This study aims to analyze the influence of discipline and work motivation on employee productivity at the Panakkukang District Office, Makassar City. Employee productivity is a crucial factor in achieving institutional goals, and both discipline and motivation play significant roles in enhancing work performance. This research employs a quantitative approach, using primary data collected through questionnaires and observations of employees. The analysis includes validity and reliability tests, as well as hypothesis testing using the F-test, T-test, multiple linear regression, and the coefficient of determination (R²). A total of 60 respondents were selected using the Slovin sampling technique. The findings reveal that the discipline variable has a significant positive effect on work productivity, as indicated by the t-test results (t-calculated = 7.132 > t-table = 2.002). Similarly, work motivation also significantly influences work productivity (t-calculated = 19.614 > t-table = 2.002). The F-test results show that discipline and work motivation simultaneously impact work productivity (F-calculated = 824.481 > F-table = 3.16). The multiple linear regression analysis further confirms the positive impact, with a coefficient of determination (R²) of 96.5%, meaning that the independent variables account for 96.5% of the variation in work productivity, while the remaining 3.5% is influenced by other factors not examined in this study.Downloads
