This study aims to analyze the social quality of the population in Medan Estate Village through three main indicators: life expectancy, employment conditions (salary), and education level. A quantitative approach was used, utilizing demographic and socioeconomic data obtained from relevant agencies and field surveys. The analysis results indicate that life expectancy in Medan Estate Village is in the fairly good category, supported by relatively adequate access to healthcare. However, job quality and income levels remain diverse, with the majority of residents working in the informal sector, which offers salaries below the regional average. The population's education level tends to increase, although intergenerational gaps remain. Overall, this study confirms that the social quality of the community in Medan Estate Village is influenced by the relationship between health conditions, economic capacity, and educational attainment. These findings are expected to inform the formulation of more targeted social development policies.

This study aims to describe and analyze the factors that influence employee job satisfaction at PT Trans Jaya Papua by employing a qualitative descriptive method supported by observation and semi-structured interviews with 12 employees across different departments. The findings reveal that job satisfaction arises from a combination of internal and external factors that interact to shape employees’ overall perceptions of their work. Internal factors consist of individual attitudes, motivation, and the quality of interpersonal relationships, all of which determine how employees respond to daily tasks and workplace dynamics. External factors include leadership style, salary, work environment, and organizational support, each playing a crucial role in shaping employees’ sense of stability and fairness. The results highlight that positive work attitudes and effective communication are the most dominant contributors to employee satisfaction, strengthened by adequate compensation and supportive supervision from leaders. The study concludes that job satisfaction can be further improved through transparent communication, equitable reward systems, and consistent leadership involvement in employee development. These findings provide practical implications for management, particularly in formulating more responsive human resource strategies aimed at enhancing employee performance and organizational effectiveness.

Business entities often face bankruptcy risks due to various factors, including accounting errors, limited experience, or small-cap transactions. The COVID-19 pandemic exacerbated financial conditions for many companies, such as PT Garuda Indonesia (Persero) Tbk., which experienced a significant revenue decline. Additionally, individuals may face bankruptcy due to reasons like job termination or business failures. The primary cause of bankruptcy lies in the imbalance between debt and income, often worsened by poor financial planning. Government regulations can help mitigate bankruptcy risks, such as through health insurance and credit restrictions. The bankruptcy process aims to provide fair resolutions between debtors and creditors while safeguarding public interests. Bankruptcy can also offer debtors the opportunity to restructure their debt, maintain economic stability, and prevent social loss. In practice, bankruptcy involves the management of the debtor's assets by a trustee and the proportional distribution of proceeds to creditors. The application of freedom of contract and legal certainty principles in debtor-creditor relationships is crucial to ensuring a transparent, efficient, and equitable process.

Job opportunities are available for prospective workers who are looking for work. The existence of job opportunities in an area will greatly open up opportunities for labor absorption, such as opening job opportunities for local inter-worker (AKL) workers, which is the placement of workers between regencies/cities working within one province. The research method used in this study is a descriptive research method with a qualitative approach. Data collection techniques were carried out through interviews, observations, and documentation at the Pematang Siantar City Manpower Office. All data obtained will be analyzed qualitatively with all data collected using the theory of Fred R. David (2019), namely Strategy Implementation with 3 variables, namely Strategy Development, Human Resource Allocation, and Determining Budget Funds. Based on the research that has been conducted, it can be seen that the Pematang Siantar City Manpower Office has attempted to provide the best solution by designing several programs to provide more job opportunities. Viewed from the development strategy perspective, the Manpower Office has realized several work programs such as job fair events held, competency-based training programs that are already running, and focusing on information about the labor market. The analysis revealed several shortcomings, including the government's inconsistency in implementing the program. Furthermore, the government's human resource allocation has been unable to improve the quality of human resources, particularly in Pematang Siantar City. Furthermore, the government's budget allocation has been ineffective in determining appropriate funding, resulting in limited funding and ineffective program implementation.

The findings of this study indicate that work environment, job satisfaction, and motivation simultaneously have a significant effect on the commitment of teachers and staff at Petukangan Selatan 01 Public Elementary School. This shows that a conducive work environment, such as adequate facilities, supportive colleagues, and a comfortable atmosphere, can increase the sense of belonging and loyalty among employees. Job satisfaction, which includes aspects such as fairness in rewards, recognition of achievements, and appropriate workloads, also contributes to strengthening work commitment. In addition, motivation, both intrinsic and extrinsic, plays a central role in encouraging employees to perform their duties with responsibility and enthusiasm. These findings also reinforce the importance of creating a balance between external factors (such as work environment) and internal factors (such as motivation and job satisfaction) to achieve strong commitment. Therefore, the implication of this research is that school management needs to continuously improve working conditions, develop fair reward systems, and provide opportunities for career development. By doing so, the commitment of teachers and staff can be maintained and even enhanced, which in turn will support the achievement of school goals more effectively.

