Nursing care documentation is crucial for service quality and patient safety, but incomplete and inconsistent documentation remains a challenge in hospitals. This study focuses on nurses at Medika Lestari Hospital, where documentation compliance is below expectations. The aim is to analyze how organizational commitment and supervision affect nursing care documentation, with work motivation as an intervening variable. A quantitative cross-sectional design with a structural model approach was used, and data were collected via structured questionnaires and analyzed using SEM-PLS. The results show that organizational commitment positively impacts documentation compliance (β = 0.268; p = 0.013), highlighting the importance of nurses’ attachment to organizational goals. Supervision, however, has no significant direct effect on documentation (β = 0.220; p = 0.109). Both organizational commitment (β = 0.285; p = 0.018) and supervision (β = 0.382; p = 0.000) significantly influence work motivation, indicating that managerial control and organizational attachment contribute to motivation. However, work motivation does not significantly affect documentation (β = 0.231; p = 0.053) and does not mediate the effects of commitment or supervision on compliance. In conclusion, improvements in documentation are primarily driven by organizational commitment rather than motivational or supervisory factors. Hospital management should focus on enhancing nurses’ organizational commitment and aligning supervisory practices with institutional values to improve documentation compliance sustainably.

This study examines the lived faith of Catholic migrants from East Nusa Tenggara (NTT) who have migrated to the Muslim-majority landscape of South Kalimantan, Indonesia. These migrants face a profound crisis of identity as they transition from a dominant religious environment to a marginalized minority status, necessitating a research objective that explores how their faith is reinterpreted amidst such socio-religious pressures. Employing a qualitative phenomenological-hermeneutical method, the research utilizes Paul Ricoeur’s threefold mimesis - prefiguration, configuration, and refiguration - as its primary interpretive framework. The findings reveal a significant narrative shift from an inherited “communal Catholic habitus” to a “refigured faith” characterized by personal agency and reflective commitment. This transformation is sustained through adaptive relational ethics, such as the sanctification of work and collaborative hospitality, which allow migrants to navigate their vulnerability. The study synthesizes these experiences to conclude that internal migration constitutes a vital locus theologicus, wherein the rupture of traditional religious structures does not erode faith but rather matures it into a more resilient, intentional, and relational existential orientation. Consequently, migration emerges as a transformative theological process that redefines the intersection of faith, culture, and minority existence in pluralistic societies.

Background: In the competitive healthcare landscape, where human resources are pivotal to organizational success, affective commitment defined as emotional attachment to the workplace is essential for nurse retention and service quality. Satya Negara Hospital in North Jakarta exemplifies the challenges faced by Indonesian healthcare institutions, with a notably high nurse turnover intention of 30% in 2024, signaling low affective commitment and underscoring the urgency to identify its drivers. While person-job fit and career development are established antecedents of commitment, their combined influence within Indonesia’s nursing context, along with the potential moderating role of meritocracy, remains underexplored.. Methods:  Using a quantitative, cross sectional design, data were collected via a validated questionnaire from all 108 nurses at the hospital and analyzed using multiple regression.. Results: The results revealed that person-job fit, career development, and meritocracy collectively explain 96.6% of the variance in affective commitment. Furthermore, when meritocracy was tested as a moderating variable, the explanatory power of the model increased significantly, with the adjusted R² value rising from 96.6% to 98.5%. This indicates that the presence of a meritocratic system substantially amplifies the positive effects of both person-job fit and career development on commitment.. Conclusion: The study concludes that a synergistic combination of job fit, growth opportunities, and a merit-based system is fundamental to fostering nurses’ emotional attachment. These findings contribute to organizational and psychological theory integration and offer practical human resource strategies for enhancing nurse commitment and reducing turnover in healthcare settings.

