Purpose\udLiterature indicates that monetary reward or compensation impacts on the level of attraction, motivation, job satisfaction and retention of employees. The elements of compensation include salary, bonuses (allowances), gratuity and pension. The study investigated how these four elements of compensation specifically influence the attraction, motivation, job satisfaction, and retention of public sector construction employees of Jigawa State of Nigeria to inform how their employer can raise the current levels of satisfaction and retention of employees.\ud\udDesign/methodology/approach\udThe Positivist paradigm guided the empirical research where a questionnaire was developed, pilot-tested and administered to 265 people using stratified random sampling. A total of 260 questionnaires were collected, representing a response rate of 98%. The data obtained was analysed using both descriptive statistics and Structural Equation Modelling.\ud\udFindings\udThe results established that construction employees in Jigawa State’s public sector were motivated by allowances and gratuity, attracted to the job by salary, pension and gratuity, and remained in their jobs through the influences of gratuity and pension. Gratuity played a major role as it impacted on all the 4 variables studied.\ud\udPractical implications\udThese findings are applicable to Jigawa State of Nigeria, but can be extrapolated to other public sector construction employees in the whole country. The findings could also be generalized in other States where the pay scales are different within the ministries.\ud\udOriginality/value\udThe impacts of 4 elements of monetary rewards on 4 employees’ variables were studied.
