This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of the reward program in improving employee loyalty and work discipline at Bank Mandiri. The research employs a qualitative descriptive approach using the literature study method, through the collection and analysis of secondary data obtained from official Bank Mandiri reports, academic journals, labor regulations, and media articles related to human resource management policies. The findings reveal that the implementation of both financial rewards (competitive salaries, performance-based bonuses, and welfare benefits) and non-financial rewards (recognition, promotions, and career development programs) has a positive impact on enhancing employee loyalty and work discipline. A fair, transparent, and sustainable reward system fosters a sense of belonging, strengthens affective commitment, and cultivates a productive and professional work culture. Moreover, the data indicate a decline in disciplinary violations over the past three years, demonstrating the effectiveness of the reward system as a form of positive reinforcement. This study highlights the importance of reward policies as a strategic instrument in human resource management and recommends that companies continuously adapt their reward systems to align with employee needs and the evolving work environment.

This research explores how transformational leadership, work environment, and workload affect the organizational commitment of the Kebumen Regency Education, Youth, and Sports Office. This census-based quantitative study used a sample of 120 respondents, and data were collected through questionnaires. Validity, reliability, and classical assumptions were tested before the analysis. Multiple linear regression analysis was conducted using SPSS 26 to test the relationships between variables. The findings reveal that transformational leadership does not have a significant effect on organizational commitment. On the other hand, an excellent work environment greatly enhances employee welfare and has a substantial positive impact on organizational commitment. Workload is also found to positively affect organizational commitment, as a proportional workload encourages higher levels of employee accountability. Together, these three independent variables explain 55.4% of the variance in organizational commitment, with other factors accounting for the remaining portion. The study concludes that improving the work environment and managing workload effectively are key factors in increasing organizational commitment.

This study aims to examine how commitment, academic, and well-being factors influence the attitudes of Primary School Teacher Education (PGSD) students toward the teaching profession. The teaching profession plays a significant role in improving the quality of education in Indonesia, yet it is often perceived as less promising due to low welfare and heavy workloads. This research employed a descriptive quantitative method involving 30 PGSD students as respondents. Data were collected through a Likert-scale questionnaire distributed online via Google Form. The results show that most students have a positive attitude toward the teaching profession, with 37% in the moderate category, 33% in the high category, and 27% in the low category. In terms of specific factors, student commitment to the teaching profession mostly falls into the moderate category (53%), academic factors tend to be high (40%), while perceptions of teacher welfare are generally moderate to low (77%). These findings indicate that PGSD students generally have good appreciation and academic readiness for the teaching profession; however, their commitment remains unstable due to low welfare perceptions and limited social recognition. Efforts to improve teacher welfare and strengthen professional values through the curriculum are needed to foster students’ commitment and pride in pursuing a career as teachers.

This research analyses the effectiveness of implementing the Indonesian Government Internal Audit Standards (SAIPI) at the Sidoarjo Regency Inspectorate in achieving good governance. SAIPI constitutes the guidelines established by the Association of Indonesian Government Internal Auditors (AAIPI) through Regulation Number PER-01/AAIPI/DPN/2021 as the minimum quality standard for the execution of government internal audits. The study employs a qualitative approach, utilising data collection techniques via in-depth interviews, observation, and document analysis. The research informants include the Regency Inspector, Assistant Inspectors, senior auditors, and officials from Regional Apparatus Work Units (SKPD) within the Sidoarjo Regency Government environment. The findings indicate that the implementation of SAIPI at the Sidoarjo Regency Inspectorate has been carried out reasonably well, but still encounters several constraints such as limited auditor competency in computer-assisted audit techniques (CAATs), a lack of structural independence, and suboptimal utilisation of information technology in the audit process. Factors supporting implementation include strong leadership commitment, the availability of clear regulations, and continuous auditor capacity-building programmes. The study concludes that the effectiveness of SAIPI implementation positively contributes to the enhancement of internal oversight quality, accountability in regional financial management, and corruption prevention within the Sidoarjo Regency Government.

