This study analyzes the influence of intrinsic motivation, workload, and work environment on employee job satisfaction at the Harbor Master Authority and Port Office (KSOP). With a quantitative approach, data were collected through questionnaires from 100 employees and analyzed using multiple linear regression in SPSS. The results showed that intrinsic motivation and work environment have a positive and significant effect on job satisfaction, with significance values of 0.012 and 0.000, respectively. In contrast, workload had no significant effect (p > 0.05). The regression model explained 58.9% of the variation in job satisfaction. In conclusion, increasing intrinsic motivation and creating a conducive work environment play an important role in increasing employee job satisfaction. Further studies are recommended to explore other factors and conduct longitudinal research.
