Then the analysis was carried out using the descriptive analysis method. That includes validity and reliability tests, classical assumption tests, hypothesis testing through t-test and analysis of the coefficient of determination (R2). The data analysis technique used is multiple linear regression analysis using the Absolute Difference Test which serves to prove the research hypothesis. The data that has met the validity test, reliability test, and classical assumption test are processed to produce the following regression equation: Y = 6.439 + 1.328X - 0.244Z. With 1 Independent Variable, 1 Dependent Variable and 1 Moderating Variable, it shows that. Hypothesis 1 states that work motivation has a positive effect on employee performance.

Hypothesis 2 states that the variable length of service (Z) has no effect on the employee performance variable (Y). From table 4.15, the tcount value is -0.743.
