This paper assessed the contribution of micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) on employment generation in Kwara State, Nigeria. To gather information, survey research design method was used in this study. The population includes owners, managers and person in charge human resource/administration in the selected MSMEs which were deliberately chosen. A Total of 76 Questionnaires was distributed and 72 responses of them were usable for data analysis. Data were analyzed using descriptive form of tables while hypotheses were tested for with a parametric t-test with the aid of Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS). The study found that the MSMEs in Kwara State are not well positioned to generate the required level of employment for the people due to poor level of MSMEs growth and inconsistent government policies. It was therefore recommended that there is the need for all the stakeholders (government, business owners/managers, individuals, etc.) in Kwara State to be committed to the need to reposition the MSMEs sector. | |
