This study aims to analyze the influence of incentives and physical work environment on employee performance with motivation as a mediating variable at the Denpasar City Cultural Office. This study uses a quantitative approach with a survey method. The research population was all employees of the Denpasar Cultural Office totaling 54 people, all of whom were sampled using saturated sampling techniques. Data were collected through a questionnaire with a Likert scale and analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling based on Partial Least Square (SEM-PLS). The results of the study showed that incentives had a positive and significant effect on employee performance, while the physical work environment did not have a significant effect on employee performance. In addition, motivation has a positive and significant effect on employee performance. Mediation testing showed that motivation was able to mediate the influence of incentives on employee performance, but was unable to mediate the influence of the physical work environment on employee performance. These findings indicate that improving employee performance is more effective through providing the right incentives and increasing work motivation compared to improving the physical work environment alone.

MSMEs can play a significant role in bolstering a community's economy, with their growth highly dependent on workforce performance. Effective leadership and appropriate incentives significantly enhance employee productivity, motivation, and engagement. The purpose of this study is to ascertain how employee performance in MSMEs in the Bantar Gebang market is impacted by knowledge-oriented leadership and incentives. 135 employees of MSMEs in the Bantar Gebang market were given paper questionnaires to complete in order to gather data. Validity and reliability tests were performed using SPSS version 27 for data analysis in this study. CFA with KMO, Anti-Image, and Factor Loading was used for the validity test; Kolmogrov-Smirnov was used for the normalcy test; multiple linear regression and t-tests were used for hypothesis testing. The findings supported hypothesis 1 by demonstrating that knowledge-oriented leadership significantly and favorably affected worker performance. Additionally, the data supported hypothesis 2 by demonstrating that rewards significantly and favorably impacted employee performance. Employees need to be encouraged by MSMEs leaders to expand their knowledge and abilities through a variety of experiences. MSMEs must put in place extra incentive programs to show their staff how much they are valued. MSMEs owners are required to evaluate and recognize staff members who exhibit strong initiative and go above and beyond the call of duty.

This study aims to analyze the influence of work discipline, work motivation, and incentive provision on employee performance in the production department of PT Wonojati Wijoyo. The study employed an associative quantitative approach, with 65 respondents selected using a purposive sampling technique. Data were collected through a five-point Likert-scale questionnaire that passed validity and reliability tests. The data were analyzed using multiple linear regression with SPSS version 29, including classical assumption tests, t-test, F-test, and the coefficient of determination (R²). The results show that work discipline has a positive and significant effect on employee performance, while work motivation and incentive provision have no significant effect. However, simultaneously, the three variables significantly affect employee performance, with a coefficient of determination of 77.9%, indicating that the remaining 22.1% is influenced by other factors not included in the model. These findings highlight the importance of implementing human resource management policies that balance discipline, reward systems, and motivation programs to improve employee performance sustainably.

This study aims to analyze the reward system in improving the performance of educators at State Islamic Senior High Schools (Madrasah Aliyah) in Jambi Province. The research focuses on the reward mechanism, its implementation, and the factors that determine its effectiveness in improving educator performance. This study uses a descriptive qualitative approach with data collection techniques through observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation. The research locations include three madrasas: MAN 1 Tanjung Jabung Barat, MAN 1 Kota Jambi, and MAN 1 Merangin. The results show that the implemented reward system includes financial rewards (such as incentives and allowances) and non-financial rewards (such as certificates, training, and job promotions). Rewards have been shown to play an important role in improving educator motivation, discipline, loyalty, and performance. However, the implementation of the reward system has not been optimal due to several obstacles, such as budget constraints, lack of transparency in assessments, and the incompatibility of the types of rewards with the needs of educators. On the other hand, madrasas that implement the reward system appropriately and fairly show an increase in the quality of educator work, marked by increased participation, work performance, and professional responsibility. This study concludes that an effective reward system is one that has clear criteria, is transparent, and responsive to the needs of educators. Recommendations are directed to madrasah principals and the Ministry of Religious Affairs to build a strong culture of appreciation and allocate an adequate reward budget to improve the quality of education in madrasahs.

