Abstract

This study seeks to examine how employee engagement and a green work environment mediate the relationship between motivation and performance among logistics company employees in Erbil, Kurdistan. Utilizing a causal quantitative research approach, this study distributed 165 questionnaires to logistics employees. These questionnaires were adapted from previous studies. Data analysis was conducted using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) with Partial Least Squares. The findings revealed that motivation positively and significantly affects employee performance in logistics companies. Additionally, both a green work environment and employee engagement significantly mediate the link between motivation and performance. These results highlight the critical role of a green work environment and employee engagement in boosting motivation and performance in logistics firms. The study suggests that improving employee performance in logistics companies can be achieved by providing a green work environment and fostering employee motivation and engagement.
