Abstract

This study aims to analyze the influence of leadership, work culture, and work safety on employee performance at PT Pelindo Regional I Dumai Branch. The background of this research is based on the importance of synergy between effective leadership styles, the implementation of a strong work culture, and the consistent implementation of occupational safety in improving performance in the port industry sector which has a high level of risk. The research method used was a descriptive-verifiable quantitative approach with a population of 35 employees who were also sampled using the total sampling technique. Data was collected through a Likert scale questionnaire, then analyzed using multiple linear regression with the help of the SPSS program. The results of the study showed that partially, leadership and work culture had a positive and significant effect on employee performance, while work safety had no significant effect. Simultaneously, all three independent variables had a significant effect on employee performance, with a determination coefficient value of R² = 0.498, which suggests that 49.8% of employee performance variations can be explained by leadership, work culture, and work safety, while the rest are influenced by other factors outside the study.
