| Abstract: |
The research departs from findings in the field in the form of workloads that tend to be routine, minimal initiative, a less than optimal reward system, and a decrease in production tonnage that impacts company performance. The research uses a quantitative approach with a survey method. Data were collected through a five-point Likert scale questionnaire that has been tested for validity and reliability. The results of the study indicate that: (1) Initiative has a significant positive effect on achievement motivation; (2) Work discipline does not have a significant effect on achievement motivation; (3) Understanding job descriptions does not have a significant effect on achievement motivation; (4) Achievement motivation has a significant positive effect on employee performance; (5) Achievement motivation significantly mediates the relationship between initiative and employee performance; (6) Achievement motivation does not mediate the relationship between work discipline and employee performance; (7) Achievement motivation does not mediate the relationship between understanding job descriptions and employee performance.