This qualitative research investigates the influence of work motivation and work environment on employee performance within PT Yusen Logistic Indonesia's warehouse division. Through comprehensive interviews with maritime professionals, educators, and industry experts, this study addresses critical gaps in understanding workforce dynamics in maritime logistics operations. The research employed thematic analysis of semi-structured interviews with 45 participants across three stakeholder groups: operational staff, maritime educators, and industry professionals. Findings reveal that intrinsic motivation factors, particularly career development opportunities and safety recognition, demonstrate stronger correlation with sustained performance than monetary incentives. Work environment quality, including infrastructure adequacy and shift management, serves as a significant moderator affecting motivation–performance relationships. In addition, this research highlights that supportive leadership and open communication further strengthen employee engagement and commitment in high-pressure warehouse operations. Respondents consistently emphasized the importance of aligning organizational goals with individual career aspirations, particularly in a sector where safety and efficiency are paramount. The study also identifies that investment in ergonomic facilities, digital monitoring systems, and structured training programs reduces fatigue and error rates, thus promoting both productivity and safety compliance. The implications extend beyond company-level management to broader maritime education and policy-making. The integration of motivational strategies into vocational curricula can better prepare graduates for the realities of port and logistics operations. Moreover, the findings contribute to developing sustainable logistics practices that balance efficiency, employee well-being, and long-term organizational competitiveness. Overall, the research provides evidence-based recommendations for maritime vocational training programs, human resource management, and port operations strategies in Indonesia’s rapidly growing logistics sector.

 Employee performance is one of the important elements that determine the success of an organization, especially in companies engaged in public services such as PT. PLN (Persero).

PLN (Persero) Rayon Kuta, with the aim of providing strategic recommendations for management in formulating more optimal human resource management policies. The research method used is a quantitative approach with a survey technique, where data were collected by distributing questionnaires to 40 employees who were respondents. Data analysis was carried out using a regression test to determine the effect of each variable on employee performance. The results of the study revealed that incentives and motivation have a positive and significant effect on improving performance. Of the two variables, incentives provide a more dominant contribution to employee performance with a regression coefficient value of β = 0.576, while motivation provides a lower influence with a value of β = 0.241. In addition, the F-count value of 24.641 indicates a strong simultaneous influence of incentives and motivation on employee performance. These findings confirm that a well-designed incentive system, coupled with efforts to increase work motivation, can be an effective strategy for boosting employee productivity and performance. Therefore, management needs to prioritize fair, transparent, and target-oriented incentive policies, while also addressing intrinsic motivation to maintain sustainable performance.

This study aims to determine the influence of motivation on employee performance at the Regional Disaster Management Agency (BPBD) Office of Sidenreng Rappang Regency. Motivation is seen as one of the fundamental factors in human resource development because it can encourage increased work morale, effectiveness, and efficiency in carrying out employee duties and responsibilities. Highly motivated employees will be encouraged to work more disciplined, creative, and productive, so that they can make a positive contribution to the achievement of organizational goals, especially in public service and disaster management.nThis study uses a quantitative approach with a survey method.

This consideration is made because the population is relatively small so that it can be reached as a whole. The research data was collected using a questionnaire compiled based on indicators of work motivation and employee performance, then analyzed using a simple regression test to determine the relationship and influence between variables.nThe results showed that the calculated t value of 2.167 was greater than the t table of 2.048 at a significance level of 5%. This proves that there is a positive and significant influence between motivation on employee performance. Motivation contributes 15.7% to performance improvement, while the rest is influenced by other factors such as work discipline, work environment, competence, and leadership. Nevertheless, these findings emphasize that motivation continues to play an important role as the main driver of employee performance.nThus, increasing motivation through the provision of awards, incentives, and continuous coaching can be an important strategy in strengthening the quality of performance of BPBD employees in Sidenreng Rappang Regency.

This study is a qualitative research employing a case study approach to explore the leadership management of a madrasah principal in improving teacher performance. The data analysis technique used consists of four main steps: data collection, data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions. To ensure the validity and reliability of the findings, source triangulation was applied. The research findings reveal that the madrasah principal plays a multifunctional role encompassing that of a manager, supervisor, and motivator, all of which are central to the effective management of the institution. The principal’s leadership is characterized by a strong orientation toward the achievement of the institutional vision, optimal resource management, and the establishment of a conducive and productive learning environment. Several strategic efforts have been implemented to enhance teacher performance, including the enforcement of work discipline, organizing continuous professional development through teacher training, offering rewards and incentives for achievements, cultivating positive attitudes and mental resilience among staff, and providing financial support to facilitate teaching activities. These strategies reflect a proactive and visionary leadership model that emphasizes communication, motivation, and collaboration. The effectiveness of this leadership approach is evidenced by the significant improvement in teacher performance, contributing to the overall enhancement of educational quality within the madrasah. This study concludes that leadership which is visionary, communicative, and supportive is essential in fostering an environment that promotes teacher development and institutional progress. The results of this research provide valuable insights for education stakeholders, particularly in Islamic educational institutions, on how strategic leadership practices can drive meaningful change and improve educational outcomes. This study also highlights the importance of ongoing support, recognition, and empowerment of teachers as key elements in building a high-performing and motivated teaching workforce.

