Abstract

The limited training provided by the Surakarta Class I Detention Center and the low motivation of employees to participate in training result in less optimal employee competencies, which hampers individual development and impacts job satisfaction. This study aims to determine the effect of training and development on job satisfaction among employees at the Class I State Detention Center in Surakarta. The research method used is quantitative with a survey design. The researcher employed a non-probability purposive sampling technique, resulting in a sample of 73 employees as respondents. Before analyzing the data, the researcher conducted validity and reliability tests on the instruments. Data analysis involved normality tests, simple linear regression analysis, the coefficient of determination test, and significance testing. The results indicate that there is an effect of training and development on job satisfaction, as shown by a significance value of 0.000 < 0.05, leading to the rejection of H0 and acceptance of Ha. The coefficient b in the simple linear regression equation is positive at 0.133, indicating a positive and direct effect. The coefficient of determination test yielded an R Square value of 0.703, which shows that the effect of training and development as the independent variable on job satisfaction as the dependent variable is 70.3%, while the remaining 29.7% is influenced by other variables not discussed in this study. Therefore, it can be concluded that there is a significant positive effect of training and development on job satisfaction among employees at the Class I State Detention Center in Surakarta. Providing training and development can be used as a strategy to face new challenges as correctional officers.