This study aims to analyze the influence of leadership style and work motivation on employee performance with organizational commitment as an intervening variable at the Regional Financial and Asset Management Agency of West Sumatra Province. This study uses a quantitative approach with an explanatory design. Data were collected through distributing questionnaires to 45 employees using a census technique. Data analysis was conducted using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) with the Partial Least Square (PLS) approach. The results show that leadership style and work motivation have a positive and significant effect on organizational commitment. In addition, leadership style and work motivation also have a positive and significant effect on employee performance. However, organizational commitment does not have a significant effect on employee performance and is unable to mediate the influence of leadership style and work motivation on employee performance. These findings indicate that improving employee performance in public sector organizations is more effective through directly strengthening leadership style and work motivation. This study is expected to provide theoretical contributions in the development of public sector human resource management studies and become practical considerations for organizational leaders in formulating human resource management policies oriented towards improving apparatus performance.

The PDP Law has provided a good legal framework, but the success of its implementation is highly dependent on the commitment of all parties to work together in protecting personal data.

Organizational commitment is essential for maintaining hospital performance, service quality, and healthcare continuity. Preliminary data from Brebes Regional General Hospital shows that 35% of medical doctors face issues with low organizational commitment, which may negatively impact the institution's effectiveness. This study examines how meritocracy strengthens the effects of transformational leadership and work motivation on medical personnel's organizational commitment. A quantitative approach with causal research design was used to analyze the relationships among these variables. The sample included 72 doctors, selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected via structured questionnaires and analyzed using Moderated Regression Analysis (MRA) to assess both direct and moderating effects. The findings show that transformational leadership, work motivation, and meritocracy together significantly influence organizational commitment. Transformational leadership and work motivation each have a positive impact on organizational commitment. Additionally, meritocracy serves as a moderating factor, enhancing the connection between leadership and commitment, as well as work motivation and commitment. These results suggest that meritocratic systems based on competence, performance, and achievement improve leadership effectiveness and motivation, fostering greater commitment among medical staff. The study suggests that hospital management should implement meritocratic principles consistently in leadership and human resource practices, alongside developing transformational leadership and motivation strategies, to maintain high levels of organizational commitment among medical personnel.

The development of automotive technology continuously seeks solutions to improve human mobility and address environmental concerns. This study focuses on the Hydrogen Reactor (HHO) technology as an alternative solution for fuel efficiency and emission reduction, specifically examining the legal protection of consumers utilizing this technology at Bengkel Karya Gemilang. The research aims to analyze the legal framework of consumer protection in the context of new energy-saving technologies and to identify the legal responsibilities of business actors (workshops) and the rights of consumers. Employing a normative legal research method with a case study approach, the study analyzes the implementation of Law No. 8 of 1999 concerning Consumer Protection (UUPK) in the utilization of HHO reactors. The findings indicate that while the HHO reactor technology offers a potential 5-15% increase in fuel efficiency and CO emission reduction, its implementation introduces new legal challenges, particularly regarding product safety, standardization, and the obligation for periodic servicing. Consumer protection is primarily ensured through the workshop’s obligation to provide clear product explanations, guarantee product safety, and fulfill the periodic service commitment. The study concludes that the existing UUPK provides a sufficient legal basis, but its implementation requires clear and transparent agreements, especially concerning the technical specifications and long-term maintenance of the HHO reactor, to ensure consumer rights are fully protected against potential risks associated with new, non-standardized automotive technologies.

This study was carried out at RS Hj. Fatimah Sulhan in Kabupaten Demak, Jawa Tengah, which functioned as both the research site and the moderating context of the investigation. The research aims to examine how personal compensation, Organizational Citizenship Behavior (OCB), and organizational commitment influence employee work performance within the hospital environment. A quantitative research design was implemented, involving 150 employees selected as respondents through appropriate sampling procedures. Data were collected using structured questionnaires and subsequently analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) with the AMOS software to test the hypothesized relationships among variables. The findings reveal that personal compensation, OCB, and organizational commitment each exert a positive and statistically significant impact on employee performance. These results indicate that fair and competitive compensation, strong voluntary work behaviors, and a high level of commitment to organizational goals collectively enhance productivity, service effectiveness, teamwork quality, and overall institutional performance in the healthcare setting.

