This study adopted a case study descriptive research design. The population was the 431 staff currently working at Kenya Power regional headquarters. Stratified random sampling was done where number of respondents per strata was determined in relation to total population. The study used both primary and secondary data. Primary data was collected by the use of structured questionnaires while secondary data was collected from already existing materials such as company‘s website, company‘s reports and announcements and other external sources such as the media. Regression analysis was used to show the overall relationship between the independent and dependent variables. Correlation analysis was used to show the strength of the association between the each independent variables and dependent variable.
