Abstract
This research aims to analyse the influence of job satisfaction and work motivation on the performance of employees at the Yarsi Pontianak College of Health Sciences (Stikes). We employ a quantitative approach with explanatory research as our research method. We collected data by distributing questionnaires to all employees of Stikes Yarsi Pontianak, which included 20 lecturers and 26 education staff, resulting in a total sample of 46 people. The data analysis technique uses structural equation modelling (SEM) with a partial least squares (PLS) approach via SmartPLS version 4.0 software. The research results show that: (1) Job satisfaction has a positive and significant effect on the performance of Stikes Yarsi Pontianak employees with a t-statistic value of 1.969 > 1.96, p-values 0.050 < 0.050, and a path coefficient of 0.405; (2) Work motivation has a positive and significant effect on the performance of Stikes Yarsi Pontianak employees with a t-statistic value of 2.602 > 1.96, p-values 0.010 < 0.050, and a path coefficient of 0.540. These findings imply that to improve employee performance, Stikes Yarsi Pontianak must pay attention to factors that can increase job satisfaction and work motivation, such as a conducive work environment, fair compensation, career development opportunities, good interpersonal relationships, job security, suitability for tasks, and motivational approaches tailored to individual needs. Future research should investigate additional variables that could impact employee performance, utilizing a wider range of research methods to provide a more comprehensive understanding.
