Summary: | Job performance is the overall expected value of individuals of their behaviour which
was carried out over a period of working time. This study was conducted to determine
the factors that influence job performance. The study also adopts the quantitative
research paradigm using the correlational research method. Data were collected from 217
number of samples of religious teachers that teach in Tahfiz Institutions in Selangor.
Results on the direct effect of the analysis shows that Islamic work ethics, teachers’
commitment, self-efficacy and religiosity support significantly influence job
performance. These results explain that when religious teachers have positive attitudes
in their work ethics and are committed, they tend to perform in their work. Religious
teachers who have high level of self-belief tends to perform in their job regardless of
difficulties that they have faced. Individuals who have high level of religiosity will tend
to perform in their jobs because they seek rewards in afterlife if they are ready to perform
in their jobs. This study concluded that religious teachers have high level of IWE, teacher
commitment, self-efficacy and religiosity in performing their job. All the independent
variables show that there was significant relationship with job performance. These
findings align with the notion of Theory of Planned Behavior and Social Exchange
Theory that makes contribution of individual behaviour to job performance clearer. This
study also provides support for Human Resource Development (HRD) to enhance career
development by proposing appropriate framework derived from past studies to identify
the factors that contribute towards religious teacher job performance. |
