The sampling technique applied was a saturated sample, in which all members of the population were used as research subjects, resulting in 94 respondents. The results of the study show that professionalism (X1) has a positive effect. This means that every increase of 0.162 units in the professionalism variable will improve employee performance. The multiple regression analysis shows that the competence variable (X2) has a coefficient value of 1.159. It indicates that every one-unit increase in competence will increase employee performance, and the coefficient is positive. The coefficient value for the work ethics variable (X3) is 0.049, which means that every one-unit increase in work ethics will increase employee performance (Y) by 0.049. Based on the t-test results, professionalism (X1) has a positive and significant effect on employee performance, with a value of 2.181 and a significance level of 0.032 < 0.05. The competence variable (X2) also has a positive and significant effect on performance, with a value of 30.0621 and a significance level of 0.000 < 0.05. Meanwhile, work ethics (X3) has a positive but not significant effect on employee performance, with a value of 0.796 and a significance level of 0.428 > 0.05. The simultaneous F-test shows a significance value of 0.000 < 0.05, which means that professionalism, competence, and work ethics together have a positive and significant effect on employee performance. The data analysis result shows an R value of 0739, meaning that professionalism, competence, and work ethics influence employee performance by 73.9%, while the remaining 26.1% is influenced by other factors such as the work environment, leadership, and work motivation.
