Abstract

Employee performance is a strategic factor in supporting the effectiveness of government tasks, especially in vertical agencies of the Ministry of Finance such as the Regional Office of the Directorate General of Treasury (Kanwil DJPb) of North Sumatra Province. This study aims to analyze the effect of competence and work discipline on employee performance with job satisfaction as a mediating variable. This study uses a quantitative approach with a survey method. The population in this study was all 70 employees of the Regional Office of the Directorate General of Treasury in North Sumatra Province, with a saturated sample technique used for sampling. Primary data were collected through questionnaires and analyzed using the Partial Least Squares–Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) method with the help of the SmartPLS application. The results showed that competence and work discipline had a positive and significant effect on employee performance. In addition, competence and work discipline also had a positive and significant effect on job satisfaction. Job satisfaction was found to have a positive and significant effect on employee performance and acted as a mediating variable in the relationship between competence and employee performance, as well as between work discipline and employee performance. The coefficient of determination showed that competence and work discipline were able to explain 53.8% of the variation in job satisfaction, while competence, work discipline, and job satisfaction were able to explain 63.4% of the variation in employee performance. The results of this study imply that improving competence, enforcing consistent work discipline, and managing job satisfaction in a sustainable manner are important factors in improving employee performance in the North Sumatra Provincial Office of the Directorate General of Taxes.

Abstract

Employee performance is an important factor in determining the quality of public services in government agencies, including the West Medan Sub-District Office. Variations in employee performance indicate the need for an in-depth study of the factors that influence it. This study aims to analyze the influence of human resource quality and organizational culture on employee performance with work motivation as an intervening variable. The study uses a quantitative approach with a census method of all 60 civil servants (PNS) at the West Medan Sub-District Office as respondents. Data were collected through questionnaires and analyzed using Partial Least Square–Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) with the help of SmartPLS. The results show that HR quality and organizational culture have a positive and significant effect on employee performance and work motivation. Work motivation was also found to have a positive and significant effect on employee performance. In addition, work motivation acted as an intervening variable that strengthened the effect of HR quality and organizational culture on employee performance. The coefficient of determination showed that the variables of HR quality and organizational culture were able to explain 44.3% of work motivation, while HR quality, organizational culture, and work motivation together explained 52.1% of employee performance. These findings confirm that improving employee performance at the West Medan Sub-District Office does not only depend on structural aspects such as HR quality and organizational culture, but is also greatly influenced by employee work motivation. Therefore, strengthening competencies, establishing a conducive organizational culture, and strategies to increase work motivation need to be prioritized in efforts to improve the quality of public services.

High target demands, workloads, and the dynamics of taxation policies require employees to perform optimally. This study aims to analyze the influence of transformational leadership and work stress on employee performance with job satisfaction as a mediating variable at the Medan Belawan Tax Office. This study uses a quantitative approach with a census method of 100 permanent employees. Primary data were collected through questionnaires and analyzed using Partial Least Square (PLS) with the help of SmartPLS. The results show that transformational leadership has a positive but insignificant effect on employee performance, but has a positive and significant effect on job satisfaction. Work stress has a negative and significant effect on employee performance and job satisfaction. Job satisfaction has a positive and significant effect on employee performance. In addition, job satisfaction mediates the effect of transformational leadership and work stress on employee performance. These findings indicate that improving employee performance in the KPP Pratama Medan Belawan environment is more effectively done through strengthening job satisfaction, managing work stress, and implementing consistent transformational leadership. This study is expected to contribute theoretically to the development of human resource management in the public sector and provide practical recommendations for tax agency leaders.
