Authors

Abstract
The nature of contract of
employment in Nigeria is still embedded in the anachronistic common law
principles, as there is still no guarantee of job security arising from contracts
of employment especially in areas of casual work.
Employment in organized private sectors is a very precarious one because it
does not give any one security of employment since it is characterized as a
contract of personal service, and does not observe the principles of natural
justice. However, in the public sectors, there is a presumption of job security
to the extent of adhering strictly to the laws regulating such employment even
where the conditions of services are not protected. This paper will attempt to
examine the laws regulating job security and casualization in Nigeria. The work
adopted doctrinal method of research and made recommendations towards an
effective regulation in the practice of casualization by the employers.
