dan penghargaan.

II. LATAR BELAKANG PEMILIHAN TEMA

Petunjuk:

Berisi uraian tentang pentingnya tema terkait dengan pendidikan/manajemen

pendidikan/ pencapaian tujuan pendidikan dan tentang keadaan saat akan diteliti,

dilengkapi paparan ringkas hasil penelitian dari jurnal terbaru yang relevan sebagai

pendukung bahwa penelitian mengungkapkan hal terkini berkaitan dengan tema (state

of the art), dan paparan ringkas data hasil penelitian pendahuluan.

Uraian:

Pegawai Pemerintah dengan Perjanjian Kerja atau disebut PPPK adalah

Warga Negara Indonesia yang memenuhi syarat tertentu, yang diangkat berdasarkan

perjanjian kerja untuk jangka waktu tertentu dalam rangka melaksanakan tugas

pemerintahan.

PPPK merupakan jalan keluar yang diambil oleh pemerintah untuk

memecahkan berbagai permasalahan kepegawaian pada instansi pemerintahan di

Indonesia yang tidak kunjung selesai dimana pemerintah sebenarnya kekurangan

pegawai untuk mengelola pemerintahan. Pengangkatan PPPK terbesar terjadi pada

sektor pendidikan yaitu sebagai guru, hal ini menjadi jalan keluar dari polemik

pengangkatan guru honor menjadi PNS yang sebelumnya sudah mengabdi dalam
3

jangka waktu yang lama namun statusnya masih sebagai guru honorer yang belum

diakui negara.

Pembukaan formasi PPPK dianggap menjadi solusi dua arah antara

pemerintah dan pegawai honorer yang mengabdi pada negara. Di satu sisi negara butuh

pegawai untuk menjalankan pemerintahan dan di sisi lain para pegawai honor juga

membutuhkan pengakuan negara serta mendapatkan gaji yang lebih layak dan berstatus

menjadi Aparatur Sipil Negara (ASN).

Pemerintah sebelumnya sudah memiliki Aparatur Sipil Negara (ASN)

sebagai pelayan masyarakat yang menyelenggarakan pemerintahan, dalam prakteknya

sekarang pemerintah juga memiliki pegawai yang disebut PPPK yang mana keduanya

memiliki tugas yang sama dalam pemerintahan. Pada prakteknya di lapangan, PPPK

guru tidak memiliki perbedaan tugas utama dengan ASN guru, keduanya memiliki

tanggung jawab dan beban kerja yang sama sebagai kewajiban mengajar kepada peserta

didik.

Petunjuk Teknis Pengadaan Pegawai Pemerintah Dengan Perjanjian Kerja

(2020) yang tercantum dalam Peraturan BKN Nomor 18 Tahun 2020 menunjukan

adanya beberapa perbedaan antara PPPK dengan ASN antara lain tidak adanya jaminan

pensiun, tidak adanya jenjang karir atau kenaikan pangkat dan golongan, perbedaan

tunjangan antara ASN dengan PPPK, perbedaan seragam yang digunakan dalam

bekerja serta berlakunya sistem perjanjian kontrak kerja antar waktu.

Sejatinya, PPPK merupakan ASN atau pegawai pemerintah dan memiliki

NIP kepegawaian yang diakui oleh negara. Namun di lapangan bisa ditemukan

beberapa kontroversi terkait perbedaan ASN dengan PPPK sehingga ada beberapa

gerakan dari tim yang mengatasamakan perwakilan PPPK untuk mengajukan


4

penyamaan hak dan kewajiban antara ASN dengan PPPK atau mengajukan perubahan

status dari PPPK untuk menjadi ASN. Tidak dapat dipungkiri bahwa PPPK berbeda

dengan ASN pada umumnya, di mana pada PPPK tidak ada jenjang karir seperti

kenaikan pangkat atau golongan serta berlakunya sistem kontrak yang diperpanjang

pada jangka waktu tertentu.

Berdasarkan data Badan Kepegawaian Negara tahun 2022 banyak dari guru

yang dinyatakan lulus seleksi PPPK mengundurkan diri. Pada seleksi tahap 1, terdapat

104 orang mengundurkan diri. Tahap 2 sebanyak 280 mengundurkan diri. Dari jumlah

tersebut, paling banyak guru PPPK yang mengundurkan diri berasal dari Provinsi Jawa

Barat, yaitu 39 orang. Berbagai alasan yang disampaikan oleh peserta yang

mengundurkan diri, salah satunya karena ketidakpuasan mereka terhadap gaji dan

tunjangan yang tidak sesuai harapan (Sutardi, 2022).

Peneliti melihat pentingnya pelayanan PPPK terutama guru dalam

melakukan tugasnya dalam pendidikan. Sehingga kepuasan kerja guru PPPK serta hal-

hal yang mempengaruhi kepuasan kerjanya perlu untuk diperhatikan bersama agar

proses pelayanan pendidikan dapat berjalan dengan baik. Banyak hal yang dapat

menjadi faktor penyebab kurangnya kepuasan kerja guru PPPK, diantaranya yaitu

kompensasi yang tidak sesuai harapan sebagaimana yang telah disebutkan pada kasus

di atas, serta jenjang karir yang terbatas. Hal tersebut tentunya dapat mempengaruhi

motivasi guru-guru PPPK dalam menjalankan tugas dan fungsinya di sekolah, sehingga

dikhawatirkan dapat berdampak pula pada komitmen mereka terhadap sekolah.

Kondisi mengenai kurangnya kepuasan kerja guru PPPK juga diperkuat

dengan data hasil survey pendahuluan mengenai kepuasan kerja yang dilakukan kepada

guru-guru PPPK SMAN di Kabupaten Karawang sebanyak 26 orang yang berasal dari
5

8 sekolah. Hasil survey menunjukkan bahwa terdapat 18% kepuasan guru PPPK yang

masih perlu ditingkatkan dalam hal perasaan mereka terhadap pekerjaan mereka saat

ini; 24% kepuasan guru PPPK yang masih perlu ditingkatkan melalui kondisi

lingkungan kerjanya; 31% kepuasan guru PPPK yang masih perlu ditingkatkan melalui

sikap pimpinan terhadapnya; 17% kepuasan guru PPPK yang masih perlu ditingkatkan

melalui hubungan kerja dengan sesama rekan kerja; 22% kepuasan guru PPPK yang

masih perlu ditingkatkan dalam hal kesempatan yang diberikan kepada mereka sebagai

PPPK untuk maju; 51% kepuasan guru PPPK yang masih perlu ditingkatkan dalam hal

imbalan yang layak bagi mereka sebagai PPPK; dan 50% kepuasan guru PPPK yang

masih perlu ditingkatkan melalui penghargaan terhadap mereka sebagai PPPK.

Berdasarkan kondisi di atas, penulis merasa perlu untuk meneliti lebih jauh

tentang kepuasan kerja yang dirasakan oleh guru-guru PPPK beserta variabel-variabel

yang teridentifikasi dari pembahasan di atas, yang diduga dapat mempengaruhi tingkat

kepuasan kerja guru PPPK, yaitu pengembangan karir, kompensasi, motivasi kerja, dan

komitmen terhadap organisasi. Dengan demikian, tema yang diangkat dalam penelitian

ini adalah Kepuasan Kerja Guru PPPK SMAN di Kabupaten Karawang.

VI. METODE PENELITIAN

Petunjuk:

Berisi uraian tentang cara dan metode penelitian yang dipilih untuk melakukan

penelitian. Metode tersebut dapat berupa penelitian kualitatif, kuantitatif, mix methods,

evaluasi program, atau pengembangan model. Deskripsikan langkah-langkah

penelitian yang dilakukan dan jadwal penelitian yang direncanakan.

Uraian:

1. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kuantitatif dengan metode survei dan

dianalisis menggunakan analisis jalur (path analysis). Sebagaimana dikutip dari

Setyaningsih (2021) analisis jalur adalah teknik untuk menganalisis hubungan

sebab akibat yang terjadi pada regresi berganda jika variabel bebasnya

mempengaruhi variabel tergantung tidak hanya secara langsung tetapi juga tidak

langsung. Teknik ini digambarkan dengan model diagram jalur untuk

menggambarkan adanya hubungan antar variabel bebas dengan terikat.

2. Penelitian ini juga menggunakan Analisis SITOREM (Scientific Identification

Theory to Conduct Operation Research in Education Management). Analisis


8

SITOREM merupakan metode ilmiah untuk mengidentifikasi variabel-variabel

untuk melaksanakan operation research dalam bidang manajemen pendidikan.

Analisis ini digunakan untuk mengidentifikasi kekuatan pengaruh antara variabel

bebas dengan variabel terikat, analisis nilai indikator vaiabel penelit.ian, dan

analisis terhadap bobot masing-masing indikator dari tiap variabel penelitian

berdasarkan cost, benefit, urgency, dan importance. (Setyaningsih, 2021)

3. Terdapat 3 kriteria dalam SITOREM untuk menetapkan urutan prioritas

penanganan indikator, yaitu:

a. Kekuatan pengaruh antar variabel yang diperoleh dari uji hipotesis.

b. Urutan prioritas penanganan indikator hasil penelitian dari ekspert.

c. Nilai indikator yang diperoleh dari perhitungan data yang diperoleh dari

jawaban responden penelitian.

4. Populasi dan Sampel

Populasi penelitian ini adalah Guru PPPK SMA se-Kabupaten Karawang.

VII. TINJAUAN TEORETIS

Petunjuk:

Berisi uraian tentang referensi yang digunakan berkaitan dengan tema penelitian yang

dipilih. Deskripsi sesuai ketentuan dari panduan penulisan disertasi, dipersyaratkan

minimal 10 referensi dengan prioritas sumber dari jurnal internasional (terbitan jurnal 5

tahun terakhir). Tidak diperkenankan menggunakan referensi sekunder.


11

Uraian:

a. Deskripsi teoretik variabel Pengembangan Karir terhadap Kompensasi, Motivasi

Kerja, Komitmen Organisasi, dan Kepuasan Kerja

Katharina & Dewi (2020) dalam hasil penelitiannya menunjukkan bahwa

pengembangan karir yang jelas memiliki dampak positif pada kepuasan kerja

karyawan. Tingkat kepuasan kerja karyawan dipengaruhi oleh kesempatan

pengembangan karir di dalam organisasi, dengan mengimplementasikan semua upaya

pengembangan karir untuk meningkatkan tingkat kepuasan kerja karyawan, yang pada

akhirnya akan menghasilkan peningkatan efisiensi kerja dan produktivitas. Salah satu

cara yang sangat ditekankan oleh manajemen untuk mencapai kepuasan dan

mempertahankan karyawan saat ini adalah melalui pengembangan karir. Semakin baik

proses pengembangan karir karyawan, semakin besar kemungkinan meningkatkan

kepuasan karyawan.

Pendapat di atas diperkuat dengan pendapat dari Widodo (2018) bahwa bagi

karyawan atau anggota organisasi program pengembangan karir akan dapat

memberikan manfaat, salah satunya adalah meningkatkan pekerjaan saat ini dan

menambah kepuasan bekerja. Dengan demikian, dapat disimpulkan bahwa

pengembangan karir dapat meningkatkan kepuasan kerja seseorang dalam organisasi.

Selanjutnya, teori Herzberg dalam Rice University (2019) menjelaskan

bahwa tingginya kepuasan kerja dapat dipengaruhi faktor-faktor pendorong/motivator,

yaitu (a) berprestasi, (b) pekerjaan yang berarti, (c) kesempatan untuk maju, (d)

peningkatan tanggung jawab, (e) pengakuan, dan (f) kesempatan untuk berkembang.

Pendapat ini menunjukkan bahwa pengembangan karir dapat menjadi faktor

pendorong untuk tercapainya kepuasan kerja seseorang, yaitu melalui kesempatan

untuk maju dan berkembang yang diberikan organisasi kepada karyawan, serta
12

peningkatan tanggung jawab, seperti mendapatkan jabatan yang lebih tinggi. Teori

Herzberg ini diilustrasikan sebagaimana pada gambar berikut.

Gambar 1

Teori Herzberg tentang Kepuasan Kerja

(Rice University, 2019)

b. Deskripsi teoretik variabel Kompensasi terhadap Motivasi Kerja, Komitmen

Organisasi, dan Kepuasan Kerja

Robbins & Coulter (2016) menjelaskan bahwa seorang manajer harus dapat

mengembangkan sistem kompensasi yang mencerminkan perubahan sifat pekerjaan

dan tempat kerja agar karyawan tetap termotivasi untuk bekerja.


13

Selanjutnya, Teori Herzberg dalam Rice University juga menjelaskan bahwa

ada dua tahap untuk mengelola motivasi dan kepuasan karyawan. Pertama, manajer

harus mengatasi faktor-faktor higienis (hygiene factors) yang dapat mengganggu

karyawan dalam pekerjaannya dan cenderung membuat mereka tidak termotivasi.

Faktor-faktor tersebut adalah yang terkait dengan kebutuhan dasar, seperti bayaran

yang cukup, kondisi kerja yang aman dan bersih, dan kesempatan untuk interaksi sosial

terpenuhi. Kedua, manajer juga harus mengatasi kebutuhan pendorong yang jauh lebih

kuat dan bersifat jangka panjang, seperti pengakuan, tanggung jawab, prestasi, dan

aktualisasi diri. Jika kebutuhan pendorong diabaikan, kepuasan jangka panjang dan

motivasi tinggi tidak mungkin terjadi. Namun, ketika kebutuhan pendorong terpenuhi,

karyawan merasa puas dan termotivasi untuk bekerja dengan baik. (Rice University,

2019)

Pendapat lain dari Edison et al. (2018) juga menjelaskan hal senada bahwa

kompensasi memiliki hubungan dengan motivasi dan kepuasan kerja. Sebab,

pegawai/karyawan yang terpenuhi kompensasinya, maka motivasinya jauh lebih baik

dibandingkan dengan pegawai/karyawan yang bekerja pada perusahaan/organisasi

yang tidak memberikan kompensasi yang layak. Jika motivasi meningkat, pada

akhirnya timbul kepuasan kerja yang berimplikasi dalam peningkatan kinerja.

Selanjutnya, menurut Hasibuan dalam Widodo (2018) tujuan pemberian

kompensasi, antara lain adalah (a) membuat ikatan kerjasama, (b) meningkatkan

kepuasan kerja, (c) pengadaan efektif, (d) meningkatkan motivasi, (e) menjaga

stabilitas karyawan, (f) menerapkan kedisiplinan, (g) menghindari pengaruh serikat

buruh, (h) menghindari intervensi pemerintah. Sehingga dapat disimpulkan bahwa

pemberian kompensasi dapat memberikan pengaruh terhadap motivasi dan kepuasan

kerja.
14

Selanjutnya pendapat dari McShane & Von Glinow (2018) menjelaskan

tentang persepsi atas keadilan hasil atau yang dianggap sebagai imbalan yang adil bagi

pekerja. Jika hasil seperti gaji dan promosi dianggap tidak adil dibandingkan dengan

orang lain dalam pekerjaan serupa yang membutuhkan usaha serupa, pekerja akan

merasakan ketidakpuasan dan mencari cara untuk mengembalikan keseimbangan, baik

dengan mencari imbalan yang lebih besar (terutama ekstrinsik) atau dengan

mengurangi usaha. Kepuasan kerja memiliki arti penting utama bagi individu.

Vance (2006) menjelaskan dikarenakan komitmen membutuhkan investasi

waktu serta energi mental dan emosional, kebanyakan orang membuat komitmen

dengan harapan adanya reciprocation atau pertukaran yang setara. Artinya, orang

menganggap bahwa sebagai imbalan atas komitmen mereka, mereka akan

mendapatkan sesuatu yang berharga sebagai balasan, seperti bantuan, kasih sayang,

hadiah, perhatian, barang, uang, dan properti. Di dunia kerja, karyawan dan pengusaha

tradisionalnya telah membuat perjanjian yang tersirat: sebagai imbalan atas komitmen

para pekerja, organisasi akan memberikan bentuk-bentuk nilai kepada karyawan,

seperti pekerjaan yang aman dan kompensasi yang adil. Reciprocity memengaruhi

intensitas dari suatu komitmen. Ketika entitas atau individu yang telah diberi

komitmen oleh seseorang gagal memberikan pertukaran yang diharapkan, maka

komitmen tersebut akan melemah.

c. Deskripsi teoretik variabel Motivasi Kerja terhadap Komitmen Organisasi dan

Kepuasan Kerja

Kreitner & Kinicki (2010) mengungkapkan hasil analisis meta dari sembilan

studi dan 1.739 pekerja mengungkapkan hubungan positif yang signifikan antara

motivasi dan kepuasan kerja. Karena kepuasan terhadap pengawasan juga berkorelasi

signifikan dengan motivasi, para manajer disarankan untuk mempertimbangkan


15

bagaimana perilaku mereka memengaruhi kepuasan karyawan. Para manajer memiliki

potensi untuk meningkatkan motivasi karyawan melalui berbagai upaya untuk

meningkatkan kepuasan kerja. Motivasi dan variable-variabel lainnya yang berkorelasi

dengan kepuasan kerja juga dideskripsikan dalam gambar berikut.

Gambar 2

Korelasi tentang Kepuasan Kerja

(Kreitner & Kinicki, 2010)

Selanjutnya, pendapat dari Colquitt et al. (2019) menjelaskan bahwa

hubungan antara motivasi dan komitmen organisasi tampak mudah dipahami. Pada

dasarnya, bentuk-bentuk penarikan diri secara psikologis dan fisik yang mencirikan

karyawan yang kurang berkomitmen adalah bukti dari tingkat motivasi yang rendah.

Penelitian tentang kesetaraan dan komitmen organisasi memberikan wawasan paling

jelas tentang hubungan motivasi dan komitmen. Secara khusus, karyawan yang merasa

adil cenderung lebih terikat emosional dengan perusahaan mereka dan merasa
16

memiliki kewajiban yang lebih kuat untuk tetap bertahan. Penjelasan tersebut disajikan

pula dalam bagan berikut ini.

Gambar 3

Pengaruh Motivasi terhadap Kinerja dan Komitmen Organisasional

(Colquitt et al., 2019)

d. Deskripsi teoretik variabel Komitmen Organisasi terhadap Kepuasan Kerja

McShane & Von Glinow (2018) menjelaskan perbedaan individu yang

penting salah satunya yaitu keterlibatan dalam pekerjaan dan komitmen terhadap

organisasi. Masing-masing orang akan berbeda tentang sejauh mana (1) pekerjaan

merupakan minat utama dalam hidup, (2) mereka secara aktif berpartisipasi dalam

pekerjaan, (3) mereka memandang pekerjaan sebagai hal yang sentral bagi harga diri,

dan (4) mereka memandang pekerjaan sebagai sesuatu yang konsisten dengan konsep

diri. Orang yang tidak terlibat dalam pekerjaan mereka atau dalam organisasi tempat
17

mereka bekerja tidak dapat diharapkan mencapai kepuasan yang sama seperti mereka

yang terlibat. Variabel ini menjelaskan mengapa dua pekerja dapat melaporkan

tingkat kepuasan yang berbeda untuk tingkat kinerja yang sama. Ini berarti bahwa

tingkat kepuasan seseorang juga dipengaruhi oleh komitmennya terhadap organisasi

tersebut.

