Abstract

The sort of queuing discipline embraced by a business entity can impact the entity's entire exhibition. Queuing is expected to provide an orderly arrangement whereby goods and services are provided, jobs flow are received, attended to, and dispatched. Many circumstances in life necessitate standing in line or waiting on the queue before receiving service. The study was sort to investigate the impacts of queuing indiscipline, its causes, effects and solution in Nigeria. This study employed Quantitative approach using simple sampling technique. 1100 questionnaires were circulated to youths residing in any of the six (6) geopolitical zones in Nigeria, however only 1065 were correctly filled, returned and analyzed for the study. Descriptive and inferential statistical techniques were adopted for the study. The study found that the causes of queuing indiscipline are the same across the six political zones in Nigeria showing an F (stat = 0.393) and Sig (= 0.854) and that a strong positive correlation (r = 0.562) exist between the causes of queuing indiscipline and its resultant effect. It also found that solutions to queuing indiscipline have a significant impact on the causes of queuing indiscipline in Nigeria. The study therefore concludes that a change in the solutions to queuing indiscipline would significantly result in a measurable improvement in the causes and effects of queuing indiscipline.
