Using primary data from 153Functional Officials, this study found that Compensation and Organizational Commitment have a significant direct effect on Work Effectiveness, on the other hand Job Placement is proven to have an insignificant effect on Work Effectiveness, in addition Compensation, Job Placement and Organizational Commitment have a significant effect on Job Satisfaction.
