EFFECT OF ORGANIZATIONAL COMMITMENT ON JOB SATISFACTION OF SOUTH TAPANULI REGENCY DPRD SECRETARIAT EMPLOYEES

Abstract

Organizational commitment is the process by which organizational and individual goals become increasingly integrated. This research aims to determine the effect of organizational commitment on job satisfaction of South Tapanuli Regency DPRD Secretariat employees. The research carried out includes explanatory research. The population in this study were 15 employees within the Regional Representative Council of South Tapanuli Regency. Since the population was only 15 people, the author used the entire population as a sample, namely 15 people. The data collection technique used was a questionnaire and then analyzed using simple linear regression analysis to test hypotheses, correlation analysis and coefficient of determination. Based on the research results, it can be seen that the t test on the organizational commitment variable (X) obtained a calculated t of 3.891 with a significant t of 0.002. Because the calculated t is greater than the t table (3.891 > 0.690) and with a significant level of t smaller than 0.05 (0.002 < 0.05), it can be concluded that Hο is rejected and Ha is accepted. This shows that the organizational commitment variable partially influences job satisfaction. Because the alternative hypothesis is α = 0.05 or 5% and the Confidence Interval is 95%, which means the confidence level of 15 respondents states that organizational commitment has a significant effect on job satisfaction is 95%.
