INTRODUCTION

Fire is a threat to human safety, property and the environment. The increasing population and the increasing construction of office buildings have created a vulnerability in the event of fire. According to Samsudin (2012:22) human resource management is a management activity that includes utilization, development, assessment, and providing compensation for humans as individual members of an organization or business company.

Carrying out the task of extinguishing fires is a job with high risks big. A officer required own soul of taste brave, firm in leading, optimistic in carrying out duties and good cooperation in a team to create good performance. According to Dharma (2010:25) performance is a way to get better results for organizations, groups and individuals by understanding and managing performance in accordance with planned targets, predetermined standards and competency requirements. Based on results observation, that performance Which generated by the employees felt Not yet maximum And can predicted factor Which become causes include compensation, leadership style, motivation and work discipline.

According to Hasibuan (2017:118) compensation is all income in the form of money, direct or indirect goods received by employees as compensation for services provided to the company. Some of it is felt para employee on agency Good ASN nor Honorel Not yet feel satisfied with the salary received, payment outside working hours such as holidays and holidays for avoid saturation para employee, so that influence quality work produced. Research conducted by Trilaksono (2016) shows that compensation has a positive effect on employee performance at the Rejo Agung Madiun Sugar Factory.

Apart from compensation, leadership factors describe the relationship between the leader and those led and how a leader directs those led. See Which happen on agency that ability employee In completing the task it is felt that it is not optimal and experiences a decline. So it requires a special leadership style to influence and encourage employee enthusiasm in doing their work. According to Robbins and Coulter (2010: 159) transactional leadership style is a leader who leads by using social exchange or transactions. Transactional leaders direct or motivate their subordinates to work to achieve goals with give award or productivity they. Meaning By The broad transactional leadership style is the ability to identify subordinates' desires and help them achieve higher levels of achievement by providing satisfying rewards. Research conducted by Italiani (2018) proves that the transactional leadership style has a positive and significant effect on employee performance in the HR Department of PT. Semen Gresik (Persero) Tbk.

According to Hasibuan (2017: 141) motivation is something that causes, channels and supports human behavior, so that they are willing to work hard and are enthusiastic about achieving maximum results. An employee will feel motivated to work optimally if at work they can fulfill their daily needs. Research conducted by Sendow, Mekel and Tindow (2014) shows that motivation has a positive and significant effect on employee performance at PT. Bank of North Sulawesi, Calaca Branch.

According to Darmawan (2013:41) work discipline is defined as an attitude, behavior and actions that comply with the regulations of the organization in written or unwritten form. There is still a lack of awareness among employees regarding the level of discipline there is on agencies can influence quality results performance.

This research aims to identify factors that influence employee performance in handling fires in an agency. Fire is a serious threat to the safety of people and assets, especially with increasing population growth and the increasingly rapid construction of office buildings. The factors that will be studied include human resource management, including compensation, leadership style, motivation, and work discipline. By better understanding how these factors influence employee performance, it is hoped that this research can provide valuable insights for the development of effective management strategies in improving response and handling of fires, as well as improving safety and service quality in emergency situations.

This research has significant implications in increasing understanding of the factors that influence employee performance in handling fires in an agency. Fire is a serious threat to the safety of people and assets, especially with increasing population growth and the increasingly rapid construction of office buildings. By identifying factors such as human resource management, including compensation, leadership style, motivation, and work discipline, this research provides valuable insights for the development of effective management strategies. The main implication is the ability to improve response and handling of fires as well as improve safety and quality of service in emergency situations.

RESEARCH METHOD

The object of this research includes employee performance which is influenced by several factors, including compensation, transactional leadership style, motivation and work discipline. The data used is primary data with quantitative data type. The research was conducted at the South Jakarta City Administration Fire and Rescue Service, whose address is Jalan Raya Lebak Bulus in November 2019. The population studied was ASN employees with a sample of 100 employees, using a non-probability sampling technique with a purposive sampling approach.

The data collection technique was carried out through distributing questionnaires using a Likert scale. The operational definitions of the variables used are explained in Table 1. The analytical methods used include descriptive analysis, inferential analysis, instrument testing, classical assumption testing, model feasibility testing, hypothesis testing (t test), and multiple linear regression.

Descriptive analysis is used to describe or describe data without making general conclusions or generalizations. Meanwhile, inferential analysis is used to analyze sample data and the results are applied to the population. Multiple linear regression is used to determine the effect of the independent variable on the dependent variable. Apart from that, validity tests, reliability tests, normality tests, autocorrelation tests, heteroscedasticity tests, multicollinearity tests, F tests, and coefficient of determination (R2) were also carried out to assess the feasibility of the regression model and the influence of each independent variable partially on the dependent variable.