Employee performance is a critical determinant of service quality and operational success in hospitals. High-performing employees contribute directly to patient satisfaction, service efficiency, and overall institutional reputation. This study investigates the influence of intrinsic and extrinsic motivation on the performance of employees at Petrokimia Gresik Hospital, aiming to provide empirical evidence to guide strategic human resource management in healthcare settings. A quantitative research design was employed, with data collected using structured questionnaires. The respondents consisted of 85 permanent employees selected through simple random sampling, ensuring that the sample fairly represented the hospital's workforce. The questionnaire was designed to measure aspects of both intrinsic motivation (such as self-fulfillment, recognition, and meaningful work) and extrinsic motivation (such as salary, benefits, and job security), along with indicators of employee performance. Data were analyzed using multiple linear regression analysis to examine the individual and joint effects of the motivational variables on performance. The results revealed that both intrinsic motivation (β = 0.532, p < 0.05) and extrinsic motivation (β = 0.487, p < 0.05) had a statistically significant and positive impact on employee performance. The model showed that the combination of these two factors accounted for 68.2% of the variation in employee performance (R² = 0.682), indicating a strong explanatory power. These findings underscore the importance of a balanced motivational strategy in hospital management. Relying solely on financial incentives is insufficient; efforts must also be made to cultivate a positive and fulfilling work environment. Therefore, hospital administrators are encouraged to design integrated motivation programs that address both intrinsic and extrinsic factors to enhance employee engagement, productivity, and ultimately, the quality of healthcare services provided.

Asy-Syifa Regional General Hospital in West Sumbawa Regency, as a public health service institution, should have employees who are enthusiastic and motivated to work effectively and efficiently. The salaries and wages given need to be adjusted to the profession, education, and length of service of employees so that they are able to demonstrate high productivity in order to achieve the mission and goals that have been set. However, there are problems at Asy-Syifa Hospital related to the inconsistency in determining employee salaries, incentives, and work motivation. This happens because the salary given is not balanced with the expertise, education, or skills possessed by employees, thus reducing their response and interest in the tasks given by their superiors. The suboptimality in providing incentives and work motivation can be seen from the lack of employee enthusiasm in working, as well as low interest and positive attitudes towards work due to inappropriate rewards, which ultimately have an impact on suboptimal performance. This study aims to determine the effect of Salary, Incentives, and Work Motivation on Employee Performance. The focus of the study was Non-Permanent Employees at Asy-Syifa Hospital, West Sumbawa Regency, with 100 respondents as a sample taken using the Slovin formula. The data were analyzed using multiple linear regression with SPSS Version 27. The results of the study showed that Salary, Incentives, and Work Motivation partially and simultaneously had a significant effect on Employee Performance at Asy-Syifa Hospital, West Sumbawa Regency.  

This study aims to analyze the influence of motivation, incentives, and work discipline on employee performance in the Finance Department of Bandung Adventist Hospital. The method used is multiple linear regression analysis to determine the relationship between independent variables (motivation, incentives, and work discipline) and the dependent variable (employee performance). The analysis results indicate that motivation has a significant and positive effect on employee performance, with a regression coefficient of 0.326 and a significance level of 0.009, supporting the hypothesis that motivation plays an important role in enhancing employee productivity and commitment. Conversely, the incentive and work discipline variables show a negative and non-significant effect on performance, with coefficients of -0.162 and -0.208, respectively. This suggests that the current incentive and work discipline practices are not fully effective or do not meet employee expectations. Simultaneously, the three independent variables have a significant effect on employee performance, with the F-test showing a significance level of 0.009. This study recommends that management prioritize motivation improvement through training programs, rewards, and the development of a supportive work environment. Additionally, it is essential to evaluate the incentive system and adopt a more flexible disciplinary approach to align with employee needs and expectations.

Salary reform as a structural improvement in a company’s compensation system is a widely applied strategy to enhance employee motivation and performance. Compensation policies that are responsive to employee needs are expected to create a work environment that supports productivity, where intrinsic motivation can be strengthened through fair and proportional rewards. This study aims to explore the extent of the influence of salary reform on improving employee motivation and performance within organizations by using a literature review method. Based on analyses of previous studies, it was found that salary reform not only plays a significant role in fostering employees' intrinsic motivation but also impacts the overall productivity of the organization. Reforms that include salary structure adjustments, performance-based incentives, and increased transparency in compensation management have proven effective in reducing disparities, enhancing loyalty, and improving workplace climate. These findings strongly imply that management should continuously develop adaptive compensation policies focused on employee needs and well-being, with the aim of optimally contributing to achieving the company’s strategic goals and enhancing organizational competitiveness.
