The effect of employee motivation and employee engagement on job performance mediated by job satisfaction

Abstract

This study aims to investigate the effect of employee motivation and employee engagement mediated by job satisfaction on job performance. This study employs explanatory research with a quantitative approach. The population in this study consisted of all employees of retail company X. The sampling technique used was saturated sampling, and the number of research samples was 150. Data was collected through surveys and documentation, and the instrument was tested using Likert scales. The data was analysed using Structural Equation Model Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS) modelling. The results of this study indicate that employee motivation can increase job performance, while employee engagement cannot increase job performance. Furthermore, the findings revealed that employee motivation can increase job satisfaction while employee engagement cannot. Job satisfaction can increase job performance. Job satisfaction can mediate the effect of employee motivation on job performance, but it cannot mediate the effect of employee engagement on job performance. According to the findings of this study, Company X should be able to provide motivational stimulus to employees by increasing salaries and work incentives, as well as increasing training and developing employee skills, so that workers can work effectively and efficiently.
