<![CDATA[This community service initiative addressed reproductive health challenges faced by working women, particularly those of reproductive age, including limited access to information, social stigma, and the double burden of employment and domestic responsibilities. The activity aimed to strengthen participants’ knowledge, awareness, and practical skills in managing reproductive health and understanding its relationship with work productivity and quality of life. Approximately 35 participants attended, comprising members of Dharma Wanita Persatuan (DWP) and female staff of BBKHIT Papua, alongside personnel from other BBKHIT offices who joined virtually. Using a descriptive qualitative approach, the program combined interactive case-based lectures, question-and-answer sessions that accommodated anonymous questions, and discussions of participants’ experiences. Data were collected through observations during the activity and analyzed descriptively by comparing participants’ initial knowledge with their responses after the presentations and discussions. Findings suggested that participants possessed basic knowledge of reproductive health and productivity but needed greater understanding of healthy lifestyle practices and ways to maintain safe, sustainable productivity. Following the sessions, participants demonstrated improved understanding of reproductive health maintenance, physiological changes in women, the relationship between reproductive health and productivity, the value of regular medical examinations, and the application of healthy practices in everyday life. The discussions also created opportunities for participants to exchange experiences and identify workplace health needs. These findings reflect participants’ observed responses rather than standardized measures of learning. Overall, the initiative contributed to reproductive health education among female employees and offered input for strengthening workplace health facilities and support at BBKHIT Papua.]]>
