Abstract

This study aims to analyze the effect of workload and physical work environment on the job satisfaction of construction workers at PT. XYZ. A quantitative method with descriptive and associative approaches was employed. The population consisted of 32 construction workers selected using a saturated sampling technique. Data were collected through questionnaires, interviews, and documentation and analyzed using validity, reliability, classical assumption, multiple linear regression, t-test, F-test, and coefficient of determination analyses with SPSS 27. The results showed that workload was categorized as highly inappropriate, the physical work environment was inadequate, and job satisfaction remained low. The t-test results indicated that workload (t = 8.569; p < 0.05) and physical work environment (t = 2.525; p < 0.05) had a positive and significant effect on job satisfaction. The F-test results revealed that both variables simultaneously had a significant effect on job satisfaction. The coefficient of determination (R²) of 0.944 indicates that 94.4% of the variation in job satisfaction can be explained by workload and physical work environment.
