The results indicate that partially, work motivation has a significant effect on the productivity of healthcare workers with a t-value of -2.172 and a significance level of 0.031, but it shows a negative relationship. Meanwhile, the work environment has a significant and dominant effect on productivity with a t-value of 22.153 and a significance level of 0.000. Simultaneously, work motivation and work environment have a significant effect on the productivity of healthcare workers with an F-value of 512.703 and a significance level of 0.000.
