The public sector is essentially created by the Nigerian constitution thus defines the rules, the power, the duties, the boundaries and the interrelationships of the separate levels of government and their agencies in the public sector.

Public sector is made up of the federal, state and the local government. Public  sector activities are conducted through ministries, extra-ministries departments, local councils and parastatals.

While the ministries departments, local councils are organized through the civil service rules with civil servants as workers, the parastatals are run either as corporations, authorities,

Boards, councils and limited liability companies in which the government has either full, majority of controlling interest (Ugwoke,R.O. 2005).

The management of people at work is an integral part of the management process.
