A company cannot be separated from human resources. Human resources are one of the most important things in running a company. If a company has sophisticated technology, good finances, and a good management system but inadequate human resources, the company's goals cannot be achieved. To achieve the company's goals, it is necessary to improve the performance of its employees. Therefore, employee performance can increase if there are influencing factors.
