Abstract

This study examines the influence of compensation and work motivation on employee performance at PT. SiCepat Ekspres Manado, a courier company operating in Indonesia's eastern logistics corridor. The study addresses a practical problem: delivery errors above the company standard, an 18.5 percent employee turnover rate in 2023, and a leadership briefing schedule limited to once per week. A quantitative causal associative approach was used. Data were collected from all 40 employees of the company through a Likert scale questionnaire and analyzed with multiple linear regression using SPSS. The results show that compensation has no significant effect on employee performance, while work motivation has a positive and significant effect. Compensation and work motivation jointly explain 73.7 percent of the variance in employee performance, with an F value of 51.930 and a significance of 0.000. These findings indicate that work motivation, particularly recognition and responsibility, plays a stronger role than compensation in shaping employee performance in this context. The company is advised to increase leadership communication frequency and improve transparency in its incentive system to support better employee performance.
