Abstract

Purpose: This study evaluates the effectiveness of the Special Autonomy Fund Assistance Program in improving the welfare of Indigenous Papuans in the Kwamki Narama District, Mimika Regency, focusing on education, health, and the economy. Method: A descriptive quantitative approach was applied with 100 respondents from 10 villages, selected using the Slovin formula. Data were gathered through Likert-scale questionnaires and in-depth interviews with key stakeholders and analyzed using descriptive statistics to assess welfare improvements. Results: The findings show improvements in education (mean = 3.67) and health (mean = 3.85), reflecting better access to schools, educational support, and healthcare services. However, the economic dimension showed limited progress (mean = 3.13), with minimal impact on job opportunities, income, and household needs. The overall welfare score was 3.55, suggesting a moderately positive perception of the program. Conclusions: The program has effectively enhanced education and health but has not significantly improved economic empowerment of women. Broader strategies are needed to strengthen economic opportunities and achieve sustainable and equitable welfare outcomes. Limitations: The findings rely on perceptions within one district, limiting generalization to other Papuan regions, and do not consider qualitative factors such as cultural or governance dynamics that may affect the outcomes. Contribution: This study contributes empirical evidence to the discussion on regional autonomy, highlighting the partial success of Papua’s Special Autonomy Fund and the need for policy adjustments to better integrate economic empowerment and social development.

Abstract

Purpose: This study aims to examine the determinants of employee productivity at the Regional Planning and Development Agency (Bappeda) in Mimika Regency. Specifically, it investigates (1) the relationship between salary and employee productivity, (2) the relationship between work relationships and employee productivity, (3) the effect of the work environment on productivity, and (4) the impact of promotion on productivity. Research Methodology: A quantitative method using SEM-PLS correlational analysis was applied. Data were obtained via a Likert-scale questionnaire. The study conducted validity, reliability, and hypothesis testing to assess relationship strength and significance among variables, ensuring robust measurement and accurate evaluation of the proposed research model. Results: The study found salary (X?) negatively influenced productivity, indicating the need to reassess compensation. Work relationships (X?) and environment (X?) positively affected productivity, highlighting collaboration and supportive conditions. Promotion (X?) showed no significant effect, suggesting weaknesses in promotion mechanisms requiring attention to improve organizational motivation and employee outcome. Conclusions: Employee productivity is more strongly influenced by relational and environmental factors than salary and promotion. Therefore, organizational improvements should focus on fostering positive relationships and enhancing the physical and psychological work environments. Limitations: This study was limited to a single regional agency, which may have affected the generalizability of the findings. Additionally, the cross-sectional design does not capture the long-term dynamics. Contribution: This study contributes to the public sector human resource management literature by highlighting the relative importance of workplace relationships and conditions over financial and promotional factors in improving employee productivity.
