This study examines the influence of motivation and job satisfaction on employee performance at the Ministry of Religious Affairs in Maluku Province. Motivation and job satisfaction are critical factors that drive employee productivity and create a conducive work environment. Using quantitative methods, data were analyzed through regression tests, including T-test, F-test, and determination coefficient analysis, to explore the relationships between these variables. The results indicate that motivation has a strong and significant positive effect on employee performance, supported by a regression coefficient of 0.661 and a significance level of p < 0.001. Similarly, job satisfaction also significantly impacts performance, with a coefficient of 0.325 and p < 0.001, although its influence is comparatively lower than motivation. The simultaneous effect of motivation and job satisfaction was confirmed by an F-value of 396.748 and an R² of 0.922, indicating that 92.2% of the variation in employee performance can be explained by these two factors. The findings emphasize the importance of fostering both motivation and job satisfaction to improve employee performance effectively. Therefore, organizations should develop policies that enhance motivation through rewards and career development opportunities, as well as improve job satisfaction by ensuring supportive working conditions and recognizing employee contributions.

The objective of this research is to understand how the stunting reduction policy is implemented by the Health Office in West Seram Regency. The issue to be addressed in this research is: How is the implementation of the stunting reduction policy by the Health Office in West Seram Regency? This research involved eight informants. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, observation, and documentation. The collected data were analyzed using a descriptive qualitative analysis technique with a case study approach. Based on the policy implementation theory by Edward III, which includes four variables: Communication, Resources, Disposition, and Bureaucracy.

In terms of communication, policy communication has been conducted through various media, but it has not reached the entire community. Limited resources, especially nutrition personnel and supporting facilities, are the main obstacles. The disposition of implementers is fairly good, but the lack of incentives hampers work motivation. Regarding bureaucracy, the appointment process of bureaucrats is carried out based on competence with reporting systems through the e-PPGBM application, but cross-sectoral coordination remains ineffective.
