ABSTRACT
This study aims to analyze the effect of the work environment and employee competence on employee
performance at a seafood processing company in Probolinggo City, East Java. This study uses an
associative quantitative method, namely research that examines the causal relationship between the
independent variables, namely work environment (X1) and employee competency (X2) on the dependent
variable, namely employee performance (Y). The data sources used in this study used primary data obtained
through observation and the results of questionnaire answers that had been filled out by employees in the
production and quality control departments. The number of samples used in this study were 50 employees.
Data analysis in this study used SPSS software by conducting hypothesis testing consisting of a coefficient
of determination test (R-square) and a partial t test. Based on the results of the calculation analysis of the
first hypothesis (H1), which states that the work environment has a positive and significant effect on
employee performance, the t-count value is 19,845 which is greater than the t-table value, which is 1,677
and the significance value obtained is less than 0.05, which means that the work environment has a positive
and significant effect on employee performance, the results of the calculation analysis of the second
hypothesis (H2) which states that employee competence has a positive and significant effect on employee
performance, the t-count value of 14,471 is greater than the t-table value, which is 1,677 and the
significance value obtained is less than 0.05, which means that employee competency has a positive and
significant effect on employee performance, while the R-square value obtained is 0.897 which states that
the work environment and employee competency variables affect employee performance by 89.70% and the
remaining 10.30% is influenced by other variables.
