Analysis of the Influence of Work Compensation and Work Environment on Employee Performance Through Job Satisfaction as an Intervening Variable at PT Antam Geomin Unit, East Halmahera Nickel Exploration Team
Abstract
This study aims to analyze the effect of compensation and work environment on employee performance through job satisfaction as a mediating variable among employees of the Geological Work Unit of PT ANTAM Tbk Unit Geomin Tim Eksplorasi Nikel Halmahera Timur. The study is motivated by a decline in employee performance influenced by changes in company policies, compensation systems, and work environment conditions in the mining exploration industry, which is characterized by fieldwork with high-risk levels. This research employs a quantitative approach using a survey method. The sample consists of 100 employees, including prospectors and geologists, selected using a purposive sampling technique. Data were collected through a questionnaire distributed via Google Forms using a 1–5 Likert scale. The data were analyzed using the Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) method with SmartPLS-4. The results show that compensation and work environment have a positive and significant effect on job satisfaction. Job satisfaction also has a positive and significant effect on employee performance. In addition, the work environment has a positive and significant effect on employee performance, while compensation does not have a significant direct effect on employee performance. Furthermore, job satisfaction is proven to mediate the relationship between compensation, work environment, and employee performance. In conclusion, the work environment and job satisfaction are important factors in improving employee performance. Therefore, the company needs to create a conducive work environment and ensure an appropriate compensation system to enhance job satisfaction and optimize employee performance.
