Data collated from the annual report of select publicly quoted companies in Nigeria shows Nigerian companies generated a revenue per employee of N63 million in 2016 compared to N51 million generated in 2015.

The Revenue per Employee is basically the total revenues generated by a company divided by the number of employees it has. It is a term used to measure the productivity of the employees of an organisation as well as how much they help contribute towards generating revenues for that company.

Revenue per employee is often preferred to profits because is unaffected by management and board decisions as per its cost of capital, how it allocates resources, efficiency at managing cost etc. all of which affects profitability. Revenue per employee is also viewed from one industry to another, rather than inter company. It is always meaningful to compare a company with another within its industry.

As depicted in the chart above, Oando and all the other oil and gas firms top, make up the first 6 because of high volume nature of oil and gas industries.
