Keywords:
Competence, Job Design, Employee Performance, Organizational Commitment, Commitment-Making OfficialsAbstract
This study examines the influence of competence and job design on employee performance, with organizational commitment as a mediating variable among Commitment-Making Officials at the Ministry of Immigration and Corrections in the Aceh and North Sumatra Regional Offices. The study was motivated by variations in work achievement, timeliness, and quality of task completion, as well as differences in competence and work structure among officials. A quantitative explanatory approach was employed, with data collected from 31 respondents using a questionnaire. The data were analyzed using path analysis to test both direct and indirect effects among variables. The study is expected to provide empirical evidence that competence and job design contribute to employee performance both directly and through organizational commitment. The findings are also expected to offer practical input for improving human resource management and work systems within public sector organizations.
