INTRODUCTION In the era of globalization, business competition is getting tougher. In order for companies to be able to compete, not a few have begun to pay attention to the development of the quality of their human resources (human resources). This is done so that HR can become an asset that is expected to be able to encourage organizational growth and performance so that it is able to generate maximum profit for the company. Human resources are an important part of a company because without human resources, the company's activities do not run well. Human resources, as the most important component of every organisation, play a critical role in attaining the objectives. The role of human resources is then developed following the development of the organization, science and technology. Vosloban (2012) explains that the performance of employees in a company makes a very significant contribution to the company's performance. Therefore, it is one of the most important elements in carrying out any work in the company. In achieving the company's target, every employee must improve their performance. The motivational factor is also another factor that can spur the performance and morale of the employees. Having highly motivated employees is very important for an organization in an effort to achieve its goals (Said, Zaidee, Zahari, Ali, & Salleh, 2015). If an employee feels motivated in carrying out his work, the employee will have a high work ethic and have a high dedication to the progress of the company (Ghaffari, Burgoyne, & Nazri, 2017). According to Priansa (2016) stating that motivation is a process that shows individual intensity, direction and persistence of efforts towards achieving goals, where motivation as a motivating factor for someone to carry out an activity is certainly needed especially during the current pandemic. Motivation is a condition that encourage others to carry out tasks according to their function in organization (Bangun, 2012:312). Fahmi (2013) explain that motivation is an activity the behavior of a person in working in order to efforts to meet the needs of desired. Motivation can also be defined as a stimulation of desire (want) and driving force a person's willingness to work where every motive have certain goals to be achieved (Hasibuan, 2014). According to previous research conducted, Nuri (2019), Ekhsan (2019), Meganovitasari (2020) and Sudama (2020) show that motivation has a positive effect on employee performance. However, in contrast to Luhur (2014) which explains that work motivation does not affect company performance, this can happen if employees have a bad perception of an internal business process carried out by the company towards its employees. In addition to motivation, another factor that affects performance is the work environment. In a company, it is very important to pay attention to management. Although the work environment does not directly affect the personnel that carry out the manufacturing process in a company, it does have a direct impact on them. A pleasant working atmosphere gives employees a sense of security and allows them to perform at their best. If the employee likes the work environment in which he works, then the employee will feel at home at work in carrying out his activities so that work time can be used effectively, and vice versa. Previous research conducted by Suadah (2017), Nelizulfa (2018), and Meganovitasari (2020) shows that the work environment has a positive effect on employee performance. Meanwhile, research conducted by Nuri (2019) and Wulan (2020) shows that the work environment has no effect on employee performance. II. LITERATURE REVIEW Motivation Motivation is a potential force within a human being that can be developed on its own or developed by a number of external forces which essentially revolves around monetary and non-monetary rewards that can affect the results of their
