ABSTRACT Job satisfaction among police personnel is an important aspect because it is associated with the effective performance of duties in a work environment characterized by high demands, pressure, and operational risks. Within this context, organizational commitment is regarded as a psychological factor that may shape personnel’s positive evaluation of their work. This study examined the effect of organizational commitment on the job satisfaction of investigators and assistant investigators of the Narcotics Investigation Unit within the jurisdiction of the South Kalimantan Regional Police. A quantitative approach with a correlational design was employed, involving 91 personnel selected through total sampling. Data were collected using organizational commitment and job satisfaction scales based on a Likert format and were analyzed using simple linear regression with JASP version 0.96.0. The analysis produced a correlation coefficient of R = 0.829 and a coefficient of determination of R² = 0.688. The regression coefficient test yielded t = 14.00 with p < 0.001, while the regression coefficient of 1.001 indicated a positive direction of association. These findings confirm that higher organizational commitment is associated with greater job satisfaction among police personnel. Therefore, strengthening personnel’s attachment to the organization may serve as a strategic consideration in human resource management within police units characterized by high-risk operational responsibilities. ABSTRAK Kepuasan kerja personel kepolisian menjadi salah satu aspek penting karena berkaitan dengan keberlangsungan pelaksanaan tugas dalam lingkungan kerja yang memiliki tuntutan, tekanan, dan risiko operasional. Dalam konteks tersebut, komitmen organisasi dipandang sebagai faktor psikologis yang berpotensi membentuk penilaian positif personel terhadap pekerjaannya. Penelitian ini berfokus pada pengujian pengaruh komitmen organisasi terhadap kepuasan kerja penyidik dan penyidik pembantu Reserse Narkoba di wilayah hukum Polda Kalimantan Selatan. Penelitian menggunakan pendekatan kuantitatif dengan desain korelasional dan melibatkan 91 personel melalui teknik total sampling. Data diperoleh menggunakan skala komitmen organisasi dan skala kepuasan kerja berbentuk Likert, kemudian dianalisis melalui regresi linear sederhana dengan bantuan perangkat lunak JASP versi 0.96.0. Analisis menghasilkan koefisien korelasi sebesar R = 0,829 dan koefisien determinasi sebesar R² = 0,688. Pengujian koefisien regresi menunjukkan nilai t = 14,00 dengan p < 0,001, sedangkan koefisien regresi sebesar 1,001 menunjukkan arah hubungan positif. Temuan tersebut menegaskan bahwa peningkatan komitmen organisasi berkaitan dengan meningkatnya kepuasan kerja personel. Dengan demikian, penguatan keterikatan personel terhadap organisasi dapat dipertimbangkan sebagai bagian dari strategi pengelolaan sumber daya manusia pada satuan kepolisian dengan karakteristik tugas berisiko tinggi.
