The Importance of the Work Environment, Workload and Performance of NCO and Enlisted Soldiers at Military-Naval Force Indonesia

Abstract

Maintaining national defence at sea is the main task of the Indonesian Navy, as efforts to ensure the interests of state defence are primarily determined by the ability of the unit to take advantage of the geographical conditions in its working area. The objectives to be achieved in this study are to describe the work environment, workload and performance. The study sample was Indonesian Navy soldiers at the Command Headquarters (Mako) of West Papua as many as 185 respondents. The sampling technique used is the Random Sampling Technique, a sample consisting of several randomly selected elements, where each element has the same opportunity to be selected. The study results show that the work environment reflected by co-workers' relationships has the highest value. The indicator of the availability of work facilities, and the lowest, is the relationship between subordinates and superiors in the Mako Koarmada III Indonesian National Military-Naval Force. The workload reflected by the standard of work has the highest value, and the lowest is the target that must be achieved at the Mako Koarmada III Indonesian National Military-Naval Force Sorong. The work environment can improve performance, such as the quality and quantity achieved by a soldier in carrying out his duties based on the responsibilities given to him, in this case, the relationship with colleagues who explain the perfection of the social conditions of the workplace, socialization between colleagues can create the performance of Indonesian Navy soldiers. However, The workload cannot directly improve performance in the Navy. This research is expected to contribute empirically to helpful information.
