Abstract

Purpose: This study examines how quality of work life, job satisfaction, and psychological empowerment affect job performance among personnel of the West Papua Regional Police.

Research Methodology: A total of 273 respondents were selected from 863 employees using Slovin’s formula and random sampling method. Data were collected through a structured survey and analyzed using multiple regression analysis via SPSS.

Results: The results show that quality of work life and psychological empowerment significantly improve job performance, whereas job satisfaction has no notable effect.

Conclusions: QWL and Psychological Empowerment significantly improve job performance, while Job Satisfaction does not. However, all variables jointly affect performance.

Limitations: The study is limited to one institution, uses self-reported data, and explains only 60.1% of performance variance.

Contributions: This study provides evidence that QWL and Psychological Empowerment are key drivers of performance in a police context and offers practical implications for HR development.
