The paper examines the Influence of Job Support on the relationship between Job Satisfaction and Job Performance. Using a stratified random sample, 327 employees were selected from some public organizations in northwestern Nigeria. A Questionnaire was used to obtain data, and PLS-SEM was employed to analyze the data. Four hypotheses were framed and tested statistically. The findings show that a positive relationship exists between Job Satisfaction and Job performance, between Job support and Job Performance. Similarly, the paper reveals that Job Support is a predictor of Job performance. Furthermore, it shows that the relationship between Job satisfaction and Job performance can be explained through the link of Job Support. This result has implications for administrators and policymakers to ensure that Job Support is provided for workers as this not only leads to workers' commitment it also enhances their performance.
