Motivational Affecting the Work Performance Efficiency of Personnel in Local Administrative Organizations in Silalat District, Sisaket Province DOI:

Abstract

          Motivation is a crucial factor influencing the performance of personnel, particularly in local administrative organizations that play a significant role at the community level. This study aims to: (1) examine the level of work motivation, (2) examine the level of work performance, and (3) analyze the motivational factors that influence the work performance of personnel in local administrative organizations in Silalad District, Sisaket Province. The sample consisted of 181 personnel from four subdistrict administrative organizations, selected through stratified random sampling. The research instrument used for data collection was a questionnaire, and data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, correlation analysis, and multiple regression analysis. The results revealed that the overall level of work motivation was very high, especially in the areas of job achievement, nature of work, and responsibility. Likewise, the level of work performance was also found to be very high, particularly in terms of work quality and time management. Furthermore, the motivator factors that influenced work performance included responsibility and nature of work, while the hygiene factors included supervision and control, relationships with colleagues, and supervisors. The findings confirm that both intrinsic motivation (motivator factors) and extrinsic motivation (hygiene factors) serve as essential mechanisms in enhancing the work performance of personnel in local administrative organizations.
