Abstract
The study examined the influence of integrated personnel payroll information system (IPPIS) on the elimination of ghost workers syndrome in Nigeria Public Service. The study raised four research questions and was guided by the following objectives: to examine the brief history of IPPIS Policy in Nigeria Public Service, to examine the effort of IPPIS towards eradicating ghost workers syndrome in Nigeria Public Service, to examine the challenges of IPPIS in Nigeria Public Service, to proffer strategies and methods that can improve the effort of IPPIS in eradicating ghost workers syndrome in Nigeria Public Service. The study adopted system theory as theoretical framework of analysis and utilised secondary sources of data. The findings revealed that the introduction of IPPIS policy in Nigeria Public Service has helped uncover many ghost workers that have been on the payroll of the Federal Government IPPIS has also broadened employment opportunities, reduced corruption in the public service and reduced personnel costs. The study also revealed that lack of reliable and comprehensive database for the public service, change management issue and institutional resistance are some of the challenges facing IPPIS in Nigeria Public Service. The study therefore recommends that there is need to focus on the training and retraining of IPPIS while incentives should be provided for all IPPIS personnel in order for them not to collaborate or compromise with fraudsters.
