ABSTRACT
This study underscores the significance of assessing the capabilities of rehabilitation officers in navigating challenges, devising innovative work methods, and successfully executing the rehabilitation process. This is particularly crucial amid the dual challenges of overcapacity and the repercussions of the Covid-19 pandemic, making it an essential area for research. To be specific, it aims to obtain empirical evidence about the influence of proactive personality and supportive supervision on proactive work behavior, as well as the mediating role of Role Breadth Self-efficacy and Change Orientation. This research was conducted on all rehabilitation officers at the Narcotics Penitentiary in Sumatra, totaling 272 respondents. This study employs a quantitative method via a questionnaire using a purposive sampling technique. The data was subsequently examined using the Lisrel 8.70 software and Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). It can be concluded from the results that the rehabilitation officers for narcotics addicts at the Narcotics Penitentiary can create and improve proactive work behavior properly through the influence of proactive personality, supportive supervision, role breadth self-efficacy, and change orientation. The study may suggest new ways of working and generate new ideas to increase initiative, encourage feedback, and voice employee concerns. Furthermore, this research has the potential to pinpoint deficiencies in proactive work behavior, serving as a foundation for designing interventions or training programs. These initiatives aim to enhance the innovative and creative contributions of rehabilitation officers in the rehabilitation process.
