The performance of hospital nurses is greatly influenced by the quality of the work environment. Quality of Nursing Work Life (QNWL) reflects the level of comfort, well-being, and support that nurses experience in the workplace. In addition, job satisfaction plays a crucial role in motivating nurses to perform at their best. This study examines the relationship between QNWL job satisfaction, and nurse performance. QNWL refers to the level of comfort, well-being, and support experienced by nurses in their work environment. Meanwhile, job satisfaction is a key factor that drives nurses to perform their work optimally. This study employed a quantitative correlational approach, involving 95 nurses from X Hospital in Surakarta, selected through purposive sampling. Nurses’ performance, job satisfaction, and QNWL were measured using standardized scales and analyzed via multiple linear regression. The results revealed a significant relationship between QNWL and job satisfaction with nurses’ performance (R = 0.584, F = 23.847, p = 0.000). Specifically, QNWL had a positive correlation with nursing performance (r = 0.517, p = 0.000), and job satisfaction also had a positive correlation with nursing performance (r = 0.553, p = 0.000). These results indicate that QNWL and job satisfaction significantly contribute to improved nursing performance.
