Abstract: The study examined the effects of task identity on the performance of employees of the supreme court of Kenya. A cross-sectional survey and a case study were employed. A sample size of one hundred and fifty (150) respondents was selected to participate in the study. The study used both primary and secondary sources of data collection. The study used two factor theory, the job characteristic model and the ERG theory to be able to support the study and show the relationship between the objectives and the study that was conducted in regards to how it affected the employee performance in the judiciary. It was realised that majority of the respondents were in strong agreement that their job was designed in such a way that it had a beginning and an end. This led to the confirmation that task identity affected employee performance in that there were some duties which needed more than one person to fulfil hence everyone had a part to play so that eventually when they all finished their tasks the tasks would all be combined in to one finished product hence marking completion of the task. So everyone had to be at par for their tasks to be completed or else if some completed and others did not then the job would be incomplete. This would affect their performance levels.
