Abstract
This study aims to analyze the influence of Distributive Compensation Justice and Procedural Compensation Justice on Employee Performance through Job Satisfaction among non-managerial employees at PT Tunas Jaya Perkasa, Melak site, Kutai Barat. This research uses a quantitative approach with a survey method. Data were collected through questionnaires distributed to 64 non-managerial employees directly involved in field operations. Data analysis was conducted using Partial Least Squares–Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) with the support of SmartPLS 3 software. The results show that Distributive Compensation Justice and Procedural Compensation Justice have a positive and significant effect on Job Satisfaction. Furthermore, Job Satisfaction has a positive and significant effect on Employee Performance. The direct influence of Distributive and Procedural Compensation Justice on Employee Performance is not significant; however, through the mediation of Job Satisfaction, their influence becomes significant. Mediation testing indicates that Job Satisfaction fully mediates the effect of Distributive Compensation Justice on Employee Performance and partially mediates the effect of Procedural Compensation Justice on Employee Performance.
