Abstract
Public Sector Organizations played a major role in a Country^s policy towards the handling and the recovery of COVID-19 pandemic impact, making maintaining Public Service Motivation (PSM) would be vital to deliver effective policy. This article examines Public Service Motivation and Employee Wellbeing that are influenced by public sector closely-related variables such as Workplace Spirituality, Organizational Identification, and Workforce Agility. Study captured 343 samples of a public sector organization employees from Indonesia and tested using Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) for mediation hypothesis, and t-value with Standard Loading Factor (SLF) for direct effect. The result shows that Workplace Spirituality significantly influenced other research variables directly, and argues that spirituality in the public sector played a major role in determining other variables. On the other hand, Employee Well-Being wasn^t affected by agility or Organizational Identification, or impacted PSM. This result shows that with the ^calling^ of Public Sector Employees to serve the public, they usually set aside their Well-Being to give optimum service towards the public. Further studies also suggested deepening the Well-Being role in Public Sector Motivation with wider HRM variables.
