Demographic factors and inclusiveness often inhibit open communication and thereby enhancing overall productivity and satisfaction. The paucity of empirical studies in this area prompts the need to examine the correlation between demographic factors, inclusiveness and its effect on employee performance. The hypothesis for this study is test using Pearson’s Product Moment Correlation Coefficient alongside descriptive statistics of percentage. According to the descriptive statistics, while the university benefits from a well-educated and experienced workforce, improving gender balance, retaining newer staff, and leveraging academic expertise could enhance employee performance and contribute to a more productive university environment. The findings indicate that demographic factors like age and education show slight positive correlations with employee performance, while inclusiveness—through diverse collaboration, leadership commitment, and openness to ideas—moderately enhances job satisfaction, engagement, and discretionary effort, highlighting the role of inclusive practices in boosting performance.
