From each districts 38 PDOs were selected by simple random sampling to form total sample of 152 respondents’. The results revealed that coefficients of determination (R2) were 0.671 and 0.583 for job perception and job performance, respectively. The results further imply that all the selected eight independent variables put together contributed 67.10 per cent and 58.30 per cent of variation in job perception and job performance of PDOs respectively. In addition, study also reveals that, the constraints in job performance of PDOs shows that, all most 96 per cent of PDOs perceived that they come across with interference of local representatives in performing job activities this coupled with Over workload was the second major constraint as perceived by 83.55 per cent of PDOs.
