The Effect of Workload and Compensation on Employee Productivity
Keywords:
workload, compensation, employee productivityAbstract
Organizations can succeed with the role of humans as a resource. Natural resources and human resources or employees are essential assets to run the wheels of production in a company, but human resources are considered to have a more important role in the company's operations. This is because human resources have a role as a driving factor and other production factors such as materials, machines, money and methods. Although with abundant natural resources, if the support of human resources is insufficient, the results will not be maximized. Work productivity is an indication of the success of human resource management in the company. This study aims to determine the effect of workload on productivity, and to determine the effect of compensation on productivity. The findings of this study confirm that the role that shapes work productivity comes from the contribution of workload and compensation. The two independent variables have been proven to significantly form work productivity variables.