Employee affective commitment is a critical factor for workforce retention and service quality in healthcare organizations, particularly among nurses who represent the largest professional group in hospitals. Kemayoran X Hospital has experienced persistently high nurse turnover rates, indicating potential deficiencies in affective commitment. This study aimed to examine the influence of perceived organizational support and organizational justice on nurses’ affective commitment, with work engagement serving as an intervening variable. A quantitative cross-sectional design was employed, involving 125 staff nurses at Kemayoran X Hospital selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected using structured self-administered questionnaires distributed via Google Forms and analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling–Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS). The results demonstrated that perceived organizational support, organizational justice, and work engagement simultaneously exerted a significant effect on affective commitment. Furthermore, perceived organizational support and organizational justice showed significant positive effects on work engagement, which in turn significantly influenced affective commitment. Mediation analysis confirmed that work engagement partially mediated the relationships between perceived organizational support and affective commitment, as well as between organizational justice and affective commitment. These findings indicate that nurses who perceive fair treatment and strong organizational support are more likely to be engaged in their work and emotionally committed to their organization. In conclusion, strengthening organizational support systems, ensuring fairness in decision-making processes, and fostering work engagement are essential managerial strategies to enhance nurses’ affective commitment and reduce turnover in hospital settings.

This study examines the role of the private sector in collaborative politics to strengthen human security in preventing human trafficking in Kupang City, East Nusa Tenggara Province. Human trafficking is an extraordinary crime that poses serious threats to human security, particularly for Indonesian Migrant Worker Candidates (CPMI) who are highly vulnerable to exploitation and illegal recruitment. The complexity of this issue requires the involvement of multiple actors, including not only the government but also the private sector. This research employs a qualitative descriptive method, with data collected through interviews, observation, and documentation. The research sites include BP3MI East Nusa Tenggara as a government representative and two private companies, PT Bakti Unggul Sejahtera (PT BUS) and PT AKKA AL-MATAR. The analysis is based on the collaborative governance framework proposed by Ansell and Gash, which emphasizes face-to-face dialogue, trust building, commitment to the process, shared understanding, and intermediate outcomes. The findings indicate that collaboration between the government and the private sector plays a significant role in preventing human trafficking through legal recruitment processes, pre-departure training, capacity building, and supervision of labor placement procedures. Although challenges remain in coordination and policy consistency, these collaborative practices contribute positively to strengthening the protection of migrant workers’ rights and security. This study concludes that collaborative politics between the government and the private sector is a crucial strategy in developing a human security–oriented human trafficking prevention system

The Mapan Satria Program represents the Kediri City Government's commitment, through the Department of Transportation, to enhance public service quality in the bus transportation sector under the name Bus Satria; however, operational obstacles such as schedule unreliability and insufficient public information persist. This study aims to describe the effectiveness of the Mapan Satria Program managed by the Kediri City Department of Transportation commencing in 2023. Program effectiveness was analyzed based on Annas's (2017) seven indicators using a qualitative method with data collection through observation, interviews, and documentation. The analysis indicates that the Mapan Satria Program (Moda Angkutan Pelayanan Aman dan Nyaman Sarana Transportasi Kediri Bahagia) has not yet operated effectively. While aspects such as timeliness, work mechanisms, inter-agency cooperation, fund disbursement, and monitoring and evaluation have been implemented in accordance with regulations, others remain suboptimal, including limited human resources, service deviations, inadequate information updates, and low public utilization. Therefore, the author recommends optimizing the program by expanding socialization to the wider community, providing clear schedule information at bus stops to facilitate passengers, strengthening the operational monitoring and evaluation system, and imposing strict sanctions for deviations.

Improving the quality of Islamic boarding school education is essential to meet the demands of modern times and global competition. These institutions are expected not only to produce academically capable students but also those with strong character, noble morals, and spirituality.

The study concludes that fostering strong organizational commitment is crucial for improving pesantren education, urging managers to prioritize human resource development through effective management, visionary leadership, and a conducive organizational culture.