Persentase 5% 45% 41% 8% 1%

Keterangan:

1. Jumlah responden sebanyak 20 orang dapat dihitung dengan menjumlahkan skor ke

samping dari kolom jawaban Sangat Setuju (SS) sampai dengan Sangat Tidak Setuju

(STS). Contoh: Pada butir 1 diketahui responden yang menjawab SS= 8, S=14, N=4,

TS=0, STS=0. Sehingga dapat diketahui jumah responden dalam survey ini adalah

8+14+4+0+0 = 26 responden.

2. Persentase jawaban diperoleh dengan langkah-langkah berikut:

a. Menjumlahkan ke bawah seluruh skor butir-butir pernyataan per-indikator pada

setiap kolom alternatif jawaban. Contoh: Pada indikator Perasaan terhadap

pekerjaan itu sendiri terdapat 4 butir pernyataan. Diketahui jawaban Sangat

Setuju pada butir 1 sebanyak 8 orang, butir 2 sebanyak 6 orang, butir ketiga

sebanyak 10 orang, dan butir keempat sebanyak 6 orang. Sehingga diketahui

rekapitulasi jumlah dari jawaban Sangat Setuju pada indikator ini adalah

8+6+10+6 = 30.
b. Menghitung persentase untuk alternatif jawaban Sangat Setuju pada indikator

Perasaan terhadap pekerjaan itu sendiri dengan cara (30/26 x 100%) : 4

(jumlah butir pernyataan) = 29%.

c. Perhitungan persentase untuk alternatif jawabannya lainnya pada setiap indikator

menggunakan langkah yang sama seperti di atas.

3. Indikator yang perlu ditingkatkan dihitung dengan cara menambahkan hasil

persentase dari jawaban Netral (N), Tidak Setuju (TS), dan Sangat Tidak Setuju (STS)

pada masing-masing indikator sebagai berikut.

a. Indikator 1: 16% + 2% + 0% = 18%

b. Indikator 2: 22% + 2% + 0% = 24%

c. Indikator 3: 30% + 2% + 0% = 32%

d. Indikator 4: 16% + 1% + 0% = 17%

e. Indikator 5: 20% + 2% + 0% = 22%

f. Indikator 6: 35% + 13% + 3% = 51%

g. Indikator 7: 41% + 8% + 1% = 50%

Kesimpulan:

1. Terdapat 18% kepuasan guru PPPK yang masih perlu ditingkatkan dalam hal

perasaan mereka terhadap pekerjaan mereka saat ini.

2. Terdapat 24% kepuasan guru PPPK yang masih perlu ditingkatkan melalui kondisi

lingkungan kerjanya.

3. Terdapat 31% kepuasan guru PPPK yang masih perlu ditingkatkan melalui sikap

pimpinan terhadapnya.

4. Terdapat 17% kepuasan guru PPPK yang masih perlu ditingkatkan melalui

hubungan kerja dengan sesama rekan kerja.

5. Terdapat 22% kepuasan guru PPPK yang masih perlu ditingkatkan dalam hal
kesempatan yang diberikan kepada mereka sebagai PPPK untuk maju.

6. Terdapat 51% kepuasan guru PPPK yang masih perlu ditingkatkan dalam hal

imbalan yang layak bagi mereka sebagai PPPK.

7. Terdapat 50% kepuasan guru PPPK yang masih perlu ditingkatkan melalui

thus a complex summation of many
discrete elements.

Definisi tentang kepuasan kerja menurut


Robbins dan Judge adalah perasaan
positif tentang pekerjaan yang dihasilkan
dari evaluasi karakteristiknya, yang
bermakna luas. Namun luasnya itu
sesuai. Pekerjaan membutuhkan
interaksi dengan rekan kerja dan atasan,
mengikuti aturan dan kebijakan
organisasi, menentukan struktur
kekuasaan, memenuhi standar kinerja,
hidup dengan kondisi kerja yang kurang
ideal, beradaptasi dengan teknologi baru,
dan sebagainya. Oleh karena itu,
penilaian kepuasan karyawan terhadap
pekerjaannya merupakan gabungan dari
berbagai elemen yang sangat kompleks.

Kepuasan kerja menurut Colquitt,


Lepine, & Wesson adalah keadaan
emosional yang menyenangkan yang
dihasilkan dari penilaian pekerjaan
seseorang atau pengalaman kerja.
Dengan kata lain, ini mewakili
bagaimana perasaan seseorang tentang
pekerjaannya dan apa yang dipikirkan
tentang pekerjaannya. Karyawan dengan
kepuasan kerja yang tinggi mengalami
perasaan positif ketika mereka berpikir
tentang tugas mereka atau mengambil
bagian dalam kegiatan tugas. Karyawan
dengan pengalaman kepuasan kerja yang
rendah perasaan negatif ketika mereka
berpikir tentang tugas mereka atau
mengambil bagian dalam aktivitas tugas
mereka.

menjelaskan bahwa kepuasan
merupakan konsep organisasi sebagai
sistem sosial yang mensyaratkan adanya
pertimbangan terhadap manfaat yang
diterima oleh partisipan/karyawan
organisasi serta oleh pelanggan dan
klien. Kepuasan dan moral merupakan
istilah-istilah serupa yang merujuk pada
sejauh mana organisasi memenuhi

Kepuasan kerja menurut Kreitner &
Kinicki adalah tanggapan afektif atau
emosional terhadap berbagai aspek
pekerjaan seseorang. Definisi ini
mengimplikasikan bahwa kepuasan
kerja bukanlah konsep tunggal.
Sebaliknya, seseorang bisa merasa
cukup puas dengan satu aspek
pekerjaannya dan tidak puas dengan satu
atau lebih aspek lainnya.

Kepuasan kerja dapat didefinisikan

word movere, which means “to move.”
This meaning is evident in the following
comprehensive definition: motivation
is a process that starts with a
physiological or psychological
deficiency or need that activates a
behavior or a drive that is aimed at a
goal or incentive.

Luthans berpendapat bahwa saat ini


hampir semua orang - praktisi dan
sarjana - memiliki definisi motivasi
mereka sendiri. Biasanya satu atau
lebih dari kata-kata berikut
dimasukkan: keinginan, ingin, harapan,
tujuan, hasrat, kebutuhan, dorongan,
motif, dan insentif. Secara teknis,
istilah motivasi dapat ditelusuri ke kata
Latin "movere," yang berarti
"bergerak." Makna ini terlihat dalam
definisi komprehensif berikut: motivasi
adalah suatu proses yang dimulai
dengan kekurangan atau kebutuhan
fisik atau psikologis yang
mengaktifkan perilaku atau dorongan
yang ditujukan pada tujuan atau
insentif.

faktor internal dan eksternal yang
mendorong seseorang untuk terlibat
dalam perilaku yang terkait dengan
tujuan. Motivasi dapat mempengaruhi
intensitas, arah, dan ketekunan yang
ditunjukkan seseorang dalam bekerja
menuju suatu tujuan. Intensitas
berkaitan dengan seberapa keras
seseorang berusaha. Namun, intensitas
yang tinggi tidak mungkin berdampak
positif pada kinerja kerja kecuali upaya
tersebut diarahkan pada hal yang
bermanfaat. Akhirnya, upaya
memerlukan ketekunan. Ini adalah
ukuran seberapa lama seseorang dapat
mempertahankan upayanya. Individu
yang termotivasi tetap berkomitmen

CHAPTER 1

What Is
Organizational
Behaviour?
An organization decides it will hire people
with few skills and job experience. What
challenges might its managers face?

1 What is organizational behaviour?

Isn’t organizational behaviour common sense?


2 Or just like psychology?

How does knowing about organizational


3 behaviour make work and life more
understandable?

4 What challenges do managers and employees


face in the workplace of the twenty-first century?
88 Part 1 Understanding the Workplace

Exit and neglect behaviours encompass our performance variables—productivity,


absenteeism, and turnover. But this list expands employee response to include voice
and loyalty—constructive behaviours that allow individuals to tolerate unpleasant
situations or to revive satisfactory working conditions. It helps us to understand sit-
uations, such as those sometimes found among unionized employees, where low job
satisfaction is coupled with low turnover.83 Union members often express dissatis-
faction through the grievance procedure or through formal contract negotiations.
These voice mechanisms allow the union members to continue in their jobs while
convincing themselves that they are acting to improve the situation.

Organizational Commitment

• Affective commitment. An individual’s relationship to the organization: his or
her emotional attachment to, identification with, and involvement in the
organization.
• Normative commitment. The obligation an individual feels to staying with the
organization.
• Continuance commitment. An individual’s calculation that it is in his or her
best interest to stay with the organization based on the perceived costs of
leaving the organization.
Affective commitment is strongly associated with positive work behaviours such as
performance, attendance, and citizenship. Normative commitment is less strongly
associated with positive work behaviours. However, when affective and normative
commitment decline, individuals are much more likely to quit their jobs.86
Because continuance commitment reflects an individual’s calculation that it is in
his or her best interest to stay with the organization (perhaps because it would be dif-
ficult to find a job elsewhere), it is often associated with negative work behaviours.

Chapter 3 Values, Attitudes, and Their Effects in the Workplace 89

Arnold Carbone (centre) receives


a high level of job satisfaction and
has a positive attitude about his
job. Carbone, as “Conductor of
Bizarre and D” at Ben & Jerry’s,
travels the world and eats as
many desserts as he can in his job
as developer of new ice-cream
flavours for Ben & Jerry’s.
Carbone created flavours such as
Phish Food and Wavy Gravy.

People in highly paid jobs and union members with good benefits may exhibit con-
tinuance commitment because of the rewards received from the job, rather than their
preference for the job itself.87
The notion of organizational commitment has changed in recent years. Twenty
years ago, employees and employers had an unwritten loyalty contract, with employ-
ees typically remaining with a single organization for most of their careers. This notion
has become increasingly obsolete. As such, “measures of employee-firm attachment, such
as commitment, are problematic for new employment relations.”88 Canadian busi-
ness consultant Barbara Moses notes that “40-somethings still value loyalty: they think
people should be prepared to make sacrifices, to earn their way. The 20-somethings
are saying, ‘No, I want to be paid for my work; I have no belief in the goodness of
organizations, so I’m going to be here as long as my work is meaningful.’”89
How can companies increase organizational commitment? Research on a number
of companies known for employees with high organizational commitment identified
five reasons why employees commit themselves:90

• They are proud of [the company’s] aspirations, accomplishments, and legacy;


they share its values.

• They know what each person is expected to do, how performance is meas-
ured, and why it matters.

• They are in control of their own destinies; they savour the high-risk, high-
reward work environment.

• They are recognized mostly for the quality of their individual performance.

• They have fun and enjoy the supportive and highly interactive environment.

These findings suggest a variety of ways for organizations to increase the commitment
of employees. Additionally, a recent study conducted in five countries suggests that an
individual’s organizational commitment is strongly associated with whether the employee
finds the work interesting.91 Earlier in the chapter we discussed the role of satisfaction
on organizational citizenship behaviour (OCB). We should also note that when individ-
uals have high organizational commitment, they are likely to engage in more OCB.

Abstract Keywords
training; career
Training is a systematic process of an organization aimed at
developing individual skills, abilities, knowledge or attitudes that can development;
change employee behavior in achieving company goals that have been quality of work
set. Career development is a continuous process in which individuals
go through personal efforts to realize career planning goals that are
adapted to organizational conditions. Employee performance is the
result of an assigned job in an organization. This study aimed to
determine the role of training and career development on the quality
of work through its competence as an intervention. The research
method used is qualitative. The study results can be concluded that
training and career development have a role in the quality of work. It
can be seen that training and career development indirectly influence
the quality of work.

I. Introduction

Indonesia is developing to reach a developed country in the next decade. The country
still faces many problems in achieving the desired goals. Companies and governments
have invested significant amounts of time and effort in recent years in policies and
initiatives to improve work-life balance. In efforts to improve work-life balance, the
government and the private sector have made various efforts. These efforts include
providing salary increases, annual bonus payments, gifts to brilliant workers at work and
providing various facilities for workers. However, these efforts have not been able to fulfill
the wishes of some workers because each worker has an assessment in assessing their
respective interests (Luthfiani, 2020).
As a developing country, Indonesia needs some productive workers. The problem at
the good level of organizations in non-business or business is that they have people who
are intellectually capable of doing good. However, good intellectual abilities are often not
manifested in the achievement of work for the organizations where they work less
supportive of realizing their potential. The fulfillment of individual and organizational
goals are independent, but they are linked by motivation.
The ASEAN economic community has come to Indonesia since 2015. This is shown
by a change in attitude that must be better and be able to compete well in companies both
domestically and companies that are abroad or foreign. The pillar of the existence of a
company is human resources to become even better and highly competitive, even though
the company is aware of the importance of natural resources, which are considered the
most valuable and empowering assets so that they can make human resources more
comfortable and productive so that they can obtain the better goal.
For example, in the world of education in the millennial era, which is growing in
Indonesia, companies in the banking sector have undergone major changes in recent years.
The development of banking is now taking place to be more advanced, faster and more

efficient in the increasingly fierce competition, can improve quality and excellence so that
banking can develop can become a financial solution for the community.
It can be seen in the banking competition in Indonesia, which is currently getting tight
and strong. In order to be able to maintain competition, companies are required to have a
competitive advantage. To improve the quality of employees' work so that they become
more productive, training is needed to help employees find and reach the level of expertise
and ability to be successful in carrying out their work. Thus the vision is carried out so that
the learning process can enable an employee to carry out work according to standards and
improve the competencies possessed by an employee. Efforts in training are carried out then
an employee can improve his abilities and skills so that he can continue to develop his
potential and skills by developing a career.
Career development has a relationship with the process carried out by the organization
to select, define and develop all employees to gather competitive people and meet future
needs (Mukhsin 2019).
Career Development and Quality of Work. The quality of work affects job satisfaction
and life satisfaction, such as family life, social life, finances and worker welfare. Quality of
work-life is a concept in which life satisfaction is at the highest level, and job satisfaction is
in the middle. Job satisfaction can be obtained from job satisfaction with salary, coworkers,
and supervisors. Quality of work life is important. Several studies point to the fact that
happy workers are productive workers; Happy workers are employees who are devoted and
committed to the organization.
Quality of work also aims to make work more interesting and benefit workers. There
are three distinct elements of quality of work-life: related interventions: (1) concerns about
the effects of work on people as well as organizational effectiveness, (2) the idea of worker
participation in organizational problem solving and decision making and (3) creation of a
reward structure in the workplace that takes into account Innovative ways to value employee
input into work processes such as profit sharing. The role of human resources is now
something that companies must consider. Human resources
Workers will stay in the organization depending on how they see their future in the
organization. The worker will stay in the organization when he feels that the job design
provided by the organization is useful for his job and career. Clear career advancement in
their work-life also greatly influenced workers to survive in the organization. Initially, career
activities are carried out by the organization, but career development will be effective if it is
carried out jointly between workers and organizations. The workers' needs strongly
influence employee satisfaction in career development. Organizations should offer career
development patterns to meet these worker goals. The career development pattern offered by
the organization to meet the needs of employees is not necessarily considered so by workers
(Maulyan, 2019). In other words, accepting career development workers will depend on how
they respond to and perceive this career development. Workers' Perceptions of career
development are influenced by the interaction between values, expectations, and goals of
workers carried out through work experience.
Covers career development practices used in organizations, such as placing clear
expectations of employees on their expectations and succession plans. Quality of work life is
related to career development, and a career develops from the interaction of individuals
within the organization. Careers emerge from the interaction of individuals with
organizations and society. A career is not primarily a theoretical construction but is used in a
sense that means way, gives meaning and creates meaning and experience. A career is
usually defined as a 'sequence' of work roles or the sequence of work experience a person
has over time.

16253
Career development is the process and activities to prepare workers for positions in the
organization, which will be carried out in the future. Career development needs to be done
because a worker not only wants to get what is his or her but expects change, progress, and
opportunities to advance to a higher level. Several things that encourage career development
in a worker are: first, the desire to develop themselves according to their intellectual
abilities; second, to obtain the compensation that is greater than usual; third, to gain freedom
in work; fourth, to ensure work safety and the last to pursue achievement in work.
Personal Factors and Quality of Work Life are also related to personal factors.
Personal factors such as age, income, and education level are related to the quality of
working life. In addition, several studies have shown that marital status, education level and
age are correlated with employment. Another study reported that length of service was
associated with quality of work. Gender, length of service and education correlate with the
quality of components of work-life such as job satisfaction, supervisors, support and work
environment. Meanwhile, gender, age, education and marital status correlate with the quality
of working life.

II. Review of Literature

2.1 The Quality of Work


The instrument is a quality of work-life scale designed for several aspects of quality of
work-life (Suwarto, 2015). There are several aspects of the quality of work-life, namely;
adequate and fair compensation, safe and healthy working conditions, direct opportunities to
use and develop human capacities, opportunities for continued growth and security, social
integration in work organizations, constitutionalism in work organizations, work and total
living space and social relevance of working life. The subjects of this study were asked to
respond using a four-point scale response option ranging from strongly disagree (1) to agree
(4) strongly. A higher score would indicate a higher level of quality Work-life.

2.2 Career Development


The instrument design is a career development scale using several aspects of career
development. There are several aspects of career development, namely, belonging to
individual roles, supervisory roles, and organizational roles. The research subjects were
asked to respond using a four-point response option on a scale ranging from strongly
disagree (1) to agree (4) strongly. A higher score would indicate a higher degree of career
development.

III. Research Method

This study uses qualitative data sourced from scientific articles and books. The
secondary data was taken from previous studies to examine the concept and form a new
research model related to the relationship of remuneration to the quality of public services.

