Abstract

This study aims to analyze the influence of Employee Engagement and the Merit System on improving the performance of Civil Servants (ASN), with Competency Development as a mediating variable, at the National Unity and Political Agency in North Kalimantan Province. The research employs a quantitative approach using Partial Least Square-Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) for analysis. Data were collected through questionnaires distributed to 60 respondents selected using purposive sampling. The findings indicate that employee engagement and the merit system do not have a direct significant impact on improving ASN performance. However, both variables exert an indirect significant influence through competency development. Competency development itself has a direct and significant effect on performance improvement, making it a key factor in enhancing the capacity and productivity of civil servants. Employee engagement positively contributes to competency development, indicating that employee involvement plays a crucial role in encouraging active participation in training and development programs. Additionally, the merit system also positively affects competency development, suggesting that implementing a fair and performance-based system can motivate employees to enhance their skills
