This study aims to improve subcontractor safety performance through strengthening governance systems, leading safety indicators, capability building, and performance monitoring at PT Putra Perkasa Abadi (PPA) Jobsite Borneo Indobara (BIB). The research was motivated by the increasing trend of subcontractor incidents during Quarter 1 to Quarter 3 of 2025, where seven incidents occurred and exceeded the company threshold. In addition, subcontractor performance evaluation scores remained below the target threshold of 70, while customer satisfaction scores in subcontractor management decreased from 8.45 to 7.58. The study applied a continuous improvement approach using Quality Control Circle (QCC), Pareto analysis, Nominal Group Technique (NGT), and root cause analysis with the Ishikawa method. Improvement initiatives were implemented through four strategic pillars: strengthening governance, reinforcing leading indicators, capability building, and integrated dashboard monitoring. The implementation results showed significant improvements in subcontractor safety management. The subcontractor incident frequency rate was reduced to zero incidents in Quarter 4 of 2025, subcontractor performance evaluation increased above the threshold to 70.81, and customer satisfaction scores improved to 8.55. The findings indicate that structured governance strengthening combined with real-time monitoring and subcontractor engagement can significantly improve mining safety performance and stakeholder trust.

The preservation of the nation's collective memory is a very important aspect in maintaining national identity, but its existence today is threatened by physical damage and limited access to information. This study aims to explain effective preservation methods to ensure the sustainability of the collective memory as a historical heritage. The methodology applied is qualitative descriptive by collecting data through literature review and document analysis from various literature sources and regulations related to archives. The results of this study show that the implementation of the current preservation strategy still faces major problems, especially the difference between the expected tennis standards and the reality of limited funds and the ability of human resources to carry out restoration. In addition, the digitalization process has not been fully linked to the planned long-term digital preservation management. The implications of this study show that strengthening the collaboration and technical capabilities of archivists is very important so that all historical artifacts of the nation are maintained in their authenticity, protected, and can be widely accessed by future generations.

This study aims to analyze the implementation of the Bravo PUPR Online attendance system in improving the work discipline of Civil Servants (ASN) at the National Road Implementation Center of East Nusa Tenggara. The research focuses on punctuality of attendance, consistency in fulfilling working hours, task completion, compliance with attendance procedures, alignment between recorded data and actual conditions, and acceptance of consequences for violations. The study employs a qualitative approach with data collection techniques including observation, documentation, and interviews with leaders, system operators, and ASN as direct users. The results indicate that the implementation of the Bravo PUPR Online attendance system has improved administrative order in attendance and increased ASN awareness of time discipline. However, work discipline has not been fully optimal, as several issues remain, such as inconsistent attendance, suboptimal fulfillment of working hours, and discrepancies between attendance data and actual field conditions. In addition, technical constraints such as internet connectivity and GPS accuracy, as well as behavioral factors like negligence and lack of supervision, also affect system effectiveness. In terms of compliance, the Bravo system integrated with e-HRM is considered effective in detecting violations and enforcing strict consequences, ranging from warnings to administrative sanctions. This demonstrates that the attendance system functions not only as a recording tool but also as an instrument for monitoring discipline.

This study aims to examine the role of the Merah Putih Village Cooperative (KDMP) in strengthening the village economy, using the lens of good governance and social capital. This study uses a qualitative method with a library research approach, referring to academic journals, books, and government policy documents as sources of information. The research shows that KDMP plays a significant role in improving the welfare of village communities by strengthening productive businesses, expanding access to capital, creating job opportunities, and developing local economic potential. The application of good governance principles such as transparency, accountability, and community participation is a crucial factor in the successful management of the cooperative. In addition, social capital such as mutual assistance, trust, and community collaboration also contribute to the sustainability of the village cooperative. However, the implementation of KDMP still has a number of challenges, including a shortage of human resources, limited cooperative management, and low digital literacy. Therefore, government support and capacity building of cooperative managers are crucial for KDMP to function as a tool for sustainable village economic development

The research affirms that an integrated and collaborative approach encompassing ecological, economic, and socio-cultural dimensions is a prerequisite for achieving sustainable development. Policy recommendations include regulatory reform, institutional strengthening, indigenous community empowerment, development of integrated monitoring systems, and mainstreaming sustainability principles throughout the national and regional development planning cycles.

This study seeks to examine the views of Islamic boarding school students regarding Islamic jurisprudence (fiqh) learning based on the Yellow Book as the primary reference at the Madrasah Diniyah Wustha An Nuur in Ponorogo. As a legacy of traditional Islamic scholarship, this book plays a vital role in the Islamic boarding school curriculum, although its relevance and effectiveness in modern education are often discussed among academics. Using a qualitative approach combined with descriptive-interpretive analysis, this study maps various aspects of students' perceptions, including teaching techniques, material content, obstacles encountered, and the relationship of the Yellow Book to understanding Islamic jurisprudence. The study revealed that students' responses were generally positive, but they were still hampered by limited Arabic language skills and difficulties translating the book's teachings into the context of contemporary life. Based on these findings, the implementation of more flexible learning methods such as bandongan, sorogan, and muhadlarah integrated with a contextual approach is needed to strengthen students' understanding and appreciation of traditional Islamic jurisprudence.