IV. Results and Discussion

Based on statistical analysis, there is a significant correlation between career


development and quality of work life. Thus, it can be concluded that the quality of work-life
of job employees depends on how these workers perceive career development in the
organization. If employees feel that they can develop themselves in the organization, they
feel that the organization can meet their personal needs. On the other hand, if workers

16254
cannot develop themselves, the organization cannot fulfill their personal needs. The results
are consistent with what was proposed (Asmawiyah, 2020), that nowadays, people no longer
fulfill physiological needs only but also need non-material improvements as a manifestation
of self-actualization in the form of career development. Career
Development is all kinds of activities carried out in organizations to implement career
plans to achieve career goals. How workers view their career development can influence
work attitudes and behavior in organizations because individual perceptions of neediness are
one of the factors that indicate the formation of attitudes and behavior.
Three reasons explain the relationship between career development and quality of
work life. First, the effectiveness of career development will be obtained if career
development activities are carried out jointly between workers, employers and organizations.
Workers, who have a positive perception of career development and are supported by the
organization, tend to have high motivation to achieve goals (Wati, 2020). Thus, workers
who are satisfied with their work and career will be loyal to the organization and work to
increase profitability and productivity.
Second, the relationship between career development and quality of work-life can be
explained. Career development is an attempt to match the goals and objectives of workers
with the career opportunities available today and in the future in the organization.
Individuals will have career opportunities in line with the offers provided by the
organization (Ruhiyat et al., 2022). Workers will accept the career development pattern
offered by the organization as a supporter to move forward. Both working conditions,
support and opportunities for development are the main considerations in the working life of
workers. Acceptance of career development will depend on how they respond to and
perceive this career development. Workers' Perceptions of career development are
influenced by the interaction between workers' values, expectations, and goals through
positive experiences gained during work (Man, 2020).
Third, a positive relationship between career development and quality of work-life can
be explained. Organizations that manage and develop human resources effectively will have
a high level of productivity, high market value and higher profit growth. In other words,
these organizations can meet the needs of organizations, shareholders and investors. In
addition, effective human resource management can meet the needs of workers in various
ways that are consistent with the organization's capacity. So human resources in the
organization will be able to develop themselves optimally. Studies show that workers are
willing to sacrifice for the organization, so workers will be willing to work and make some
efforts for the organization's success. Willingness will only grow and develop if employees
believe that the organization's success is also a success in achieving the desired career
(Farida & Hendarsiah 2022).
The results of this study report a significant relationship between personal factors and
quality of work life. The results of this study indicate that male workers have a higher level
of work quality than female workers. The female employees had to overcome more
obstacles than their male counterparts. Consequently, it seems reasonable to expect that
perceptions of inequality may affect female employee opportunities (Putri & Rambe, 2022).
In addition, workers who are older and have higher education also have a high quality
of work life. Older employees can better balance personal and work/organizational needs
than younger employees. They are more likely to cognitively justify staying with the
organization because they may have limited alternative job opportunities and greater costs
than younger employees. As a result, older employees tend to develop more positive
attitudes towards their jobs (Halisa, 2020). Employees with a greater level of education

16255
experience more growth opportunities, concern with the quality of their work performance
than those with a lower level of education (Hakim et al., 2019).
The results also show that the length of service significantly correlates with the quality
of work life. These results are consistent with previous research, which showed that work
experience is closely related to the quality of work life. Other studies also support the results
of this study. The tenure of service has a significant relationship with the quality of working
life. Workers with a higher length of service have a higher quality of work-life than new
workers. Employees with more work experience have more respect for their work and can
apply their experience to it; they are also more likely to enjoy the physical work
environment. Service duration appears to affect current employment, pay, supervision and
coworkers. It could be concluded that those with more experience tend to be more satisfied,
become higher performers and are more productive than those new to the organization
(Annalia, 2020).
Several studies have also shown that married workers are better able to survive in the
work environment than unmarried workers (Dewi et al., 2019). Those who are married and
have children have a higher quality of work-life than those who are single. Previous
researchers have observed that in the early stages of their careers, individuals are often
willing to sacrifice their personal lives to benefit their career advancement. However, as
individuals age into the maturity stage of their careers, they have been found to place a
greater emphasis on the balance between their work and family life that individuals place on
their family roles as they age.
Previous research has found that getting married leads individuals to prioritize their
personal life over work (Tiara et al., 2020). Similarly, parenthood increases the importance
individuals place on their family's role. Several studies have shown that happy family life
correlates with high job satisfaction and objective career achievement.

V. Conclusion

From the explanation above, it can be concluded that training and career development
have an important role in improving the quality of work. This further shows that successful
employees carry over into one's career and make one more satisfied with personal
achievements. The fact that deserves to be concluded is the importance of career
achievement of quality work. In the current context, the emphasis is on income, position,
personal growth and opportunities for career mobility as a potential success.

CAREER DEVELOPMENT

1. Definitions
Sullivan and Baruch defined “career” as “an individual’s work-related and other relevant
experiences, both inside and outside of organizations that form a unique pattern over the
individual’s life span” (2009), this definition distinguishes both physical movement as well as the
interpretation of individual’s perceptions of the career.

One definition of career management is that it is the planning of one’s activities and
engagements in the job one assumes in the path of his life for better completion, growth and
financial stability (Juneja, n.d.). Moreover, Career Development Association of Alberta defined
career development as “the lifelong process of managing learning, work, leisure, and transitions
in order to move toward a personally determined and evolving preferred future” (2012).

Workers want the chance to progress in their careers, “opportunity is the top reason why
39 percent of employees are engaged.” (Dixon, 2017). Along with that increased engagement,
career development programs lead to holding more people who are productive and grow their
skills, thus advancing the organization.

2. Career Management Components


If an organization lacks career development programs, it may lose talented employees. By
implementing a career development program you will not retain all your valuable talented
employees, but you will decrease the risk of losing them, so this program is essential for all
organizations, and the components of career development are:

1. Education
2. Capability
3. Network
4. Experience

2.1 Education
The first component/element of career development is education. This includes
both training (degree, certificates and classes) as well as self-training like reading,
ongoing classes, books and reading blogs and being always up-to-date for new

6
CAREER DEVELOPMENT

researches in the relevant field. Successful careers starts with education, getting
education to understand the broad concepts and overview of the relative industry is
crucial. However, you should not over invest in education without having experience.
While education is crucial, it’s a form of power, and how you invest this education is
more important than the paper itself. A bachelor degree is the most essential need in
any business now a days, however, in resumes education part is usually listed in the
bottom (Owyang, 2012).

2.2 Capability
The next component of career development, is the capability. Capabilities are the
raw skills needed to complete your jobs. These can include data, developing strategies,
project management, software management, programming, or a wide range of
knowledge working. Most employers agree that having both strategic and tactical skills
are needed (Owyang, 2012).

2.2.1 Strategic Skills


6 key strategic skills are: (Brearley, n.d.)

 Knowing how to prioritize: Arranging your workload is a key strategic skill. Don’t use a
complicated process, start with “Must Do” tasks and “Won’t Do” tasks. That’s it. No more
classifications.
 Knowing when you need to be involved: Another vital strategic skill is understanding
where you add the most value. Leaders don’t need to engross themselves in everything
their team does. You need to know when to get out of the detail and let your team run
things.
 Knowing how to manage up: One of the most important strategic skills is know how to
manage up. Strategic leaders don’t say “Yes” all the time. They push back on people when
they need to and say “No”. If you say “Yes” all the time, you’re going to be overwhelmed
in the long run.
 Knowing when to delegate responsibility, not just tasks: Handing over isn’t just about
tasks. Sometimes, you can delegate responsibility in your team to others. Not only does
this provide growth chances for your team, it frees up some of your time.

7
CAREER DEVELOPMENT

 Knowing how to resource your team properly: Having the right people in your team is
a strategic skill in itself. If you don’t have the right skills in your team, you’ll never be able
to take advantage of opportunities. You’ll be playing catch-up, because you don’t have the
right skills, or enough people.
 Being aware of the outside world: Leaders with good strategic skills understand what’s
going on around them. Keep an eye out for industry trends or technologies that may help
you and your team perform better. The world outside is changing and if you don’t keep an
eye on it, it might leave you behind.

2.2.2 Tactical Skills


5 key tactical skills: (Berkus, 2014)

 Delegate: Nothing is more of a turn off to a minion than having the boss do the
work for that person. Worse yet, breakdown to delegate make the leader the key
blockage in the flow of work through an organization. A great leader learns to
delegate, first.
 Measure the results of delegation: If there is no attempt to measure, no-one will
know if the work is up to standards for timeliness, quality, or the vision of the
leader. There are many types of metrics, some very easy to accomplish. But failure
to find and use them regularly is a failure at the top.
 Support: A leader’s obligation is to make sure that anything he delegates and
measures is given a chance of success by providing the tools required to perform
the job. Those include funding, people, training and facilities.
 Reward: “A great leader is a great cheerleader”, knowing when and how to reward
effective achievement through all levels of the organization. People naturally work
for rewards, from simple recognition to financial incentives.
 Celebrate: There is no greater feeling than to achieve a goal and to celebrate that
with some form of out-of-the-ordinary event. It can be a simple handshake and
comment in front of others who count, or an all-company celebration after
achievement of a major goal. A leader who fails to follow through and celebrate
misses a major opportunity to enhance the culture of the organization and motivate
the troops to further achievements.

CAREER DEVELOPMENT

2.3 Network
Network is the third component of career development. These are the individuals in
your career that you can depend on that will assist you when you ask, or will voluntarily
help you without asking. Like all relationships, your business network involves constant
attention and coaching. Don’t be that person who just comes around when you need
something, but be there to help others, and uphold an ongoing relationship (Owyang, 2012).

2.4 Experience
The fourth and last component of career development is experience. Solid careers may
have a chain of job positions that affiliate around a common career theme (marketing,
management, software, etc.) and having a solid track record is key. For those getting
ongoing in their career this is a challenge, as most entry level positions are seeking the
experienced. Focus on volunteering, interning, and attending local events to get networked.
In the end, this row becomes crucial as it’s the majority of one’s resume (Owyang, 2012).

Figure 1: Career Development Process

3.1 Identifying Career Needs


Some large organizations have assessment centers or apply career development
workshops wherein a group of employees are brought together to undertake psychological
testing, simulation exercises, and depth interviews. This process helps the employee to
make a decision concerning career goals and the steps to be taken to put efforts to
accomplish these goals. The HR manager also plays an important role of providing

9
CAREER DEVELOPMENT

information and assistance in making decisions about the career needs of the employee
(Risha, n.d.).

3.2 Developing Career Opportunities


Career opportunities are identified through job analysis. The manager should
identify career path for employees in the organization. He should discuss with the employees what
jobs are available in the organizational hierarchy and at the same time find where the employee
would want to go up in the organization in future. The employees should be provided information
regarding job postings that are available in the organization and, for future reference, what
requirements they will have to fulfill to achieve the promotion which they aspire (Risha, n.d.).

3.2.1 Career Path


Career paths are means that individuals take from their first foray into the job
market through to their final position before retirement. Commonly, speaking career paths start
with the most junior position and end with the most senior position, this isn’t always the case but
is likely the intent of the individual. It’s important to start thinking of career paths early as the
alternatives made early on in a career can influence the opportunities available in the future (HR
Zone, n.d.).

3.2.2 Job Analysis


Job analysis is a process to identify and determine in detail the certain job duties
and requirements and the comparative importance of these duties for a given job. Job analysis is a
process where results are made about data collected on a job.

“The Job; not the person”. An imperative notion of job analysis is that the analysis
is conducted of the job, not the person. While job analysis data may be collected from executives
through interviews or questionnaires, the result of the analysis is a description or specifications of
the job, not a description of the person (HR Guide, 2015).

3.2.3 Succession Planning


Business Jargons defined succession planning as “the systematic process of recognizing and
creating future leaders who are able to take the position of the old ones when they leave the
organization due to retirement, resignation, termination, transfer, promotion or death.” (Business
Jargons, n.d.).

10
CAREER DEVELOPMENT

3.2.3.1 Succession Planning Process


Succession planning process consists of 5 steps: (Business Jargons, n.d.)
Step Explanation
First, the key business areas are identified, i.e.
the areas which are significant with respect to
the operational activities and strategic
Identifying Key Business Areas and Positions
objectives. After that, those positions are
identified which if vacant can cause difficulty
in achieving business objectives.
You need to determine the required
competencies for key business areas and
position, in order to create the selection

successors know and what they need to know,
through the training and development process.
It determines the knowledge, skills, ability and
experience required to achieve business goals.
After competency is analyzed, the next step is
to identify among various employees working
in the organization, who are interested as well
as they have the capability to fill key business
Find out the interested and potential candidates areas and positions. The Human Resource

The last step to the succession planning
process is to evaluate the succession planning

business areas and positions are covered under

ensures that in case of any sudden vacancies in
future, key positions can be filled as soon as
possible and the successors perform
effectively when they hold the position.
Table 1: Succession Planning Process

11
CAREER DEVELOPMENT

Therefore, Succession Planning is all about developing a leadership substitute, for


a perpetual succession of the organization without any kind of disturbance, when there are changes
in the top management.

3.3 Integration of Employee Needs with Career Opportunities


It is required to align the needs and ambitions of the employees with career
opportunities in order to ensure right people will be available to meet the organizational manpower
requirements. Therefore, emphasis is placed on the training, on- and off-the-job, counselling and
coaching by supervisor, and planned rotation in positions of fluctuating functions and in different
locations. The process is pursued further with the help of periodic performance appraisals. Training
and counselling will be a wasteful exercise if the employee does not make progress along his career
path (Risha, n.d.)

Two important techniques in this stage are:.

a) Management by objectives (MBO)


b) Career counselling

3.3.1 Management by Objectives (MBO)


Under ‘management by objectives’, the employee sets his development goals and
also an action plan to achieve those goals. Steps are taken by the line managers to integrate personal
goals with the organizational goals (Risha, n.d.).

3.3.2 Career Counselling


In the case of counselling, the manager discusses the strengths and weaknesses of
the employee. This helps the employee to identify areas of development so that he/she can meet
future chal-lenges of his job (Risha, n.d.)

3.4 Regular Monitoring


It is required to regularly monitor the progress of the employee towards his career
development plans and see that the provision is being provided to develop those career plans. If
there is an incongruity, steps should be taken to recast work as necessary to confirm that career
development plans are met. In situations where career opportunities are not available due to
influence of technology and economic factors, the organization should redesign jobs or make
career shifts (Risha, n.d.).

12
CAREER DEVELOPMENT

4 Career Development Strategies


There is two critical strategies for career development which are:

a) Individual strategies
b) Organizational strategies

4.1 Individual Strategies


Usually, organizations put efforts to develop their employees. However, employees
should also take initiatives to develop their own careers. Career is the result of matching
individual’s goals with the organizational goals. Career development is a joint responsibility of an
employee and the organization. If an employee wants only the organization to develop his career,
the organization is likely to impose too much organizational control restricting the autonomy of
that employee. Therefore, it advised that you should be instrumental to manage your own career
(Risha, n.d.).

The self-management of your career will help you control your own vocation and
boost your independence. In career decisions, the individual is the only one having appropriate
information. He must be assertive to express his feelings so that he does not get deceived with
regard to his career. The steps involved in successful self-management of career are:

a) Do it now
b) Know yourself
c) Analyze career opportunities
d) Establish career goal
e) Obtain feedback
f) Manage your career

4.1.1. Do it Now
Do not delay in taking the decisions that have an impact on your career. Do not wait
for an auspicious day to come; for completing an academic activity, for settling down, and for any
other reasons. Pursuing a career will always have uncertainties. Self-management helps to reduce
the uncertainties (Risha, n.d.).

13
CAREER DEVELOPMENT

4.1.2. Know Yourself


First thing you have to know is your strengths and weaknesses. You must know how others see
you; view your behavioral pattern, and opinions they possess. You must have the ear to hear what
others are telling about you (Risha, n.d.).

4.1.3. Analyze Career Opportunities


Try and examine the sources of career opportunities. There are many sources of
information concerning occupations and career opportunities. You may also collect information
from some of your friends or relatives who keep themselves informed. Spend few hours browsing
the internet to determine what potential employers are seeking (Risha, n.d.).

4.1.4. Establish Career Goals


In the previous steps, we discussed that you should not delay decisions related to your career, you
need to know yourself, and you must analyze career opportunities. Putting it all together, now you
should develop your specific career goals. These goals must be SMART, and may be for short or
long term (Risha, n.d.).

4.1.4.1. SMART Goals


Goals are part of every attribute of business/life and afford a sense of direction,
motivation, a clear focus, and clarify importance. By setting goals for yourself, you are providing
yourself with a target to aim for. A SMART goal is used to help guide goal setting. SMART is an

Specific Measurable Achievable Realistic Timely

•Who is involved •How •Do I have the •Is the goal •Does my goal

•What do I want to •How do I know if capabilities to within reach? •By when do you

acronym that stands for Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Realistic, and Timely. Therefore, a

14
CAREER DEVELOPMENT

SMART goal incorporates all of these criteria to help focus your efforts and increase the chances
of achieving that goal (Corporate Finance Institute, n.d.).

4.1.5. Obtain Feedback


Feedback from relevant people help one correct his errors. You are required to think
and plan how you will gather feedbacks from others with regard to your self-analysis and current
career planning (Risha, n.d.).

4.1.6. Manage Your Career


This is not just implementing your plan, it is an ongoing process. Evaluating and
modifying career goals and plans should be a continual process. You must be flexible while taking
decisions. You should not be tied up completely with a particularly job, department, or
organization (Risha, n.d.).
Figure 2: SMART Goals

4.1.7. Self-Management
Self-assessment is the essential tool for self-management, self-assessment is
researching within you. Self-assessment aspects include: (Risha, n.d.)

a) Achievements
b) Skills and abilities
c) Personal values
d) Interests
e) Disabilities
f) Personal and family circumstances

4.2. Organizational Strategies


For the aim of developing human resources management, and career issues such as
reducing employees attritions, developing high-potential employees, preparing for managerial
positions, enhancing problem solving skills…, organizations spend efforts on designing programs
for their employees’ career development. Literatures suggest a number of specific drives that
organizations can take to make the career programs effective.

15
CAREER DEVELOPMENT

4.2.1. Human Resources Planning and Forecasting System


Considering and analyzing the targets of the organization, it should develop the job
specifications and recruit personnel of the required quantity and requisite quality. Companies need
to develop procedures to meet the target in fluctuating situations. They need to select the
appropriate forecasting technique to assess manpower needs.

Figure 3: Human Resources Planning Process

Management Study Guide defined human resources planning as “Human Resource Planning
(HRP) is the process of forecasting the future human resource requirements of the organization
and determining as to how the existing human resource capacity of the organization can be utilized
to fulfill these requirements” (Juneja, n.d.).

4.2.2. Improving Dissemination of Career Option Information


Organizations that have career development systems should share the information
with the employees because they always remain impatient to know more about their career and the
various available options. Organizations can share information through administrative manuals,

16
CAREER DEVELOPMENT

circulars, or other documents. By sharing information with employees, they can concentrate more
on their assigned work (Risha, n.d.).

