Impact Of Computer Technology On Employment And Its Effect In Industries

 

Abstract

 

The world over continues to grow in population, size and complication Technology. It becomes sector on which the bulging population depends in for knowledge also grows.

 

Be it as it may, the Nigerian situation is similar that we, for the state of advantages associated with technological growth have started computerizing most diligence and educational operation in our advanced institutions of literacy and business associations big and small. Two of similar associations are Banks and Guinness Nigeria Brewery, which were overed for the impact of computer technology on employment and its effect in diligence.

 

The problem, purpose and significance of the study to Banks and Guinness Nigeria Brewery were considered. Review of being literature will also follow. The exploration system made use of different exploration tools were inversely employed to assay data collected. A careful analysis of generated data revealed to the experimenter that the use of computer in Banks and Guinness Nigeria Brewery was set up.

Preface

 

Background Of The Study

 

Days are when utmost computer technology operations and opinions that have to be made on or from them are on first hand base. People are generally fearful and distrustful of change. Change that involve new and complex technologies are especially stressful, particularly to aged and lower educated workers. They’re fearful of losing their jobs, of losing control to machines, and of getting

 

Useless. Systems judges, software masterminds, and system contrivers need to be apprehensive of these fears and need to directly address these fears in an honest and forthright manner, both to enhance the probability that the new system will contain the accumulated knowledge of these workers and will be used and to

 

conceded their individual worth.

 

In addition, a major reason that operation support the use of technology is to ameliorate productivity, which in numerous cases mean the elimination( or radical redesign) of jobs.

 

In such a design, the developer of the new system can feel torn between their obligation to their employer to meet the specifications of the design and their

 

scores to fellowco-workers( and conceivably musketeers) and to the requirements of society. Problems can arise from systems that either will affect in reduced employment or will affect in the need for workers with extensively different skill

 

sets than that held by the present work force.

 

moment, as company and educational operations expand in size and complexity, company directors grow further removed from first hand contact with business scenes. They’re to calculate decreasingly on alternate hand information about what’s passing at the colorful stages of business operations, vis à- vis exploration and development, product, marketing and consumption of goods and services. Since opinions that have to be made by directors are of profound consequences and have to be grounded on largely fractured and generally tenuous information, also it’s of great significance that similar alternate- hand information is from veritably accurate and dependable sources.

 

According toA.S. Fapohunda( 1963), to remedy these accurate information difficulties in, sears began establishing their twenty – two indigenous computer centres covering the entire United States of America. originally, the indigenous computer systems reused guests ’ credit accounts and general account data.

 

latterly, retailing and force information from system were established to give information that the business account world and business operations are also busy expanding their technological and artificial bases by breaking into new grounds and perfecting in being bones through the use of computers.

 

With the preface of computer to numerous business operations, those business areas that involve repeated tasks which are frequently monotonous and fallible to mortal crimes( cash, force control, payroll andetc.) are decreasingly being simplified directly by combining the cost, effectiveness, simplicity of use, effectiveness, trustability and delicacy of the computer to gain, assay and interpret data information for effective business opinions. Nigerian business associations begin to grow in size, business operations and processes come decreasingly complex, and hence computers are being fleetly introduced to manage with the inviting demands of business and growth. Though the preface of computer too numerous angles of business operations is a welcome idea, its use is farther intertwined on counting system and as similar associations need to strike a balance between account areas to be manually operated so as to control or limit the imminence associated with severance.

 

Some of the business operations to which computer has been successfully introduced;-

 

Printing graphic designs of complicated nature.

 

Payroll system.

 

Billing system.

 

prognosticate election result.

 

Mark examination results similar as JAMB and WAEC.

 

Control supplies.

 

prognosticate performance of an aircraft or bullet still.

 

On drawing boards.

 

To calculate the critical path of utmost effective assignment of colors or problems and so on.

 

It thus becomes important that technological changes similar as the preface of computers in associations be precisely estimated so that the earnings in specialized effectiveness aren’t made at the expenditure of the well- being and integration of workers.

 

In the circumstances, also a study of the recrimination of computer preface to counting system of business operations isn’t only timely but obligatory so as to avoid some of the problems associated with technological changes in associations.

 

This exploration is still, limited to the recrimination of computer preface to counting system of business operations using Banks and Guinness Nigeria Brewery as motorized model associations.

 

Literal Background Of Banks And Guinness Nigeria Brewery In Nigeria.

 

The Nigeria banking assiduity which is regulated by the Central Bank of Nigeria, is made up of; deposit plutocrat bank appertained to as marketable banks, development finance institutions, and other fiscal institutions which includes; Micro finance banks, finance companies, office de changes reduction houses and primary mortgage institutions.

