta=1.832,P<0.05).
