This study examines the influence of workplace spirituality, personality, and organizational commitment on employee mental well-being at the East Java I Regional Tax Office. Using a quantitative approach with a causal associative design, this research involved a census of 180 employees. Data were collected through structured questionnaires measured on a five-point Likert scale and analyzed using multiple linear regression with SPSS version 20. Workplace spirituality was measured through meaningful work, sense of community, and value alignment; personality was assessed based on the Big Five dimensions; organizational commitment comprised affective, continuance, and normative components; and mental well-being encompassed emotional, psychological, and social well-being. The results indicate that workplace spirituality, personality, and organizational commitment each have a positive and significant effect on employee mental well-being. Simultaneously, all independent variables significantly influence mental well-being, demonstrating strong explanatory power of the proposed model. This study extends prior research by integrating these psychological and organizational factors within a Positive Organizational Behavior framework in a high-pressure public tax institution context. The findings offer practical implications for public sector management, particularly in designing workplace spirituality initiatives, strengthening affective commitment, and supporting employees psychological resilience to sustain mental well-being in demanding organizational environments.

Conclusion

The study concludes that workplace spirituality, personality, and organizational commitment significantly and positively influence employee mental well-being.These factors collectively explain a substantial portion of the variance in employee mental well-being within the East Java I Regional Tax Office.Therefore, fostering a work environment that prioritizes meaning, individual strengths, and emotional connection is crucial for supporting the psychological health of employees in high-pressure public sector settings.

Future Research

Further research should investigate the mediating role of leadership styles in the relationship between workplace spirituality, personality, and employee mental well-being, exploring how different leadership approaches can amplify or diminish these effects. Additionally, longitudinal studies are needed to examine the dynamic interplay between these variables over time, assessing how changes in workplace spirituality or organizational commitment impact employee mental health trajectories. Finally, future studies could explore the effectiveness of targeted interventions, such as mindfulness training or resilience-building workshops, designed to enhance employee psychological capital and promote mental well-being within the specific context of high-demand public sector organizations, considering the unique challenges and pressures faced by tax office employees. These investigations will contribute to a more nuanced understanding of the factors influencing employee mental health and inform the development of evidence-based strategies for creating supportive and thriving work environments.
