Abstract

The Personnel Agency and Human Resource Development of Padang City revealed that in 2017, only 3.3% of local government employees were able to achieve the minimum performance target of 100. This study aims to find out the influence of the work environment towards employee performance. The population in this study was local government employees of Padang City, while the sample was generated by using the Slovin method and Proportioned Stratified Sampling method. The sample size was 384 employees which were classified into class II, III, and IV. The questionnaires contain 35 questions about the physical work environment, non-physical work environment, and employee performance. The responses were processed by using the Structural Equation Model-Partial Least Square (SEM-PLS) method. Based on the alpha value of 0.05, the t-table value was 1.96. The t-statistic value of the physical work environment was 2.3426 and the t-statistic value of the non-physical work environment was 5.9694. Both of these t-statistic values were greater than the t-table value. Therefore, it can be concluded that there was a positive and significant influence of both physical work environment and non-physical work environment toward local government employee performance. The important factors on the physical work environment were cleanliness, air circulation, safety, and noise, while on the non-physical work environment it was the relationships between co-workers