Effective waste management is a crucial challenge in maintaining environmental cleanliness and sustainability, especially in rural areas. This study aims to analyze the development of waste banks as a sustainable waste management solution in Jl Sosro GG 1001 Village. The research method used is qualitative descriptive with data collection techniques through field observations, in-depth interviews with residents and waste bank managers, and documentation of activities. The results of the study show that the existence of waste banks is able to increase public awareness in sorting and managing household waste. In addition, the social and economic impacts caused are quite significant, such as the formation of work groups, increased additional income, and strengthening the value of mutual cooperation. However, there are a number of challenges that hinder program optimization, including limited operational facilities, lack of continuity of community participation, and lack of technical support from local governments. To overcome this, a capacity building strategy is needed through continuous training, provision of supporting facilities, and cross-sector collaboration. The waste bank in Jl Sosro GG 1001 Village has great potential to be used as a model of sustainable community-based waste management, if supported by a joint commitment between residents, the government, and other stakeholders.

This study aims to analyze the factors influencing the low participation of Catholic Youth in spiritual activities at St. Mikhael Kotabaru Parish. The research used a qualitative approach with a descriptive design to obtain an in-depth understanding of the phenomenon. Research subjects consisted of one Catholic Youth coordinator and six members selected purposively to represent diverse perspectives. Data collection techniques included unstructured interviews, participatory observation, and documentation. The data were then analyzed using the Miles and Huberman interactive model, which involves data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings reveal that the low participation of Catholic Youth is influenced by both internal and external factors. Internal factors include low motivation, shyness, lack of self-confidence, unstable physical conditions, and the excessive use of social media, which often distracts youth from engaging in church life. Meanwhile, external factors consist of economic limitations, heavy school and work commitments, insufficient mentoring from religious leaders, negative peer influence, and minimal family support. These challenges collectively contribute to the declining interest and active involvement of Catholic Youth in spiritual activities. This research highlights the urgency of creating innovative spiritual activity programs that are more attractive and relevant to the needs of young people in the current era. In addition, optimizing mentoring and guidance from parish leaders, parents, and peers is crucial to strengthen motivation and a sense of belonging among Catholic Youth. By addressing both internal and external factors simultaneously, the church community can foster a more participative and dynamic youth movement. Therefore, strategic collaboration among religious leaders, families, and the youth themselves is essential in revitalizing Catholic Youth participation in church life.

This study examines the interplay between administrative ethics and bureaucratic decision-making within the governance landscape of Pulang Pisau Regency through a structured literature analysis. Anchored in the theoretical frameworks of Administrative Ethics Theory, Bureaucratic Decision-Making Theory, and Good Governance, this research synthesizes classical and contemporary scholarly works to identify the determinants, challenges, and institutional dynamics that influence ethical decision processes in local bureaucracy. The method employs a qualitative narrative literature review, involving systematic identification, screening, quality assessment, and thematic extraction of relevant academic sources published in the last two decades. Findings indicate that ethical norms, integrity, organizational culture, leadership morality, and institutional control mechanisms significantly shape the rationality, consistency, and legitimacy of bureaucratic decisions. Furthermore, the literature reveals that external pressures, conflict of interest, inadequate regulatory enforcement, and limited administrative capacity remain persistent barriers to the implementation of ethical governance in regional administrations. The study also highlights the essential role of participatory governance, digitalization, and internal accountability frameworks in strengthening ethical consistency across bureaucratic processes. These insights position administrative ethics as a crucial foundation for promoting transparency, fairness, and public trust in local government institutions. The paper concludes that strengthening administrative ethics requires integrated institutional reforms, long-term commitment, and the internalization of ethical values at both organizational and individual levels. The implications of this research extend to policy formulation, bureaucratic capacity-building, and future empirical studies on ethical governance in decentralized contexts.

This Community Service Program (PKM) was designed to strengthen national character and identity through the application of Asta Cita values among the residents of Rejuno Village, Karangjati District, Ngawi Regency, East Java. Conducted over two days, the program involved active participation from youth groups, community leaders, and village officials. The activities consisted of the introduction of national and civic values, interactive discussions with local figures, and group reflections aimed at formulating social commitments rooted in the Asta Cita principles. The findings show a notable increase in participants’ understanding and appreciation of the eight core values: patriotism, mutual cooperation, honesty, responsibility, hard work, discipline, tolerance, and social justice. Moreover, local wisdom and traditions—such as martial arts practices and community deliberations—were revitalized as effective tools for embedding these values within daily life. This program highlights that national character building does not solely rely on formal education or governmental initiatives but can also grow organically from community-based cultural practices. By integrating local heritage with national ideals, the PKM successfully promoted a sense of unity, civic awareness, and moral responsibility among the people of Rejuno Village, illustrating how local culture can serve as a strong foundation for fostering national identity and integrity.

