  This study attempted to analyze whether there is a relationship between the
performance of drivers and the number of overtime hours worked by them. The
number of overtime hours worked by the drivers in the pool for the years 2017
and 2018 were extracted from the overtime registers and feedback received on
the performance of drivers from staff members who frequently traveled in the
University vehicles were used for this study. The overall performance of a
driver was decided by taking the aggregate of marks received by him for the
traits: skillfulness, patience, responsibility, customer service and care for
the vehicle. The type of vehicle the driver is assigned for is also taken into
account in the analysis of this study. The study revealed that there is no
significant relationship between the performance of the drivers and the number
of overtime hours worked by them but the type of vehicle and the condition of
the vehicle affects attracting long journeys to them which enable them to earn
more overtime hours.