This study aims to analyze the influence of work-family conflict, job stress, and compensation on employee performance at PT Nusa Gas Pratiwi. A quantitative approach with a survey method was employed, and data were collected through questionnaires distributed to 35 permanent employees. The data were analyzed using multiple linear regression with SPSS software. The results indicate that work-family conflict, job stress, and compensation have a positive and significant effect on employee performance both partially and simultaneously. The coefficient of determination (R²) of 0.900 implies that these three variables explain 90% of employee performance variation, while 10% is influenced by other factors outside the model. These findings reinforce the Job Demand-Resource and Role Enrichment theories, suggesting that job stress and role conflict can become positive driving forces when balanced with fair compensation and organizational support. Therefore, maintaining equilibrium between psychological and economic factors is essential to enhance employee productivity and loyalty.

Employee turnover in Jakarta’s star-rated hotels remains high in the post-pandemic period, ranging from 11–38% annually, which significantly affects service quality and industry competitiveness. This phenomenon is driven by a combination of job insecurity due to massive layoffs, job stress from excessive workload and long working hours, and a mismatch between young employees’ career expectations and traditional HR practices. Millennials and Gen-Z tend to prioritize self-development, meaningful work, and work–life balance, making them more mobile and open to new opportunities. This study aims to identify the dominant factors influencing turnover, explore the perceptions of HR managers and frontline staff regarding the policy–practice gap, and formulate relevant HR strategies for the post-pandemic context. A qualitative case study approach was employed, involving in-depth semi-structured interviews, non-participant observation, and documentation review, analyzed using Miles, Huberman & Saldaña’s interactive model. Data validity was ensured through triangulation, member checking, and peer debriefing. Findings reveal a significant gap between HR policies and their implementation, weakening retention strategies. The study proposes integrated strategies including consistent employer branding, adaptive and transparent compensation, needs-based digital training, fair work flexibility, and competency-based career mapping. The main contribution lies in formulating a combinatorial HR model that provides a practical retention roadmap while enriching the hospitality HRM literature in Indonesia.

Employee development is facilitated through multiple strategies, including formal training, mentoring programs, job rotation, and other structured learning initiatives. Retention strategies focus on providing competitive compensation packages, developing financial literacy skills, and fostering a collaborative organizational culture that values employee contributions. The implementation of TMS at PT. Surya Pratista Hutama has shown positive impacts, particularly in reducing employee turnover rates and improving leadership performance. However, the study also identifies several challenges, especially related to the need for clearer procedural guidelines and more specific development strategies to optimize outcomes. Overall, this research demonstrates that a well-structured TMS can serve as an effective mechanism for building sustainable human resource capabilities in highly competitive industries such as food manufacturing.

This research aims to identify factors that significantly influence employee performance and formulate strategies to improve it. This research was conducted through a comprehensive literature study of various studies related to employee performance. The main focus of this research is on internal factors such as motivation, leadership, and organizational culture, as well as external factors such as technology and changes in the business environment. The research results show that employee performance is influenced by various interrelated factors. Motivation, both intrinsic and extrinsic, is a key factor that encourages employees to achieve optimal performance. Effective leadership, especially transformational and democratic leadership styles, also has an important role in improving performance. In addition, a positive organizational culture, conducive work environment, and appropriate use of technology can increase employee productivity and job satisfaction. To improve employee performance, organizations need to create a supportive and motivating work environment. This can be done by implementing various strategies, such as providing ongoing training and development, implementing a fair and transparent compensation system, building positive interpersonal relationships, and providing sufficient autonomy to employees. Apart from that, organizations also need to pay attention to external factors such as technological changes and evolving market dynamics.

