Abstract: Motivation is a factor that determines the performance of health workers in most hospitals. Given this, sufficient motivational policies have been developed to emphasize the work performance of employees in the health system. The Romanian medical system is defined by low budgets and by inefficient use of public resources. The purpose of this article is to examine the impact of motivation and to identify how intrinsic and extrinsic motivating factors affect the performance of employees in the health system. Understanding what motivates health workers and supporting them in ways that help increase motivation is important. The key findings of the study revealed that job satisfaction, logistics supply and an attractive work environment are intrinsic motivators that contribute to job performance. Extrinsic factors such as financial rewards influence work performance. Moreover, motivation is essential for achieving performance. It is recommended to adopt motivational policies based on intrinsic (education, traininig, professional development opportunities, social recognition, career progression) and extrinsic motivational factors (salaries, working, living conditions, payment systems, benefits and allowances).
