For mediating effect, the result showed that adab is the intermediary factor between the Islamic spiritual development program and Islamic workplace (z= 3.599, p < 0.05). The results show that there is no moderating effect on the staff categories (t=0.656), Islamic education (t=1.309) and income (t=1.325) between adab and Islamic workplace.