4.2.3. Initial Career Counselling


Career counselling is a way of periodic performance appraisal, in addition to that,
counselling provides the opportunity to discuss career issues of employees, their goals and
opportunities available for developing in career (Risha, n.d.).

4.2.4. Support of Education and Training


Education and training systems support all the levels of employees to improve their
careers. First, prerequisites for further career growth are identified, and a training needs analysis
is conducted accordingly. Education is imparted for further employees’ growth (Risha, n.d.).

4.2.5. Job Posting


Employees seek to advance their careers. Employees need to be informed about
advancements in their careers, and organizations must provide all information regarding job
openings. Moreover, a job posting system helps organizations to attract talents, and this system
simulates employees of all levels in career planning and development (Risha, n.d.).

4.2.6. Special Assignments and Job Rotating


Doing the same job over a long period of time generates boredom. Employees should get
the opportunity of gaining new experience by way of performing special assignments and through
job rotation. These actions enable employees to learn new things first-hand and performing them
in different settings. Simultaneously, management can also ascertain the capacity and potential of
an employee to accept challenges, working in new settings, and with new people (Risha, n.d.).
4.2.7. Career Development Workshops
Considering the importance of employees’ career development, organizations are
arranging workshops and seminars as essential career development activities. These workshops
clearly indicate organizations’ concern for career development. However, the central assumption
of these workshops is the joint responsibility of individual and the organization for career
development (Risha, n.d.).
4.2.8. Flexible Rewards and Promotional System
Financial and non-financial rewards are used by ost of the organizations. The scope of
rewards and determining success criteria are limited due to limited thinking about them.
Nowadays, in the financial area, there is a growing trend toward giving employees a choice among
several forms of financial rewards.
17
CAREER DEVELOPMENT

In fact, organizations need to develop multiple ladders to consider promotion and rewards.
The promotional system should reflect the desires for spiral as well as linear careers. The
employees will definitely contribute their best to the organizations if flexible rewards and
promotional system are installed.

4.2.9. Development and Use of Assessment System


Many organizations use formal assessment and development system in order to evaluate potential
of employees to help them advance in their careers. Use of assessment systems have emerged as a
practice while selecting people. Later, organizations use assessment systems for career planning
as well.

5. Career Management Model


The career management model describes how people should manage their careers.
It consists of a few important components: (iEdu Note, n.d.)

Career
Exploration

Career
Awareness
Appraisal

Career
Management
Model
Goal
Feedback
Setting

Strategy Strategy
Implementation Development

Figure 4: Career Management Model

18
CAREER DEVELOPMENT

5.1. Career Exploration


Career exploration is the collection and analysis of career related information. The
employee should be aware of his own talent, interest, values, the importance of work in his life,
and about alternative jobs inside ad outside the organization. Career exploration advances
awareness.
There are two types of career exploration: self-exploration and environmental exploration.
Career exploration should enable an individual to become more fully aware of himself and his
environment (iEdu Note, n.d.).
5.1.1. Self-exploration
Self-exploration can provide a greater awareness of personal qualities. A person ought to
gain insight, for example, into his values, interests, and talents in both his work and non-work
lives.
Self-exploration provides information about strengths, weaknesses, talents and limitations
in order to let employees possess a deep understanding of their activities, whether they like it or
not. Self-awareness or self-assessment involves identifying and understanding one’s interests,
skills, and values as a foundation for career decision making, planning, and action.
Assessing and understanding your interests, skills, and values is the first step in identifying
the career path that is right for you.
There is a big difference between getting a job and pursuing a career you love. Research
has shown that individuals who choose careers that are closely aligned with their interests, skills,
and values tend to be more satisfied in their jobs and enjoy greater career success.
The self-assessment process is important, not only in pursuing your first internship or job
after college but also throughout your life as you move forward in your career (iEdu Note, n.d.).
5.1.2. Environmental Exploration
Environmental exploration includes types of occupation, types of industries, necessary
skills, and job alternatives within a given organization or alternative future jobs, experience needed
to move from current line position to a staff position, company alternatives and impact of family
on career decisions (iEdu Note, n.d.).
5.2. Awareness
As discussed before, exploration advances awareness. Awareness is an accurate perception
of person’s own qualities and characteristics of his relevant environment. Furthermore, awareness
is a central concept in career development. An exhaustive awareness of the self and the
environment allows a person to set his career goals and strategies of development (iEdu Note,
n.d.).
5.3. Goal Setting
People set career goals to maintain motivation, have something to look forward to and achieve
success. Effective career goals follow the SMART model that is explored previously (iEdu Note,
n.d.).

19
CAREER DEVELOPMENT

5.4. Strategy Development


A career strategy is a structured approach to developing capabilities, tools, and resources
in an organization, which will enable people to navigate their career ‘journey’ successfully. The
main strategies are, for example, competence in the present job, extended work involvement,
development of skills through training, opportunity development, development of supportive
relationships (mentors, sponsors, and peers), image building, and organizational politics (iEdu
Note, n.d.).
5.5. Strategy Implementation
“Strategy implementation put simply is the process that puts plans and strategies into action
to reach goals. The implementation of a reasonable strategy can produce progress toward the stated
career goal” (iEdu Note, n.d.).
5.6. Feedback
The implementation of a career strategy can provide useful feedback to the person. This
feedback can enable the person to appraise his career (iEdu Note, n.d.).
5.7. Career Appraisal
Whether the employee is progressing in his career toward his goal or not, the career strategy
implementation provides a useful feedback. This feedback, in conjunction with feedback from
other work and non-work sources, can allow a person to appraise his career. “Career appraisal is
the process by which people acquire and use career related feedback to determine whether their
goals and strategies are appropriate” (iEdu Note, n.d.).

6. Indicators of Effective Career Management


Greenhaus and Callanan have identified four indicators of effective career management.
They suggest that effective career management requires: (iEdu Note, n.d.)
a) Deep knowledge of the employee himself/herself and an accurate picture of the
environment.
b) The development of realistic goals that are compatible with one’s values, interest, abilities
and desired lifestyle,
c) The development and implementation of appropriate career strategies and
d) Continual feedback process that permits adaptation in the face of the changing situation.

7. Benefits of Career Development


Career development fosters open communication within the organization. This indorses the
open communication upon all organizational levels, the top managers and managers, and the
employees and managers. It is important to know that open communication is the root of any
organization

20
CAREER DEVELOPMENT

Career development also encourages better use of employee skills. It aids the organization
by means of allowing managers to be aware of their skills and competencies do that they can apply
them at a position or occupation where they’ll be able to have better results.
Career development offer employees and the managers with beneficial assistance with
regards to career decisions. Moreover, they acquire an opportunity to evaluate their skills and
competencies and discover their objectives and future plans.
Due to the fact that organizations need to retain their indispensable assets and prepare them
for top-level positions in the future, they have to understand their career expectations and
requirements from their organization, and this is accomplished by the aid of career development
plans.
Career development plans provides feedback. This is necessary to evaluate the success rate
of a particular policy employed and the initiatives taken by the organization. Correspondingly, this
also helps managers to provide feedback for employees’ performance (Management - Training
Guru, 2015).

8. Recommendations
According to what has been discussed above, here are some recommendations for organizations
and for employees.
8.1. For Organizations
It is recommended for organizations to:
a) Plan and implement for an effective career development strategy
b) Increase budgets for training programs and workshops related to career development
c) Develop a succession plan
d) Implement for job posting systems
e) Communicate all the above recommendations with employees
8.2. For Employees
It is also recommended for employees to:
a) Don’t wait organizations to develop your career path
b) Take the initiative to develop you skills and competencies
c) Stay up-to-date for any new features related to your field
d) Set SMART goals for you career path
9. Conclusion
As a conclusion, a career development strategy is essential for both organizations and employees,
it has several benefits for both as we discussed. It is challenging to do that effectively, but it can
be effective if all career management components are took into consideration when planning and
implementing the career development plan.

Government of Bukittinggi. This type of research is explanatory. The population of this study is
the employees of the City Government of Bukittinggi. The sample in this study were 200
respondents. The research instrument was a questionnaire distributed to respondents. Data
analysis using SEM AMOS. The results of this study career development, compensation, work
environment and satisfaction has a positive and signicant effect on work engagement in the
Employees of the City Government of Bukittinggi.

engagement

Introduction
The high work capacity of employees, it will bring changes in employee attitudes in increasing
attachment, both to the work and HR organizations that exist in the Bukittinggi City Government assume the
dual role that must be played, namely as a state servant and public servant. Engagement is a positive feeling
associated with a situation that is characterized by sincerity, dedication, and appreciation Schaufeli & Bakker
(2004). Based on interviews with the Head of the Competency Development and Guidance Apparatus
Development Agency BKPSDM Bukittinggi City Government, employees lack more enthusiasm in
completing work. Employees lack the initiative to provide the best in their work.The problem of lack of
employee work attachment to work in the Bukittinggi City Government there are several aspects that can
affect including career development opportunities (Bai & Liu, 2018), compensation (Venz, Pundt, &
Sonnentag, 2018), work environment (Yener, Yaldıran, & Ergun, 2012) and job satisfaction (De Simone,
Planta, & Cicotto, 2018).According to Hedger (2011) one effective way to maintain employee engagement is to
show them that they are appreciated. A good organization must have a good compensation management
system and be able to increase employee engagement in the organization (Sundaray, 2011). Compensation
can also be given in the form of recognition or appreciation for the work of employees and can increase work
attachment to the company (Ologbo & Sofian, 2013). Furthermore, a work environment full of fair
competition and mutual respect will increase work engagement at the company (Naidoo & Martins, 2014).
Research conducted by Chao, Schwartz, Milton, & Burge (2013) explains that an unhealthy and comfortable
environment will reduce the level of productivity and morale of employees so that it will affect
organizational goals. According to Abu-Shamaa, Al-Rabayah, & Khasawneh (2015) employee work
engagement reflects individual involvement and satisfaction, as well as enthusiasm in working. Employees
who have a high level of engagement will have a high emotional attachment to the organization, so that it
will have an effect in completing work and tend to have satisfying work quality (Bakker, Schaufeli, Leiter, &
Taris, 2008). So it can be said that work engagement can provide change for individuals, teams and
organizations (Margaretha & Saragih, 2013). This study aims to determine the effect of career development,
compensation, work environment, and satisfaction with work engagement

Work Engagement
Work engagement enables individuals to fully invest themselves in work by increasing self-efficacy and
positively impacting employee health which will increase employee support for the organization (Robertson-
smith & Markwick, 2009). Bakker, Albrecht, & Leiter (2011) state that the characteristics of employees have a
work attachment that is those who feel compelled to strive forward towards challenging goals, and always
want success.Empirical research by Weng (2013) & Zhou (2015), it can be concluded that in different work
environments, the positive impact between career growth and organizational commitment is supported by
empirical data. Research Li (2012); Son & Kim (2019); Bai & Liu (2018) and Liu, He, & Yu (2017) revealed that
career development has a significant effect on employee work engagement.Furthermore according to Hoole
& Hotz, 2016); Zacher, Chan, Bakker, & Demerouti (2015) revealed that compensation had a significant
positive effect on employees' attractiveness to their work. Further research conducted by Venz, Pundt, &
Sonnentag (2018) shows that by using compensation given to employees in the workplace, employees can
actively improve their own job attitudes. According to Tsaur, Hsu, & Lin (2019); Li, Li, & Wan (2019); Timms
et al. (2015) revealed that a good work environment will significantly positive effect on employee work
engagement, in this case employees will work to be enthusiastic, enterprising and feel proud of their work.
The results of research conducted by De Simone, Planta, & Cicotto, (2018); Penger & Èerne (2014); Memon,
Salleh, & Baharom (2016) and Yalabik, Rayton, & Rapti (2017) revealed that job satisfaction has a significant
positive relationship with work engagement.In this study, researchers used the dimensions of vigor,
dedication, and absorpsion used by Schaufeli & Bakker (2010).
Job Satisfaction
Job satisfaction is an important thing that can build organizational psychology so that it will affect
organizational behavior (Miao, Humphrey, & Qian, 2017). Schermerhorn, et al., (2011) states that job
satisfaction is the extent to which an individual feels positive or negative about work. Research conducted by
Shujaat, Sana, Aftab, & Ahmed (2013); and Ashraf (2019) which states that career development influences job
satisfaction. Furthermore, research conducted by Kong, Cheung, & Song (2012); Kong, Wang, & Fu (2015)
show that the dimensions of hotel career management (career assessment, career development, and career
training) influence career satisfaction. Research conducted by Judge, Piccolo, Podsakoff, Shaw, & Rich, (2010)
revealed that compensation has a positive influence on job satisfaction. Likewise, salary does not have a
significant effect on job satisfaction. While Che Ahmat, Arendt, & Russell (2019) conducted a study which
revealed that compensation had a positive and significant effect on job satisfaction.The results of this study
are in line with studies conducted by (Ashraf, 2019) and (Elechi, Lambert, & Otu, 2018) which state that the
work environment provides a porsive influence on job satisfaction. Further research conducted by
Pawirosumarto, Bachelor, & Gunawan (2017) shows that the work environment, leadership style and
organizational culture have a positive and significant influence on job satisfaction.
Career Development
Noe (2009) revealed that career development is a process in which employees progress through a series of
stages, each marked by a different set of developmental tasks, activities and relationships. According to
Mondy & Martocchio (2016) career development is a formal approach used by organizations to ensure that
people with the right qualifications and experience are available when needed.
Compensation
Rivai (2011) revealed that compensation is something that employees receive as a substitute for their
contribution to the company. Furthermore according to Dessler (2013) employee compensation includes all
forms of payment to employees and arising from their work. Compensation has two main components, direct
financial payments (wages, salaries, incentives, commissions, and bonuses) and indirect financial payments
(financial benefits such as insurance paid by employers and holidays). Further Lebuh according to Mondy &
Martocchio (2016) Compensation is the total of all rewards given to employees in return for their work. The
overall purpose of compensation is to attract, retain and motivate employees.

Work Environment
According to Edi Sutrisno (2009: 118) the work environment is the overall work facilities and
infrastructure that are around employees who are doing work that can affect the implementation of work
including the workplace, facilities, cleanliness, lighting, tranquility including work relationships between
people who are in place These people will be able to carry out their activities well, so that optimal results are
achieved, if one of them is supported by appropriate work environment conditions (Sedarmayanti 2011:
27).According to Razak, Ma'amor, & Hassan (2016) work environment refers to: (1) Helping employees
become the best, (2) Encouraging to express their creativity, (3) Work culture expresses creativity, (4) Helping
employees realize their potential, ( 5). Helping employees add skills, (6) Experts recognized in their fields. (7)
No salary complaints, (8) Caring for employees and their families, (9) Appreciated based on performance, (10)
Talking about fitness, health, and proper eating patterns, (11) A pleasant workplace, and (12) Safe and clean
workplace.
Framework and Hypotheses
Shujaat, Sana, Aftab, & Ahmed (2013); and Ashraf (2019) which states that career development influences
job satisfaction. Furthermore, research conducted by Kong, Cheung, & Song (2012) shows that the dimensions
of hotel career management (career assessment, career development, and career training) affect career
satisfaction. Furthermore the results of research conducted by Kong, Wang, & Fu (2015) states that it must
provide challenging career and job growth opportunities for their employees, because this is an important
motivating factor. Research conducted by Judge, Piccolo, Podsakoff, Shaw, & Rich, (2010) revealed that
compensation has a positive influence on job satisfaction. However, this study contradicts this research
conducted by Ezekiel Chinyio, Suresh, & Salis (2018) stating that benefits do not have a significant impact on
job satisfaction because they are not paid on a regular basis but relative to certain circumstances. Likewise,
salary does not have a significant effect on job satisfaction. While Che Ahmat, Arendt, & Russell (2019)
conducted a study which revealed that compensation had a positive and significant effect on job satisfaction.
The results of a study conducted by (Ashraf, 2019) which states that the work environment provides a
significant influence on job satisfaction. Furthermore, research conducted by (Elechi et al., 2018) is identifying
variables that predict job satisfaction for Nigerian correctional staff.
H1: Career development has a positive and significant effect on job satisfaction
H2: Compensation has a positive and significant effect on job satisfaction
H3:The work environment has a positive and significant effect on job satisfaction.

Weng's empirical research (2013); Zhou (2015); Li (2012) and Son & Kim (2019) who revealed that the
intrinsic function of the organization towards career growth is positively related to work engagement.
Further research conducted by Bai & Liu (2018) and Liu, He, & Yu (2017) revealed that career development
had a significant effect on employee engagement. Research conducted by Hoole & Hotz, (2016) concluded
that employee compensation benefits are positively related to employee work engagement (Hoole & Hotz,
2016). Furthermore, research conducted by Zacher, Chan, Bakker, & Demerouti (2015) revealed that
compensation had a significant positive effect on employees' attractiveness to their work. Further research
conducted by Venz, Pundt, & Sonnentag (2018) shows that by using compensation given to employees in the
workplace, employees can actively improve their own job attitudes. Tsaur, Hsu, & Lin (2019); Li, Li, & Wan
(2019) and Timms et al. (2015) revealed that a good work environment will significantly positive effect on
employee work engagement, in this case employees will work to be enthusiastic, enterprising and feel proud
of their work. Research conducted by De Simone, Planta, & Cicotto, (2018) shows that self efficacy, job
satisfaction, and job involvement have direct or indirect effects on nurses turnover intentions, and that job
satisfaction gives a stronger effect on intention to move. Furthermore Penger & Èerne (2014); Memon, Salleh,
& Baharom (2016) and Yalabik, Rayton, & Rapti (2017) revealed that job satisfaction has a significant positive
relationship with work engagement.