This study was motivated by the fact that students still experience difficulties in understanding Nahwu and Shorof despite studying both sciences in Islamic boarding schools. The purpose of this research was to examine the perspectives of Arabic language, Nahwu, and Shorof teachers regarding the importance of Nahwu and Shorof in Arabic language learning, their understanding of the concepts and applications, and the effectiveness of learning implementation at Madrasah Aliyah Al-Hidayah East Tanjung Jabung. This research employed a descriptive qualitative approach using interviews, observations, and documentation as data collection techniques. Data analysis was conducted through data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing, while data validity was ensured through source and technique triangulation. The findings revealed that teachers considered Nahwu and Shorof as the fundamental basis of Arabic language learning because these sciences regulate sentence structures, word transformations, and meanings in Arabic texts. Teachers believed that mastery of Nahwu and Shorof is essential for understanding the Qur’an, hadith, and classical Islamic books. The learning process was considered fairly effective since many students already had prior knowledge from pesantren education and showed progress during the learning process. However, the effectiveness of learning still faced several obstacles, including low student motivation, differences in students’ basic abilities, limited learning time, and the complexity of the material. This study concludes that improving the quality of Nahwu and Shorof learning requires more varied teaching methods, continuous motivation, regular material reinforcement, and stronger institutional support.

This Community Service (CS) initiative was executed collaboratively by faculty members from five universities—Universitas Pamulang, Universitas Presiden, Universitas Trisakti, Universitas Pembangunan Jaya, and Universitas Borobudur—in Kasomalang Kulon Tourism Village, Subang Regency, West Java, on April 17, 2026. This initiative aimed to instruct village leaders, as prospective catalysts for change in waste management and renewable energy, on the technique for converting plastic trash into pyrolysis-derived alternative fuel and the Triboelectric Nanogenerator (TENG) energy harvesting technology. This activity addresses the critical issues of plastic waste pollution and the exhaustion of fossil fuel reserves. Annually, almost 8 million tonnes of plastic waste infiltrate the oceans, yet merely 9% of all plastic ever manufactured is effectively recycled. The collaborative effort encompassed Electrical Engineering, Computer Systems, Petroleum Engineering, Information Systems, Product Design, and Agrotechnology. The instructional techniques employed comprised lectures and conversations. The activity's results indicated that participants acquired a thorough comprehension of pyrolysis mechanisms, the principles of TENG energy conversion, and its possible applications at the village level. Despite the absence of direct implementation, the cadres shown significant motivation to facilitate technology adoption inside their communities. This PKM model demonstrates that interdisciplinary collaboration across universities is effective in providing innovative technological education to rural populations.

The banking sector faces dual challenges from economic turbulence and the implementation of expected credit loss accounting standards. An empirical anomaly has emerged where large-scale banks remain aggressive in distributing dividends despite soaring provisioning burdens, while medium-scale banks tend to retain earnings. This research aims to analyze the effect of capital buffer and firm size on dividend distribution decisions, while examining the ability of allowance for impairment losses to moderate these interactions. Utilizing a causal explanatory panel data design, this study observed 15 banking entities on the Indonesia Stock Exchange from 2020 to 2024. Data analysis was conducted using the Tobit regression model to accommodate dividend data characteristics left-censored at zero. Results prove that the capital buffer has no significant effect on dividend decisions, confirming the conservative posture of banks in prioritizing capital retention as a risk cushion. Conversely, firm size significantly determines profit distribution policy positively. In the moderation test, allowance for impairment losses does not moderate the capital buffer-dividend relationship but significantly moderates and amplifies the positive effect of firm size on dividend decisions. These findings imply a strategic resilience signaling maneuver, where large banks respond to high provisioning by expanding cash distribution to prove fundamental robustness to the market. Practically, this study recommends investors prioritize large-scale banks for stable returns and provides insights for regulators regarding the urgency of more adaptive regulatory adjustments.

Market levies are a regional taxation category that holds significant promise for increasing regional fiscal resources, complementing local tax revenues. The objectives of this study are; (1) Understanding the Communication Mechanism in the Implementation of Market Service Fee Policy in Gorontalo City. (2) Examination of Resource Availability in the Implementation of Market Service Tax Policy in Gorontalo. (3) Understanding the Bureaucratic Framework in the Implementation of Market Service Tax Policy in Gorontalo City. (4) Examination of the Implementation of Market Service Tax Policy Disposition in Gorontalo City. The method used in this study is a descriptive qualitative method. The results of this study indicate that the communication of market service fee policy has been carried out through systematic formal channels and is supported by a clear bureaucratic structure and division of tasks, but its implementation is still not optimal. This is caused by several obstacles, including unequal understanding and distribution of information among traders, limited resources in terms of both quantity and quality of human resources, budget, and inadequate market facilities. Furthermore, weak coordination and suboptimal implementation of SOPs in the field also impact work consistency, while the disposition or attitude of implementers who have demonstrated commitment but are not yet unified requires a more comprehensive strategic approach. Therefore, integrated efforts are needed, including improving the communication framework, strengthening human resource capacity, improving facilities, stricter supervision, and ongoing coaching to create more effective and professional policy implementation.

