Abstract

Small and medium enterprises are a real sector that has an important role in economic development. There are 64 million SMEs that contribute 97% of total employment and 60% of Indonesia’s GDP in 2021. Based on these data, SMEs have an important role in absorbing labour and economic development. However, in practice, SMEs have problems in terms of managerial and financial performance. This study uses an efficiency analysis statistical approach with a transcendental logarithmic profit efficiency model and multiple linear regression analysis to investigate the effect of performance efficiency and income levels as indicators of the quality of work of SMEs on employment. The results showed that the average efficiency score of UKM in Malang City was only 26%, which means that the performance of UKM in terms of efficiency is still very low. Furthermore, based on multiple regression analysis, it was found that the performance efficiency variable has a negative effect on the labour absorption variable. In contrast, the income level variable significantly positively affects employment. The results of this regression explain that efficient SMEs tend not to employ many workers, while SMEs with high-income levels tend to use a lot of workers.
