This research was motivated by the condition of the ferry port in Batam City during the Covid-19 period where several existing ports experienced a sharp decline in revenue due to the absence of tourists coming and visiting Batam. However, as time went on, the economic recovery of several ferry ports began to show better performance. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of work discipline and compensation on employee performance at the ferry port in Batam City. The method used in this study was to conduct a survey and distribute questionnaires to four ferry ports in Batam City which were used as samples in the study. The number of samples used was 115 samples. The results of the validity test found that all independent variables or the x variable, the discipline and compensation variables, and the y variable, namely employee performance, were all valid with values ​​above 0.6. The results of the reliability test found that all research variables were reliable. From the results of the study it was concluded that discipline and compensation have a significant effect on employee performance at the ferry port in Batam City. The results of the Q square test show that the independent variable can explain the dependent variable by 87%, meaning that the discipline variable and compensation variable can affect the employee performance variable by 87% while the remaining 13% is influenced by other variables outside the research variables.
