Employee Performance, Prosocial Motivation, Self-efficacy, Work EngagementAbstract
This study aims to examine the impact of self-efficacy and prosocial motivation on employee performance in the logistics sector in Surakarta, with a particular focus on the mediating role of work engagement. This empirical quantitative study surveyed 110 respondents and used SEM-PLS to examine how self-efficacy and prosocial motivation directly affect work engagement and employee performance, including work engagement’s mediating role. The findings show that self-efficacy positively impacts both work engagement and employee performance. Likewise, prosocial motivation significantly boosts work engagement and performance. Work engagement stands out as the strongest predictor of performance and plays a key mediating role between self-efficacy, prosocial motivation, and performance. Therefore, strengthening employees’ confidence and prosocial motivation enhances work engagement, which ultimately improves performance in the fast-paced logistics sector.
