This study examined the influence of home factors on academic staff job performance at the University of Lagos. In carrying out the study, five research questions and null hypotheses each were postulated to guide the study. The descriptive research design was used for the study. A modified version of instrument used by other researchers was used to assess the respondents’ opinions. Data collected from 100 respondents were analyzed using mean and Chi-square statistical tool, while the hypotheses were tested at 0.05 level of significance. The results of the analysis show that there is a significant relationship between marital stability, family income, health status and home size on the job performance of University of Lagos academic staff. It is concluded that marital stability affects the job performance of University of Lagos academic staff; family income and financial status affect the job performance of University of Lagos academic staff; health status of family members and also that of academic staff can affect their job performanceand the larger the home size is the higher the pressure on the income of University of Lagos academic staff which will also tell on their performance. It is recommended that academic staff should be given room for counseling that will cater for emotional wellbeing of university academic staff and adequate financial reward should be provided for University of Lagos academic staff so that they can perform their job adequately. It is suggested that a study be carried out on the influence of motivational strategies on job performance and commitment of academic staff of University of Lagos.
