Summary

Introduction

The success of an organization is influenced by the individual performance of its employees, an organization will seek to improve the performance of its employees in the hope that the company's goals can be achieved. Employee performance is what influences how much they contribute to the organization including output quantity, output quality, output period, workplace attendance and cooperative attitude, Mathis and Jackson, (2002). Azar and Shafighi, (2013:2) states that one reason for the success of employees and organizations is because of the high motivation factor and the concept of motivation used to explain abilities and work opportunities. Employee motivation can be influenced by factors of interest, salary received, need for security, interpersonal relationships and opportunities to work. If the need for this is met, there will be satisfaction and smoothness for improving employee performance
