The study investigated the relationship between ethical culture and employee productivity in the Rivers State Civil Service. Also, the moderating effect of intention to stay on the relationship between the variables was examined. A sample of 321 was determined using Krejcie and Morgan sample size table from a population of 1905 Civil Servants from five top ministries in the Rivers State Civil Service. Data for the study was obtained through the utilization of a self-administered and structured questionnaire. The Spearman’s Rank Order Correlation Coefficient was used in analyzing the data with the aid of the Statistical Package for Social Sciences version 21. The results indicated moderate and positive correlations among the dimensions of ethical culture and employee productivity. Also, employee’s intention to stay slightly moderated the relationship between the two variables. However, the moderating role was not significant enough to reject the null hypothesis. This means that positive ethical culture enhances employee productivity in the Civil Service and hence should be encouraged.

AbstractThe focus of this article is on the coordination of civil-service training in a decentralized civil-service system. The Estonian case is studied. The article investigates network-based coordination, analyzes the power sources of the central coordinator and discusses the opportunities and limitations of creating coherence through network-type cooperation. The article concludes that the key power sources for the central coordinator are financial, human and technical resources paired with knowledge, leadership and commitment. The case study shows that, in a decentralized civil service system, a common understanding on training and development can be fostered by intense collaboration through networks.
