Language policy and practice emphasises the development of the creative potential of individuals. This study examines the implementation of language policy in Cameroon economic spheres. A descriptive survey was used to portray the characteristics of behaviour, opinions, abilities, beliefs, and knowledge of individuals. The Triangulation method was employed with the objective to increase confidence in the findings. The target population comprised 100 workers from taxation, commerce and council. The stratified random sampling technique was used with focus group interview, observation and questionnaire. Results revealed that language policies in Cameroon are inefficient, resulting to a negative attitude on its users. The study recommends that stakeholders, policy planners and other actors should put an appropriate language policy in place to foster social cohesion and the growth of language use.
