Abstract:
Weaving workers in Bali are inherited from generation to generation. The
ability to weave is obtained without special education/training. The ability to work
weaving is obtained independently of the environment. In addition, the difficulty of
finding other jobs causes workers to keep working. These two things are important
factors in determining the performance of weaving workers in Bali. This study aims
to analyze the effect of work competence (knowledge, skills, and attitudes) on
employee commitment and performance, the effect of a work commitment on
employee performance, and the role of work commitment in mediating the rela tionship of competence with employee performance. This research was conducted
on 168 weaving workers in Bali. Data collection was carried out through distributing
questionnaires to research respondents. The data collected was analyzed using the
SmartPLS 3.0 program. The results found competencies consisting of knowledge,
skills, and attitudes showed a significant positive effect on employee commitment
and performance, work commitment also had a significant positive effect on per formance. Work commitments also act as mediators of the relationship of compe tence with employee performance.
