Abstract

Research on employee performance is crucial in efforts to improve organizational effectiveness, particularly in government agencies. Therefore, this study aims to analyze the influence of training and work discipline on employee performance at the Cirebon Regency Human Resources Development Agency (BKPSDM). This study uses a quantitative approach with an associative research type that aims to examine the relationship and influence between the variables studied. Research data were collected through distributing questionnaires to 82 respondents who were all employees of the Cirebon Regency Human Resources Development Agency (BKPSDM) using a saturated sampling technique. The data obtained were then analyzed using multiple linear regression analysis with the assistance of SPSS software. The results of the study indicate that training has a positive and significant influence on employee performance, indicating that the implementation of structured and appropriate training can improve employee competence and work effectiveness. In addition, work discipline is also proven to have a positive and significant influence on employee performance, indicating that compliance with regulations, punctuality, and responsibility in work play an important role in improving performance. Simultaneously, the variables of training and work discipline have a significant influence on employee performance with a coefficient of determination of 32%, while the rest is influenced by other variables outside this study. The findings of this study confirm that improving the quality of training programs balanced with the implementation of consistent work discipline can be an important strategy in improving employee performance within the BKPSDM of Cirebon Regency.
