Abstract

The Village Cash-for-Work (PKTD) program is an independently managed empowerment initiative for low-income communities, aimed at creating jobs to alleviate unemployment and poverty in rural areas. This study evaluates the effectiveness of the cash-for-work program in a coastal village. A descriptive-qualitative research method was employed, utilizing observation, interviews, documentation, and focus group discussions (FGDs) to assess effectiveness and propose policy model recommendations. SWOT analysis was used to inform decision-making by considering the internal and external factors influencing the program's effectiveness. According to Budiani, the four indicators of effectiveness are target accuracy, program dissemination, program objectives, and program monitoring. The findings indicate that the PKTD program in Bheramari Village successfully met the indicators for program dissemination and sustainability. However, the indicators for target accuracy and program objectives were not adequately met; the program engaged only 26% of the local workforce predominantly skilled laborers and failed to address the coastal village's primary needs. Consequently, affirmative policy measures are required to increase worker participation, alongside the implementation of activities tailored to local needs through an assessment of the area's specific characteristics.
