Abstract

Proactive work behavior is an important element for workers even though they can work flexibly. Made it happenProactive Work Behavior cannot be separated from Role Breadth Self-Efficacy (RBSE) because Role Breadth Self-Efficacy refers to employees' confidence in their ability to engage in proactive, social, and integrative activities beyond their standard duties. Work Engagement also makes an important contribution to proactive behavior. Specifically, through proactive goal setting and achievement, a person is more likely to have their needs met when they are satisfied with their work. Individuals who experience positive affective states associated with Job Satisfaction are likely to change their situation proactively and exhibit higher levels of innovative behavior. Proactive Personality also influences employee behavior that is profitable for the company by putting effort into their work. Creating a work environment that can encourage employee creativity. This research is quantitative. Using Partial Least Square with a sample size of 54 permanent employees of PT PLN UP3 West Surabaya. The research results show that Proactive Personality significantly influences Proactive Work Behavior. Job Satisfaction was found to act as a significant mediator between Proactive Personality and Proactive Work Behavior. Work engagement has also been proven to be an important mediator in the relationship between proactive personality and proactive work behavior. Role Breadth Self-Efficacy plays a significant mediating role. Employees who are confident in their ability to fulfill a broader range of roles tend to be more proactive in taking initiative and making improvements in the workplace, which contributes to innovation and improved work processes. The results of this study indicate that the three mediating variables, namely Job Satisfaction, Work Engagement, and Role Breadth Self-Efficacy, together strengthen the influence of Proactive Personality on Proactive Work Behavior. The combination of these factors creates an environment that supports employees to behave more proactively, which is critical to meeting operational challenges and meeting customer needs.
