This study used a quantitative descriptive method. The population and sample in this study are permanent employees in all parts of PT Mopoli Raya Medan, amounting to 50 respondents. The sampling technique used is nonprobability sampling. This study uses path analysis which consists of two equations. The results of the study showed two path structural sub-structural equations, namely Y1 = 3.817 + 0.510X1 + 0.300X2 + 0.658 and Y2 = 2.934 + 0.299X1 + 0.352X2 + 0.292Y1 + 0.616.
