| description | This study explores the relationship and the impact of the participation in related activities and autonomy of job
performance toward task performance and contextual performance of job performance. The study was conducted
on the electrical and electronics (E&E) engineers in the Bayan Lepas Free Trade Zone, Penang. Self-administered
questionnaires were distributed through the E&E manufacturing companies’ human resource managers. A total of
1,100 questionnaires were distributed that adapted and adopted the research tools of Govino on participation in
related activities, Conway and Monks on autonomy, Williams and Anderson on task performance, and Hochwarter
et al. on contextual performance. A total of 181 were returned but 150 questionnaires were useable for this study.
A factor analysis was conducted on all variables of the study. Interestingly, participation in work-related variables
had been divided into participation in HR-related activities and participation in work-related activities. Results
indicated that participation in HR-related activities had no association with task performance but had a low
relationship with the contextual performance. Furthermore, the participation in work-related activities had no
relationship with both, the task performance and the contextual performance. Finally, the engineers indicated that
their autonomy had a low relationship with the task performance and moderate relationship with the contextual
performance |
