Influence of Job Satisfaction and Compensation on Employee Performance: A Study of the Agricultural Training Center in Lampung

Abstract

This study investigates the impact of job satisfaction and compensation on employee performance at the Agricultural Training Center in Lampung. Through a comprehensive analysis using multiple linear regression and reliability tests, the research identifies job satisfaction as a key driver of enhanced employee performance. The findings reveal that job satisfaction significantly positively affects performance, indicating that improvements in work conditions, recognition, and career development are crucial. Compensation also has a positive impact on performance but is less influential compared to job satisfaction. Both factors together contribute significantly to performance, suggesting that organizations should adopt strategies addressing both job satisfaction and compensation to optimize employee outcomes. Future research is recommended to explore additional variables influencing performance and to investigate the long-term effects of job satisfaction and compensation, as well as to delve deeper into specific aspects of these factors to further enhance performance in public sector institutions.
