Abstract

Employee productivity is a critical determinant of organizational performance, particularly in high-pressure work environments where excessive workloads and operational demands may reduce employees' effectiveness. This study aimed to examine the effects of total reward and workplace well-being on employee productivity at PT Kerta Gaya Pusaka Medan Branch. A quantitative approach with an associative research design was employed. The study involved all 51 employees using a saturated sampling technique. Data were collected through questionnaires and analyzed using multiple linear regression, including validity and reliability tests, classical assumption tests, t-tests, F-tests, and the coefficient of determination (R²). The findings revealed that workplace well-being had a positive and significant effect on employee productivity (? = 0.752; p < 0.001), whereas total reward did not have a significant partial effect (? = 0.188; p = 0.062). Simultaneously, total reward and workplace well-being significantly influenced employee productivity (F = 83.644; p < 0.001), explaining 77.7% of the variance in productivity (R² = 0.777). These results indicate that improving employees' physical, psychological, and social well-being plays a more substantial role in enhancing productivity than reward systems alone, particularly in organizations operating under high work pressure.
