Data collected were analyzed using frequency, descriptive and Pearson Correlation and the test of hypotheses indicates that there is a significant relationship between job stress and organizational productivity; also there is a significant relationship between work safety and organizational productivity. It was therefore, recommended that, machines should be used to load and off load trucks in order to eliminate hazards that risk the health of loaders; hazards should be controlled at the source in order to avoid infecting workers; also psychological disorders should be reduced by avoiding giving challenging jobs that provide learning opportunity or career options to packers and mixers; regular medical checkups so as to determine workers state of health should be done.
