The development of human resources in the government environment is supporting the success of the implementation of government programs. The Regency Secretary and his staff assist the Regent in carrying out government, administrative, organizational and administrative arrangements as well as providing administrative services to all Bintan Regency Officials. In carrying out its duties and responsibilities, the Regency Secretariat has a lot of work done outside his duties and responsibilities outside of his job duties, but supports the smooth running of his work. In responding to this, high organizational citizenship behavior is needed for the executor of the task.

While the indirect effect also shows that locus of control influences organizational citizenship behavior through organizational commitment.
