Optimizing the Performance of Civil Servants in the Covid-19 Pandemic Era Through Discipline, Motivation and Work Culture in Indonesia

Abstract

The phenomenon of the global crisis due to the Covid-19 pandemic did not discourage employees in the Indramayu Regional Secretary's Indonesia environment to improve their performance. The factors causing the decline and increase in employee performance in this study are discipline, motivation and work culture. Quantitative approach and survey method on as many as 104 state civil servants (ASN) as respondents were determined to be a sample of 140 overall population. Descriptive and inferential statistics in this multivariate model are used as analytical tools to obtain measurable results. To strengthen the research results, both partial and simultaneous hypothesis tests are needed. The result is that work culture is partially the most dominant and effective influence on employee performance, compared to discipline and motivation, although simultaneously the effect remains significant. However, the researcher hopes that other external variables need to be added to improve the performance of employees at the Indramayu Regional Secretariat more perfectly.
