Person-Organization Fit and Task Performance among Muslim Government Servants with Myasthenia Gravis in Perak: The Moderating Role of Work Involvement

Abstract

This study examines the relationship between person-organization fit (POF) and task performance among Muslim government servants with Myasthenia Gravis (MG) in Perak, with work involvement as a moderating variable. MG is a chronic neuromuscular disorder that causes muscle weakness and fatigue, often affecting employees’ ability to sustain task performance. Understanding how organizational alignment influences performance among individuals with such conditions is crucial for effective workforce management.
A total of 320 questionnaires were distributed through the Malaysia MG Support Group, and 275 valid responses were analyzed using SPSS. Reliability tests showed strong internal consistency (Cronbach’s alpha: POF = 0.92, Task Performance = 0.89, Work Involvement = 0.91). Correlation results indicated significant positive relationships among all variables. Regression analysis revealed that POF significantly predicts task performance (β = 0.58, p < 0.001), and work involvement positively moderates this relationship (β = 0.24, p < 0.01).
