The Influence of the Quality of Human Resources and Organizational Commitment on Employee Performance at the Secretariat of the Regional People's Representative Council of Riau Province

The purpose of this research is to identify and assess the impact of human resource quality and organizational commitment on the performance of workers of the Riau Province People's Representative Council. The study sample consists of all 197 workers of the DPRD Riau Province. The findings revealed that the quality of human resources and organizational commitment had a significant positive effect on the performance of DPRD Riau Provincial DPRD employees, but the quality of HR had no significant effect on employee performance, whereas organizational commitment had an impact on the performance of Riau Provincial DPRD employees. Suggestions for improving employee knowledge and abilities were made, and it was suggested that the organizational commitment variable be expanded to include continuous commitment and normative commitment in addition to affective commitment. Employee performance characteristics in terms of collaboration and quality of work in carrying out their tasks and responsibilities must be enhanced in the future to support the fulfillment of the Riau Provincial DPRD's vision and mission.


Introduction
Organizational effectiveness is mainly influenced by the availability of reliable human resources, both at the leadership and staff levels (Sinambela, 2021). Within the framework of Public Sector Organizations, optimal performance that prioritizes the public interest is always required. Therefore, it is expected that the government, especially local governments engaged in public services, always pays attention to the needs of the people it serves (Kalangi, 2015).
The quality of human resources can be seen from two perspectives: physical (physical quality) and non-physical (nonphysical quality) (Notoatmodjo: 2003). Non-physical characteristics can be improved through the creation of education and training programs. With the development of professional human resources, it is hoped that workers will be more productive and have excellent performance (Djuwita, 2011). The importance of the quality of human resources, namely the capacity of each employee to carry out the assigned tasks, grow personally, and support the selfdevelopment of his co-workers (Matindas, 2002).
The Regional People's Representative Council (DPRD) is a regional government and legislative institution partner (Santoso, 2011). The role of the DPRD in regional government administrative politics is the implementation of the notion of decentralization (Rustandi, 2017). The DPRD cannot be separated from the Regional People's Representative Council Secretariat, which is led by a Secretary of the Regional People's Representative Council as a staff element that assists the Regional People's Representative Council leadership in carrying out their duties and responsibilities (Nurdiansyah, 2017

Quality of Human Resources
The quality of human resources is the capacity of each employee to fulfill the assigned tasks and encourage the growth of himself and his colleagues (Matindas, 2002). According to Sedarmayanti (2009), the quality of resources reflects the extent to which needs, specifications, and expectations have been met. According to Rucky (2003), the quality of human resources is the amount of knowledge, competence, and willingness shown by these individuals. This rate is compared to the level required by resource-rich organizations over time. The capacity of an employee to be a resource for an organization is very important to increase work productivity within the company. The goals and objectives of the organization will be determined by the quality of its human resources.
According to Koswara (2001), the quality of apparatus resources in the current regional autonomy period is determined by the professional and technical capabilities of the apparatus and implementers of the Regional Government. This is very important for the success and efficiency of governance in autonomous regions. What is needed is not only a sufficient number of personnel, but also their quality, which must be determined by assessing their educational background, abilities, work experience, rank and employment status.

Employee Performance
Performance has several definitions, including: the outcomes of work in quality and quantity obtained by personnel in carrying out their obligations in line with the responsibilities assigned to them (Mangkunegara, 2013). The capacity of personnel to do their jobs in accordance with their knowledge (Sinambela, 2021).
Several elements that influence employee performance include the following (Mathis & Jackson, 2002): 1) Work quality, which is the amount of work completed under normal circumstances. 2) Quality of Labor, i.e., the outcomes of work in the form of precision and tidiness in relation to results, without sacrificing quantity. 3) Punctuality, as shown by working punctually in compliance with appropriate requirements 4) Capacity for collaboration; performing specific duties involves cooperation between personnel on occasion.

Organizational Commitment
An employee's strong desire to remain a part of the organization is organizational commitment. Organizational commitment is also the desire of workers to work diligently in accordance with the organization's goals. Organizational Commitment Having particular views and attempting to adopt the organization's principles and objectives (aranya et al. 1981). Allen and Meyer (1993) proposed the following three aspects of organizational commitment: 1) Affective Commitment, or the emotional commitment, identification, and engagement of workers with the company. 2) Continuous Commitment, which is a commitment based on losses linked with staff departures. 3) Normative Commitment, which is the commitment to stay with the organization.

Figure 1 Research framework Hypothesis
It is believed that the quality of human resources in the Riau Provincial DPRD Secretariat has a major impact on work dedication and employee performance.

