Analysis of Toxic Workplace, Compensation, and Workload on Employee Work Discipline at PT Master Ban Indonesia, Medan City
Abstract
Objective: This study aims to analyze the influence of a toxic workplace, compensation, and workload on employee work discipline at PT Master Ban Indonesia in Medan City. Methodology: The study employs a quantitative approach using a survey method. The population consists of 144 employees, with 59 respondents selected using the Slovin formula and simple random sampling. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and Likert-scale questionnaires, then analyzed using IBM SPSS Statistics 26 via validity, reliability, and classical assumption tests, multiple linear regression, t-tests, F-tests, and the coefficient of determination. Results: A toxic workplace has a significant negative effect on work discipline (regression value: -0.281; t-count: -2.893; significance value: 0.005). Compensation has a significant positive effect (regression value: 0.413; t-count: 4.231; significance value: <0.001). Workload has a significant positive effect (regression value: 0.222; t-count: 2.051; significance value: 0.047). Simultaneously, the three variables significantly influence work discipline (F-count: 17.943; significance value: <0.001), with an R² of 0.495. Limitations: The study was conducted at a single company and relied on respondent perception data; therefore, generalizations should be made with caution. Contribution: The study provides insights for managing the work environment, compensation systems, and workloads to enhance employee discipline.