 

Basically, the assiduity correspond of 24 marketable banks, 5 reduction houses, 5 development finance institutions, 50 class A office de change, 98 primary mortgaged institutions, 84 finance companies and 914 micro finance institutions.

 

In 1892 Nigeria’s first bank, the African Banking Corporation was established. No banking legislation being until 1952, at which point Nigeria had three foreign banks( the Bank of British West Africa, Barclays Bank, and the British and French Bank) and two indigenous banks( the National Bank of Nigeria and the African Continental Bank) with a collaborative aggregate of forty branches. A 1952 constitution set norms, needed reserve finances, established bank examinations, and handed for backing to indigenous banks. Yet for decades after 1952, the growth of the demand deposits was braked by the Nigeria propensity to prefer cash and to mistrust cheques for debts agreements.

 

In 1952 several Nigerian members of the Federal House of Assembly called for the establishment of a Central Bank to grease the profitable development. Although the stir was defeated, the social administration appointed a bank of England functionary to study the issue. He advised against a Central bank, questioning such a bank’s effectiveness in an uninhabited capital request.

 

The Central Bank of Nigeria, which was statutorily independent of the civil government until 1968, began operations on July 1, 1959. Following a decade of struggle over the relationship between the government and the Central Bank, a 1968military decree granted authority over banking and financial policy to the Federal Executive Council. The part of Central Bank, analogous to that of Central Banks in North America and Western Europe, was to establish the Nigerian currency, control and regulate the banking system, serve as banker to other banks in Nigeria, and carry out the government profitable policy in the financial field.

 

The Guinness Nigeria Brewery is a leading alcoholic and non – alcoholic drinks in the country and has been in actuality for 40 times. It was a attachment of DiagoPlc. of the United Kingdom, was incorporated in 1962 with the structure of a brewery in Ikeja, the heart of Lagos. The brewery was the first outside the Ireland and Great Britain.

 

Guinness stout was first exported to Sierra Leone in 1827, and soon came popular across West Africa. In 1963, Ikeja in Lagos Nigeria was chosen as the first position outside the British Islands to brew the iconic – dark beer. Two times latterly, in 1965, Guinness Nigeria was listed on the Guinness Stock Exchange.

 

Steady growth in requests for Guinness stout and Harp Lager during the coming 30 times urged the structure of three major breweries in Nigeria.

 

In 1974, the company erected a alternate brewery in Benin, where it produced Harp lager beer. This installation was latterly expanded to accommodate a alternate stout brewery, commissioned in 1978.

 

In 1982, a fourth Guinness Brewery was erected in Ogba, Lagos to brew Harp Premium lager beer.

 

This point too, was expanded to include Guinness stout. Several times latterly in 2004, Guinness Nigeria commissioned a new brewery in Aba, Abia State.

 

In 20011, the Benin and Ogba breweries were expanded to further increase capacity and meet growing demand for Guinness Nigeria Products.

 

Statement Of The Problem

 

The significance of labor force in the account section of an association can not be over emphasized especially when one remembers the data that these labor force support the association from its small scale to the large scale stage when it begins to introduce computers to numerous of its heretofore homemade operations.

 

still, an association has the obligation of profit timber and as similar promptitude of information, delicacy, speed, cost effectiveness, becomes high factors to the associations.

 

The problem of this study is thus to find out whether or not the preface of computer technology to counting systems of business operations has reduced the affair of the account sections at Banks and Guinness Nigeria Brewery.

 

Objects Of The Study

 

The purpose of this exploration work is to find out and estimate the recrimination of computer technology on employment and its effect in diligence sections of business operation with particular reference Banks and Guinness Nigeria Brewery as some of the largest associations in Nigeria moment.

 

The study will also essay to find out the effectiveness and effectiveness of similar operation to overall operation capabilities in decision timber.

 

Significance Of The Study

 

This exploration work provides a clear understanding of one of the social counteraccusations of impact in computer technology on employment and its effect in diligence. The information attained will be useful to operation, advisers , unions, professional, scholars, shareholders, investors, institute of advanced literacy, training directors, economist, and the government and so on.

 

The study will also be significant to other associations willing to computerize their technological operations as well as to Banks and Guinness Nigeria Brewery.

 

Compass And Limitation Of Study

 

For the purpose of this study, the impact of computer technology on employment and its effect in diligence system will in compass be limited to Banks and Guinness Nigeria Brewery. Both of them are of Benin Branch. This is because of its numerous motorized operation areas and thus makes for better study.

 

I encountered some problems which stood as limitations to this study. similar problems include, time available for this study, time to induce primary data from similar large associations. Other limitations include the rigor of having to move around Benin- City and also problem of combining course work, exploration work and a full time job among other effects.
