Selain daripada komuniti, penjawat awam juga dilihat mempunyai peranan yang besar untuk memelihara kebersihan persekitaran di tempat kerja melalui penjimatan perbelanjaan bagi urus tadbir negara. Oleh itu, kajian ini dijalankan adalah untuk mengenal pasti tujuh faktor kontekstual yang mempengaruhi amalan kitar semula dalam kalangan penjawat awam di negeri Melaka. Data kuantitatif diperoleh melalui soal selidik manakala data kualitatif adalah melalui temu bual bagi menyokong data kuantitatif. Kajian ini menggunakan kaedah pensampelan bertujuan ke atas 365 orang penjawat awam kerajaan negeri Melaka. Dapatan kajian kuantitatif dianalisis dengan menggunakan perisian SPSS 20. Dapatan kajian menunjukkan faktor kontekstual pengetahuan terhadap amalan kitar semula dalam kalangan penjawat awam kerajaan negeri Melaka adalah tinggi (M=4.41; SP=0.65) diikuti dengan menjaga alam sekitar (M=4.29; SP=0.66), pengasingan sisa pepejal (M=3.75; SP=0.69), kempen kitar semula (M=3.71; SP=0.70), menjana pendapatan sampingan (M=3.59; SP=0.70), pengaruh sosial (M=3.50; SP=0.67) manakala faktor kontekstual kemudahan kitar semula (M=3.35; SP=0.91) adalah yang paling rendah. Penemuan hasil kajian ini dapat membantu organisasi dan jabatan untuk mempelbagaikan promosi, kempen dan aktiviti kitar semula bagi mendorong penjawat awam mengamalkan kitar semula dalam konteks yang lebih luas lagi.

ABSTRACT
Cleanliness is one of the important aspects to make Malaysia on par with developed countries. Apart from the community, civil servants are also seen to have a big role to play in maintaining the cleanliness of the workplace environment through cost savings for national governance. Therefore, this study was conducted to identify seven contextual factors that influence recycling practices among civil servants in the state of Melaka. Quantitative data was obtained through questionnaires while qualitative data was through interviews to support the quantitative data. This study uses a sampling method aimed at 365 civil servants of the Melaka State government. The findings of the quantitative study were analyzed using SPSS 20 software. The findings showed that the contextual factor of knowledge on recycling practices among Melaka state government civil servants was high (M=4.41; SD=0.65) followed by caring for the environment (M=4.29; SD=0.66), solid waste segregation (M=3.75 ; SD=0.69), recycling campaigns (M=3.71; SD=0.70), generating ancillary income (M=3.59; SD=0.70), social influence (M=3.50; SD=0.67) while contextual factors of recycling facilities (M=3.35; SD=0.91) was the lowest. The findings of this study can help organizations and departments to diversify promotions, campaigns, and recycling activities to encourage civil servants to practice recycling in a broader context.
