This research was conducted in eight Public Health Centers in Pinrang Regency with a population of 322 people; researchers took 220 people as samples. This research method uses regressive research with a quantitative approach. The technique of collecting data by making observations with the media questionnaire. The method of analysis uses inferential statistics with a parametric data type and uses Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). The results showed that the work environment variable on employee performance had a positive and significant effect because it had t-value = 2.97 > 1.96 (t-table). Likewise, the work environment on job satisfaction has at-value = 2.31> 1.96 (t-table) which means that the work environment has a positive and significant effect on job satisfaction. The work environment on employee performance mediated by job satisfaction also has a significant effect with t-value = -2.32> 1.96 (t-table). However, the compensation variable on employee performance shows no and significant effect because the t-value = 0.00 <1.96 (t-table). The compensation variable on job satisfaction has a positive and significant effect with t-value = 2.97> 1.96 (t-table). Likewise, the compensation variable on employee performance with job satisfaction as a mediating variable has at-value = 3.36> 1.96 (t-table) which means that positive job satisfaction mediates the relationship between compensation and employee performance. With t-value = -2.73> 1.96 (t-table), so it can be interpreted that the job satisfaction variable has a positive and significant effect on officer performance.
