Abstract


Abstract. This study aims to analyze the influence of job restructuring and psychological empowerment on innovative work behavior of police personnel, and to test the mediating role of psychological empowerment in the relationship. The background of this study is based on the demands of police institutional adaptation to digital transformation and changes in the complex work environment. The study was conducted on Cirebon Police personnel using quantitative methods and an explanatory research approach. The entire population of 201 personnel was sampled using the census technique, and the data was analyzed using the Partial Least Square (PLS) method. The results of the study indicate that job restructuring has a significant positive effect on psychological empowerment and innovative work behavior. Psychological empowerment also has a significant effect on innovative work behavior. In addition, psychological empowerment is proven to be a mediating variable that strengthens the effect of job restructuring on innovative work behavior. The R-square value of 70.3% for innovative work behavior and 62.6% for psychological empowerment indicates that the research model has strong explanatory power. The implications of these results emphasize the importance of flexible and individual-oriented job management and comprehensive psychological empowerment, to create adaptive and innovative police human resources. Thus, managerial strategies that support job crafting and psychological empowerment can be key instruments in strengthening the performance of police organizations in an era of change.
