The Influence of Competence and Discipline of the Crew on the Performance of PT. Djakarta Lloyd

Abstract

A shipping company needs competent and qualified crews to carry out daily activities. To achieve its performance target, it needs to pay attention to the competency and the discipline of the ship crew. Unfortunately, many crews still do not meet the standards and qualifications to ensure maximum performance. The purpose of this study is to determine the influence of the competency and the discipline of the crew on the performance of PT. Djakarta Lloyd. The technical analysis of data is conducted by using a multiple regression method. PT. Djakarta Lloyd holds more job training in the field to solve problems that are related to the variable of the competency. By doing so, the company expects the optimal performance of its crews daily. The issues about crew discipline are mainly concerned with their awareness of the importance of being disciplined while working on board. The proper way to overcome this is by conducting training and periodic evaluations. The independent variable of this study is the variable of the competency and the discipline of the crew, while the dependent variable is the company’s performance.
