<![CDATA[General Background: Employee productivity is a crucial determinant of organizational success, with incentives serving as a key motivational tool in human resource management. Specific Background: While financial and non-financial incentives are widely recognized as productivity drivers, their effectiveness in small businesses, particularly in the Indonesian context, remains underexplored. Knowledge Gap: Prior research primarily focuses on large enterprises, neglecting how incentive structures function in small-scale industries. Aims: This study examines the impact of financial and non-financial incentives, along with job satisfaction, on employee productivity at UD. Budi Karya Jarorejo, Kerek, Tuban. Results: Multiple linear regression analysis indicates that financial incentives significantly influence productivity (β = 0.4736, p = 0.000), while non-financial incentives have a smaller yet significant effect. Job satisfaction, however, does not show a significant correlation. The model explains 94.7% of productivity variance (R² = 0.947). Novelty: Unlike previous studies, this research focuses on the unique dynamics of small enterprises, emphasizing the role of contextual and managerial factors in incentive effectiveness. Implications: Findings suggest that transparent, performance-based incentive policies can optimize workforce productivity in small businesses, providing insights for managerial decision-making in similar organizational settings.Highlights: Financial incentives are the primary driver of employee productivity, showing a significant positive impact, while non-financial incentives have a smaller but still notable effect. Job satisfaction alone does not significantly influence productivity, highlighting the need for well-structured incentive programs rather than relying solely on workplace satisfaction. Transparent and performance-based incentive policies are crucial, especially in small businesses, to ensure fairness, motivation, and sustained productivity improvements.
