This study assessed Total Productivity Maintenance (TPM) and Performance of selected Plastic Manufacturing Companies in Anambra state. The specific objective of the study is to ascertain whether Maintenance Training of Operators is the only variable that affects the Machine Availability of the selected Plastic manufacturing firms in Anambra State.  Correlation Survey Research Design was employed and data were analysed using Pearson’s Product Moment Correlation Coefficient. The findings from the test of hypothesis revealed that Maintenance training has positive effect on Performance of selected Plastic Manufacturing Companies in Anambra state. This implies that Maintenance training enhances the performance of the organization. The study recommended organisations should embrace Maintenance training as it will impact on the machine life and reduce breakdown and that there is need to be a radical change in the maintenance culture of the firms from a routine maintenance approach by the engineering department to a daily maintenance approach by all trained operators.

KEYWORDS: Total Productivity Maintenance, performance, selected Plastic Manufacturing Companies in Anambra State, Hypothesis revealed
