PENGARUH TAMBAHAN PENGHASILAN PEGAWAI DAN SARANA PRASARANA TERHADAP KINERJA PEGAWAI DENGAN MOTIVASI KERJA SEBAGAI VARIABEL INTERVENING

Abstract

The era of bureaucratic reform demands enhanced civil servant performance in delivering quality public services. Despite Employee Additional Income (Tambahan Penghasilan Pegawai/TPP) policy implementation since 2020, civil servant professionalism indices remain below national targets with fluctuating performance. This study analyzes the influence of TPP and Infrastructure on Employee Performance with Work Motivation as an intervening variable among civil servants in Mayangan District, Probolinggo City. This quantitative research employed explanatory survey method with path analysis on 30 civil servants using total sampling technique. Data were collected through Likert-scale structured questionnaires. Findings indicate TPP and Infrastructure positively and significantly influence Work Motivation (β=0.483 and β=0.462, p<0.05). Work Motivation significantly influences Performance (β=0.587, p<0.05), becoming the strongest predictor. Critical findings reveal TPP and Infrastructure have no direct influence on Performance but both significantly affect Performance indirectly through Work Motivation (β=0.283 and β=0.271, p<0.05), indicating full mediation. The model explains 79.4% of performance variance. This study confirms Work Motivation as the key mechanism linking organizational factors to performance, shifting civil servant performance management paradigm from structural focus to psychological emphasis.
