The study examines the influence of staff attitude on the job performance of record officers in North-Central Nigeria. The study was guided by research objectives, one research question, and one research hypothesis. A descriptive correlation survey design was adopted, targeting a population of 226 respondents. A questionnaire was used as an instrument of data collection; 226 questionnaires were administered, while 211 were completed and found usable, representing a 93% response rate. Stratified sampling techniques were used. Descriptive statistics—percentage, means, and standard deviation—were used in data analysis, while the Pearson Product-Moment Correlation Coefficient (PPMC) was used to determine the relationship between the variables. The study revealed that staff attitude has an impact on the job performance of record officers in local government councils in North-central Nigeria, with an average weighted mean of 3.04. The study recommended that the government should improve the well-being of its staff to make them perform effectively and that the management of the local government should find a way to create an enabling workplace environment for records officers to motivate them to perform.
