The Influence of Motivation, Compensation, and Workcommitment on Work Productivity and Their Impact on the Performance of the Aceh Selatan Environmental Department

This study aims to examine the motivation, compensation, and work commitment role in work productivity and their impact on the performance of the Environmental Department (DLH)in Aceh Selatan District, Indonesia. The population was all employees of that DLH, totaling 105 people consisting of 35 civil servants and 70 honorary employees. Due to the relatively small population, the sampling method used was the census method. Data was collected by distributing questionnaires to all respondents as measured using a Likert scale. The analytical tool used was PLS. The result proves that all the variables used in this study have not gone well; motivation, compensation, and work commitment affect work productivity; Motivation, compensation, work commitment, and work productivity affect DLH performance; Work productivity partially mediates the motivation and work commitment role in DLH performance; and Work productivity does not mediate the compensation role in DLH performance. These findings explain the DLH performance improvement model in the Aceh Selatan district is a function of increasing worker motivation, compensation, and work productivity.
