Abstract

Introduction: Psychosocial hazards in the work environment can cause psychological stress that has an impact on the mental health of workers, one of which is in the form of Mental Emotional Disorder (GME). GMEs, such as stress, anxiety, and depression, affect decreased concentration, motivation, and performance of employees and increase the risk of absenteeism and work accidents, especially in industries with high work pressure. PT. XXI Pasuruan faces these potential risks due to high work demands, so this study aims to analyze the influence of GME on employee performance as a basis for efforts to improve mental well-being and work productivity. Research Methods: Previous research used the Self-Reporting Questionnaire-20 (SRQ-20) questionnaire to determine the presence of GME in employees. Further research is needed to see the influence of GME on employee performance and what factors affect the occurrence of GME in employees at PT. XXI Pasuruan. This study will use an analytical epidemiological study with a cross sectional design. The total population in the study was 306 employees, with a total sample calculation of at least 173 respondents selected based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. Data were collected by SRQ-20 form and by interview. Later, data analysis will be carried out using SPSS through descriptive, bivariate, and multivariate analysis with a significance level of p < 0.05.
