The study population consists of all non-prosecutor or administrative functional employees at the Aceh High Prosecutor's Office, totaling 151 employees. The sample size was determined using a census technique, in which the entire population was included as the research sample. Accordingly, the final sample consisted of 151 employees. The findings of this study indicate that locus of control has a significant effect on job satisfaction, and the Information Technology Utilization also positively influences job satisfaction. Furthermore, both locus of control and the Information Technology Utilization significantly impact employee performance. Job satisfaction, in turn, has a direct positive effect on employee performance. Additionally, job satisfaction serves as a mediating variable in the relationship between locus of control and employee performance, as well as in the relationship between the Information Technology Utilization and employee performance. .
