Abstract

ABSTRACT

This study aimed to analyze the partial and simultaneous effects of self-efficacy and Locus of Control on the work readiness of Grade XII students majoring in Office Management and Business Services (MPLB) at vocational high schools in Surabaya. The work readiness of vocational high school graduates remains a concern because not all students have adequate readiness to enter the workforce after graduation. This condition highlights the need to examine factors that may influence students’ work readiness, particularly self-efficacy and Locus of Control. This study employed a quantitative approach using proportional random sampling involving 138 students from a population of 268 students at three private vocational high schools in Surabaya, namely SMK PGRI 13, SMK IPIEMS, and SMK Mahardika. Data were collected using a Likert-scale questionnaire and analyzed using multiple linear regression with the assistance of SPSS 24. The results showed that self-efficacy and Locus of Control each had a positive and significant effect on students’ work readiness. Furthermore, both variables simultaneously had a positive and significant effect on work readiness. The findings indicate that self-efficacy and Locus of Control are important factors in developing students’ work readiness, although other factors also contribute to its development. The study concludes that strengthening students’ self-efficacy and Locus of Control is important to support their readiness to face the demands of the workplace. Therefore, schools are encouraged to strengthen career guidance and applicable Field Work Practice (PKL) programs that support students’ psychological and practical readiness for work.

ABSTRAK

Kesiapan kerja merupakan aspek penting yang perlu dimiliki siswa SMK, khususnya pada program keahlian Manajemen Perkantoran dan Layanan Bisnis (MPLB), karena lulusan dituntut memiliki keyakinan terhadap kemampuan diri serta kemampuan mengendalikan dan mengarahkan perilaku dalam menghadapi tuntutan dunia kerja. Oleh karena itu, penting untuk mengidentifikasi faktor psikologis yang dapat mendukung kesiapan kerja siswa agar mereka lebih siap memasuki dunia kerja setelah lulus. Penelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis pengaruh efikasi diri dan Locus of Control, baik secara parsial maupun simultan, terhadap kesiapan kerja siswa kelas XII jurusan Manajemen Perkantoran dan Layanan Bisnis (MPLB) di SMK Surabaya. Penelitian ini penting karena kesiapan kerja lulusan SMK tidak hanya ditentukan kompetensi teknis, tetapi juga faktor psikologis internal yang memengaruhi kemampuan menghadapi tuntutan dunia kerja. Pemahaman terhadap pengaruh kedua faktor tersebut diperlukan sebagai dasar penguatan kesiapan kerja siswa. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kuantitatif dengan teknik proportional random sampling terhadap 138 siswa dari populasi 268 siswa di tiga SMK swasta Surabaya, yaitu SMK PGRI 13, SMK IPIEMS, dan SMK Mahardika. Data dikumpulkan melalui angket skala Likert dan dianalisis menggunakan regresi linear berganda dengan bantuan SPSS 24. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa efikasi diri dan Locus of Control masing-masing berpengaruh positif dan signifikan terhadap kesiapan kerja. Temuan ini menunjukkan bahwa semakin baik efikasi diri dan Locus of Control yang dimiliki siswa, semakin tinggi pula kesiapan mereka dalam menghadapi dunia kerja. Selain itu, kedua variabel tersebut secara bersama-sama juga terbukti memberikan pengaruh yang signifikan terhadap kesiapan kerja. Besarnya kontribusi kedua variabel menunjukkan bahwa efikasi diri dan Locus of Control merupakan faktor penting dalam membentuk kesiapan kerja siswa, meskipun masih terdapat faktor lain di luar penelitian yang turut memengaruhinya. Penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa faktor psikologis internal merupakan penentu penting kesiapan kerja siswa, sehingga sekolah disarankan mengoptimalkan intervensi sosiopsikologis melalui program bimbingan karier dan Praktik Kerja Lapangan (PKL).
