<![CDATA[This study aims to analyze and prove the effect of Wage Level and Overtime Incentives, both partially and simultaneously, on the Job Satisfaction of operational employees at PT Pertamina Patra Niaga Sumbagut Regional (Integrated Terminal Medan Group). The background of this study is rooted in the high-risk nature of field operations, demanding 24/7 shift schedules, and their impact on employee job satisfaction. This study utilized a quantitative approach with a causal associative method. The population consisted of all operational employees at Integrated Terminal Medan Group. A saturated sampling technique was employed, yielding a total sample of 82 respondents. Data were collected using structured questionnaires with a Likert scale. Data analysis techniques included validity and reliability tests, classical assumption tests, multiple linear regression analysis, and hypothesis testing via t-test, F-test, and Coefficient of Determination (Adjusted R²) The results showed that Wage Level partially has a positive and significant effect on operational employees' Job Satisfaction (tcount= 4.120 ttable= 1.9904; sig. = 0.000 0.05) with a regression coefficient of 0.385. Overtime Incentives partially have a positive and significant effect on operational employees' Job Satisfaction (tcount = 5.344 ttable= 1.9904 ; sig. = 0.000 0.05) with a regression coefficient of 0.462, indicating a slightly more dominant impact than basic wages. Furthermore, Wage Level and Overtime Incentives simultaneously have a significant effect on operational employees' Job Satisfaction (Fcount = 48.650 Ftable = 3.11 ; sig. = 0.000 0.05). The Adjusted R Square value of 0.541 indicates that 54.1% of the variability in Job Satisfaction can be explained by Wage Level and Overtime Incentives, while the remaining 45.9% is influenced by other factors outside the research model.]]>
