The main objective of this study is to examine the effect of broadbading on employees performance of selected hospitals in Lagos State, Nigeria. The specific objectives are to; (1) determine the effect of pay structure on employees' performance; (ii) examine the influence of pay grade system on employees engagement. The study used a cross sectional survey design to obtain the needed information directly from the target respondents which spread across the seven hospitals selected for the study among the few functional government hospitals operating in Lagos State.

Purposive sampling was adopted in selecting hospitals owned and controlled by the federal government. Descriptive statistics were employed. Multiple regression analysis was utilized in this study. Findings shows that there exists a very strong relationship between employees' performance and pay structure (which is predictors or independent variables). It is also clear from the table that the 12 which is the coefficient of determination is 0.556 approximately 56%. And, it shows that the correlation coefficient r is 0.784 (i e, r0.784) which indicate that there exists a very strong relationship between employees' engagement and pay grade system ween pay structure and employee performance. A strategically crafted pay structure, which includes competitive salaries, performance-based incentives, and clear progression pathways, motivates employees to excel in their roles and contributes to enhanced overall performance.
