Short working time is any pattern of work schedule that can be used to limit the maximum number of working hours an employee can spend at the workplace. An extended working period can be harmful to employees and therefore there is need to reduce it order to stimulate productivity. There are many positive aspects of short working time which among other things include employee wellbeing and psychological willingness to contribute more to the growth of the firm. This study tries to examine the relationship between short time working and organisational productivity. This study adopted a survey design to generate data from the representative sample size of 640 drawn from a total population of 1200 staff members of some selected companies in Lagos State. Descriptive questionnaires were designed, structured to collect primary sample data. The statistical tests of mean, variance and standard deviation were applied to determine the statistical significance of the study. It was revealed that short time working was significant in boosting employees’ performance and organisational productivity. The study is important because as the population of the state increased and business organisations aspires to remain competitive to take the advantage of the growing market, there is need to realign the work schedule to accommodate people of different work interests.
