The Relationship Between Job Performance Appraisal And Employee Motivation At The National Narcotics Agency (BNN) Of South Sulawesi Province

Abstract

Background: The progress of a country is greatly influenced by the quality of its human resources. In an organizational context, job performance appraisal is one of the important tools to evaluate employee performance and encourage work motivation. The National Narcotics Agency (BNN) of South Sulawesi Province, as a government agency with a strategic role in the prevention and eradication of drug abuse, requires motivated and high-performing employees. However, there are challenges in performance appraisal that can affect employee motivation, such as lack of follow-up on evaluation results and unfairness in appraisal. Objective: This study aims to analyze the effect of job performance appraisal on employee motivation at the National Narcotics Agency (BNN) of South Sulawesi Province. Work performance appraisal is measured through seven dimensions, namely work quantity, work quality, timeliness, effectiveness, independence, leadership, and experience. Methods: The method used was quantitative with a cross sectional study design, involving 79 employees as respondents selected using stratified random sampling technique. Data were collected through questionnaires and analyzed using the Spearman Rank Correlation Test. Results: The research findings show that overall work performance appraisal has a significant relationship with employee work motivation because all variables have a significant value less than the alpha value, namely <0.001<0.05 and the direction of the relationship is positive. Conclusion: overall the dimensions studied, namely work quality, work quantity, timeliness, effectiveness, independence, leadership, and experience are proven to have a positive and significant relationship with work motivation. This research is expected to provide input for BNN management in designing more objective work performance assessments and creating appreciation programs for employees who have good performance.