This study aims to analyze the influence of remuneration, work environment, and work-life balance on employee performance at PT Duta Utama Mustika. The background of this research lies in the importance of improving employee performance to achieve optimal company goals. Factors such as a fair remuneration system, a comfortable work environment, and maintaining a balance between work and personal life are believed to significantly impact employee productivity and performance. This research employed a quantitative approach with a sample of 80 employees selected using a specific sampling technique. Data were collected through questionnaires using a five-point Likert scale to measure variables including remuneration, work environment, work-life balance, and employee performance. Data analysis was conducted using multiple linear regression with the assistance of SPSS software. The results of the study indicate that remuneration has a significant effect on employee performance, meaning that providing appropriate and fair compensation can enhance motivation and work performance. Similarly, the work environment significantly influences performance, suggesting that a safe, comfortable, and supportive workplace contributes to employee productivity. In addition, work-life balance was also found to have a significant effect on performance, demonstrating that balancing job demands with personal life is essential for employees to remain focused and perform effectively. Based on these findings, the company is recommended to improve its remuneration system, create a more conducive work environment, and implement policies that promote work-life balance in order to enhance overall employee performance sustainably.

This study aims to analyze the reward system in improving the performance of educators at State Islamic Senior High Schools (Madrasah Aliyah) in Jambi Province. The research focuses on the reward mechanism, its implementation, and the factors that determine its effectiveness in improving educator performance. This study uses a descriptive qualitative approach with data collection techniques through observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation. The research locations include three madrasas: MAN 1 Tanjung Jabung Barat, MAN 1 Kota Jambi, and MAN 1 Merangin. The results show that the implemented reward system includes financial rewards (such as incentives and allowances) and non-financial rewards (such as certificates, training, and job promotions). Rewards have been shown to play an important role in improving educator motivation, discipline, loyalty, and performance. However, the implementation of the reward system has not been optimal due to several obstacles, such as budget constraints, lack of transparency in assessments, and the incompatibility of the types of rewards with the needs of educators. On the other hand, madrasas that implement the reward system appropriately and fairly show an increase in the quality of educator work, marked by increased participation, work performance, and professional responsibility. This study concludes that an effective reward system is one that has clear criteria, is transparent, and responsive to the needs of educators. Recommendations are directed to madrasah principals and the Ministry of Religious Affairs to build a strong culture of appreciation and allocate an adequate reward budget to improve the quality of education in madrasahs.

This study aims to analyze the effect of workload and compensation on turnover intention, with job satisfaction serving as a mediating variable. The research was conducted at PT Aerofood ACS Denpasar, a company engaged in catering services, involving a total of 150 employees. The sample size was determined using a non-probability sampling technique with a quota sampling approach to ensure representativeness of the respondents. Data collection was carried out through a structured questionnaire distributed via Google Forms, consisting of 25 measurement items based on a 5-point Likert scale ranging from strongly disagree to strongly agree. This quantitative research design employed both descriptive analysis and inferential statistical testing through Structural Equation Modeling–Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS) using SmartPLS 4.0 software. The results of the analysis indicate that workload has a negative and significant influence on job satisfaction, suggesting that higher workload levels tend to reduce employees’ satisfaction with their jobs. On the other hand, compensation demonstrates a positive and significant influence on job satisfaction, indicating that adequate and fair compensation can enhance employees’ feelings of fulfillment and fairness within the organization. Furthermore, job satisfaction is found to have a negative and significant effect on turnover intention, meaning that employees who are more satisfied with their jobs are less likely to develop intentions to leave the company. The mediating test reveals that job satisfaction plays a crucial role in bridging the relationship between workload and turnover intention, as well as between compensation and turnover intention. Specifically, job satisfaction partially mediates the negative impact of workload on turnover intention and the positive impact of compensation on turnover intention. Overall, this research highlights the importance of managing workload effectively and providing fair compensation as strategic efforts to enhance job satisfaction and reduce employees’ tendency to leave the organization.

Performance improvement can be measured through fair workload and appropriate compensation, but the problem that occurs at SMK Negeri 1 Bukateja is the opposite. There are several teachers who receive excessive workload and inappropriate compensation, resulting in a decline in teacher performance.

This study is a quantitative study with data analysis techniques using Part Least Square (PLS-SEM) using SmartPLS 3.0 software. Sampling used a purposive sampling technique, namely 91 teachers, with a data collection method using a questionnaire. The results of the analysis of the research hypothesis show that workload has a positive and significant effect on the performance of SMK Negeri 1 Bukateja teachers, compensation has a positive and significant effect on workload of SMK Negeri 1 Bukateja, workload has a positive and significant effect on the performance of SMK Negeri 1 Bukateja teachers, and compensation can mediate workload on the performance of SMK Negeri 1 Bukateja teachers. The findings of this study indicate that fair and adequate compensation can reduce excessive workload on teacher performance at SMK Negeri 1 Bukateja. The R-Square result is 60.1%, which is in the moderate category, with the remaining 39.9% explained by other variables outside the study.

