“…Based on the test results, supervision is not significant for employee work productivity at PDAM Tirta Silau Piasa, Asahan Regency. This research does not support the results of research conducted by Hemakumara (2020) and Anisya et al (2021), which stated that motivation significantly affects work productivity. Furthermore, this research supports the results of research (Putra and Mujiati, 2022;Bashir et al, 2020;Engidaw, 2021), which stated that motivation is not always able to increase employee morale.…”

“…Furthermore, motivation is a desire within a person that causes that person to take action, and of course, this will affect a person's performance (Riyanto et al, 2021). If a person's work motivation is good, then that person's performance will also be good, and vice versa (Hemakumara, 2020). Work motivation is considered to have a positive relationship between motivation and work productivity (Andreas, 2022).…”

Improving work productivity is crucial for a company's ability to build strong trust, particularly with its customers. This study aims to explore how social relationships impact employee work productivity by acting as a mediator between supervision and motivation. The research utilizes a quantitative method, specifically a structural equation modeling (SEM) based on SmartPLS, and was carried out at PDAM Tirta Silau Piasa in Asahan Regency, involving 185 employees. Data was collected through surveys using a Likert scale. Findings reveal that social relationships play an important role in linking supervision and motivation to the work productivity of employees at PDAM Tirta Silau Piasa Asahan Regency. The study suggests that supervision should maintain a focus on professionalism to ensure objective outcomes. Additionally, enhancing employee motivation should include not just the employees but also offering rewards such as vacation packages for families and scholarships for children's education to keep motivation levels high.

“…Similar positive relationships were found for universities in Turkey (Aydın, 2012), Ghana (Kwapong et al ., 2015) and Malaysia (Ghaffari et al ., 2017). Moreover, the positive relationship between employee motivation and job performance was confirmed for different industries and different countries in Asia, Africa and Europe (Hemakumara, 2020; Diamantidis and Chatzoglou, 2019) with certain national differences in the level of influence of particular motivational factors.…”

PurposeThe purpose of this study is to determine whether the pandemic affects the motivation and job satisfaction of university researchers as a whole and by their separate groups by gender, age, academic position (career stage) and degree.Design/methodology/approachThe authors studied French universities for changes in motivation and job satisfaction among researchers under the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. For this, two hypotheses were tested, using the one-way ANOVA parametric test and the Kruskal–Wallis nonparametric statistical test with the data collected during the in-depth interviews and surveys with university researchers from the Paris Diderot University and Jean Moulin University of Lyon III in 2019 and 2021.FindingsThere were found significant differences between changes in motivation and job satisfaction of respondent groups by gender, career stage and scientific degrees. All these differences in changes confirm hypothesis about the significant impact of the pandemic on certain motivators and elements of job satisfaction of various groups of university researchers. The study showed that pandemic restrictions and fears positively affect the motivation and job satisfaction of the younger generation of researchers and males, and negatively on the older generation and female researchers. During the pandemic, early-stage researchers are mostly unhappy only with the salary and the lack of teaching skills. While experienced and senior researchers do not have time to fulfill all their duties due to overload by a combination of different forms of teaching, many teaching hours, administrative duties and mastering new communication tools.Research limitations/implicationsThe results capture the selective impact of pandemic restrictions, its physical and mental effects on academic staff. Although only two universities in a single country were considered, the findings show the heterogeneity of the perception of new (pandemic) working conditions by different groups of university workers. If such heterogeneity is revealed in the example of two universities, then it is very likely to be observable also in broader studies.Practical implicationsThe results of this study can help university administrations, higher education regulators and national research agencies address the needs of all groups of researchers, alleviating the most acute restrictions and fears caused by the pandemic and providing the necessary incentives for relevant groups, e.g. higher salary, teaching school and awards for young researchers and a lower teaching loading for experienced and senior researchers.Originality/valueThis is the first study that define pandemic impact on motivation and job satisfaction of university researchers in France.

“…According to (Afandi and Khamidi, 2018), motivation is a desire that arises from within a person or individual because he is inspired, encouraged, and compelled to carry out activities with sincerity, pleasure, and earnestness so that the results of the activities carried out get good and quality results (Mahmoud et al, 2020). Previous research from (Irvan and Heryanto, 2019), (Hemakumara, 2020), (Santoso and Riyanto, 2020), and (Blegur and Amalia, 2019) confirmed that motivation has a significant positive effect on nurse performance. Based on this description, the hypothesis is formulated as follows:…”

Job satisfaction is quite an exciting and essential issue because it has greatly benefited the interests of the individual, the company, and the existing community. This study aims to analyze the performance of nurses who are influenced by workload and motivation through job satisfaction. This research was conducted on nurses at Undata Hospital, Palu, where 152 were used as respondents. Data collection techniques used questionnaires with Likert scale measurements and interval scales. The analytical method used is Partial Least Square (PLS) using WarpPLS 7.0 software. The results of this study indicate that motivation has a positive and significant effect on nurse performance. At the same time, the workload does not affect performance. Satisfaction does not affect performance. These results are expected to be considered by related parties in maintaining nurse performance.
