Pengaruh Islamic Work Ethic Dan Ethical Leadership Terhadap Peningkatan Kinerja Pegawai Lazismu Sumatera Utara

THE INFLUENCE OF ISLAMIC WORK ETHIC AND ETHICAL LEADERSHIP ON IMPROVING THE PERFORMANCE OF LAZISMU EMPLOYEES NORTH SUMATRA Abstract. This study aims to investigate the relationship between Islamic work ethics and ethical leadership with the goal of discovering any synergistic impacts on organisational performance. The study's premise is that moral and religiously grounded leadership principles, as well as the application of ethical standards, can improve the performance of an organization's human resource department. Multiple linear regression analysis was the quantitative tool of choice for the researchers in this investigation. Questionnaires were distributed to the research facility's staff. Instrumental testing made use of validity and reliability tests, while classical assumption testing included heteroscedasticity and multicollinearity. Our hypothesis testing was conducted in SPSS version 27, where the t-test, F-test, and coefficient of determination (R³) were employed. The study's results indicate that partially Islamic work ethics have a positive impact on employee performance, as seen by a computed t-value of 5.411 > 2.036 and a significance level of 0.000 < 0.05. The computed t value of 2.798 > 2.036 and a significance level of 0.009 < 0.05 show that the Ethical Leadership variable has a positive and significant impact on Employee Performance. A computed F value of 49.991 (higher than 3.295) and a significance level of 0.000 (lower than 0.05) suggest that both variables have a substantial effect on Employee Performance. The R2 value of 0.563 indicates that these two factors account for 56.3% of the variation in worker output. This study's findings support the idea that ethical leadership and Islamic principles in the workplace can increase output. Therefore, it is imperative that companies prioritise Islamically-based leadership practices and actively seek to cultivate an Islamic work culture.
