| dc.description.abstract | Most companies today realise the importance of having a motivated workforce as it enables
them to perform better at work and in the long-term, helps to boost growth of the
organisation. The companies therefore strive to provide better working environments,
employment contract terms, and welfare provisions as well as providing opportunities for
employees to grow and nurture their talents. All this is done to attract and retain the best
employees in the market. This research therefore seeks to answer the question: what is the
effect of leasing out employees of Bamburi Cement Limited Kenya to partner organizations
