Abstract

Purpose of the study: This study aims to analyze the influence of work discipline and employee performance on the quality of public services at the Department of Environmental Affairs and Waste Management of Ambon City. Public service quality reflects the government’s capacity to fulfill community needs and expectations, particularly in waste management services that directly affect environmental cleanliness, public health, and community satisfaction. Methodology: This research employed a quantitative survey approach involving employees directly engaged in waste management services. Data were collected through structured questionnaires using a five-point Likert scale to measure work discipline, employee performance, and public service quality. Instrument validity and reliability were tested prior to analysis. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and multiple linear regression, supported by classical assumption tests to ensure the reliability of the regression model. Main Findings: The results show that work discipline has a positive and significant effect on public service quality. Employee performance also has a positive and significant effect. Simultaneously, both variables significantly influence service quality with a strong coefficient of determination. Disciplined behavior and optimal performance substantially improve reliability, responsiveness, assurance, empathy, and tangible aspects of public services. Novelty/Originality of this study: This study provides an integrated quantitative analysis of discipline and performance as simultaneous determinants of service quality in the municipal waste management sector, offering empirical evidence to strengthen citizen-oriented local governance.

Abstract

This study examines the influence of leadership style on public service at the Teluk Ambon District Office, Ambon City. The research was motivated by practical service problems at the district level, including uneven implementation of frontliner service procedures, varying employee discipline, and weak coordination among organizational units. A quantitative survey design was applied to test the causal relationship between leadership style and public service quality. Data were collected from 50 respondents consisting of 24 district employees and 26 community service users through structured questionnaires supported by observation, interviews, and documentation. Leadership style was measured through decision-making ability, motivational ability, subordinate control, and emotional control, whereas public service quality was measured using the SERVQUAL dimensions of tangibles, reliability, responsiveness, assurance, and empathy. The data were processed using IBM SPSS with validity, reliability, normality, simple linear regression, t-test, and coefficient of determination procedures. The findings show that all questionnaire items were valid and reliable. The regression model produced a positive coefficient, a standardized beta of 0.906, and an R Square value of 0.820, indicating that leadership style explained 82.0% of the variation in public service quality. The novelty of this study lies in its focus on district-level public service governance in an archipelagic urban context, where leadership is not only administrative but also coordinative and adaptive. The study implies that stronger leadership supervision, staff arrangement, and service discipline are necessary to improve the consistency of public service delivery.
