To get a sample that can describe the population, in determining the research sample used the Slovin Formula as many as 52 teachers and employees in Cluster 1, Koba District, Central Bangka Regency. Based on the results of the analysis, an r count of 0.981 is obtained, meaning that 98% of the variation in changes in employee performance (Y) is caused by reward (X1) and punishment (X2) factors.
