production
Tricky, because there's no exact equivalent. It's being contrasted with Führungsarbeit, management, which is telling people what to do, and it means carrying out hands-on tasks, though not necessarily making things on a conveyor belt. In software, for example, a production environment is a real-life one in which work actually gets carried out, in contrast to (say) a test environment.
Example sentence:
Handlungsarbeit ist Tätigkeit, die der Produktion dient.
Ich danke allen Kolleginnen und Kollegen für die kreative Denk- und Handlungsarbeit
