Transactional Leadership also has a positive and significant effect on Employee Performance. Compensation has a positive and significant effect on Employee Performance, while Occupational Safety and Health has a positive but insignificant effect. These findings indicate that employee engagement, effective leadership, and appropriate compensation play important roles in improving employee performance, whereas the implementation of occupational safety and health tends to improve employee performance but has not shown a statistically significant effect.Conclusion and suggestion: This study concludes that Employee Engagement, Transactional Leadership, and Compensation significantly improve employee performance at PT Cebong Kayuindo, while Occupational Safety and Health has a positive but not statistically significant effect.
