The data collection technique employed a questionnaire measured by five Likert scales. The data in this study were then processed using the multiple linear regression method.
Research findings: The study uncovered that all CG principles, i.e., transparency, accountability, responsibility, independence, and fairness, positively influenced employee performance.
Theoretical contribution/Originality: This study contributes to the development of BMT management in Indonesia to start or improve the implementation of corporate governance since it positively impacts employee performance.
Practitioner/Policy implication: BMT has challenges related to human resource competence. The organization (BMT) can evaluate the implementation of GCG in its operational activities because it can affect employee performance.
