From the results of data analysis conducted using path analysis it can be seen that, 1) there is a significantly positive direct effect between punishment on work discipline where tcount> ttable (3.492> 1.995) with Sig. 0.001 <0.05 and the Beta Path coefficient 0.395, which means the category of influence is strong. 2) there is a significant positive direct effect between punishment on employee performance where 2.159> 1.995 with Sig. 0.038 <0.05 and the Beta Path coefficient of 0.244 is in the medium category. 3) Then, there is a significantly positive direct effect between work discipline on employee performance where 3,591> 1,995 with Sig. 0.001 <0.05 and the Beta Path coefficient of 0.405 is categorized as strong. 4) and it is also known, that there is an indirect effect between punishment on employee performance obtained from the multiplication results between the path coefficient X to Y with the path coefficient Y to Z (0.395× 0.405) that is equal to 0.159 in the medium category.
