Abstract

A work environment is defined as the setting within which an individual operates, encompassing the milieu surrounding them. It constitutes the social and professional ambiance wherein individuals engage with diverse stakeholders. Undoubtedly, the work environment exerts a profound influence on the performance and productivity of employees. This study provides crucial insights into the myriad factors within the work environment that influence employee performance. Through meticulous examination, this study elucidates the profound impact of the work environment on employee performance, thereby shedding light on critical aspects such as safety protocols, training, and development initiatives, employee welfare measures, monetary incentives, and the quality of supervision provided. Focusing specifically on the production sector, where innovation and efficiency are paramount, the study acknowledges the significance of understanding how workplace dynamics influence employee productivity and satisfaction. With a population size of 950 individuals employed in production roles within Minda Sai Ltd, a sample size of 150 was randomly selected using the simple random sampling method. This approach ensures that a representative cross-section of employees is included in the study, allowing for insightful analysis of the correlation between workplace environment and employee performance. In this study, the demographic factors were analyzed using the percentage method, deviations were assessed through the Chi-square test to determine differences between observed and expected values, the ANOVA test was employed to ascertain any differences between groups on specific variables, and correlation analysis was conducted to examine the linear relationship between two variables.
