This study investigates the influence of employee engagement, digital training, and reward systems on employee productivity at the Central Statistics Agency of Kediri Regency. The research adopts a quantitative approach with a questionnaire as the primary data collection tool. A total of 33 employees participated as respondents, determined using a saturated sampling technique, which ensures that all members of the population were included. The instrument utilized was a Likert-scale questionnaire, designed to capture perceptions and experiences related to engagement, training, and rewards. The data were analyzed using multiple linear regression to measure both the partial and simultaneous effects of the independent variables on productivity. The results reveal that employee engagement plays a significant role in enhancing productivity, with a significance value of 0.003. Similarly, digital training and reward systems also exert a positive and significant influence, with significance values of 0.037 and 0.0002, respectively. When tested simultaneously, the three independent variables collectively demonstrate a substantial impact on employee productivity, as evidenced by an F-value of 76.069. Furthermore, the Adjusted R Square value of 87.6% indicates that the research model possesses strong explanatory power, meaning that most variations in productivity can be explained by employee engagement, digital training, and reward systems. These findings highlight the strategic importance of integrating engagement initiatives, continuous digital skill development, and fair reward mechanisms to foster higher levels of productivity. For organizations, particularly government institutions, the study underscores the necessity of adopting a holistic human resource development framework that addresses both intrinsic and extrinsic motivational factors to maximize employee performance.

Global economic issues have significantly impacted national economic progress in recent decades, especially for developing countries such as Indonesia.  Currency exchange rates are one of the main variables that influence this economic process.  The performance of a country's external sector is largely determined by the exchange rate, which also affects a number of other macroeconomic factors.  The purpose of this study is to see how much Indonesia's economic growth is affected by the exchange rate between 1980 and 2023. Data from government agencies including the Central Bureau of Statistics and Bank Indonesia are used in this quantitative approach using a literature study approach.  The findings show that changes in the value of the rupiah, especially when depreciation occurs, have a significant influence on a number of economic factors, such as imports, exports, inflation, domestic investment, and consumption.  The competitiveness of Indonesian export goods in the global market increases with the depreciation of the exchange rate. At the same time, however, it also leads to higher prices for imported goods, increases the burden of foreign debt, and depresses people's purchasing power and domestic investment activity. The last five years of data reflect the fluctuating pattern of Indonesia's international trade, which is closely related to exchange rate conditions and global economic dynamics. Exchange rate instability creates economic uncertainty, which can hamper long-term growth. Therefore, stabilizing the exchange rate and strengthening the export sector are important strategies, supported by monetary and fiscal policies that are adaptive to global changes.