With career development carried out regularly in the Bukittinggi City Government, employees are proud
of the work that I do. Especially employees who get promotions in other fields, they make the job
challenging. Research by Weng (2013) & Zhou (2015) can be concluded that in different work environments, a
positive impact between career growth. Research conducted by Zacher, Chan, Bakker, & Demerouti (2015)
revealed that compensation had a significant positive effect on employees' attachment to their work.
Furthermore, research conducted by Li, Li, & Wan (2019) revealed that the work practice environment is
positively associated with higher work engagement and lower turnover intentions. Further research
conducted by Memon, Salleh, & Baharom (2016) and Yalabik, Rayton, & Rapti (2017) revealed that job
satisfaction has a significant positive relationship with work engagement.
H8: Career development significantly influences employee engagement through job satisfaction

Methods
This type of research is quantitative research with an empirical paradigm (Burrell & Morgan, 1992). Thus,
this study uses a deductive method based on previous studies. This study seeks to confirm previous findings
related to the relationship between variables.
Data collection and sample profiles
Field surveys use non-probability convenience sampling. This method is used in this study. Data was
collected in the City Government of Bukittinggi. A survey questionnaire was given to each employee. A total
of 200 questionnaires were distributed to employees. Measurements were taken to engrave the responses of
respondents using a Likert scale. Likert scale is a scale based on the sum of response attitudes in responding
to questions in response to questions relating to indicators of a concept or variable being measured, in this
case respondents are asked to agree or disagree with all statements (Sugiyono, 2010). Furthermore, the
answer to each item of the instrument is given a range of scores of 1 (one) which shows strongly disagree
(STS) to 5 (five) which shows strongly agree (SS). Among these, five extreme outliers were removed
(Mahalanobis' D (28)>63,892, p <.001), leaving 195 respondents for data analysis. Table 1 reports the

Data analysis
Before testing the proposed relationship, a CFA analysis is carried out to assess the measurement model
and to evaluate the reliability and build validity using AMOS 24. The next step, structural equation modeling
(SEM) is carried out to test the proposed model. Conceptual models are changed through a series of structural
model comparisons.

Results and Discussion


Measurement model results
Table 2 shows the details of the measurement model. The composite reliability values for all constructions
ranging from 0.814 to 0.982 exceed the minimum requirements of 0.600, suggested by Bagozzi and Yi (1988).
These results provide evidence of internal consistency between multi-measurement items for each construct.
Values for extracted average variants (AVE) are all greater than the recommended minimum standard, 50,
ensuring convergent validity. The AVE value is greater than the square of the correlation between the two
constructs, thus supporting discriminant validity (Fornell and Larcker, 1981).

Structural model results


The proposed model is tested through SEM. The initial SEM results show that the overall suitability of the
model is not entirely satisfactory (p <.001, RMSEA = 0.095, CFI = 0.797, NFI = 0.933). To improve

Based on the Tabel 4. shows that the hypothesis test results can be concluded that: The results of the first
hypothesis test show that career development has a positive and significant effect on job satisfaction. This
means that the better the career development of employees the more job satisfaction increases. So the
Hypothesis is accepted. The results of the second hypothesis test show that compensation has a positive and
significant effect on job satisfaction. This means that the better the compensation of employees the more job
satisfaction increases. So the Hypothesis is accepted. The results of the third hypothesis test show that the
work environment has a positive and significant effect on job satisfaction. This means that the better the work
environment the more job satisfaction increases. So the Hypothesis is accepted. The fourth hypothesis test
results show that compensation has a positive and significant effect on work engagement. This means that the
better the compensation of employees the more work engagement is increased. So the Hypothesis is accepted.
The results of the fifth hypothesis test show that career development has a positive and significant effect on
work engagement. This means that the better the career development of employees the more work
engagement is increased. So the Hypothesis is accepted. The sixth hypothesis test results show that the work
environment has a positive and significant effect on work engagement. This means that the better the work
environment, the more work engagement of employees increases. So the Hypothesis is accepted. The results
of the seventh hypothesis test indicate that employee job satisfaction has a positive and significant effect on
work engagement. This means that the better the job satisfaction of employees the more work engagement is
increased. So the Hypothesis is accepted.

Results and Discussion


The first hypothesis test results show that career development has a positive and significant effect on job
satisfaction. This means that the better the career development of employees the more job satisfaction
increases. So the Hypothesis is accepted. This can be seen from the career development that occurred in the
Bukittinggi Regional Government, as there is no ongoing career development. Career development for civil
servants is clearly regulated in staffing regulations. The pattern of civil servant career development is in the
form of education and training; promotion; and promotion of position.This research is in line with research
conducted by Shujaat, Sana, Aftab, & Ahmed (2013); and Ashraf (2019) which states that career development
influences job satisfaction. Furthermore, research conducted by Kong, Cheung, & Song (2012) shows that the
dimensions of hotel career management (career assessment, career development, and career training) affect
career satisfaction. Furthermore the results of research conducted by Kong, Wang, & Fu (2015) states that it
must provide challenging career and job growth opportunities for their employees, because this is an
important motivating factor. By providing career activities that are tailor made, so that they can meet career
expectations and increase employee job satisfaction.
The second hypothesis test results show that compensation has a positive and significant effect on job
satisfaction. This means that the better the compensation of employees the more job satisfaction increases.
When salaries and compensation are considered fair, based on work demands, individual skill levels, they
will work their best and ultimately satisfaction tends to occur. He further observed that employee
compensation could be a sensitive subject, and people became very passionate about compensation problems
in an organization. According to a survey report conducted by the Society for Human Resource Management
(2012), it was found that compensation and benefits are regularly among the three major factors that affect
employee job satisfaction. Although money is not a motivator, employees crave it because financial
independence is equated with personal freedom. Because that's what someone does with money that
motivates someone to work better. From this, it will be seen compensation and job satisfaction have a positive
relationship. This research is in line with research conducted by Judge, Piccolo, Podsakoff, Shaw, & Rich,
(2010) which revealed that compensation has a positive influence on job satisfaction. However, this study
contradicts this research conducted by Ezekiel Chinyio, Suresh, & Salis (2018) stating that benefits do not
have a significant impact on job satisfaction because they are not paid on a regular basis but relative to certain
circumstances. Likewise, salary does not have a significant effect on job satisfaction. While Che Ahmat,
Arendt, & Russell (2019) conducted a study which revealed that compensation had a positive and significant
effect on job satisfaction.
The results of the third hypothesis test show that the work environment has a positive and significant
effect on job satisfaction. This means that the better the work environment the more job satisfaction increases.
With these conditions encourage employees to work better and satisfied with what they receive, when
employees work in a good environment, they will be enthusiastic and in the end the tasks given will also give
satisfying results. More than that the work environment within the employee greatly influences his work
motivation, such as a comfortable work environment, the availability of work facilities, good relations
between employees in the form of being able to work well together and also a good relationship with the
leadership. If there is no harmony in the work environment and the lack of facilities will make employees
lazy and not motivated to do their jobs so the results will be disappointing.The results of this study are in line
with a study conducted by Ashraf (2019) which states that the work environment has a significant influence
on job satisfaction.

The fourth hypothesis test results show that compensation has a positive and significant effect on work
engagement. This means that the better the compensation of employees the more work engagement is
increased. Li's (2012) study found that good psychosocial safety perceptions had a positive impact on work
engagement. So employee career growth can increase employee awareness and self-development, thereby
increasing their work input. This research is also in line with research conducted by (Son & Kim, 2019) which
reveals that the intrinsic function of organizations towards career growth is positively related to work
engagement. In addition, employee perceptions of leaders as role models moderate the relationship between
work engagement and career commitment. Specifically, the mediating role of work involvement in the
relationship between the intrinsic function of organizational career growth and career commitment is
stronger when employees perceive their leaders as role models. Further research conducted by (Bai & Liu,
2018) and Liu, He, & Yu (2017) revealed that career development significantly affected employee engagement.
The fifth hypothesis test results show that career development has a positive and significant effect on
work engagement. This means that the better the career development of employees the more work
engagement is increased. Employees of the City Government of Bukittinggi consider that adequate
compensation is given when using good skills at work. According to Marjan J. Gorgievski (2013), it is also
important that when benefits can have positive and negative effects on employees. Like that, when the
benefits are right for them, it will be a good indicator of work engagement. When employees receive rewards
from their organization, they will feel obliged to respond with a higher level of involvement.This study is in
line with research conducted by Hoole & Hotz, (2016) concluded that employee compensation benefits are
positively related to employee work involvement (Hoole & Hotz, 2016). Furthermore, research conducted by
Zacher, Chan, Bakker, & Demerouti (2015); Venz, Pundt, & Sonnentag (2018) show that by using
compensation given to employees at work, employees can actively increase their own work engagement.
The sixth hypothesis test results show that the work environment has a positive and significant effect on
work engagement. This means that the better the work environment, the more work engagement of
employees increases. Through good working conditions, employees will work optimally, work diligently and
enthusiastically and become attached to the job. This research is in line with research conducted by Tsaur,
Hsu, & Lin (2019); Li, Li, & Wan (2019) and Timms et al. (2015) revealed that a good work environment will
significantly positive effect on employee work engagement, in this case employees will work to be
enthusiastic, enterprising and feel proud of their work.
The seventh hypothesis test results indicate that employee job satisfaction has a positive and significant
effect on work engagement. This means that the better the job satisfaction of employees the more work
engagement is increased. When employees get what they expect such as salaries, promotion opportunities,
benefits, working conditions, how organizational policies are implemented and good partners, employees
will work with enthusiasm, energy and enthusiasm. Work engagement such as excitement is considered
mental endurance and high energy levels at work, mental flexibility, making extra effort, and continuing even
when the task becomes difficult. This is also referred to as the physical component. Dedication, the emotional
component, is characterized by a sense of significance, enthusiasm, challenge and pride. Absorption, the
cognitive component, is characterized by being fully concentrated, happy, and accepted by work without
regard to time passing by (Schaufeli, 2014).The results of this study are in line with research conducted by De
Simone, Planta, & Cicotto, (2018); Penger & Èerne (2014); Memon, Salleh, & Baharom (2016) and Yalabik,
Rayton, & Rapti (2017) revealed that job satisfaction has a significant positive relationship with work
engagement.
The eighth hypothesis test results show that the work environment of employees has a positive and
significant effect on work engagement through job satisfaction. With career development carried out
regularly in the Bukittinggi City Government environment, employees are proud of the work they do.
Further research conducted by Bai & Liu (2018) and Liu, He, & Yu (2017) revealed that career development
had a significant effect on employee engagement.

The ninth hypothesis test results indicate that employee compensation has a positive and significant effect
on work engagement through employee job satisfaction.Employees realize that compensation has been
arranged in such a way by the government both direct compensation such as salary and performance
allowances as well as indirect compensation such as BPJS, pensioners, and official travel. Likewise the
government has provided non-financial compensation to employees such as promotion opportunities, and
other awards. But to get the compensation the employee must try to work better, and reach the target. To
achieve these targets employees always work full of energy and enthusiasm. Sometimes employees are
willing to work overtime without feeling the time has passed. research conducted by Venz, Pundt, &
Sonnentag (2018) shows that by using compensation given to employees in the workplace, employees can
actively improve their own job attitudes.
The tenth hypothesis test results indicate that employee career development has a positive and significant
effect on work engagement through job satisfaction. The comfort of working environment conditions can be a
factor in the creation of work engagement.This study is in line with research conducted by Tsaur, Hsu, & Lin
(2019) revealed that pleasure at work has a significant positive effect on psychological capital. Further
research conducted by Timms et al. (2015) revealed that a good work environment will significantly positive
effect on employee work engagement, in this case employees will work to be enthusiastic, enterprising and
feel proud of their work.

Conclusion
Based on the results of the hypothesis test it can be concluded that: Career development, compensation
and work environment have a positive and significant effect on job satisfaction. This means that the better
career development, compensation, work environment, the more job satisfaction increases. Career
development, compensation, satisfaction, and work environment have a positive and significant effect on
work engagement. This means that the better career development, compensation, work environment and
employee satisfaction increases work engagement.

INTRODUCTION

Bali is one of the tourist destinations in the world, so many domestic and foreign visitors are on vacation in Bali. To provide the
best service, several factors are affecting one of them is the human resources who work in the hotel. Employees are one of the
resources owned by a company to achieve its goals. One such hotel is the Inna Sindhu Beach Hotel & Resort which is part of the
Inna Group Hotel. Inna Sindhu Beach Hotel & Resort has 61 rooms. The hotel is located near the beach, so one of its attractions
is the view that is closer to the beach. One of the services can be seen from the side of its employees. Employee performance plays
an important role in achieving the objectives of an organization, including the hospitality sector, to support these activities, it is
necessary to support employees who are competent in their fields. Based on interviews with Human Capital Manager at Inna
Sindhu Beach Hotel & Resort, said that there were indeed some problems in the performance of employees at the hotel, namely
the delay in guest services, where employees are less alert and quick in providing services for guests. This sometimes happens
during high season with a large number of guests, employees do not provide services swiftly. Also, there is one complaint from
guests regarding room cleanliness, where there are employees who are lacking in the procedure in cleaning the room. These things
affect the performance of employees at the hotel.

As for the results of interviews with three employees, said that during high season with more than a usual number of visitors
resulting in delays in serving guests, because of this the guests complained. The employees sometimes feel bored, tired, and lack
of rest when doing more tasks than usual, sometimes employees in the restaurant must work full time. So employees are less
focused on working and result in a decrease in the performance of these employees.

Performance is a result achieved by someone in carrying out tasks assigned to him based on skill, experience, and sincerity, and
time (Hasibuan, 2001: 34). The employees usually have a good performance, if the company makes efforts to meet the needs of
its employees through career development and employee job satisfaction. Employee career development in research Cedaryana et
al., (2018) is a formal and continuous effort with a focus on increasing and adding the abilities, skills, and expertise of an employee
so that changes in values, attitudes and motivation. Research by Nasution et al. (2018) revealed that career development affects
the performance of employees who work in companies, the better the career development system that can be implemented it is
expected that employee performance will also be greater. Higher performance is likely to emerge when the talents or competencies
of employees are consistent with their personal needs and organizational environment (Trivellasa et al., 2015). In a study by
Suyanto et al. (2018) shows that the higher the career development, the higher the employee's performance or the lower the career
development, the lower the employee's performance.

Career development influences efforts to improve better performance (Alfa, 2018). So career development does not merely mean
promotion to a higher position or position, but it is an encouragement or motivation to advance in working within an organization
if a person's career goes well-meaning an increase will affect employee performance. According to Khan et al. (2016) by giving
employees appropriate development and training programs can encourage employees to improve their skills and this will have an
impact on their work results. The right career development program can help employees improve their performance.

Clear career development will also affect employee job satisfaction. According to Sujaat et al. (2013) employee job satisfaction
depends on career development opportunities in the organization, by practicing all career development activities to increase
employee job satisfaction which ultimately leads to higher work efficiency and productivity. This study found high efforts by

management to achieve satisfaction and attract existing employees. The better the career development of employees, it tends to
increase employee satisfaction (Umar, 2015).

According to Jusuf, et al. (2016) the higher the employee is allowed to develop their career, the higher the employee satisfaction,
which in turn will have a better job impact. Employees will work well and have high job satisfaction when employees are placed
in positions that match their interests and abilities. According to Trivellasa, et al. (2015) an employee who has talent will reflect
his values, vision, knowledge, competencies, interests, and style while career success and job demands are shaped by the roles of
responsibilities and assigned tasks. So that a career development program can help employees to hone their talents and can improve
employee competence at work and can achieve career success in the company. Research by Sudiarditha et al. (2019) and Sofyan
et al., (2016) show that career development has a positive and significant influence on performance through job satisfaction. The
results of research by Kriswanti (2017) also found job satisfaction can mediate the effect of career development on employee
performance. However, a study by Diariani and Budiartha (2018) found that job satisfaction has not been able to mediate the
relationship between career development and employee performance in LPD of Tegal Adat Village.

Research that discusses the influence of career development on job satisfaction and employee performance has been done a lot but
there are still differences or research gaps from the results of previous research. Therefore this research is motivated by performance
problems at Inna Sindhu Beach Hotel & Resort and several previous studies so the research on the effect of career development
on employee performance through job satisfaction as a mediating variable..

LITERATURE REVIEW

Two-Factor Theory
Two-Factor Theory by Frederick Hertzberg namely a theory that links intrinsic factors with job satisfaction and connects extrinsic
factors with job dissatisfaction also called a theory of pure motivation (motivation-hygiene theory). According to Herzberg, the
factors that lead to job satisfaction are separate and different from the factors that lead to job dissatisfaction. Herzberg in Robbins
& Judge (2015: 130), categorizes conditions such as quality of supervision, salary, company policy, physical working conditions,
relationships with others, and job security as a pure factor (hygiene factor). When those factors are adequate, employees will not
be dissatisfied but also they will not be satisfied (or motivated). If you want to motivate employees for their work, Hertzberg
suggests an emphasis on factors related to the job itself or with results that can be directly obtained from the job, such as career
opportunities, personal growth opportunities, recognition, responsibilities, and achievements.

Employee performance
Performance (work performance) is the quality and quantity of work achieved by an employee in carrying out his duties by the
responsibilities given to him (Mangkunegara, 2013: 67).

Job satisfaction
According to Handoko (2014: 193) job satisfaction is a pleasant or unpleasant emotional state with which employees view their
work. Job satisfaction reflects one's feelings for their work. Hasibuan (2001: 202) states that job satisfaction is an emotional attitude
that is fun and loves work. This attitude is reflected by work morals, discipline, and work performance.

Career development
Careers are all jobs or positions that are handled or held during one's work-life (Handoko, 2014: 123). Career development is the
personal improvements made by someone to achieve a career plan. Career development according to Dessler (2014: 379) is defined
as a series of lifelong activities (such as workshops) that contribute to the exploration, formation, success, and fulfillment of one's
career.

HYPOTHESES

H1: Career development has a positive and significant effect on job satisfaction
H2: Career development has a positive and significant effect on employee performance.
H3: Job satisfaction has a positive and significant effect on employee performance.
H4: Job satisfaction can mediate the influence of career development on employee performance positively and significantly.

RESEARCH METHODS

This research uses a quantitative approach in the form of associative. This study discusses how the influence of career development
on employee performance through job satisfaction variables. The population in this study were all employees of Inna Sindhu Beach
Hotel & Resort in 2020, amounting to 61 people and taken all for the census. So the sample used in this study is saturated because
it uses all employees in the company. Data collection methods used in this study were interviews and questionnaires. There are
two analytical techniques used in this study, namely descriptive statistics and inferential statistics. The Sobel test is used to test the
mediating role of job satisfaction (M) on the effect of career development (X) on employee performance (Y).

The Sobel test is used by testing the strength of the indirect effect of career development variables (X) on employee performance
variables (Y) through job satisfaction variables (M). The Sobel test is formulated with the following equation and can be calculated
using the Microsoft Excel 2010 application. If the Z calculation value is greater than 1.96 (with a 95 percent confidence level), the
mediator variable is assessed to significantly mediate the relationship between endogenous variables and exogenous variables.

Effect of Career Development on Job Satisfaction


Based on the analysis of the effect of career development on job satisfaction shows that career development variables have a
positive and significant effect on job satisfaction. This means that the better the company manages employee career development,
it will increase job satisfaction felt by employees in the company. Career development that is managed by the company fairly will
make employees feel valued and satisfied with their work.

