Abstract

Employee work productivity is one of the important factors in supporting the success of the company. One of the factors suspected to influence work productivity is the work environment, both from physical and non-physical aspects. This study aims to analyze the influence of the work environment on employee work productivity at Krebet Baru Sugar Factory. The study used a quantitative approach with a descriptive method. The study population was approximately 2,000 employees, while a sample of 50 respondents was determined using the Yamane formula with a simple random sampling technique. Data collection was carried out through a Likert-scale questionnaire, then analyzed using validity tests, reliability tests, classical assumption tests, simple linear regression analysis, t-tests, and coefficients of determination (R²) using SPSS software. The results showed that the work environment had a positive and significant effect on employee work productivity. The regression equation obtained was Y = 13.048 + 0.272X, with a t-value of 3.503 and a significance value of 0.001 (<0.05), so the research hypothesis was accepted. The coefficient of determination (R²) of 0.204 indicates that the work environment contributes 20.4% to employee productivity, while 79.6% is influenced by factors outside the study. This finding suggests that the better the work environment, both physical and non-physical, the higher employee productivity. Therefore, companies need to continuously improve the quality of the work environment to support optimal productivity.
