Analysis Of Rewards And Punishment On Employee Performance With Work Discipline As An Intervening Variable

This study aims to determine the effect of rewards and punishments on employee performance with work discipline as an intervening variable at PT Hurip Bintang Pratama. This study used a quantitative approach with a sample of 119 employees through a saturated sampling technique. Data were collected using a Likert scale questionnaire and analyzed using the SEM-PLS method using SmartPLS. The results showed that rewards and punishments have a positive and significant influence on employee performance, as well as a significant influence on work discipline. In addition, work discipline was also proven to have a positive and significant influence on employee performance. However, rewards did not show a significant influence on employee performance through work discipline, while punishment had a significant influence through that variable. Simultaneously, rewards and punishment were also proven to have a significant influence on employee performance through work discipline. This study contributes to strengthening the role of work discipline as a partial mediating variable, as well as providing practical implications for outsourcing service companies in managing human resources.
