<![CDATA[This research seeks to explore the influence of work-life balance and compensation on employee performance, incorporating job stress as a mediating factor. The case study was carried out at PT Pelabuhan Indonesia II, Bengkulu Branch. The sample consisted of employees selected through random sampling, and the data were analyzed using (SEM). The findings indicate that both work-life balance and compensation positively and significantly enhance employee performance, both directly and indirectly via the mediating role of job stress. Moreover, these two factors help to lower job stress, while job stress itself exerts a negative impact on performance. Consequently, job stress operates as a partial mediator that weakens the positive contribution of work-life balance and compensation to performance. These results highlight that maintaining a healthy work-life balance and providing fair compensation are crucial for boosting productivity, while effective management of job stress is essential for sustaining optimal employee outcomes.]]>
