Abstract
This study aims to analyze the effect of intrinsic motivation on job satisfaction during the covid-19 pandemic with innovative work behaviour as a mediator. The State Civil Service has a strategic role in carrying out general government duties and providing services to the community. Government agencies need to ensure that their employees are performing well. The literature notes that one strategy to improve employee performance is paying attention to job satisfaction. Unfortunately, the Covid-19 pandemic has caused the job satisfaction of government employees to decline. One of the factors identified as the cause of the decline in job satisfaction is employee intrinsic motivation. The research subjects are all Regency Transportation Service office employees in Indonesia. The sampling technique is a saturated sample method involving all population members as respondents. The researchers collected the data through questionnaires distributed directly to the target respondent within two weeks. One hundred seventeen employees were involved in the study. The researchers analyzed the data using multiple regression analysis and path analysis techniques with the help of SPSS software. The results of this study show that intrinsic motivation has a significant effect on job satisfaction and innovative behaviour has a significant positive effect as a mediator on the influence of intrinsic motivation on job satisfaction.
