The Effect of Motivation and Work Stress on Employee Performance at the Population and Civil Registration Office of Bekasi Regency

Abstract

Employee performance is essential to organizational goal achievement. This study analyzes the effects of work motivation and work stress on employee performance at the Population and Civil Registration Office of Bekasi Regency. A quantitative approach was used by distributing questionnaires to 78 employees. The data were analyzed using SPSS version 25 through validity and reliability tests, classical assumption tests, multiple linear regression, t-tests, an F-test, and the coefficient of determination. The results show that work motivation has a positive and significant partial effect on employee performance, whereas work stress has a positive coefficient but no statistically significant partial effect. Simultaneously, work motivation and work stress significantly affect employee performance. The coefficient of determination of 50.8% indicates that the model explains 50.8% of the variation in employee performance, while factors outside the study explain the remaining 49.2%. These results identify work motivation as the stronger explanatory factor for employee performance in the study setting.