The results of this study are in line with the results of previous studies conducted by Oseanita et al. (2017) at PT. PLN (Persero)
Malang shows that career development has a significant effect on job satisfaction, which means that the better career development
provided by the company will result in better and higher job satisfaction. Cedaryana et al. (2018) in his research found that career
development had a positive and significant effect on job satisfaction. Research by Sudiardhita, et al. (2019) also found that career
development has a positive and significant effect on job satisfaction, where good career development can increase employee job
satisfaction. The results of the study by Umar (2015) showed that better career development felt by employees, it would increase
employee satisfaction as well. Work done because there is a feeling of satisfaction will make employees feel responsible,
disciplined, and proud as employees and feel proud and respectful to superiors.

Effect of Career Development on Employee Performance


Based on the analysis of the effect of career development on employee performance shows that career development variables have
a positive and significant effect on employee performance. These results indicate that better career development managed by the
company will improve employee performance. Career development plays a role in providing development in the ability of
employees to carry out work so that if employees can develop properly, it will always improve the performance of these employees.
The results of this study are consistent with the results of previous studies conducted by Cedaryana et al. (2018) shows that career
development has a positive and significant effect on employee performance. Dewi and Mudiartha (2016) support the statement
which states that career development has a positive and significant influence on performance. Good career development will affect
the performance of employees in carrying out their duties and responsibilities. This research is in line with research by Alfa (2018),
stating that career development influences efforts to improve better performance. Employees who have high opportunities to
improve their careers will stimulate motivation to work better to attain organizational goals.

Effect of Job Satisfaction on Employee Performance


Based on the analysis of the effect of job satisfaction on employee performance shows that job satisfaction variables have a positive
and significant effect on employee performance. This means that the higher job satisfaction felt by employees, the employee's
performance increases. Employees who are satisfied with their work will always do their jobs well, resulting in high employee
performance.

The results of this study are in line with research conducted by Fadhil (2018) showing that finding that job satisfaction has a
positive and significant effect on employee performance. According to Laan, et al (2016) shows that job satisfaction is one of the
factors that play an important role in determining the level of performance of an employee, where the higher employee job
satisfaction, the higher the performance. Research conducted by Nurcahyani and Adnyani (2016) at PT. Sinar Sosro Bali Factory
also found that job satisfaction has a positive and significant effect on employee performance. Research by Shmailan (2016) also
revealed that satisfied employees had better performance and contributed to the overall success of an organization. The same results
also found in research by Pranita (2017) also show that job satisfaction has a positive and significant effect on employee
performance, where employees who have high job satisfaction tend to give better work results compared to employees with low
job satisfaction levels.

Effect of Career Development on Employee Performance Through Job Satisfaction as a Mediation Variable
Based on the Sobel test results showed that job satisfaction mediates the influence of career development positively and
significantly on employee performance at Inna Sindhu Beach Hotel & Resort thus in the fourth hypothesis this study was accepted.
This means that job satisfaction can partially mediate the effect of career development on job satisfaction. So the job satisfaction
variable as a job satisfaction variable contributes to several relationships between career development and employee performance.

This means that good career development can increase employee job satisfaction which can further improve employee
performance. So with a high level of job satisfaction, it will be able to increase the influence of career development on employee
performance.

The results of this study are in line with research by Kriswanti (2017) who found job satisfaction can mediate the effect of career
development on employee performance. Similar results were also found in the study of Meitisari et al. (2018) shows that job
satisfaction as a partial mediation influences career development on employee performance. Research by Sofyan et al. (2016) found
theoretical findings that show that there is a direct and significant positive effect of career development on performance through
job satisfaction. So that it can be said that their employees are satisfied with what they get from the company, if employees are
satisfied it can always foster morale in themselves so that employee performance will be by what the company wants.

CONCLUSSION AND SUGGESTION

Based on the results of the discussion of research that has been done, the following conclusions can be drawn: Career development
has a positive and significant effect on employee job satisfaction at Inna Sindhu Beach Hotel & Resort. This means the better the
career development of employees, it will increase job satisfaction. Career development has a positive and significant effect on
employee performance at Inna Sindhu Beach Hotel & Resort. This means that the better management of employee career
development, it will improve employee performance. Job satisfaction has a positive and significant effect on employee performance
at Inna Sindhu Beach Hotel & Resort. This means that the higher job satisfaction, it will improve employee performance. Job
satisfaction can mediate the influence of career development on employee performance. This means that with high job satisfaction
can strengthen the influence of career development on employee performance at Inna Sindhu Beach Hotel & Resort.

Suggestions that can be given based on the conclusions obtained from the results of the study are as follows:For the management
of Inna Sindhu Beach Hotel & Resort, it is expected that the career development system in the company needs to be managed
better because there are still employees who are less satisfied with career development in the company. This can be done by
providing transparent information in terms of promotional opportunities in the company to all employees. It is recommended that
the company can review it for the provision of salary received by the employee so that it can be balanced with the workload that
the employee bears. In addition to a career, employees also need compensation by their workload at the company. The company
management is expected to be able to further enhance the provision of training and competency development to employees because
there are still some employees who are lacking in receiving work instructions quickly and still lacking in completing work on time.
So with the right training and development program in the future, it will always be able to improve the performance of employees.

1. INTRODUCTION

An organization requires good management in accommodating its needs to live and develop. The
university is an educational service provider institution. Faculty and faculty and several study
programs do not escape the obligation to manage their human resources properly, precisely, and
optimally. Even as an institution engaged in the service sector, the central role of human resources
plays an important role. Job satisfaction achieved by individuals affects all aspects of the institution,
from customer satisfaction to productivity. Individual motivation to excel at work is related to
perceived job satisfaction. Motivation will affect work behavior and performance. Motivated
individuals will achieve job satisfaction. In turn, this job satisfaction will affect performance so that it
will be able to provide an optimal contribution to the institution (Susanti et al., 2019). According to
the Law of the Republic of Indonesia number 14 of 2005 concerning teachers and lecturers, lecturers
are professional educators of scientists with the main task of transforming, developing, and
disseminating science, technology, and art through education, research, and research and community
service (Kusuma et al., 2018). The role of lecturers has a significant position, namely to transfer
knowledge and transfer values for educational institutions. Therefore, the achievements achieved by
lecturers will provide added value for the institution. But this needs to be supported by the lecturers'
satisfaction, such as providing services and rewards that can motivate lecturers, and maximum
working environment conditions will provide smoothness in the work process. Job satisfaction, in
general, is an assessment or reflection of workers' feelings towards work which will be seen in the
positive attitude of workers towards their work environment. The impact of job satisfaction needs to
be monitored by linking it to the output it produces, such as productivity, turnover, work
performance, and absenteeism (Rina et al., 2017). Based on published data from the ministry of

research, technology, and higher education (2018), the number of universities in Indonesia in 2019
reached 4,621, both public and private. The total number of higher education institutions in South
Sulawesi province is 261 and is divided by form, 29 universities, nine institutes, 134 high schools, 15
polytechnics, 72 academies, and two community academies. The total number of private universities
in South Sulawesi is 206 universities.
The increasing demands of students and the community regarding higher education services must
be followed by increasing the capacity of human resources in carrying out their functions and
responsibilities. However, a general phenomenon shows that private universities cannot be responsive
and proactive to these developments. In providing services to customers, it seems that they are not
severe. Motivational factors and the work environment play a significant role in creating job
satisfaction for lecturers. The motivation in question is internal motivation, namely feedback from
superiors and what achievements are made will get appreciation. External motivation is by giving
rewards every year to lecturers, such as providing salary increases for each group adjusted to applicable
regulations and attention from friends and superiors. According to Ardito et al (2019), motives are
factors that cause individuals to behave or behave in a certain way. Sahinidis & Bouris (2008); Santos-
Vijande et al (2021) stated that motivating factors (job, achievement, recognition, responsibility, and
career advancement) can increase lecturer job satisfaction.
Along with the high needs of life, there is a need for adjustments to the provision of remuneration.
The income of private lecturers in Makassar is very dependent on the policies or regulations of the
university. In addition, Aryee et al (2016); Santos-Vijande et al (2021) suggests that work motivation
is a condition that encourages the individual's desire to carry out certain activities to achieve his
desires. The motivation in a person is a force that will manifest a behavior in achieving self-satisfaction
in a specific type of activity, and the direction is positive by leading to the object being the goal. The
phenomenon that occurs is that several private universities in Makassar provide a higher basic salary
than the basic salary of lecturers of the state civil apparatus. However, some private universities still
offer lower wages than the basic salary of lecturers of the state civil apparatus. This is following the
opinion of Kusuma et al (2018); Mappamiring & Putra (2021), referring to Dubin's theory (1988)
which states that basically, the provision of salaries and bonuses (incentives) is a stimulus that causes
activities to take place, maintaining activities so that they lead directly to one goal that is better than
another. A salary or bonus is an incentive or attraction deliberately given to employees to aim to build,
maintain, and strengthen and direct their attitudes or behavior to a goal to be achieved. Private
lecturers and state civil servants have the opportunity to get available allowances. Lecturers also get
additional salaries through allowances for lecturers who have academic positions. According to
Presidential Decree No. 65 of 2007 regarding lecturer allowances, lecturers will get a different Rp
375,000 for expert assistants, Rp 700,000 for lectors, Rp 900,000 for head lectors, and Rp 1,350,000
for professors. Lecturers at private universities will receive a certification allowance if they have an
educator certificate. This allowance will be adjusted to lecturers' income in the state civil apparatus
even though the payment of private lecturers on campus is lower. The certification allowance will be
paid one time of basic salary following the class system. The budgets usually range from IDR
2,700,000 to IDR 3,000,000.
The work environment can be achieved by other factors supporting lecturer satisfaction, namely a
conducive work environment with adequate facilities and infrastructure. In general, the Management
study program has decent standards. However, some problems are still related to the main facilities,
namely proper building capacity such as a 4-story building but still not having an elevator so that
lecturers sometimes feel tired, especially lecturers who are over 50 years old. Improvement because the
size is not following the capacity of the existing lecturers and other facilities such as air conditioning in
the room which sometimes does not function properly because it does not match the room's capacity.
Following the research conducted by Arianto (2013); Scaduto et al (2008), the work environment
dramatically influences personal pride and their work. Good work facilities and layout will increase
employee productivity. The work environment or conditions are all physical aspects of work, work
psychology, and work regulations that can affect job satisfaction and work productivity (Demirkaya
et al., 2011; Yu, 2014). Empirical facts in the field show that in L2Dikti Region IX, some certified
lecturers have not demonstrated an increase in teaching performance. For example, they do not have

teaching preparation, are indisciplined in teaching, and are less productive in making teaching
materials and textbooks. Several lecturers have been certified through observation but do not have
teaching preparations such as syllabus, lecture program units, teaching scenarios. Data from L2Dikti
in 2017 shows that almost 50 percent of certified lecturers still have not completed textbooks
according to learning needs. Martoyo (2000) states that managing human resources in an organization
creates job satisfaction of members of the organization concerned, which will further improve
performance.
Sikora & Ferris (2014); Suong et al (2019) state that job satisfaction is a positive feeling in a job,
which is the impact or result of evaluating various aspects of the job. Job satisfaction is an assessment
and attitude of a person or employee towards his work. It relates to the work environment, type of
work, relationships between co-workers, and social relations at work. Cook & Wall (1980); Haerani et
al (2020) states that the more aspects of the position following the individual's wishes and value
system adopted, the higher the level of satisfaction obtained. Vice versa, the more elements of the
work that are not following the desires and value system adopted by the individual, the lower the level
of satisfaction obtained. In addition, Bell & Sheridan (2020) states that job satisfaction can be a
driving factor for increasing employee performance, which will improve organizational performance.
According to Scaduto et al (2008), the work environment and work motivation positively and
significantly affected job satisfaction. Employees who do not get job satisfaction will never reach
psychological maturity, resulting in frustration, low morale, fatigue and boredom, unstable emotions,
doing activities that have nothing to do with the work to be done, etc. Rodrigo & Palacios (2021)
explained that high motivation and a supportive work environment would increase teacher job
satisfaction. In addition, employees who get job satisfaction perform better than employees who do
not contact job satisfaction. Based on that, the research hypothesis is 1) work motivation has a
significant effect on lecturer job satisfaction and 2) work environment has a significant effect on
lecturer job satisfaction. The aims of this study are 1) to analyze the effect of work motivation in
increasing the job satisfaction of lecturers in management study programs at private universities in
Makassar. 2) to analyze the effects of the work environment in increasing job satisfaction of lecturers
in management study programs at private universities in Makassar.

2. Literature Review

The work environment in a company is essential for management to pays attention to. Although
the work environment does not carry out the production process in a company, the work
environment directly influences the employees who carry out the process production. The work
environment is an atmosphere where employees carry out activities every day. A conducive work
environment provides a sense of security and allows employees to work optimally. If the employee
likes the work environment where he works, the employee will feel at home at work, carrying out his
activities to effectively work time. On the other hand, an inadequate work environment will reduce
employee performance. Some experts define the work environment as follows: According to Akob et
al (2020); Mohsen Farmahini Faharani (2014), the work environment is everything around employees
and can affect the performance of the tasks assigned to them, for example, with air conditioner (AC),
adequate lighting, etc. The work environment exists in the workers' setting that can affect themselves
in carrying out tasks such as temperature, humidity, ventilation, lighting, noise, cleanliness of the
workplace, and whether or not work equipment is adequate (Arianto, 2013). According to Akob et al
(2020) the work environment can be interpreted as the entire tooling faced, the surrounding
environment in which a person works, the work method, and the influence of his work both as
individuals as groups. Meanwhile, according to Lambert et al (2007), the work environment is an
environment where employees do their daily work. From some of the definitions above, it can be
concluded that environmental work is everything around the workers/employees that can affect
employee job satisfaction in carrying out their work so that maximum work results will be obtained.
Where in the work environment, there are work facilities that support employees in completing tasks.
Which is imposed on employees to order improve the work of employees in a company.

Theorists such as Maslow (1954), Herzberg et al. (1959), and Alderfer (1972) have sought to
explain employee motivation by holding on to the assumption that all individuals possess the same set
of needs and therefore prescribe the characteristics that ought to be present in the jobs. These
theorists have afforded opportunities to managers to design motivational schemes to influence
performance. What needs to be answered are the factors of motivation that drive the performance of
employees in the mining sectors in Indonesia. Various theorists explain motivation as a process
governing choices (Bhattacharyya, 2009; Chen et al., 2012; Deegan, 2002; Rodrigo & Palacios, 2021).
The motivation process may be internal or external to the individual that arouses enthusiasm and
persistence to pursue a particular course of action. The motivation process starts with a physiological
or psychological deficiency or needs that activates a behavior or a drive aimed at a goal (Bhattacharyya,
2009). According to Arnold et al. (1991), a needs-related model of motivation is initiated by the
conscious or unconscious recognition of unsatisfied needs. The needs create wants, which are desires
to achieve or obtain something. Goals are established, which is believed will satisfy the needs and
wants, and a behavior pathway is selected which is expected to achieve the goal (Amstrong, 2007;
Rodrigo & Palacios, 2021; Santos-Vijande et al., 2021). According to Harlie (2012), motivation is one
of the efforts made by a person to produce good performance and quality. Motivation is part of the
function of human resource management, namely integration, the most basic stimulant in the
embodiment, complex and continuous effort to increase the potential inherent in him.
Work motivation is the process that directs and sustains performance. Motivation encourages
employees internally to help them achieve specific goals or tasks assigned to them (Sohail et al., 2014).
Employees' work effectiveness can inspire them to work and bring more work motivation and
commitment to their work. This result can be interpreted as motivation to do an activity for it, to
experience pleasure and satisfaction in the action (Malik et al., 2011; Creasy & Carnes, 2017;
Şendoğdu et al., 2013; Stone & Dulebohn, 2013). Work motivation can be created by incentivizing
employees in the form of money that can be felt as supported people and have their place in
organizing. (Moynihan & Pandey, 2014) explained that emotional attachment and employee loyalty
are the most critical factors in work motivation. It can bind people to stay organized. According to
Latief et al. (2018), if a person has the high motivation, he will do the job to the maximum and vice
versa. If a person does not have motivation in working, then there will be no new things that he can
do to achieve the company's target. This motivation is essential because, with motivation, it is
expected that every individual employee will work hard and enthusiastically to achieve high work
productivity. Based on the explanation of the above theories, work motivation is an effort to
encourage oneself to do the work and channel all the expertise that is owned so that the company's
objectives can be achieved. According to Latief et al. (2018), if a person has the high motivation, he
will do the job to the maximum and vice versa. If a person does not have motivation in working, then
there will be no new things that he can do to achieve the company's target. This motivation is essential
because, with motivation, it is expected that every individual employee will work hard and
enthusiastically to achieve high work productivity. Based on the explanation of the above theories, it
can be drawn conclusions that work motivation is an effort to encourage oneself to do the work and
channel all the expertise owned so that the company's objectives can be achieved.

3. Research Method and Materials

3.1. Data Samples

The research technique uses explanatory research, namely, to examine and analyze the effect of
work motivation and work environment on lecturers' job satisfaction at private universities in the
management study program in Makassar. The research was conducted at eight universities from 15
universities with management study programs in Makassar. The study was carried out for 4 (four)
months, from February 2020 to May 2020. This study used primary data sources and secondary data.
The preliminary data in this study were obtained from respondents' answers through filling out a
questionnaire. The respondents of this study were management lecturers at a private university in
Makassar related to motivation, work environment, and job satisfaction. At the same time, secondary

data is in the form of information collected from internal or external organizations accessed via the
internet, document searches, and information publication. Secondary data sources in this study are
data from internet sources regarding private universities in Makassar and the currently happening
phenomena. The population in this study were management lecturers at a private university in
Makassar. This study takes a saturated sample that is taking all the existing population (Sugiyono,
2011). For details, see the following table 1.

