This study aims to examine the effect of Ethical Work Culture and Leadership on Employee Performance with Organizational Commitment as a mediating variable among employees at PLN UP2D Aceh. The study employed a quantitative approach, collecting data through questionnaires from 41 respondents. Data analysis was conducted using Partial Least Square – Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) to test both direct and indirect relationships among variables. The results indicate that ethical work culture has a positive and significant effect on both employee performance and organizational commitment, while leadership has a significant effect only on organizational commitment. Organizational commitment was proven to mediate the relationship between ethical work culture and leadership on employee performance. These findings emphasize the importance of implementing a strong work culture and effective leadership to enhance employee performance through the strengthening of organizational commitment.
