Purpose – This study aimed to determine the determinants of employee performance at Zainoel Abidin General Hospital, and how it affects the employee performance at this hospital. In addition, to find out whether the extra role can serve as a moderating variable on the influence of high-performance work practices on employee performance.

Design/methodology/approach – The sampling technique used in this study is simple probability sampling. The sample count is 217, calculated using the Slovin formula with an error rate of 5%. Primary data collection is carried out using a 5-point questionnaire on the Likert scale and depth interview with several key informants information from the in-depth interview can also be used to support finding from quantitative analysis.  It is processed using AMOS 26.0.

Findings – There is a significant effect of high-performance work practices (HWP) on employee engagement and employee performance. The effect of employee engagement on employee performance is also significant. When compared between these two determinant variables and their effect on employee performance, the high-performance work practice (HWP) has a larger magnitude so that the impact on improving employee performance will be greater than employee involvement. The results of testing moderating hypotheses also show significant results. The employee's extra role can increase the magnitude of the influence of high-performance work practices on employee performance and employee involvement in employee performance.

Limitations/research implications – Future research can develop a wider sample of hospital customers that is not only limited scope in one city but several cities within the Aceh province so that the findings will be more comprehensive.

Originality/value – During this time, most strategic HWP research focused more on the manufacturing sector that cannot be generalized to the service sector because of its different characteristics. In this study, the author applied the concept of HWP to the service sector (health services in hospitals).
