Data was collected fi·om 420 employees using self-administered questionnaires and analysed vvith Smart PLS 4.0. T he results showed that financial motivation was positively related to job performance. At the same time, workplace happiness and mindfulness were also positiYely associated with job performance and mediated the relationship between financial motivation and job performance. The result emphasizes workplace mindfulness and employees' happiness as crucial mediators of financial motiYation and hence influences job performance. These findings support the importance of intrinsic motiYation factor s, such as workplace happiness and mindfulness in enhancing job performance.
