- Abstract
Considering the critical role of health workers in handling COVID-19 cases, the Ministry of Health of The Republic of Indonesia provides monetary rewards in COVID-19 incentives for health service providers, including nurses who interact directly with COVID-19 patients. The incentives are expected to increase employee motivation during the unprecedented period caused by the pandemic. Bandung City Regional General Hospital is one of the COVID-19 referral hospitals in West Java, which also experienced the catastrophic impact caused by the spike in COVID-19 cases.
This study aims to analyze the effect of COVID-19 incentives on nurses’ work motivation in the Emergency Department (ED) of Bandung City Regional General Hospital. This research used a quantitative analytic design with a cross-sectional study. First, the research was conducted by filling out questionnaires by all ED nurses (30 respondents) at Bandung City Regional General Hospital. Then, hypothesis analysis was done by simple linear regression analysis with the SPSS 25 software program.
The results showed a positive influence of COVID-19 incentives on nurses’ work motivation in the Emergency Department of Bandung City Regional General Hospital. However, further research is needed with a larger sample, better research methods, and more diverse variables to determine other factors influencing nurses’ work motivation.
