Keywords:
Competence, Motivation, Reward, Work Spirit, Employee PerformanceAbstract
This study aims to analyze the effect of competence, motivation, and reward on employee performance with work spirit as an intervening variable among Technical Service Employees of PT PLN (Persero) ULP Pangkalan Brandan. This research employs a quantitative approach using a survey method. The population and sample consist of 52 employees, and a census sampling technique is applied. Data were collected through questionnaires and analyzed using the Partial Least Square (PLS) method. The results indicate that competence has a positive and significant effect on employee performance and work spirit. Motivation does not have a significant effect on employee performance or work spirit. Reward has a significant effect on work spirit but does not significantly affect employee performance. Furthermore, work spirit has a positive and significant effect on employee performance. The indirect effect analysis shows that work spirit does not mediate the relationship between competence and motivation on employee performance, nor does it mediate the effect of reward on employee performance. This study concludes that employee performance is more strongly influenced by competence and work spirit than by motivation and reward.