3.2. Measurement

To test the hypothesis of this study, the method of multiple regression analysis was used to analyze
work motivation, work environment, and job satisfaction of lecturers at a private university in
Makassar. With the following formulation:

Y = a1+b1X1+b2X2+e

Info:
Y = Dependent variable (Lcturer job satisfaction)
a = coefficient constant
b = Regression coefficient
X1 = Independent variable (work motivation)
X2 = Independent variable (work environment)
e = Error

Work motivation (X1), which is defined as an impulse in human nature to act or move directly
through behavioral channels, leads to an agreed goal in the organization or company. The indicators
used to measure work motivation are, e.g., internal motivation (There is feedback on the results of his
work; Priority is the achievement of what he does). Second External motivation (Happy to get praise
for what he does. Work with wanting to get incentives; Work with the hope of getting attention from
friends and superiors). Third, the Work Environment (X2) can be interpreted as everything around
the lecturer that can affect job satisfaction in carrying out his work, both physical and non-physical.
So that maximum work results will be obtained, wherein there are work facilities that support
completing tasks assigned to lecturers to improve their performance. The indicators used to measure
the work environment are, for example, the physical work environment (Layout; Lecturer Room;
Facilities and Infrastructure). Fourth, non-physical work environment (smooth communication and
responsibility, and cooperation). Fifth, Job Satisfaction. Job Satisfaction (X3) is an emotional feeling
that is pleasant or unpleasant to see the results of their work. Where lecturers will show positive
behavior if they are satisfied and show negative behavior when they are dissatisfied with what they
expect is not following the reality. Indicators of job satisfaction are as follows, e.g., Characteristics of
Own Work (Work Itself), Superior Relations (Supervisor), Support of Colleagues (Co-Workers),
Promotion of Position (Promotion). Salary / Wages (Pay). All variables used in this study will be
measured using a Likert scale. According to Sugiyono (2011), the Likert scale is used to measure

attitudes, opinions, and perceptions of people about social phenomena. The measurement scale uses a
Likert scale (1 = strongly disagree, 2 = disagree, 3 = neutral, 4 = agree, 5 = strongly agree).

4. Results and Discussion

4.1. Statistical Result

The validity test was conducted to determine the validity and/or suitability of the
questionnaire/questionnaire that the researcher used to obtain data and respondents. Test the validity
of the Pearson Product Moment Correlation using the principle of correlating or connecting each
item score with the total score obtained in the study eg, if the value of r count > r table, then the
questionnaire is declared valid. If the value of r count < r table, then the questionnaire is declared
invalid.

Table 2: Validity Test Results


Variables Item t-calculated α t-calculated r-value Info

Y1 0.655
Y2 0.638
Y Y3 0.624
Y4 0.650
Y5 0.663

Table 2 shows that all statement items for the motivation variable (X1), work environment (X2),
and job satisfaction (Y) have a value of r-calculated > r-estimated (0.191) or are above the critical r of
0.30 so that it can be said that all statement items have valid. The greater the value of r arithmetic
indicates the greater the validity of a research instrument. To find out that the questionnaire used is
genuinely reliable as a data collection tool, it is necessary to test its reliability or level of trust. The
questionnaire is reliable if it can give relatively the same results at different times or give the right
results. In SPSS statistics, the reliability test is used to determine the consistency of the questionnaire
used by the researcher so that the questionnaire can be relied upon even though the research was
carried out repeatedly with the same questionnaire, through Cronbach's Alpha reliability test. The
basis for decision making in the reliability test is: If the value of > r-estimated, then the questionnaire
items used are declared reliable or consistent. Suppose the value of < r-estimated, then the
questionnaire items used are declared unreliable or inconsistent.

Table 3: Reliability Test Results

Table 3 shows that all of these variables have coefficient values Cronbach's Alpha more significant
than 0.6, so it can be said that the statement instrument used in this study is reliable or reliable. The F
test is used to show whether all the independent variables used in the study have a joint influence on

the dependent variable (Ghozali, 2011). The larger the value of R2, the greater the value F. However, if
the value of R2 = 1, then F becomes infinite. In addition, the statistical F test was used to test the
significance of R2.
Table 4: R2 Regression Results
Model R R Square Adj. R Square Sig. F

Table 4 shows that the adjusted R-squared value of 0.734 means that simultaneously the
motivation variable (X1) and the work environment (X2) have an effect of 73.4 percent on the job
satisfaction variable (Y) while the remaining 26.6 percent is influenced by other variables outside the
variable. independent. sig value. F of 0.000 indicates that the motivation variable (X1) and work
environment (X2) . The t-test serves to determine the effect of the independent variable partially on
the dependent variable. According to Ghozali (2013), this test was carried out by comparing the t-
calculated and t-estimated with an error rate of 5% (two-party test) or 1%. If t-calculated > t-estimated,
then the partial correlation coefficient found is significant (absolute) or can be generalized.

Table 5. Hypothesis Testing Results


Dependent Score t-
Hip Independent Variable p-value Info
Variable Coefficient statistics
H1 Motivation (X1) Job satisfaction 0.160 3.117 0.002 Support
H2 Work environment (X2) Job satisfaction 0.576 12.108 0.000 Support

Table 5 shows that partially the motivation and work environment variables have a significant
effect on job satisfaction. In addition, table 4 also shows the coefficient value of each variable, so the
regression model equation is as follows.
Y = 4.693 + 0.160 X1 + 0.576X2.

From the equation it can be interpreted as follows:


1. The constant value (a) = 4.693, meaning that job satisfaction (Y) will increase by 4.693
percent if there is no motivation and work environment (Y).
2. The value of the coefficient X1 (motivation) = 0.160, meaning that if there is an increase of 1
unit in the motivation variable and other variables are considered constant, there will be an
increase in the job satisfaction variable (Y) of 0.160 percent.
3. The value of the X2 coefficient (work environment) = 0.576, meaning that if there is an
increase of 1 unit in the work environment variable and other variables are considered
constant, there will be an increase in the job satisfaction variable (Y) of 0.576 percent.

4.2. Discussion

Work motivation has a significant effect on lecturer job satisfaction. This is indicated by the
significance t-value of 0.000, which is smaller than = 0.05, so it can be said that Ho is rejected. Work
motivation consists of appropriate feedback, the prestige of the work, support for what is being done,
the incentives given are relevant, and working with the hope of getting attention from friends and
superiors. This study indicates that motivation (X1) has a significant effect on job satisfaction (Y).
This is following the previous hypothesis where motivation has a substantial impact on job
satisfaction. This study supports the opinion of Cong & Van (2013), which states that motivation is a
set of factors that cause a person or employee to perform their duties mainly. Motivation can be one
of the most critical means in shaping job satisfaction and influencing employee performance. In
addition, this study supports Cong & Van (2013) opinion, which states that a person tends to work
with enthusiasm if satisfaction can be obtained from his work. Employee job satisfaction is the key to
driving morale, discipline, and employee performance in supporting company goals. In addition, in
Haerani et al (2020) explains that motivation is a mental condition that encourages a person to
achieve maximum performance. The first indicator of motivation is appropriate feedback. In this

study, the item for the proper feedback indicator puts forward how to build motivation with input
given by superiors in the organization. Relevant feedback from supervisors will increase the
motivation of lecturers in carrying out their duties and will provide satisfaction for lecturers because
of the appropriate feedback. The second indicator is the prestige of the work. Motivation can be built
from awards given to superiors and colleagues by providing an appreciation for the results of the job
done. The third indicator is the support of what is being done. In general, employees want to support
in everything that is done by superiors and fellow lecturers. Although not in the form of financial, the
support provided can encourage motivation for lecturers. The fourth indicator is the incentives
provided accordingly. Motivation from a financial perspective, according to empirical facts, can
inspire someone to do work. The fifth indicator is working with the hope of getting attention from
friends and superiors. The sense of pride in getting awards from supervisors and co-workers can
encourage someone to further improve their efforts at work due to praise or appreciation; this gives
satisfaction after carrying out their work.
The work environment has a significant influence on job satisfaction. This is indicated by the
significance t value of 0.000, which is smaller than = 0.05, so it can be said that Ho is rejected. The
work environment consists of a good layout, appropriate lecturer rooms, adequate facilities and
infrastructure, smooth communication, responsibility, and cooperation. This study indicates that the
work environment (X2) has a significant effect on job satisfaction (Y). This is following the previous
hypothesis where the work environment significantly affects job satisfaction. This study supports the
opinion of Schultz and Schultz (2010:405), stating that the work environment or conditions are all
aspects of physical work, work psychology, and work regulations that can affect job satisfaction and
work productivity. In addition, this study supports Sukanti et al. (2008) 's opinion that the work
environment has a significant influence on the level of personal pride and the work they do. The first
indicator in the work environment is good spatial planning. In this study, the item for this good
spatial indicator is that a suitable room arrangement will provide more benefits for lecturers in
carrying out activities to create an environment that can give enthusiasm to the work of lecturers. The
second indicator is the appropriate lecturer room. The lecturers' workspace greatly determines the
lecturer's confidence in working; sometimes, the lecturer is on campus for a long time. So that with a
particular room for individual lecturers, with the lecturer's room, it will create a comfortable and
pleasant environment for lecturers and spur enthusiasm for work. The third indicator is adequate
facilities and infrastructure. With proper facilities and infrastructure provided for lecturers by the
university, it will provide convenience in doing work. Lecturers need, e.g., printers, computers,
worship rooms, restrooms, parking lots, other facilities from campus that support the smooth
running of lecturers in carrying out teaching activities such as classrooms, LCD projectors, relatively
comfortable classroom desks, internet facilities, libraries, etc. The fourth indicator is fluency of
communication. Good and smooth communication between leaders and subordinates, between
fellow lecturers, and between administrative staff or campus staff. Communication supports the
creation of comfort in the work environment. The fifth indicator is responsibility and cooperation.
The duties carried out by lecturers should be of value to the lecturers concerned in carrying out their
duties; in addition, cooperation in carrying out work or teamwork between all academic elements on
campus will create a comfortable working environment and will provide opportunities for lecturers to
be more creative with comfortable working conditions and cooperation that is built together in
achieving organizational goals.

5. Conclusion

The results of this study indicate that motivation has a significant effect on job satisfaction. This
study proves that both theoretically and previous empirical studies explain that increasing work
motivation will increase the job satisfaction of lecturers at private universities in the city of Makassar.
According to empirical studies, motivation from a financial perspective can encourage someone to do
work. This can be a concern for universities and management study programs in the city of Makassar
to manage their human resource arrangements as well as possible to create job satisfaction. The results
of this study indicate that the work environment has a significant effect on job satisfaction. This study

proves that both theoretically and previous empirical studies explain that improving work
environment conditions will increase the job satisfaction of private university lecturers in the city of
Makassar. The most dominant variable in this study is the work environment. This factor has a more
significant influence than the influence of motivation on lecturer job satisfaction. The universities
and study programs must improve indicators in the work environment to create comfortable working
conditions so that it will increase the job satisfaction of private university lecturers in the city of
Makassar.

1. INTRODUCTION
Human resources (HR) is very important in a company, therefore every company
always strives to have quality HR, because without quality HR a company will not run
well between HR and the company must have a relationship that requires each other,
companies need employees quality and the company should pay attention to work aspects
related to human resources.
Basically, companies want to have employees who are smart, clever, and skilled,
able to work hard, have high enthusiasm. Companies need to pay attention to the problem
of employee motivation by observing, supervising, changing and directing employee
behavior in accordance with the stated goals company wants.
A person's various attitudes toward his work reflect his favorable and unfavorable

experiences at work and his hopes for future experiences. Fun work to do can be said that
the job gives satisfaction to the owner. The opposite event, dissatisfaction will be obtained
if a job is not fun to do.
Employee job satisfaction is influenced by the work environment, because a
conducive work environment will make employees feel comfortable and happy while at
work. Employees will feel more motivated to complete their tasks. A conducive work
environment can reduce employee fatigue after work and create employee job satisfaction.
Employees who have high work motivation will be more enthusiastic at work and
tend to be more satisfied with their work, so they will work better and achieve better results.
Conversely, people who are less interested in their work or lack high work motivation will
be dissatisfied with their work and the results produced will also be less than optimal. In
general, work motivation and job satisfaction have a reciprocal relationship. High work
motivation can increase job satisfaction, while high job satisfaction can increase work
motivation. High job satisfaction can improve a person's performance and increase work
productivity, and can reduce the turnover rate (employee resignation rate) in the company.
Therefore,
The work environment is one of the factors that can affect one's job satisfaction. A
good and comfortable work environment will make a person more comfortable and
comfortable at work, thereby increasing motivation and job satisfaction. Conversely, a
work environment that is not good or bad can reduce one's motivation and job satisfaction.
An uncomfortable work environment can cause stress and fatigue, which can reduce work
performance and productivity.
The work environment is everything that is around the workers that can influence
him. The existence of a comfortable work environment can provide encouragement to
work in earnest, so that it can provide work performance for achieving goals so that the
company will continue to progress in developing its business. Career development is
personal changes that a person makes to achieve a career plan (Baroroh, 2016)
Career development is needed to manage HR effectively and efficiently. From the
start when employees enter the company, it is better if an employee is able to plan his
career path while in the company, while the company's job is only to facilitate employees
and provide information on how an employee achieves his career goals, such as
determining certain requirements in taking a certain position.
Career development available to someone can affect the level of job satisfaction

that is felt. People who have the opportunity to develop and develop themselves in their
work will be more motivated and more satisfied at work, so they can improve their
performance and results. Rather, people those who do not have the opportunity to develop
in their work will be less motivated and less satisfied with their work, so that the
performance and results produced will also be less than optimal. Therefore, companies need
to provide fair and equitable career development opportunities for all employees in order
to increase employee job satisfaction.

2. THEORETICAL BASIS
2.1. Job satisfaction
Everyone who works expects to get satisfaction from his place of work. Basically job
satisfaction is an individual thing because each individual will have different levels of
satisfaction according to the values that apply to each individual. The more aspects of
work that are in accordance with individual wishes, the higher the level of satisfaction felt.
Wibowo (2010) job satisfaction is a general attitude towards a person's work, which shows
the difference between the amount of rewards they receive workers and the amount they
should receive. Job values are the goals that employees want to achieve in doing their jobs.
The expectations to be achieved are work values that are considered important by
individuals in meeting their basic needs. Basic needs are everything that workers expect
in return for the work they have done. So that the more aspects of needs that are fulfilled,
the higher the level of worker satisfaction. Arifin (2012) job satisfaction is how people
carry out work and its aspects.

2.2. Work motivation


Tirtayasa (2010) motivation is a process that encourages a person or work group from the
outside so that they want to carry out something that has been determined. Work
motivation itself is one of the factors that determine the high and low performance of an
employee. Motivation is also related to a person's psychological factors as a manifestation
of the relationship between attitudes, needs and satisfaction that occurs in humans.
Encouragement or motivation is important because with motivation it is expected that
every employee wants to work hard and enthusiastically to achieve high work
productivity. It can be concluded that motivation is the encouragement that makes a person
do the work he wants voluntarily without feeling forced.

2.3. Work environment


The work environment in a company is one of the things to pay attention to, even though
the work environment does not go through a production process within a company, the
work environment has a direct influence on the employees who carry out the production
process. A work environment that focuses on employees can improve performance.
Conversely, a bad work environment will reduce the work motivation of its employees.
Wuwungan (2017) work environment is everything that can influence him in carrying out
his duties. Aruan (2017) work environment is everything that is around employees and
can affect them in carrying out their duties, for example by having an air conditioner (AC)
with adequate lighting and so on. Astuti (2019) all the tools and materials encountered,
the environment the environment in which a person works, his work methods and work
arrangements both as individuals and as a group. It can be concluded that the work
environment can be expected to create a conducive work environment so that employees
can work comfortably and enthusiastically carry out their duties.

2.4. Career Development


The new paradigm of the career system in the organization places idealism and fighting
spirit to realize the idea, competence, mastery of information, technology and mastery of
foreign languages as the main keys for individuals to success (Alwi, 2001). According to
Simamora (2006) Career is a sequence of activities related to work. The aim of all career
development programs is to match the needs and goals of employees with career
opportunities available in the company today and in the future.

2.5. Hypothesis Development


2.5.1. The relationship between work motivation and job satisfaction
It is important for employees to have motivation at work. Employees who have high
motivation, will get satisfaction at work. Ahmed et al (2010) conducted research at four
universities in Punjab related to how motivation influences job satisfaction there. As a
result, motivation shows a significant influence on job satisfaction. Kaihatu (2010)
conducted research on the same variables at the Pakuwon Food Festival Surabaya. The
results show that motivation has a significant effect on job satisfaction. Chatterjee (2015)
also obtained similar results between motivation variables on job satisfaction. Based on
this explanation, the following hypothesis is proposed:
THE IMPACT OF WORK MOTIVATION, WORK ENVIRONMENT, AND CAREER DEVELOPMENT
ON EMPLOYEE JOB SATISFACTION

H1: Work motivation has an effect on job satisfaction


2.2.2. The relationship between work environment and job satisfaction
The results of the study from Simbolon (2017) on work environment variables and
employee performance show that the work environment has a significant positive effect
on employee performance. Kusmaningtyas' research (2014) also shows that the work
environment is proven to have a significant influence on employee performance. Referring
to the description above, the hypothesis developed in this study is as follows:
H2: The work environment influences job satisfaction

2.2.3. Relationship between career development and job satisfaction


The results of Oduma's research (2014) stated that career development affects employee
performance. employee researcher. From the start when an employee enters the company,
it is better for an employee to be able to plan his career path while in the company, while
the company's job is only to facilitate employees and provide information on how an
employee achieves his career goals, such as determining certain requirements in taking a
particular position. Based on this explanation, the following hypothesis is proposed:
H3: Career development has an effect on job satisfaction

4.5. Discussion
4.5.1. The Effect of Work Motivation on Employee Job Satisfaction
Based on the results of testing the first hypothesis that research shows work motivation has
a positive and significant effect on employee job satisfaction. The results of this study are
in line with previous research, which explains that work motivation influences employee
performance, through compensation, so that employees feel satisfied at work (Ekhsan,
2019). Work motivation is a very important factor in determining one's level of job
satisfaction. High work motivation can increase job satisfaction because someone will be
more enthusiastic at work and tend to be more satisfied with their work. Conversely, people
who are less interested in their work or lack high work motivation will be dissatisfied with
their work and the results produced will also be less than optimal. Increasing work
motivation can be done in various ways, including giving awards or rewards to employees
who excel, increasing career opportunities and self-development for employees, and
creating a comfortable and conducive work environment to work. Thus, employee job
satisfaction will increase along with increased employee motivation.

4.5.2. The Influence of the Work Environment on Employee Job Satisfaction


Based on the results of testing the second hypothesis, research shows that the work
environment has a positive and significant effect on employee job satisfaction. This is in

line with the research conducted by Badrianto (2019), that the impact of the work
environment is able to provide comfort at work. Work environment is an important factor
that can affect one's job satisfaction. A good and comfortable work environment will make
a person more comfortable and comfortable at work, thereby increasing motivation and job
satisfaction. Conversely, a work environment that is not good or bad can reduce one's
motivation and job satisfaction. An uncomfortable work environment can cause stress and
fatigue, which can reduce work performance and productivity. To increase employee job
satisfaction, Companies need to pay attention to the work environment provided to
employees. The physical conditions of the work environment such as cleanliness, room
temperature, and ease of access must be considered so that employees can work
comfortably. Good co-workers who respect each other also need attention so that
employees can work in a harmonious atmosphere. A good work culture in the company
also needs attention, such as effective and open communication, as well as opportunities to
contribute and develop at work Good co-workers who respect each other also need attention
so that employees can work in a harmonious atmosphere. A good work culture in the
company also needs attention, such as effective and open communication, as well as
opportunities to contribute and develop at work Good co-workers who respect each other
also need attention so that employees can work in a harmonious atmosphere. A good work
culture in the company also needs attention, such as effective and open communication, as
well as opportunities to contribute and develop at work.