Compensation and the work environment are two essential factors that significantly affect employee productivity, particularly in community-owned enterprises (BUMDes) engaged in the tourism sector. A fair remuneration system motivates employees to work optimally, while a supportive physical and psychosocial work environment creates comfort that enhances job performance. This study aims to examine the influence of compensation and work environment on employee productivity in BUMDes Kedungudi, which serves as one of the local driving forces in developing tourism-based community economic empowerment. This research employed a quantitative approach using a survey method with a total sample of 37 tourism sector employees of BUMDes Kedungudi. Data were collected through structured questionnaires, which were subsequently analyzed using SPSS version 28. The analytical procedures included validity and reliability testing, classical assumption testing such as normality, multicollinearity, and heteroscedasticity checks, as well as multiple linear regression analysis to determine the effect of independent variables on employee productivity. The results revealed that both compensation and work environment had a positive and significant influence on productivity. Specifically, compensation demonstrated a coefficient value of β = 0.205 with a significance level of p = 0.007, while the work environment showed a stronger effect with β = 0.281 and p = 0.002. Furthermore, the regression model indicated that the combination of these two variables was able to explain 68.0% of the variance in employee productivity (Adjusted R² = 0.680; p < 0.001). This finding highlights the strategic importance of remuneration policies and workplace conditions in enhancing organizational performance within community-owned enterprises.

The advancement of an organization is strongly influenced by the strategic role of its workforce, which acts as a driving force behind institutional transformation. This research explores how perceptions of fairness in organizational practices and the internal cultural environment contribute to enhancing employee loyalty, with work-related satisfaction positioned as a bridging element in this dynamic. The investigation involved a complete enumeration of the 50 staff members employed at PT Grab Teknologi Bali, utilizing comprehensive survey methods including structured questionnaires, guided interviews, and document review. Analytical interpretation was conducted through the application of path modeling techniques. The empirical results reveal that equitable treatment within the organizational setting significantly fosters greater job satisfaction among employees. In parallel, the organizational ethos reflected in shared norms and values also plays a critical role in elevating employee contentment. Furthermore, both fairness in management practices and cultural alignment within the workplace have a direct and meaningful influence on the level of commitment displayed by employees. Job satisfaction, in turn, emerges as a key predictor of organizational allegiance. Finally, the analysis substantiates that job satisfaction effectively serves as a mediating pathway linking organizational fairness and culture to heightened employee commitment. These findings underscore the importance of fostering an environment where fairness and a strong organizational culture are prioritized, as they directly impact employee satisfaction and loyalty. Organizations that implement transparent and fair management practices, while also nurturing a cohesive cultural environment, create a foundation for long-term employee commitment. Additionally, the study emphasizes the need for organizations to continuously assess and improve their internal practices, not only to maintain fairness but also to align their cultural values with the expectations of their workforce. By doing so, companies can enhance job satisfaction, which ultimately drives higher levels of employee commitment and overall organizational success.

The compensation system is an important element in human resource management, because it plays a direct role in influencing employee motivation, performance, and job satisfaction. In human resource management, the existence of human resources plays a vital role that must be considered by the company, including in terms of compensation. The ideal compensation system is one based on the principles of fairness and appropriateness, which can be directly felt by employees. The assessment of fairness and appropriateness can be seen from several dimensions, namely the internal dimension relating to the suitability of workload and rewards received, the external dimension considering company policies and market standards, and the individual dimension relating to the ability of compensation to meet employee living needs. Based on this, this study focuses on the compensation system implemented at the Double-Tree By Hilton Bintaro Jaya Hotel, specifically for banquet kitchen staff consisting of contract staff and daily workers. This study uses a descriptive qualitative approach with data collection through interviews, observations, and documentation. The results show that the compensation system for contract staff has been running optimally. From the internal side, the workload is considered commensurate with the rewards received. Externally, the compensation provided is competitive compared to competing companies. Furthermore, from an individual perspective, employees' living needs are met, even supported by a substantial service charge that exceeds their base salary. However, for daily workers, the compensation system is deemed suboptimal. Although their workload is equivalent to that of contract staff, their compensation is not the same, and they do not receive a service charge. Based on these findings, this study recommends optimizing the compensation system, particularly for daily workers, to ensure fairness and equity across all staff levels, thereby increasing work motivation, loyalty, and overall performance.

