Abstract

Weaving workers in Bali are inherited from generation to generation. The ability to weave is obtained without special education/training. The ability to work weaving is obtained independently of the environment. In addition, the difficulty of finding other jobs causes workers to keep working. These two things are important factors in determining the performance of weaving workers in Bali. This study aims to analyze the effect of work competence (knowledge, skills, and attitudes) on employee commitment and performance, the effect of a work commitment on employee performance, and the role of work commitment in mediating the relationship of competence with employee performance. This research was conducted on 168 weaving workers in Bali. Data collection was carried out through distributing questionnaires to research respondents. The data collected was analyzed using the SmartPLS 3.0 program. The results found competencies consisting of knowledge, skills, and attitudes showed a significant positive effect on employee commitment and performance, work commitment also had a significant positive effect on performance. Work commitments also act as mediators of the relationship of competence with employee performance.

Summary

Introduction

Weaving craftsmen in Bali are hereditary works carried out by several Balinese people since the time of the kingdom, and until now some people still carry out this activity as one of their livelihoods, in addition to agriculture and trade. To further strengthen the existence of endek fabrics, as well as to motivate woven workers, the Bali regional government issued a policy that government employees and private employees on certain days must use clothing made from endek cloth. The existence of regulations that require all civil servants and private employees to wear traditional Balinese clothing, makes endek weaving craftsmen more eager to innovate and creativity in designing endek cloth ornaments. In an effort to create products that are always in demand by consumers, craftsmen must have the ability to make a variety of endek fabric products with various attractive ornaments. In order to be able to make endek fabrics with various attractive ornaments, every craftsman must have knowledge about various ornamental designs that are liked by the public. Craftsmen must have the ability (skill) to apply designs/ornaments to work on weaving. Skills and attitudes are included in competen­ cies (Hanafi & Ibrahim, 2018; Spencer & Spencer, 1993)
