Abstract
As law enforcement officers, police officers are required to be ready to carry out their duties 24 hours a day and take full responsibility for every call of duty. This demand can affect their psychological engagement at work. This study aims to examine the influence of the Work Environment on Work Engagement, with Perceived Organizational Support as a mediating variable. This quantitative study involved 150 members of the Cilacap Police Department with data collected using a Likert scale questionnaire. Data analysis was conducted using (SEM-PLS) using SmartPLS 3.0. The results showed that the Work Environment influenced POS, but the Work Environment and POS did not significantly influence Work Engagement, and POS did not mediate the relationship. These findings indicate the need for strategies to improve work engagement within the Cilacap Police Department. This study has limitations, so it is recommended that further research consider other more relevant variables.
