Abstract

This study examines the independent and simultaneous associations of training and work discipline with employee performance at PT Idena Nusa Cipta, a service firm in Jakarta. Using a quantitative cross-sectional design and a saturated sample of 49 employees, the study analyzes questionnaire data with simple and multiple linear regression after classical assumption testing. The revised reporting shows that training and work discipline are each positively and significantly associated with employee performance, while the joint model explains a substantial share of the observed variance. The manuscript therefore positions training and discipline as complementary HR mechanisms rather than as isolated managerial tools. Because the study is single-site and cross-sectional, the findings should be interpreted as context-bound associations rather than broad causal claims. Future studies should test the model in multiple firms and include additional predictors such as motivation, leadership, and organizational culture.
