Effective communication is a key element in modern public administration, as it serves not only as a means of conveying information but also as a strategic instrument for strengthening inter-agency coordination, increasing public participation, and building public trust in the government. This study uses a qualitative approach with a literature review method, reviewing scientific journals, academic books, and official policy documents to analyze the role of communication in the bureaucracy, identify barriers that hinder its effectiveness, and propose relevant strengthening strategies in the digital era. The results of the study indicate that clear, consistent, and open communication acts as a catalyst in every stage of public policy from formulation, implementation, to evaluation, while simultaneously increasing the government's legitimacy in the eyes of the public. However, several obstacles remain, including the hierarchical organizational structure of the bureaucracy, a closed communication culture, limited communication competency among civil servants, and political intervention that often distorts policy messages. Furthermore, the development of digital technology provides significant opportunities through e-government, social media, and public service applications to expand the reach of communication, but at the same time presents challenges in the form of low digital literacy among civil servants and the public and the risk of spreading false information. To address these issues, recommended communication strengthening strategies include increasing the capacity of civil servants through communication skills training, developing information technology-based communication systems, establishing a more open and participatory organizational culture, and actively involving the public in every stage of public policy. Thus, this study confirms that effective communication is the main foundation of bureaucratic reform, because without inclusive, adaptive, and technology-based communication, public administration will not be able to meet the increasingly dynamic, complex, and critical demands of the public on the quality of government services.

Poverty in the Special Region of Yogyakarta (DIY) remains a significant issue despite a decline in poverty rates in recent years. This study aims to identify the factors influencing poverty in DIY from social, economic, and structural perspectives, as well as to evaluate policies that can address this issue. The method used in this research is a literature review through a Systematic Literature Review (SLR), examining various relevant sources on poverty in DIY and the poverty alleviation policies implemented in the region. The results of the study indicate that poverty in DIY is caused by several main factors, such as income inequality, low-quality education, low skill levels among the population, and limited access to business capital and productive resources. One policy that has proven effective in reducing poverty is the provision of access to capital and productive resources through microcredit schemes and agrarian reform. These programs not only provide capital but also enhance the ability of the poor to manage their businesses. These findings offer important insights into understanding poverty in DIY and suggest that policies supporting the empowerment of the poor through education, skills, and economic access can be an effective solution to reduce poverty in the long term..

This study aims to examine the effect of sales growth, profitability, capital structure, and corporate social responsibility (CSR) on firm value in companies listed in the LQ45 index during the 2022–2024 period. This research also intends to provide insights for investors in evaluating the factors that influence firm value as a basis for investment decision-making, including sales growth, profitability, capital structure, CSR, and firm value. The population of this study consists of 45 LQ45 companies, with a sample of 32 companies selected using purposive sampling based on specific criteria, resulting in 96 total observations. The research results show that sales growth and CSR do not affect firm value. Meanwhile, profitability and capital structure hurt firm value. This study concludes that sales growth has not yet become a strong fundamental signal for investors, as it does not always reflect sustainable performance. High profitability, in fact, has a negative effect on firm value, which may be due to a mismatch between short-term profits and the long-term prospects expected by investors. A high capital structure signals greater financial risk, thereby reducing investor confidence in the company. Meanwhile, CSR has not had a significant impact on firm value, possibly due to low disclosure quality or a lack of investor attention to sustainability issues.

Taxes serve as the primary source of state revenue and a crucial component in financing national development through the State Budget (APBN). This study examines the determinants of individual taxpayer compliance within the Klaten Primary Tax Office (KPP) in Central Java, with particular emphasis on the influence of awareness, comprehension of regulations, and understanding of tax sanctions. The research method uses a quantitative associative approach. Primary data were obtained by distributing questionnaires to 100 respondents using a nonprobability sampling technique, using the accidental sampling method. The data was analyzed using multiple linear regression with the help of SPSS software. The results show that awareness, understanding of regulations, and comprehension of tax sanctions have a statistically significant effect on individual taxpayer compliance, both partially and simultaneously. The adjusted R value illustrates the model's ability to explain the data at 64.7%. To improve taxpayer compliance, tax authorities are advised to routinely conduct sustainable and easily accessible tax education programs, enforce tax sanctions consistently and transparently, and be supported by awareness campaigns for taxpayers in fulfilling their responsibilities to the state.

