Employee performance refers to the ability of employees to achieve organizational goals effectively and efficiently. The results of this study indicate that workload has a positive and significant effect on employee performance, with a Tcount value of 3.146, which is greater than the Ttable value of 2.131, and a significance level of 0.002, which is less than 0.05. This suggests that an optimal workload can enhance employee performance by motivating employees and improving task management. Similarly, organizational culture positively and significantly influences employee performance, with a Tcount value of 2.692 > Ttable 2.131 and a significance level of 0.008 < 0.05. A supportive organizational culture fosters collaboration, communication, and commitment, which in turn improves individual and team performance.
