    In the corporate world, workers are charged with the duty of achieving stated goals. This is a measure of their contribution. It is a measure of efficiency. Inefficient workers incur unnecessary costs on the employers, producing substandard goods and rendering poor services.

The results indicated that personal skill strongly correlates with task workers' efficiency, r (134) = .838, p < 0.05. The results further showed that workplace environment strongly correlates with contextual workers' efficiency, r (134) = .640, p < 0.05.
