Abstract

The utilization of existing Human Resources in the industrial sector is the key to achieving goals in the industrial sector. The success or failure of a work organization in achieving its goals will depend on the human resources, including the labor in the Kerawang Industry in Mongolato Village, Telaga Subdistrict, Gorontalo Regency. For this reason, it is essential to conduct research that aims to determine the effect of wage and age factors on labor productivity in the Kerawang Naga Mas Industry. Moreover, this study applies multiple linear regression analysis where the population is the laborers in the Kerawang Naga Mas industry, amounting to 35 respondents. At the same time, the data collection is done through questionnaires and interviews. The research finding clarifies that wage and age factors significantly affect labor productivity in the Kerawang Naga Mas Industry. However, wage has a negative tendency on labor productivity, which means that for every 1% increase in wage, the labor production value of the Krawang Industry will decrease by 0.298. In contrast, the age variable has a positive tendency on labor productivity, meaning that for every 1% increase in age, the labor productivity value of the Kerawang Industry will increase by 0.1743.
