Support funds generated from internal and external sources to complement government effort do not improve the labour turnover condition. To address these problems, the study assesses the impact of labour turnover on the productivity of academic staff in Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria. In addition, it also evaluates factors responsible for and assesses the perception of academic staff on the significance of labour turnover factors in the University. To achieve the stated objectives, descriptive/survey research method was adopted for the study. The main instruments used to collect relevant data for the study were questionnaires and documentary sources. Questionnaire responses were collected and analyzed. Chi-Square technique was employed to test the three hypotheses formulated for the research. The study found that responses on factors that determine labour turnover, show that remunerations particularly for the academic staff of the University consider or inform their decision to stay in service. It was also revealed that contribution received from internal and external sources have positive relevance to labour turnover.