METHOD
This study uses a quantitative approach. The population is all employees who work in the Secretariat of the Regional People's Representative Council of Riau Province, amounting to 197 people. And all of these employees were used as samples in this study. Data was collected using a questionnaire in the form of a list of questions (questionnaire), and interviews were conducted with respondents about the quality of human resources, employee performance and organizational commitment. Respondents' answers were measured using a Likert scale, namely: 5 = strongly agree, 4 = agree, 3 = enough, 2 = disagree, 1 = disagree. This study uses linear regression analysis with the help of SMART PLS data processing tools ,3.0.

Validity test
The validity test for the variable quality of human resources (X1), organizational commitment variable (X2) and employee performance variable (Y) is as follows: 1. The human resource quality variable (X1) has a corrected item value of 0.3, which has a value between 0.327-0.805 and is declared valid. 2. Organizational commitment variable (X2) has a value of Corrected item-total corrected > 0.3 which has a value between 0.426-0.833 and is declared valid corrected > 3. Employee performance variable (Y) has a corrected item-total corrected value > 0.3, which has a value between 0.322-0.752 and is declared valid.

Uji Reabilitas
Test the reliability for each variable by testing the Cronbach Alpha statistic which is > or equal to 0.7 for each question as follows: 1.   1. The quality of human resources has a positive relationship to employee performance of 0.187. This illustrates that an increase of one unit for the quality of human resources with the assumption that other factors remain constant will increase employee performance by 0.187 units. The more the quality of the employees of the DPR Riau Province increases, the performance of the employees will also increase. 2. Organizational commitment has a positive relationship to employee performance of 0.382 . This illustrates that an increase of one unit for organizational commitment with the assumption that other factors remain, will increase employee performance by 0.382 units. This means that the increasing work commitment of the organization to the employees of the Riau Province House of Representatives will encourage increased performance of these employees. 3. The quality of human resources has a positive relationship to organizational commitment of 0.792. This illustrates that an increase of one unit for the quality of human resources will be accompanied by an increase in the organizational commitment of employees at the Riau Province House of Representatives by 0.792. This means that the higher the quality of the employees of the Riau Province House of Representatives, the higher their work commitment to the organization.

Hypothesis Test Results with SEM PLS
When analyzing data presented in this table, it is possible to see a significant 0.061 or bigger alpha value in the results of testing the hypothesis that the quality of human resources affects employee performance. As a result, employees' performance is unaffected by the quality of human resources. So the first hypothesis in this research, "there is a considerable beneficial effect of HR quality on the performance of the Riau Provincial DPRD personnel," has been rejected since it has not been proved to be significant.. Because of this, the Riau Province DPR personnel' performance is unaffected by the quality of Human Resources in Riau Province.
According to the findings of a test on employee commitment, the variable quality of Human Resources has an alpha value of 0.02 or below. This signifies that the DPR Riau Province's workers are more committed to the company because of the high quality of Human Resources. There is thus a considerable beneficial effect on the quality of human resources on organizational commitment of Riau Provincial DPRD personnel, as stated in the second hypothesis of this research. This suggests that the better the quality of human resources, the more committed the workers are to their employer, and vice versa. An organization's dedication to the Riau Province's Regional People's Representative Council personnel is strongly influenced by its human resources.
It has been shown that the House of Representatives of Riau Province's workers' performance is substantially impacted by 66.7 percent of the factors of human resource quality and employee organizational commitment.
Employee performance was shown to be significantly affected by the organizational commitment variable by a p-value of 0.010 or less, which is considered statistically insignificant. This suggests that the DPR Riau Province's workers' performance is strongly influenced by the organization's dedication. As a result, the "There is a considerable beneficial effect of organizational commitment on the Riau Provincial DPRD personnel' performance" hypothesis suggested in this research has been confirmed to be significant. This indicates that the more committed an employee is to the Riau Provincial DPRD, the better their performance will be. Employee performance in this company will suffer if the organization's level of commitment is poor.

Discussion
According to the Partial Least Square (PLS) Structural Test of Equation Modeling (SEM), the independent variables, namely the human resource quality variable (X1) and the organizational commitment variable (X2), have a substantial effect on the employee performance variable (Y). The variable quality of human resources (X1) has a substantial impact on organizational commitment (X2). Employee performance is significantly influenced by organizational commitment (X2).

This indicates , Riau Provincial DPRD personnel' performance is unaffected by the quality of their human resources. There is no evidence that HR quality has an influence on employee performance according to the findings of Morris & Sherman (1981), Kozen Holt (1989) and Michael Ritchie (2000), who concluded that HR quality had no effect on employee performance.
