<![CDATA[This study aims to analyze the effects of transformational leadership and the work environment on employee performance in the Training and Job Placement Division (PPTK) of the Department of Industry and Manpower of Surabaya City, both simultaneously and partially. A quantitative approach with a causal research design was employed. The study involved all 36 employees of the PPTK Division using a saturated sampling technique. Primary data were collected through a structured questionnaire using a five-point Likert scale, while secondary data were obtained from organizational documents and relevant literature. The data were analyzed using multiple linear regression with the assistance of SPSS software after passing validity, reliability, and classical assumption tests. The results indicate that transformational leadership and the work environment simultaneously have a positive and significant effect on employee performance (F= 14.158, Sig. = 0.000). Partially, transformational leadership has a positive and significant effect on employee performance (t = 3.967, Sig. = 0.000), and the work environment also has a positive and significant effect on employee performance (t = 4.114, Sig. = 0.000). The coefficient of determination shows that the two independent variables explain 42.9% of the variation in employee performance. These findings imply that strengthening transformational leadership practices and creating a supportive work environment can improve employee performance in public sector organizations, particularly within the PPTK Division of the Department of Industry and Manpower of Surabaya City. Future studies are recommended to include additional variables that may influence employee performance to provide a more comprehensive explanation of employee performance in government institutions.]]>