The quality of educational human resources (HR) is a key factor in determining the quality and success of educational implementation in schools. However, many schools still face problems of low performance, motivation, and professionalism among teachers and educational staff due to leadership that is not responsive to the diversity of conditions and human resource needs. This study aims to examine situational leadership as a strategy employed by school principals to improve the quality of educational human resources. The study adopts a literature review approach with qualitative content analysis of books, scholarly journal articles, and relevant previous research. The findings indicate that situational leadership enables school principals to adjust leadership styles directing, coaching, supporting, and delegating according to the levels of readiness, competence, and motivation of teachers and educational staff. Adaptive and participative leadership contributes positively to improved performance, work commitment, professionalism, and the creation of a conducive organizational climate and school culture. Therefore, situational leadership can be used as a strategic approach in planning, implementing, and evaluating sustainable educational quality improvement programs.

This research aims to analyze the implementation of the "Jalak Wadul Mas" (Jawa Timur Layanan Pengaduan Warga dan Dukungan Masyarakat/East Java Citizen Complaint Service and Community Support) innovation program in improving the welfare of people with social welfare problems (PMKS) in East Java Province.

Challenges remain in human resource capacity, internet connectivity in remote areas, and cross-sectoral coordination. This study recommends strengthening digital literacy training for beneficiaries, expanding mobile service units, developing real-time monitoring dashboards, and establishing sustainable funding mechanisms.

This research aims to analyze the implementation of the Protection and Rehabilitation Service Program for Juvenile Delinquents in Surabaya City, conducted by the Social Service of East Java Province. Juvenile delinquency remains a significant social problem requiring comprehensive intervention through protection and rehabilitation approaches rather than punitive measures. Drawing on George C. Edward III's policy implementation theory, this study examines four critical factors: communication, resources, disposition, and bureaucratic structure. This qualitative research employs a descriptive approach, with data collected through in-depth interviews, observation, and documentation at the Social Service of East Java Province during June-August 2025. Informants include program managers, social workers, psychologists, beneficiaries of the juvenile delinquency program, and their families. The results indicate that the program has successfully served 1,247 juvenile delinquents through integrated services, including psychological counseling, skills training, family therapy, and social reintegration support. The communication dimension shows effective coordination between provincial and city-level agencies, though information dissemination to communities needs improvement. Resource adequacy is generally sufficient with 35 certified social workers, adequate facilities, and an annual budget of Rp 3.2 billion. The disposition of implementers demonstrates a strong commitment to child-centered approaches. Clear SOPs and inter-agency collaboration protocols support the bureaucratic structure. The program achieves 72% successful rehabilitation rate with 68% of beneficiaries returning to formal education or productive activities. Challenges remain in stigma reduction, family involvement, and post-rehabilitation monitoring. This study recommends strengthening community-based prevention, expanding vocational training options, developing peer support networks, and establishing sustainable aftercare mechanisms.

This study examines the legal protection of Indonesian Migrant Workers (PMI) following the revocation of the moratorium on deployment to Saudi Arabia. Using a normative juridical approach with a descriptive-analytical specification, the research explores the effectiveness of Law Number 18 of 2017 concerning the Protection of Indonesian Migrant Workers, the impact of the moratorium revocation on the rights and security of PMI, and the implementation of bilateral cooperation through the Indonesia–Saudi Arabia Memorandum of Understanding (MoU). The findings reveal that although the existing legal framework is comprehensive, its implementation remains weak, particularly regarding supervision and law enforcement in destination countries. The study identifies a gap between administrative regulations and substantive protection, as reflected in the persistent cases of violence, delayed wages, and exploitation in the domestic sector. Strengthening the effectiveness of PMI protection requires synergy between legal reform, digital-based monitoring systems, and human rights–based diplomacy. Therefore, Indonesia must reinforce its political commitment, institutional coordination, and bilateral mechanisms to ensure the fulfillment of migrant workers’ fundamental rights and dignity abroad.
