EMPLOYEE PERFORMANCE ACCOUNTABILITY IN THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THE ANNUAL WORK PLAN

Abstract

This study aims to assess the extent to which employee performance accountability is implemented in the execution of the Annual Work Plan (RKT) at the Investment and One-Stop Integrated Services Office (DPMPTSP) of Kuningan Regency. Performance accountability is a crucial element of good governance, as it reflects responsibility, transparency, and the evaluation of both individual and organizational performance. This research adopts a qualitative approach with a descriptive method to gain in-depth understanding through interviews, observations, and document analysis. The findings indicate that accountability has begun to be internalized in the implementation of the RKT, as evidenced by leadership involvement, reporting mechanisms, and monitoring efforts. However, several challenges remain, including weak documentation practices, unclear performance indicators, low reporting discipline, and limited human resources. Therefore, strengthening work culture, enhancing technical capacity, and developing a more integrated evaluation system are essential to foster more optimal accountability practices. These findings are expected to serve as a foundation for policy formulation aimed at improving civil servant performance and achieving organizational goals.