Economic exploitation of children remains a serious issue within the child protection system in Indonesia, particularly in urban areas experiencing high socio-economic pressure. This study aims to analyze the forms of legal protection provided to children who become victims of economic exploitation by their parents in Manado City and to identify the factors that cause children to become involved in street-based economic activities. The research employed an empirical legal method with a socio-juridical approach. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews, documentation, library research, and case-handling records from the Office of Women’s Empowerment and Child Protection of Manado City. The data were analyzed using a qualitative descriptive method to understand the relationship between child protection legal norms and social practices within society. The findings reveal that legal protection has been implemented through preventive and repressive measures, including public outreach, legal education, psychological assistance, social rehabilitation, and inter-agency coordination. However, its implementation has not yet been optimal due to family poverty, low parental education, weak legal awareness, permissive social environments, and limited institutional capacity at the regional level. This study emphasizes that protecting children from economic exploitation requires stronger law enforcement, social protection for vulnerable families, community economic empowerment, and an integrated child protection system to ensure children’s rights to education, welfare, and development are sustainably protected.

Ntobo Specta is a community service program implemented by students of the Community Service Program (KKN) of the Bima College of Economics (STIE) as an effort to support the development of a creative economy based on local potential in Ntobo Village. Ntobo Village is known as one of the centers of traditional weaving craftsmen who are the main source of income for most of the community. However, promotion and marketing of woven products are still limited, so innovative activities are needed to increase the attractiveness and economic value of local weaving. Ntobo Specta activities are packaged in the form of a bazaar for weaving MSMEs and a fashion show made from typical Ntobo woven fabrics involving elementary, middle, and high school students. This activity aims to introduce Ntobo weaving to the wider community, increase the interest of the younger generation in local culture, and open marketing opportunities for weaving MSMEs. The implementation method is carried out through the stages of coordination, activity preparation, event implementation, and evaluation. The results of the activity show that Ntobo Specta is able to be an effective medium for promoting culture and the creative economy. The enthusiasm of the community and participants has a positive impact on increasing the existence of Ntobo weaving as a superior regional product. Furthermore, this activity also stimulates economic growth in the community by increasing awareness of local woven products and expanding the marketing network for MSMEs. Thus, Ntobo Specta is a form of community empowerment that integrates cultural preservation with strengthening the creative economy based on local wisdom.

The Legal Unit plays a crucial role in ensuring compliance with banking regulations, particularly in managing customer documents related to data protection and legal risk reduction. This study aims to explore the role and performance of the Legal Unit in managing customer files at Bank Sumsel Babel, Kapten A. Rivai Main Branch, and to identify obstacles and possible solutions. The method chosen in this study is qualitative with a descriptive approach. Data were obtained through observation, interviews, and document analysis, which were then analyzed using the interactive model of Miles and Huberman. The research findings indicate that the Legal Unit is responsible for ensuring that document management is carried out regularly, securely, and in accordance with applicable banking regulations. The implementation of Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs), internal supervision, and the use of digital archives contribute to legal compliance and minimize the risk of document loss and information leakage. Problems encountered include limitations in human resources and incompatibility with digital systems. Therefore, improvements in document management technology, training for human resources, and periodic SOP evaluation are needed to improve the effectiveness of the Legal Unit's work and maintain customer trust.

The development of digital technology has encouraged the transformation of the financial sector through the emergence of Sharia financial technology (fintech) as a financial service based on Islamic principles that emphasize justice, transparency, and public benefit (maslahah). The presence of various Sharia fintech products such as Sharia peer-to-peer (P2P) lending, Sharia crowdfunding, Sharia E-wallets, and digital ZISWAF (zakat, infaq, alms, and waqf) services is considered capable of increasing financial inclusion in Indonesia, especially for unbanked communities and MSMEs that have limited access to formal financial services. This study aims to analyze the innovation of Sharia fintech products, their role in increasing financial inclusion, and their conformity with the perspective of Islamic Economic Law. This research uses a qualitative method with a library research approach through collecting data from scientific journals, DSN-MUI fatwas, OJK and Bank Indonesia regulations, as well as various literature related to Sharia fintech published within the last five years. The data analysis technique was carried out descriptively and analytically by examining the concepts, implementation, and regulations of Sharia fintech in Indonesia. The results of the study indicate that Sharia fintech has a strategic role in expanding public access to financial services through the digitalization of financing, payments, and Islamic social fund collection. In addition to increasing Islamic financial inclusion and literacy, Sharia fintech also helps reduce transaction costs, facilitate MSME financing access, and expand the distribution of financial services to remote areas. From a Sharia perspective, the operation of Sharia fintech must continue to adhere to DSN-MUI fatwas and maqashid sharia principles in order to avoid elements of riba, gharar, and maisir and to create justice and public benefit for society. Therefore, Sharia fintech has a great opportunity to support the development of an inclusive and sustainable Islamic digital economy in Indonesia, although strengthening regulations, Sharia supervision, public education, and product innovation based on community needs are still required.