This study aims to examine the influence of servant leadership (SL) on perceived organizational support (POS), job satisfaction (JS), job embeddedness (JE), and turnover intentions (TI) among private bank employees in West Jakarta. The research is motivated by the high turnover rate in the banking industry, despite organizational efforts to strengthen leadership and employee support. A total of 154 employees participated by completing an online Likert-scale questionnaire, and the data were analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling–Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS) with SmartPLS 4.1.0.9. The findings reveal that SL positively and significantly influences POS (β=0.667), JS (β=0.585), and JE (β=0.579). Furthermore, POS (β=−0.328), JE (β=−0.386), and JS (β=−0.220) significantly and negatively affect TI. Predictive relevance is supported with Q² values ranging from 0.283 to 0.604, while model fit testing using SRMR yielded 0.050 (saturated) and 0.127 (estimated). Bootstrapping was conducted with 5,000 resamples, two-tailed testing, bias-corrected accelerated (BCa), and 95% confidence intervals. Theoretically, this research strengthens the literature by demonstrating that SL enhances workplace relationships through improved POS, JS, and JE, which subsequently reduces turnover intentions. Practically, the findings provide implications for banking management to adopt servant leadership as a strategic approach to employee retention. Nevertheless, despite high levels of POS, JS, and JE, some respondents still report turnover intentions, indicating the presence of unmodeled external factors such as career opportunities, workload, or industry dynamics. This study is limited by its cross-sectional design and one-time self-report measurement; thus, generalizations and causal inferences should be made with caution.

The active discussion of the participants showed enthusiasm and readiness to adapt to technological transformation. This activity proves that collaboration between universities and churches is effective in strengthening the digital capacity of the younger generation, and can be a model of sustainable empowerment in the religious community.

This research was conducted at Public Fuel Filling Station (Stasiun Pengisian Bahan Bakar Umum/SPBU)54.861.02 PT Bolawolon with the objective of analyzing the accounting information system for cash sales of Fuel Oil (Bahan Bakar Minyak). This study employed a qualitative approach with a descriptive method. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation. The findings revealed that task overlapping still occurred, as operators also performed sales, cash handling, and delivery functions, while the manager also undertook warehouse and accounting functions. In addition, the documentation used was still limited to fuel purchase recommendation letters, purchase receipts, and bank deposit slips. The accounting records were also incomplete, covering, only sales journals and cash receipts, while calculations continued to be performed manually. Although most cash sales procedures had been implemented, the recording of the cost of goods sold had not yet been carried out.

This research aimed to determine the influence of human resource competence, accounting information systems, and internal control systems on financial performance at Obor Mas Credit Union. The research used a quantitative approach with a population of 110 permanent employees of Obor Mas Credit Union, while the sample was determined to be 52 respondents using the Slovin formula. Data were obtained through questionnaires distributed to respondents and processed using multiple linear regression analysis with the aid of statistical software. The research results indicated that human resource competence, accounting information systems, and internal control systems, both partially and simultaneously, did not have a significant impact on cooperative financial performance. This finding confirmed that improved financial performance was not solely determined by these three internal factors but rather requires more comprehensive strategic planning and managerial policies. This research was expected to contribute theoretically to the development of accounting science and serve as a practical consideration for credit union managers in improving the effectiveness of financial management.

Digital transformation and sustainability demands are driving the need for the integration of E-HRM and Green HRM to achieve sustainable organizational performance. This integration serves as a solution to the challenges of resource efficiency, carbon footprint reduction, and enhanced employee engagement in the digital era. This research aims to analyse the role of E-HRM in enhancing Green HRM practices and its impact on sustainable organizational performance. The research methodology employs a Systematic Literature Review (SLR), utilising the Scopus database, with selection based on inclusion-exclusion criteria, data extraction, and thematic analysis of selected journals. The anticipated impact of E-HRM is its support for Green HRM through the digitalization of HR processes that reduce resource usage, the establishment of digital platforms for environmental awareness, and data-driven impact measurement. The integration of both significantly enhances sustainable performance across three dimensions: environmental (a 20-30% reduction in carbon footprint), economic (15-25% cost savings), and social (30-40% increase in employee engagement). Key implementation factors include technological readiness, management commitment, and alignment with ESG strategies. This research contributes a conceptual framework for the integration of E-HRM and Green HRM, along with practical recommendations for achieving sustainable competitive advantage in the digital age.

