A Case Study in a Public Sector Environmental Agency
Keywords:
Employee Performance, Work Facilities, Work Discipline, Public Sector, Environmental AgencyAbstract
This study aims to analyze the partial and simultaneous influence of work facilities and work discipline on employee performance within a public environmental agency in a developing region. This research employed a quantitative approach with an explanatory research design. The population consisted of 171 employees at the Environmental Agency of Belu Regency, with a sample of 100 respondents selected through probability sampling using Slovin's formula. Data were collected via a validated and reliable questionnaire and analyzed using simple and multiple linear regression. The results demonstrate that: (1) Work facilities have a significant positive effect on employee performance (t=6.385, p<.001). (2) Work discipline has a significant positive effect on employee performance (t=7.532, p<.001). (3) Simultaneously, work facilities and work discipline significantly influence employee performance (F=36.820, p<.001), accounting for 42% of the variance in employee performance (Adjusted R² = 0.420). This study provides empirical evidence on the synergistic effect of structural support (facilities) and behavioral factors (discipline) on performance in the under-researched context of a local public environmental agency. The findings offer valuable insights for public sector managers on optimizing resource allocation and fostering a disciplined work culture to improve service delivery.
