Abstract: This study sheds light on the relationship between technology factors and employee performance impact. The current study develops an integrated technology model underpinned task technology fit (TTF) and technology acceptance model (TAM) to investigate employee performance impact in Saudi public organisations. This study goes a step further and examined the moderating effect of self-efficacy between internet usage and employee satisfaction. Structural equation modelling (SEM) was used for statistical analysis. Findings revealed that altogether technology acceptance model and task technology fit explained R² 54.7% variance in internet usage and R² 60.9% variance in employee performance. Results also confirmed that self-efficacy moderate the relationship between internet usage and employee satisfaction. This study is unique as it contributes to information system literature and confirmed two-well known technology theories (TTF and TAM) with relation to employee performance impact.

Keywords: task technology fit; TTF; technology acceptance model; TAM; satisfaction; internet usage; performance impact; structural equation modelling; SEM.
