Keywords:
employee quality, work-life balance, intrinsic motivation,, employee performance, generation Z.Abstract
This study aims to examine the effect of employee quality, work-life balance, and intrinsic motivation on the performance of Generation Z employees at CV. LANTABURA, both partially and simultaneously, and to identify the most dominant variable. A quantitative causal-associative approach was used with a saturated sample of 35 Generation Z employees, analyzed using multiple linear regression with SPSS. The results show that employee quality has a positive and significant effect on employee performance, while work-life balance and intrinsic motivation show no significant partial effect. Simultaneously, the three variables significantly affect performance, explaining 48.3 percent of its variance. Employee quality is the most dominant variable, suggesting that competency development should be prioritized in human resource strategy.
