The study examined the gains and pains of Integrated Payroll and
Personnel Information System (IPPIS) Policy implementation in Nigeria. The
paper was qualitative descriptive one. The study found that IPPIS has been able
to mitigate problems associated with salary payment of public servants but the
feat came with some pains or burdens to both public servants and IPPIS
implementers. The study recommends among others that: the IPPIS should
decentralize its activity, get more autonomy to operate effectively and the
need for the remodification and redesigning of the software to accommodate more
organizational flexibility and peculiarity.