4.5.3. The Effect of Career Development on Job Satisfaction


Based on the results of testing the third hypothesis that research shows that career
development has a positive and significant effect on employee job satisfaction. The results of
this study are in line with research conducted by Akhmal (2018) that career development can
contribute to job satisfaction. Career development is a factor that can affect one's job
satisfaction. People who have opportunities to develop and develop themselves in their work
will be more motivated and more satisfied at work. Conversely, people who do not have the
opportunity to develop in their work will be less motivated and less satisfied with their jobs.
Increasing opportunities for career development can be done in various ways, including by
providing training and courses to improve employee competency, providing apprenticeship
and internship programs for employees who wish to develop themselves, and providing
opportunities to try different jobs so that employees can discover their interests and talents.
THE IMPACT OF WORK MOTIVATION, WORK ENVIRONMENT, AND CAREER DEVELOPMENT
ON EMPLOYEE JOB SATISFACTION

Thus, employee job satisfaction will increase along with the increase in career development
opportunities provided to employees.

5. CONCLUSION
It can be concluded that motivation, work environment, and career development are
very important and interrelated factors in determining employee satisfaction. High work
motivation can increase employee satisfaction because someone will be more enthusiastic
at work and tend to be more satisfied with their work. A good and comfortable work
environment can also affect employee satisfaction because employees will feel more at
home and comfortable at work, thereby increasing motivation and job satisfaction. Career
development available to employees can also affect employee satisfaction because
employees will be more motivated and more satisfied at work if they have the opportunity
to develop and develop themselves in their work. Therefore, companies need to pay
attention to these factors in order to increase employee satisfaction optimally. Companies
can take various ways to increase employee motivation, work environment, and career
development, including giving awards or rewards to employees who excel, increasing
career opportunities and self-development for employees, and creating a comfortable and
conducive work environment. Thus, employee satisfaction will increase and employee
performance will also increase optimally. increasing career opportunities and self-
development for employees, as well as creating a work environment that is comfortable and
conducive to work. Thus, employee satisfaction will increase and employee performance
will also increase optimally. increasing career opportunities and self-development for
employees, as well as creating a work environment that is comfortable and conducive to
work. Thus, employee satisfaction will increase and employee performance will also
increase optimally.

1. Introduction

Today's business development is growing rapidly and very dynamically, every organization strives to compete as well
as possible to be at the forefront by implementing various business strategies that are supported by an effective
management system.
Organizations are no longer seen as closed systems but organizations are open systems that must be able to respond
and accommodate various external changes quickly and efficiently. Every organization tries to achieve its goals by using all
of its human resources, so the goal of every human resource in the organization must be well maintained. In addition, human
resources in the organization are expected to possess the competencies, abilities and skills needed to carry out their duties.
This organization also requires human resources who have achievement motivation and a hard work ethic and no less
important is having a strong commitment to the organization. Thus, it is expected that organizational human resources can
make their best contribution to the organization (Wibowo, 2016).
It is understood together that the success of managing an organization is largely determined by the succeed in
managing the commitment of human resources. So that not infrequently, people appointed to occupy certain positions must
be those who have high commitment or loyalty to the organization (Busro, 2018). However, the above does not seem to be
seen as a whole because, the employee turnover rate that occurs is still quite high.
Every organization must have a culture that between one organization and another has its own unique side. Culture
represents agreed moral values and is made a guideline by each member of the organization to behave. Culture determines a
company's personality as a whole and has a strong influence on the behavior of its members (Sari and Witjaksono, 2013).
Organizational culture is the identity of an organization and at the same time is a deterrent against inappropriate
external cultural influences (Mulyadi, 2015). The implementation of the organizational culture is not fully effective, because
violations of company regulations still occur frequently. The formation and application of culture as expected by the
organization will be difficult to create if there are frequent changes of leaders, not to mention new leaders who have their
own views on culture in the previous organization and come from different cultural backgrounds from the location where
the organization operates.
Human resource management is very important for companies in managingand utilizing employees so that they can
function productively to achieve company goals (Mangkunegara, 2016).
Every company generally has all kinds of ways to improve their employees' job satisfaction even though the method
varies depending on the actual function of each company. This is done in an effort to improve employee satisfaction which is
expected to have an impact on company productivity (Ardana and Putra, 2016).
When a person feels satisfaction in working, of course he will try as much as possible with all the abilities he has to
complete his work assignments. Thus, productivity and work results of employees will increase optimally. Companies need
employees who are able to work better and faster, to get this job satisfaction of employees must be maintained and cared for
(Ardana and Putra, 2016).
The overall pattern of leader actions is defined as leadership style. The leadership style represents the skills and
attitudes of a leader.
Work environment is a place where an employee does the work that has been given. The work environment is
expected of course that can provide comfort for employees when carrying out work activities (Fitri&Nasution, 2016).
But this is still not fully felt by employees of PT. BintanBersatu Apparel because the work environment is still quite
hot, the tight supervision carried out by superiors (leaders and supervisors) makes workers feel uncomfortable, the
workload is quite high due to urgent work time to meet customer demand also creates inconvenience for employees in
carrying out work.

Organizational commitment, organizational culture, work environment and leadership style are also found at PT.
BintanBersatu Apparel Batam, these four things are an inseparable component in an organization which can ultimately
affect employee job satisfaction which will have an effect on the company's performance such as frequent changes in
employees and leaders in the organization.
The researcher identified the existence of problems related to job satisfaction for employees working at PT
BintanBersatu Apparel. With a total of 556 workers and production capacity that must reach the target of 350,000 pieces of
apparel each month, job satisfaction is an inseparable part for the realization of organizational goals.
As researchers know, PT. BintanBersatuBatam is one of the companies engaged in the garment sector, especially the
production of apparel in the city of Batam. At present, PT. BintanBersatu Apparel Batam is a strategic partner company for
well-known brands such as Adidas and Puma. High quality standards are highly expected by customers because the products
produced are export commodities for foreign markets, so the demand for competent human resources, high commitment to
achieving organizational goals is an absolute requirement for the survival of the organization and customer trust.
Based on the background above, it is realized that there are gaps and need to be examined. Therefore, researchers are
conducting research with the title "The Effect of Organizational Commitment, Organizational Culture, Work Environment,
and Leadership Style on Employee Satisfaction at PT. Bintan Bersatu Apparel Batam”.

company in maintaining the stability of the company's operations. (2) The implementation of an effective and sustainable
organizational culture is proven by it and this needs to be maintained and improved. (3) A conducive work environment at
PT. Bintan Bersatu Apparel needs to be maintained and improved so as to create a comfortable atmosphere in working for
all employees and a high sense of belonging to the company. (4) The application of the best leadership style is one that can
adjust to the needs and company. Professional management system support should the leadership be directed to democratic
leadership so that employees feel valued because they are involved in joint decision making but also continue to pay
attention to the authority limits of each party leader and subordinates. The leader must also continue to learn and practice
to improve his ability to become a role model that will later have a positive impact on increasing better productivity so that
employees can be accepted and followed without feeling forced. (5) To improve employee job satisfaction the company
should continue to routinely monitor the factors that might reduce employee job satisfaction and immediately improve so

organizational culture, work environment and leadership style. Further research is needed to find out other factors that can
affect employee job satisfaction. (7) Use more variables and wider population scope of the population in this study. The

influence of organizational commitment, organizational culture, work environment and leadership style on employee job
satisfaction.

Abstract: This study aims to determine how much influence organizational commitment and
organizational commitment and compensation as the independent variable (X) and job
satisfaction as an intervening variable (Z). The analytical method used in this research is the
path analysis model. Based on it can be concluded that organizational commitment has a
negative and significant effect on employee turnover intention at PT Intercom Padang (0.000
<0.05). Based on the results of testing the second hypothesis, it was found that compensation

The amount of work pressure due to high targets also resulted in an increase in
employee turnover rates during 2019. Not achieving the targets imposed prompted the
company to be forced to release a number of salespeople as a form of punishment. Based on
data obtained from the personnel department of PT Intercom, Padang Branch, it is known that
the development of employee turnover is shown in Figure 1. below:

Figure 1
Employee Turnover Development PT Intercom Padang
In Figure 1, it can be seen that the increase in employee turnover, especially the sales
department, is relatively high. It can be seen from the data every month that there are at least
2 employees who choose to resign. The graph shows that the highest turnover rate occurred in
December 2019. The high turnover rate certainly affects the psychological side of other
employees, besides the high turnover will create losses for the company, because recruiting
new employees certainly requires a large amount of money. Therefore, efforts to reduce the
turnover rate must be carried out by the management of PT Intercom, Padang Branch.
The high turnover rate starts from the desire to leave the company. This desire is
known as turnover intention. According to (Robbins and Judge, 2016) turnover intention is a
desire or desire that is stored in employees to leave the company they are currently working
for. When an employee has a high turnover intention in him, it will affect the employee's
contribution to the company, even the tendency for turnover intention will decrease employee
performance, so it is very important for the leadership to try to reduce the turnover intention
in the employee. According to (Setiawan and Harahap, 2016) the turnover intention that exists
in each employee is formed because of a number of variables that can influence it. These
variables include organizational commitment and compensation. In addition, according to
(Sentana et al., 2017), it is stated that turnover intention can also be influenced by job
satisfaction felt by employees. Each of the variables mentioned can encourage the increase
and decrease of turnover intention in each employee
According to (Robbins and Judge, 2016) turnover intention is a natural thing that
occurs in every employee, but it is very important for companies to try to reduce turnover
intentions that arise. One of the steps that can be used by company management is to increase
employee job satisfaction. (Mowday and Sutton, 2017) reveal that job satisfaction is a match
between the desires or expectations that employees expect with the reality they receive. The
higher the job satisfaction will create a stronger commitment in employees at work and can
reduce their desire to leave the company.

A number of previous research results discussing the effect of job satisfaction on turnover
intention have been carried out by (Susilo and Satrya, 2019) who found that job satisfaction
has a negative effect on employee turnover intention. Furthermore, the results of research
(Pawesti and Wikansari, 2017) found that high job satisfaction will reduce turnover intention
in employees. Different research results were obtained by (Waspodo et al., 2013) who found
that job satisfaction did not have a significant effect on employee turnover intention.
Mowday and Sutton, (2017) that organizational commitment has a negative effect on
employee turnover intention. Organizational commitment shows the promise or pledge that
employees have at the company where they work. The stronger the commitment of an
employee, which is seen in an affective, normative, and continuous commitment, the lower
the turnover intention in each employee. A number of previous research results have stated
that organizational commitment has a negative effect on employee turnover intention, some of
these studies were conducted by Natassia, (2017) which revealed that the stronger
organizational commitment that is in an employee will lead to weakening turnover intention
in employees. Similar results are also explained in research conducted by (Lauren, 2017) and
research conducted by (Pratama, 2018) who both found that strong organizational
commitment in each employee will make them more comfortable in the company so that
turnover intention to decline.
Besides organizational commitment, according to Rivai and Sagala, (2016) the
increase in turnover intention can be influenced by the compensation they receive.
Compensation shows remuneration or appreciation given by the company to employees.
When employees feel that the compensation they receive is below the wishes or expectations
they expect, their turnover intention will strengthen. This statement is also reinforced by a
number of research results conducted by a number of previous researchers, including (Sandy,
2019) who found compensation has a negative effect on employee turnover intention.
Furthermore, the results of research conducted by (Royan Zakaria, 2017) found that the
results of research were relatively different from previous researchers, namely that
compensation had no significant effect on employee turnover intention.

Hypothesis Development
The Effect of Organizational Commitment on Turnover Intention
Mowday and Sutton, (2017) that organizational commitment has a negative effect on
employee turnover intention. The results of Natassia's research (2017) which reveal that the
stronger organizational commitment that is in an employee will encourage the weakening of
turnover intention in employees. Similar results are also explained in research conducted by
(Lauren, 2017) and research conducted by (Pratama, 2018). ) who both find that strong
organizational commitment in each employee will make them more comfortable in the
company so that turnover intention is decreased. Based on the theoretical description and a
number of previous research results, the researcher proposes a hypothesis that will be proven
immediately, namely:
H1 Organizational commitment affects the turnover intention of Toyota Intercom
Padang employees.

The Effect of Compensation on Turnover Intention


According to Rivai and Sagala, (2016) increasing turnover intention can be influenced
by the compensation they receive. The results of the study (Sandy, 2019) found that

compensation has a negative effect on employee turnover intention. The results obtained can
be interpreted as more according to the amount of compensation received by the employees
expected, the comfort in working will be formed. The existence of high appreciation from the
company encourages a strong commitment in employees to encourage organizational
progress, thereby reducing their desire to leave the organization (turnover intention).
Furthermore, the results of research conducted by (Royan Zakaria, 2017) found that the
results of research were relatively different from previous researchers, namely that
compensation had no significant effect on employee turnover intention. Based on the
theoretical description and a number of previous research results, the researcher proposes a
hypothesis that will be proven immediately, namely:
H2 Compensation affects the turnover intention of Toyota Intercom Padang
employees.

Effect of Organizational Commitment on Job Satisfaction

effect on employee job satisfaction. Furthermore, the results of research conducted by
(Pratama, 2018) found that organizational commitment has a positive effect on employee job
satisfaction. This finding can be eaten that the higher the implementation of commitment
values in employees in the organization will encourage a decrease in turnover intention. Other
consistent research results were obtained by (Supiyanto, 2015) who found that organizational
commitment has a positive effect on employee job satisfaction. In accordance with a number
of descriptions of the results of previous research, the researcher proposes a hypothesis that
will be proven immediately, namely:

on employee job satisfaction. Sandy, (2019) found that compensation has a positive effect on
job satisfaction at PT IDX Indonesia. This result indicates that the higher the value of
financial and non-financial compensation received by employees will increase their
satisfaction at work. In line with a number of previous research results that have been
explained above, the researcher proposes a hypothesis that will soon be proven in this study,
namely:
H4 Compensation has an effect on job satisfaction of Toyota Intercom Padang
employees

Effect of Job Satisfaction on Turnover Intention

RESEARCH METHODS
Population and Sample
Population is a unit of attributes that work together to achieve one specific goal
(Sekaran, 2017). In this study, the population is all active employees of the sales section of PT
Intercom Padang, amounting to 58 people. Sanpel is part of the population that is considered
to be representative, in this study the samples are several employees of PT Intercom Padang.
The total number or sample size used is 58 people, or the number of population is the same as
the number of samples given the relatively small population size of sales employees.
Operational Definition and Variable Measurement
Dependent Variable
Turnover Intention
(Robbins and Judge, 2012) defines turnover intention as a desire or desire that arises in
a person to leave the job he is currently doing. In measuring intention turnover, indicators
adopted from (Choi et al., 2018) are used, namely the desire to find a new job, find out a
better new job, the ability to get a new job and the desire to immediately change jobs.
Independent Variable
Organizational Commitment
According to Mowday and Sutton, (2017) organizational commitment is a promise
that all members of the organization have to be loyal, carry out the rules until they are willing
to sacrifice for the progress and development of the organization. In measuring organizational
commitment, indicators are used from (Allen and Meyer, 1993) in Robbins and Judge, (2016)
which consist of three main indicators, namely: Affective commitment, Continuence
Commitment and Normative Commitment ( Normative Commitment)

Compensation
Compensation is the value of rewards or remuneration received by employees in
carrying out their duties and responsibilities at work. In measuring compensation, indicators
adapted from Arifandi et al (2015) are used, namely direct compensation, indirect
compensation and incentives.

Intervening Variables
It is a variable that mediates the influence of the independent variable on the
dependent variable and its nature can strengthen or weaken the influence of the independent
variable on the dependent variable.

Job satisfaction
According to Celluci, Anthony and David De Vries in Rivai and Sagala, (2016)
defines job satisfaction as all the conformity between the desires they have before carrying
out work with the reality they feel after working. Job satisfaction is measured using indicators
adopted from Celluci, Anthony and David De Vries in (Mas'ud, 2017), namely: satisfaction
with salaries, satisfaction with promotions, satisfaction with colleagues, satisfaction with
supervisors and satisfaction with the work itself.

variable without being controlled by other variables. In general, the calculation of the direct
effect in this study is:
a) Direct Impact Commitment Organizational onTurnover intention
PX1 Py = Pyx1 x Pyx1
= -0.638 x -0638
= 0.407
b) Direc Impact Compensation on Turnover intention
PX2 Py = Pyx2 x Pyx2

= 0.102
c) Direct Impact Job Satisfaction on Turnover intention
PZ Py = Pyxz1 x Pyz1
= -0.429 x -0.429
= 0.184

Indirect Influence
The indirect effect is to test the effect of the independent variable on the dependent
variable occupied by the intermediary or intervening variable. The results of the tests carried
out are as follows:
a) Indirect Effect Commitmen Organizational on Turnover intention Trough Job
Satisfaction
Px1 Z Py = - 0.638 x 0.948 x -0.057

Intervening Variable

commitment has an effect on turnover intention through satisfaction as an intervening
variable. The results obtained are in line with the results of Mowday and Sutton's (2017)

companies they work for. In addition, strong organizational commitment in employees can
also increase job satisfaction felt by employees. Natassia's research results, (2017) reveal that
the stronger organizational commitment is in an employee will encourage a weakening of
turnover intention, as well as the results of research by Lauren, (2017) and research conducted
by Pratama, (2018) which both found that strong organizational commitment in each
employee will make them more comfortable in the company. so that turnover intention is
decreased.
Effect of Compensation on Turnover Intention with Job Satisfaction as an Intervening
Variable
Based on the results of testing the seventh hypothesis, it was found that compensation
has an effect on turnover intention through job satisfaction as an intervening variable. The
findings obtained are in line with the results of research conducted by Sandy, (2019) which
found that compensation has a negative effect on turnover intention after going through job
satisfaction as an intervening variable. The results obtained can be interpreted as more
according to the amount of compensation received by the employees expected, then the
comfort in working will be formed. The existence of high appreciation from the company
encourages a strong commitment in employees to encourage organizational progress, thereby
reducing their desire to leave the organization (turnover intention) because in working every
employee will certainly feel satisfaction at work. Furthermore, the results of research
conducted by (Royan Zakaria, 2017) found that the results of research were relatively
different from previous researchers, namely that compensation did not have a significant
effect on employee turnover intention after going through job satisfaction as an intervening
variable.
