Alharthi et al., 2019) (Schermerhorn et al., 2005) Job performance is additionally considered as the conduct in question while working (Jex and Britt, 2014; Alharthi et al., 2020) Different variables that influence work execution incorporate individual and natural (Byar and Rue, 2011; Rahmah et al., 2020) capacity and inspiration (Mangkunegara and Prabu, 2005) Singular variables incorporate exertion, capacity and job/task discernment Ecological elements incorporate the states of being, gear, time, managers and others The capacity factor comprises of the capacity (IQ) and the capacity of information and aptitudes while rousing component is the person's demeanour in confronting business related circumstances (Alkheyi et al., 2020; Alkhateri et al., 2019) Concerning execution with regards to organizations June and Mahmood (2011) affirmed that performance is a significant factor in the administration of representatives (Hossain et al., 2020; Almatrooshi et al., 2020; Khalifa, 2020) It has consistently been a key component in an association's greatness 2.2 Compensation Scheme Compensation consists of two main components; financial compensation and non-financial compensation Financial compensation involves monetary incentives, which an employee CUeJAR Volume | Issue | 2020 City University eJournal of Academic Research (CUeJAR), 2(1) 2020; 162-XX achieved due to his excellent performance at work On the other hand, non-financial compensations comprise of career development, job design, training and participation, working environment, and recognition (Baeten, 2010; Spaans, 2010; Prasetya & Kato, 2011) According to Hameed and Waheed (2011), an employee is the most crucial element of an organization as the success of it depends on the employees’ performance (Khalifa, 2019; Al-Shibami et al., 2019) To develop the employee’s performance, the majority of the resources of an organization are used (Alameri et al., 2019) The performance is an idea depicting how a man can utilize his particular potential or genuine information, skills, and capacities with a specific end goal to achieve the objectives or desires (Mohamed et al., 2018, 2019) 2.3 Quality of Work Life Quality of work life (QWL) alludes to the favourableness or unfavourableness of an occupation domain for individuals It alludes to the nature of a connection among representatives and the complete workplace It is worried about expanding work the executive’s cooperatives to take care of the issues of improving hierarchical performance and worker responsibility The term nature of work life was first presented by Davis and Albert (1972) during the International Labor Relations Conference (Hain and Einstein, 1990) Lately, the nature of work life (QWL) is progressively being recognized as a dynamic pointer identified with the capacity and supportability of business associations (Koonmee, et al., 2010) Research Methodology Research is a bit by bit strategy to give a superior understanding of an issue or issue by gathering and breaking down information and gaining information (Creswell, 2012; Matthews and Ross, 2010; Paniel, 2015) Research design is a work plan which remembers the total procedure for detail to ensure the gathered information can precisely respond to the research questions As referenced by Sekaran and Bougie's (2016), utilizing the right methodology will fundamentally fortify the estimation of the exploration results Sekaran and Bougie's (2016) research model depicted the causal relationship among factors as opposed to portraying factors as either cause or impact whereby the reason is the free factor while the bearing of the impact (subordinate variable) can be either be positive or negative in nature Along these lines, to draw an amazing and persuading end with the capacity to respond to the research questions, the exploration configuration ought to be arranged by the examination issue, questions, destinations, and theories Considering the exploration targets, this investigation means to decide the effect of pay plan and nature of work life towards work execution in Royal Malaysian Police, IPK Selangor Thusly, this study is a causal exploration that searching for in testing circumstances and logical results connection between variables Target survey is police personnel in all ranking located at IPK, Selangor The main reason for the researcher to choose all ranked is that having higher responsibilities and expose toward greater task that requires greater job performance CUeJAR Volume | Issue | 2020 City University eJournal of Academic Research (CUeJAR), 2(1) 2020; 162-XX Data Analysis and Findings The information assortment that was done through the review technique, which is utilizing the survey that included 412 respondents, is to build the probabilities of gathering the information The complete reaction rate recorded is 30.68% A reaction rate over the half is adequate to direct (Hair et.al 2010) and in this study the reaction pace of 30.68% is adequate to finish the investigation From the total number of respondents is 412 police personnel, and percentage of male is 68.7% and 31.3% were female and showing the highest rate for male in policing field The highest age recorded is 31-40 years forming 43.7%, followed by 24.5% respondents from age 25-30 years, then, 17.0% from age 41-50 and lastly is 14.8% from respondents age from age 51 years old and above The highest rate for rank between the police personnel is Corporal that recorded 34.2%, followed by Lans Corporal (27.7%), others (high rank officer) (19.7%), Sergeant (10.9%), Inspector (7.5%) For Years of Service in Police, the range above 16 years recorded the high rate (45.9%), 11 to 15 years (22.1%), - 10 years (16.3%) and below than years (15.8%) Further to the above, the analysis of the data is also base on the result of the test for dependent variable and independent variables, the requirements of Cronbach Alpha must more than 0.7 and acceptable to conduct the research (Salkin, 2009) The Cronbanch Alpha value is within the range of 0.8 and 0.9 is very good and acceptable for conduct the research (Salkin, 2009) If the reliability of the Cronbach Alpha smaller than 0.6 the valued is poor (Salkin, 2009) Table illustrates the summary of reliability results Thus, the Cronbach Alpha for the study was job performance; 943, compensation scheme; 943 and quality work life; 892 with all the variables having items of measurement Included from the abovementioned, the descriptive analysis was done in distinguish the general scope of answer for each build and assists with clarifying the qualities of the respondents in this study The reactions that got in this study recorded 1.00 in the base reaction and 5.0 in the greatest estimation of reaction in this investigation Other than that, the estimation of mean was measure on a five Likert scale, which implies the higher number on the five-point scale, will be higher the decency of the variable On the off chance that the appropriate response is closer to five, will give a positive answer, and if the appropriate response near zero mirrors a negative idea from the respondents In addition, if the value of mean is more than indicates a high agreement, less than were considered as low agreement and mean value of was considered as a moderate agreement In this study, the highest value of mean is 4.1702 for job performance and the lowest value is at 3.5021 which is compensation scheme Table below presented a descriptive analysis in this study CUeJAR Volume | Issue | 2020 City University eJournal of Academic Research (CUeJAR), 2(1) 2020;
