Unemployment remains a major social and economic challenge in regional development in Indonesia. High unemployment can contribute to poverty, social inequality, and declining community productivity. This study aims to analyze the role of public policy in reducing regional unemployment and identify factors affecting policy implementation. The study employed a qualitative method with a descriptive approach. Data were obtained through a literature review of scientific journals, books, government documents, and other relevant sources. Data were collected through documentation and literature studies and analyzed descriptively through data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The findings indicate that job training, Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprise (MSME) development, regional investment, and labor-intensive programs contribute to expanding employment opportunities and strengthening community economic capacity. Job training improves workforce competencies according to labor market needs, while MSME development and regional investment encourage the creation of new employment opportunities. However, policy implementation continues to face challenges, including limited budgets and facilities, weak inter-agency coordination, targeting problems, and mismatches between workforce competencies and labor market demands. Therefore, stronger collaboration among government institutions, the private sector, educational institutions, and communities is needed through needs-based planning, competency development, and continuous monitoring and evaluation to ensure that unemployment reduction policies are effective, targeted, and sustainable.
