The presence of plastic in today's contemporary era, has various functions that greatly help people's lives. Plastic with all its properties, which are more inclined to the many advantages of its use and flexibility so that it is easy to use in various fields of life. With this fact, there are more and more products that rely on plastic as a basic ingredient in the manufacture of their products. This is of course supported by very high market demand, so that all types of production of goods made from plastic are mushrooming. If we return to our original purpose, the creation of plastic was indeed used as a substitute for paper bags, which at that time was experiencing a crisis of threats due to the increasing number of illegal logging incidents, so that there was a potential for the scarcity of the trees themselves. However, the opposite is currently true, where the use and production of plastics is increasingly dominating, making the remaining production waste and waste resulting from its use even more insurmountable. This is compounded by the fact that plastic is difficult to decompose, requiring hundreds of years of time. This, in the concept of a risk society is called the boomerang effect, because something that existed in the industrial era was created as a form of innovation that exists as a solution, but in the modern era like now it has become a separate risk for the surrounding community. For various phenomena as a result of the creation of plastic itself, society does not necessarily let them slowly be swallowed up by existing risks, but there are many efforts to create innovations as a way to protect themselves from various risks distributed by production and the increasingly widespread use of plastic in today's reality.

This study aims to examine why seafarers engage in simultaneous tasks, which may lead to accidents. In an exploratory qualitative study, face-to-face interviews were conducted with selective and targeted seafarers previously involved in maritime accidents. The collected data were analysed using interpretive and descriptive qualitative methods with a socio-cultural approach. The findings of this study show that the substantial regulatory changes over the years in the maritime industry have resulted in increased occupational workload for seafarers. Some of these regulatory barriers designed to improve safety at sea prompted seafarers to engage in simultaneous tasks to perform excessive paperwork and compensate for insufficient crewing.

The method used is qualitative descriptive research. The results of the study indicate that the strategy model for increasing IDM in Ciamis Regency still needs improvement in several aspects. In terms of environmental resilience, although there is no pollution, both underdeveloped and developing villages have the potential to be prone to landslides, with developing villages having disaster response efforts, while underdeveloped villages do not. In terms of economic resilience, developing villages show better livelihood diversity compared to underdeveloped villages, although both have sufficient access to trade facilities, but access to financial institutions is limited. In terms of social resilience, although access to education and health is relatively good in both types of villages, the BPJS membership rate is still low, and access to clean water, sanitation, and electricity has reached 100% in developing villages. Access to information and communication already exists, but is not optimal in both villages. This study concludes that increasing IDM requires strengthening environmental, economic, and social resilience that is more integrated and targeted.
