Abstract

Purpose: This study aims to examine the relationship between service quality, compensation, and crew satisfaction in a maritime crew service company. Specifically, it explores how service quality and compensation significantly affect crew satisfaction and the combined impact of these variables on overall satisfaction.

Research Methodology: A quantitative research design was employed, using an explanatory approach. The population of the study consisted of 146 crew members from PT. FOC Indonesia, with 60 participants selected through simple random sampling. Data were collected via a structured questionnaire with a five-point Likert scale, tested for validity and reliability.

Results: The analysis indicates that both service quality and compensation have a significant impact on crew satisfaction. Furthermore, when combined, these two factors also show a substantial relationship with crew satisfaction, demonstrating that quality service and fair compensation are crucial for maintaining high levels of satisfaction among the crew.

Conclusions: The study concludes that improving service quality and providing adequate compensation are essential for increasing crew satisfaction. The results suggest that PT. FOC Indonesia can enhance its competitive advantage in the crew recruitment market by addressing these factors.

Limitations: The study is limited by its focus on a single company and its sample size, which may not fully represent the entire industry. Further research could expand the scope to include other companies and a larger sample size to generalize the findings more broadly.

Contributions: This research contributes to the broader understanding of the factors influencing crew satisfaction in the maritime industry. It provides valuable insights for crewing companies seeking to improve their services and compensation systems to enhance employee satisfaction and retention.
