It utilized an explanatory quantitative approach with a causal type, involving a sample of 210 respondents. Data in this study were analyzed using SEM with the utilization of AMOS program. Results showed that the implementation of COVID-19 health protocols had a significant positive effect on nurses' work motivation.

Based on the results, hospitals are expected to implement improve the performance of nurses, particularly the quality of knowledge of nurses, and always motivate nurses to be responsible for their duties.
