Abstract

This study discusses the quality of the implementation of the Free Nutritious Meal Program (MBG) in Blitar City which is influenced by labor absorption, work motivation, and worker productivity in the perspective of sharia economics. This study aims to analyze the influence of labor absorption, work motivation, and worker productivity on the quality of the implementation of the MBG Program. The research method used is a quantitative approach with the type of associative research. The research population amounted to 550 workers and volunteers in 11 MBG kitchens in Blitar City with a sample of 121 respondents determined using purposive sampling techniques. Data collection techniques were carried out through questionnaires and documentation, while data analysis used validity, reliability, multiple linear regression tests, t-tests, F tests, and determination coefficients with the help of the EViews application. The results showed that labor absorption had a significant effect on the quality of program implementation with a significance value of 0.0074, work motivation had a significant effect with a significance value of 0.0134, and worker productivity had the most dominant influence with a significance value of 0.0000. Simultaneously, the three independent variables had a significant effect on the quality of the implementation of the MBG Program with an F-calculated value of 91.60139 and a significance of 0.000000. The Adjusted R-Squared value of 0.693725 indicates that 69.37% of program quality can be explained by all three independent variables. This study concludes that the application of trust values, justice, professionalism, and Islamic work ethic plays an important role in improving the quality of the implementation of the Free Nutritious Meal Program in Blitar City.
