Scheduling and resource allocation are two crucial aspects in various fields, including manufacturing, transportation, education, and information systems. The complexity of decision making is often increased by integer constraints, such as the number of workers, machines, or indivisible working hours. Therefore, the Integer Linear Programming (ILP) approach is one of the methods widely used in solving optimization problems involving discrete variables. This literature study aims to review previous studies that apply ILP in the context of scheduling and resource allocation optimization. This study reviews model approaches, solution techniques such as the branch and bound method and cutting plane, and their implementation in various real cases. The results of the study show that ILP is able to provide optimal or near-optimal solutions in scenarios with complex constraints and integer variables. This study also identifies challenges in implementing ILP models, such as the scale of the problem and high computational requirements, as well as opportunities for further research that includes hybridizing the ILP method with a heuristic approach. Thus, ILP remains a very relevant and effective tool in supporting optimization-based decision making in various sectors.

This research aims to examine the gap in legal protection for domestic workers in Indonesia through an analysis of Law No. 13 of 2003 on Manpower and ILO Convention No. 189 on Decent Work for Domestic Workers. Until now, domestic workers have not been explicitly recognized in national regulations, so their basic rights such as living wages, social security, and humane working hours are often neglected. This condition is exacerbated by the absence of written work contracts, the dominance of informal recruitment, and the view of the community that does not consider domestic workers as formal workers. This article concludes that the ratification of ILO Convention 189 and the passing of the Domestic Workers Protection Bill are strategic steps to strengthen legal protection for domestic workers in Indonesia, which also needs to be supported by labor inspection and comprehensive legal education.

This study aims to analyze the performance of employees at the Dukuh Pakis District Office in Surabaya City in carrying out daily administrative tasks as well as socialization activities with the community. The performance measurement method used refers to the four dimensions of employee performance proposed by Mangkunegara (2004), namely quality of work, discipline in work, initiative, and responsibility. Through observation and interviews, it was found that several obstacles hindered the performance of employees, such as lack of discipline in working hours, mismatch between job descriptions and tasks performed, and low supervision and enforcement of sanctions for violations.

Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) are the backbone of the economy, particularly in areas like Denpasar City, which serves as a central hub of economic activity in Bali. However, the COVID-19 pandemic posed significant challenges, severely impacting MSMEs’ net income. Declining purchasing power, mobility restrictions, and economic uncertainty forced business owners to struggle for survival. This highlights the need to understand the factors affecting MSMEs’ income in order to formulate strategic solutions. This study employs a quantitative associative approach to examine the influence between two or more variables. A sample of 100 MSMEs was selected using a proportional stratified random sampling technique based on the distribution of MSMEs across districts and business types. The results show that own capital, pricing, working hours, and access to the People's Business Credit (KUR) significantly affect MSME income in Denpasar City. Own capital is found to be the most dominant factor, followed by pricing and working hours. Access to KUR also plays an important role by providing easier access to additional capital, enabling business expansion and productivity improvement. Furthermore, the study confirms that competitive pricing and effective pricing strategies can enhance competitiveness and increase income. Longer working hours positively influence income by providing more opportunities to serve customers. Overall, access to KUR facilitates capital availability, ultimately supporting MSME growth and income in Denpasar City. Keywords: MSME Income, Denpasar City

Work fatigue and Musculoskeletal Disorders (MSDs) are common health issues among workers in the weaving industry. Fatigue often results from excessive workload, while MSD complaints typically include pain in the back, neck, wrists, elbows, and legs. This study used a cross-sectional design with a total sample of 45 active weavers in Numponi Village. The results showed significant associations between work fatigue and age (p=0.003), work duration (p=0.007), working posture (p=0.002), workload (p=0.014), and working hours (p=0.017), but not with temperature (p=0.561). Similarly, MSD complaints were significantly associated with age (p=0.001), work duration (p=0.003), working posture (p=0.025), workload (p=0.003), and working hours (p=0.002), with no significant link to temperature (p=0.826). It is recommended that weavers apply proper ergonomic principles to reduce the risk of fatigue and MSDs.

Road maintenance is a strategic effort to support community mobility and economic development. This study aims to determine the optimal duration and analyze the cost impacts of implementing the Time Cost Trade Off (TCTO) method. The method is applied through critical path analysis and adding overtime hours to reduce the project duration. Data is collected from project documents such as daily reports, S-curves, and cost budget plans, then analyzed using Microsoft Project software. The results show that the project duration can be shortened to 117 days with an additional cost of IDR 176,614,724.00, which is lower than the potential delay penalty of 1% per day. This adjustment leads to a time savings of 8.6% without causing significant changes to the project's organizational structure. The TCTO method proves to be a practical solution for addressing delays while maintaining a balance between time and cost.
