The research method used is quantitative with a survey approach. Data were collected through questionnaires distributed to employees and analyzed using the Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) method via the SmartPLS application. The population in this study consisted of 63 individuals, and a total of 63 samples were used (saturated sampling). The results showed that emotional intelligence and the physical work environment have a direct and significant effect on work motivation.
