The study was conducted in March 2010 at Bank of Khyber Main Head office, Peshawar with an object to assess competency based job performance. A stratified random sample of 60 employees from a total of 200 employees was taken for this study. Out of which 9 respondents were from top level, 36 from middle level and 15 respondents were from lower level of management. Competency of the respondents was judged in term of knowledge, skill and attitude using Likert scale. Further, a chi-square test was used to assess the association between competency (knowledge, skill, and attitude), job analysis and performance. The estimated results showed that performance and job satisfaction were strongly associated. Similarly knowledge (shared and priorities) and skill (training and willingness) were strongly associated with job performance. However, attitude (tolerated and productive) of the respondent were insignificantly associated with job performance. Finally, it is recommended that organization may focus on knowledge, skill and particularly on attitude by arranging training to improve performance level of the respondents.
