This study examines religious practices on the work ethic of Sociology students of Surabaya State University (Unesa) class of 2021 who are undergoing internships in various government agencies of Surabaya City. Humans have two basic aspects, namely physical and spiritual, both of which require fulfillment through work and religion. While physical needs are met through work, spiritual needs are met through religious teachings that provide moral and ethical principles in life. Religious values, such as discipline, responsibility, honesty, and integrity, serve as strong drivers of work ethic in personal and professional contexts. This study uses a descriptive qualitative method with phenomenological techniques in social. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with 15 interns in various government agencies of Surabaya City. Data analysis was carried out by horizontalization, textural and structural descriptions, and descriptions of the meaning of phenomena. The validity of the data was guaranteed through source triangulation and member checking.

The results of the study indicate that religion plays an important role in shaping students' work ethic, motivation, and social adaptation in the internship. Religious practices, such as obligatory and sunnah worship, and charity activities, contribute to improving the quality of performance and social relationships. Religion is seen as a guideline for life that provides moral and ethical direction, helping students carry out internship tasks with discipline, responsibility, and integrity. The implementation of religious values, such as patience and sincerity, has a positive impact on motivation and work spirit, and helps reduce stress and face challenges in the internship.