The rapid environmental degradation currently compels governments and organizations to implement effective preventive measures. This study highlights the urgent need for the implementation of Green Human Resource Management (GHRM) practices and Personal Moral Norms in enhancing Employee Green Behavior within the banking sector. As governments adopt policies related to GHRM, Personal Moral Norms, and Employee Green Behavior, banks, as financial institutions, play a strategic role in promoting sustainability. The objective of this research is to analyze the effects of GHRM and Personal Moral Norms on Employee Green Behavior in the banking sector. A quantitative approach was employed, utilizing a descriptive and associative research design, involving 92 employees from the studied bank branch, with a sampling technique using a census method. Data analysis was conducted using validity and reliability tests, as well as multiple regression analysis with the aid of SPSS 24. The results indicate that GHRM and Personal Moral Norms significantly influence Employee Green Behavior, contributing to 97.8% of the variance in environmentally friendly behavior. These findings provide new insights into the importance of integrating Green values into human resource management and underscore the necessity for banks to adopt policies that support environmental sustainability. This research is expected to serve as a reference for banking institutions in formulating more effective strategies to enhance environmental awareness among employees.

Background: Colostrum is the first natural food for newborns, containing essential nutrients and antibodies that protect against infection. Health education for pregnant women in their third trimester is crucial to enhance their knowledge and practices regarding colostrum provision. Despite the global decline in neonatal mortality, the rate remains high, partly due to limited access and low quality of neonatal care. In Indonesia, particularly in Semarang, although exclusive breastfeeding coverage has improved, many mothers still lack understanding of colostrum’s importance and remain influenced by misconceptions. Preliminary studies revealed insufficient knowledge among pregnant women about colostrum. Method: This study applied a quasi-experimental method with a pretest-posttest design and a control group. The intervention group received health education, while the control group did not. Results: Before intervention, most respondents in both groups had poor knowledge. After the intervention, knowledge in the intervention group increased significantly, with 88.8% reaching a good category, while the control group showed no significant change. Furthermore, 94.4% of mothers in the intervention group gave colostrum, compared with only 33.3% in the control group. Conclusion: Health education is an effective strategy to increase maternal knowledge and encourage colostrum practice, dispelling myths and promoting better neonatal outcomes.

The long-term care required by schizophrenia patients places a heavy burden on caregivers who are responsible for meeting the patients' needs. Performing these caregiving tasks often causes physical and emotional stress on caregivers, especially due to the long-term nature of the care. In situations like this, coping strategies play a crucial role in supporting the well-being of caregivers so that they are able to face the challenges that arise during the process of caring for schizophrenic patients. This study focuses on examining the correlation between coping strategies and the quality of life of caregivers who provide care for schizophrenic patients at the Aceh Mental Hospital Polyclinic. The research design applied was analytical with a cross-sectional approach. A total of 115 caregivers were sampled through accidental sampling from a total population of 4,035 families. Research data were collected using two measuring instruments, namely the Brief COPE questionnaire and The Schizophrenia Caregiver Quality of Life Questionnaire (SCGQoL). The research process took place at the Aceh Mental Hospital Polyclinic from March 6 to 24, 2025. Data analysis used univariate and bivariate methods. Based on the research results, it was found that 108 caregivers (93.9%) were in the low coping strategy category, while 80 caregivers (69.6%) had a moderate quality of life. Statistical testing with Chi-Square produced a p-value of 0.001, which indicates a significant relationship between coping strategies and the quality of life of caregivers. Therefore, it is hoped that health care institutions can improve mental health nursing interventions for patients' families, particularly through educational programs on managing schizophrenia patients at home and assistance in identifying adaptive coping resources for patients' families.