The development of information technology has driven significant transformations in human resource (HR) management, including in the aspects of compensation and job description adjustments. Digitalization in HR management not only simplifies administrative processes but also has the potential to increase employee satisfaction and loyalty through transparency, speed, and ease of access to information. This study aims to analyze the effect of digital compensation and job description adaptation on employee loyalty at AK-Tekstil Solo, a labor-intensive company in the textile industry. The research method uses a quantitative approach with a survey design. Data were collected through questionnaires distributed to a number of employees as respondents, then analyzed using multiple regression analysis techniques to test the effect of independent variables on the dependent variable. Digital compensation in this study was measured by aspects of transparency, payment speed, and ease of access, while job description adaptation was assessed by role clarity, task flexibility, and communication between management and employees. The results show that digital compensation designed with a transparent, accurate, and easily accessible system contributes positively to job satisfaction, which in turn increases employee loyalty to the company. Similarly, job description adaptation carried out in a structured manner and accompanied by clear communication has been proven to strengthen employee commitment and attachment to the organization. These findings provide strategic implications for company management, particularly in labor-intensive industries, to develop digital-based compensation systems that are not only efficient but also foster trust and fairness. Furthermore, management needs to ensure job descriptions are adaptive to changes in the work environment so that employees continue to feel valued and relevant to the company's goals. Implementing this strategy is expected to create a stable, productive, and sustainable work environment.  

Employee performance is a critical determinant of service quality and operational success in hospitals. High-performing employees contribute directly to patient satisfaction, service efficiency, and overall institutional reputation. This study investigates the influence of intrinsic and extrinsic motivation on the performance of employees at Petrokimia Gresik Hospital, aiming to provide empirical evidence to guide strategic human resource management in healthcare settings. A quantitative research design was employed, with data collected using structured questionnaires. The respondents consisted of 85 permanent employees selected through simple random sampling, ensuring that the sample fairly represented the hospital's workforce. The questionnaire was designed to measure aspects of both intrinsic motivation (such as self-fulfillment, recognition, and meaningful work) and extrinsic motivation (such as salary, benefits, and job security), along with indicators of employee performance. Data were analyzed using multiple linear regression analysis to examine the individual and joint effects of the motivational variables on performance. The results revealed that both intrinsic motivation (β = 0.532, p < 0.05) and extrinsic motivation (β = 0.487, p < 0.05) had a statistically significant and positive impact on employee performance. The model showed that the combination of these two factors accounted for 68.2% of the variation in employee performance (R² = 0.682), indicating a strong explanatory power. These findings underscore the importance of a balanced motivational strategy in hospital management. Relying solely on financial incentives is insufficient; efforts must also be made to cultivate a positive and fulfilling work environment. Therefore, hospital administrators are encouraged to design integrated motivation programs that address both intrinsic and extrinsic factors to enhance employee engagement, productivity, and ultimately, the quality of healthcare services provided.

This study aims to examine the legal protection of workers' rights who are terminated due to economic recession and to analyze the use of economic recession as a valid reason for termination of employment. This is a normative legal research that uses a statutory approach and a conceptual approach. The research relies on primary legal materials such as the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia, the Civil Code, Law Number 13 of 2003 concerning Manpower, and Law Number 11 of 2020 concerning Job Creation, as well as secondary legal materials including books, journals, and scholarly articles. The results of the research show that: 1) an economic recession can be considered a valid reason for termination of employment within a company, as it may fall under the category of force majeure, provided that the company still respects the employment agreement and principles of fairness; and 2) legal protection for workers who are laid off due to an economic recession is divided into two forms: internal legal protection (based on the contents of the employment agreement) and external legal protection (based on statutory provisions). In this regard, workers still have the right to receive severance pay, long service pay, and compensation for entitlements.

This study aims to determine the effect of compensation and benefits on employee job satisfaction. Fair, adequate, and transparent compensation is considered a crucial factor influencing employee morale, loyalty, and retention. The study identifies seven key indicators to measure the impact of compensation on job satisfaction: salary adequacy, compensation fairness, punctuality of payments, compensation system transparency, incentives and bonuses, overall compensation satisfaction, and employee retention. The analysis results show that compensation has a significant influence on job satisfaction. Additionally, compensation effectiveness is affected by economic conditions, compensation system structure, and the relevance of compensation to employee needs. The study concludes that well-designed compensation can be a strategic tool for improving performance and reducing employee turnover.
