Employee performance is a key determinant of organizational success, and understanding the internal factors that shape it is essential for effective management. The research employs a quantitative approach, with data collected through questionnaires distributed to 62 respondents representing employees of the company.

This study explores the relationship between religiosity and Organizational Citizenship Behavior (OCB) within contemporary organizations by adopting a positive psychology perspective. OCB is defined as discretionary behaviors by employees that go beyond their formal job duties and contribute positively to the overall functioning and success of the organization. Examples include helping colleagues, being punctual, and demonstrating initiative, which foster a cooperative and productive work environment. Religiosity, on the other hand, is understood as a belief system that shapes an individual’s values, attitudes, and behaviors, both intrinsically—stemming from internal spiritual commitment—and extrinsically—motivated by external social or cultural influences. Through a systematic review of ten national and international academic journals, this study identifies several common dimensions of OCB, such as altruism (helping others selflessly), civic virtue (active and responsible participation in organizational affairs), and conscientiousness (going beyond minimal job requirements). The findings reveal a consistent positive correlation between religiosity and OCB, especially in sectors like education, Islamic banking, and healthcare, where religious principles strongly influence organizational culture. The integration of religious values into organizational practices encourages employees to exhibit behaviors that promote harmony, ethical conduct, and a sense of community within the workplace. This is particularly evident in employees who possess high levels of intrinsic religiosity, as their internalized beliefs motivate them to engage in prosocial actions that benefit the organization. The study recommends that human resource management strategies incorporate religious or spiritual values to cultivate a positive organizational culture. Such integration can be achieved through training programs, leadership development, and reward systems that emphasize ethical behavior and social responsibility, ultimately leading to improved employee satisfaction, loyalty, and overall organizational performance.

The Three Threats to Reproductive Health (KRR Triad) refer to serious issues that can endanger adolescent reproductive health: sexually transmitted infections (STIs), HIV/AIDS, and drug abuse. These threats often lead to harmful consequences such as reproductive diseases, unintended pregnancies, abortion, and drug addiction. The root causes include insufficient knowledge among adolescents and negative attitudes toward prevention efforts. This Community Service initiative, titled Empowerment of Adolescents with Behavior Toward the Three Basic Threats to Reproductive Health (KRR Triad), was conducted in Bangun Rejo Village, Tanjung Morawa District, Deli Serdang Regency, in 2025. The program aimed to increase adolescents’ understanding of the KRR Triad, including its definitions, categories, impacts, and prevention strategies, while also fostering a proactive attitude among youth in addressing these threats. The participants were adolescents residing in Bangun Rejo Village. The activities were conducted from March to May 2025. The method involved a lecture-based educational session, accompanied by a pre-test and post-test to measure the participants’ knowledge and understanding. Prior to the intervention, 46.6% (14 participants) demonstrated poor knowledge regarding the KRR Triad. After the educational sessions, knowledge significantly improved, with 56.6% (17 participants) showing increased understanding. These findings indicate that structured education on reproductive health threats can effectively enhance adolescents' knowledge and potentially influence their behavior toward healthier choices. In conclusion, the community service program successfully empowered adolescents in Bangun Rejo Village with essential knowledge and awareness regarding the KRR Triad, underlining the importance of continuous reproductive health education to mitigate the risk of future health problems among youth

Breast Self-Examination (BSE/SADARI) is a practical and effective approach for the early identification of breast cancer, with the potential to reduce mortality rates by approximately 25–30%. Women who have limited Adequate understanding of breast cancer and Breast Self-Examination (BSE) necessitates appropriate health education beginning in adolescence. This study sought to assess and examine changes in the knowledge and skills of Women of Childbearing Age (WCA/WUS) in performing BSE before and after health education at the Butong Community Health Center, Central Kalimantan. This research employed an analytical survey design. The findings demonstrated a substantial improvement in participants’ knowledge of BSE, increasing from 21% in the good category during the pretest to 83% in the good category after the intervention. Prior to the educational session, 98% of WUS were unable to perform BSE correctly; however, following counseling, 95% were able to carry it out properly. The Wilcoxon test yielded a significance value of 0.000 (p < 0.05), indicating that the counseling intervention had a statistically significant impact on both knowledge and practical ability related to BSE. Therefore, collaboration among village authorities, healthcare providers, and the community is strongly recommended to routinely conduct educational programs in order to enhance awareness and skills in the early detection of breast cancer.

This study aims to describe and analyze the level of community compliance in paying Land and Building Tax (PBB) from a social and cultural perspective. A qualitative approach was used with a case study method in one of the villages in region X which has varying levels of compliance. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and documentation, with key informants consisting of taxpayers, community leaders, and village officials. The results of the study indicate that community compliance with PBB payments is not solely influenced by economic and regulatory factors, but also by social values ​​such as mutual cooperation, trust in local government, and cultural norms that live in the community. In addition, perceptions of tax fairness and the real benefits of paying taxes also influence community attitudes. These findings indicate the importance of a cultural approach in tax compliance improvement strategies, especially in areas with strong social characteristics. This study recommends the need for contextual and collaborative PBB socialization with local leaders to build tax awareness based on local values.