This study examines the strategic role of job satisfaction in shaping organizational commitment in the context of companies by synthesizing empirical evidence published between 2016 and 2025. Although it has been extensively researched, findings related to the consistency and determinants of the relationship between job satisfaction and organizational commitment are still scattered and have not been integrated, thus requiring comprehensive mapping. Therefore, this study aims to identify empirical patterns, conceptual issues, and theoretical foundations that explain how job satisfaction contributes to the formation of organizational commitment. Using the PRISMA based Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method, 35 articles were selected through the stages of identification, screening, quality assessment, and thematic synthesis. The review results show that job satisfaction is consistently a major predictor of organizational commitment in various corporate sectors. These findings are consistent with theories such as Social Exchange Theory, Equity Theory, Herzberg's Two Factor Theory, and Job Demands Resources Model, which explain the cognitive and affective mechanisms of commitment formation. In addition, variables such as work environment, job involvement, work life balance, internal CSR, and HR practices were identified as mediators or moderators that strengthen this relationship. This study concludes that increasing job satisfaction is an important strategy for strengthening commitment, reducing turnover intentions, and improving organizational performance. This review contributes to an integrative understanding of empirical developments and theoretical perspectives, and provides recommendations for future research to expand the data base and consider cross-cultural dynamics in organizations.

Transformational leadership is an important paradigm in strengthening modern governance that is oriented towards innovation, accountability, and public service. This research aims to examine the concepts, roles, and challenges of transformational leadership in the context of the Indonesian public sector through a literature study approach. The study was conducted on 15 open academic sources relevant to digital bureaucratic issues, apparatus work motivation, and organizational reform. The results of the study show that transformational leadership is able to increase performance effectiveness, strengthen employee commitment, and accelerate the digital transformation of the bureaucracy through an inspiring vision, intellectual stimulation, and individual attention to subordinates. In addition, this leadership contributes to the formation of a collaborative work culture and the improvement of public service innovations that are adaptive to the needs of the community. However, its implementation still faces structural obstacles, such as hierarchical culture, resistance to change, weak digital competence of the apparatus, and limited policy and human resource support. Therefore, a strong integration between transformational values, adaptive leadership competencies, and good governance principles is needed to drive sustainable and performance-oriented bureaucratic change that is superior to public performance.

The implementation was carried out through tutorials and direct mentoring in two sessions, covering account creation, developing professional headlines and summaries, adding skills and experiences, and uploading simple portfolios. The results indicated that all participants successfully created or improved their LinkedIn profiles, actively engaged in the activities, and demonstrated a greater awareness of the importance of a professional digital identity, which can be seen from the students’ participation, the quality of the profiles produced, and their commitment to continuously developing their LinkedIn accounts. The program highlights LinkedIn’s strategic role in strengthening digital literacy and career readiness among university students in the global era.

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.

A company's productivity is greatly influenced by the quality of employee performance, which makes employees an important asset in achieving organizational goals. This study aims to analyze the influence of job skills, work experience, and work commitment on employee performance on CV Medali Mas. The research method used is a quantitative approach with multiple linear regression analysis techniques. Data were collected through questionnaires that had been tested for validity and reliability, and classical assumption tests were carried out including normality, multicollinearity, heteroscedasticity, and linearity tests. The results of the analysis showed that simultaneously, the three independent variables, namely work skills, work experience, and work commitment, had a significant effect on employee performance (F count = 6.788; Sig. < 0.001). However, only work experience showed a significant effect on employee performance (t count = 2.765; Sig. = 0.009), while work skills (Sig. = 0.072) and work commitment (Sig. = 0.531) had no significant effect. These findings confirm that work experience is a dominant factor in improving employee performance at CV Medali Mas. The implications of this study suggest that companies pay more attention to the track record of work experience in the recruitment and human resource development process to increase productivity optimally.

This study aims to examine the influence of transformational leadership, work motivation, and organizational culture on organizational commitment at PT Kembang Jawa Permai. The research employs a quantitative approach with an associative causal design, using a survey method and data collected through a questionnaire distributed to all 46 employees as respondents. The sampling technique used is saturated sampling, considering the small population size. Data analysis was performed using multiple linear regression analysis with validity, reliability, and classical assumption tests (normality, multicollinearity, heteroscedasticity, and linearity) conducted beforehand to ensure model accuracy. The results indicate that transformational leadership, work motivation, and organizational culture each have a positive and significant effect on organizational commitment, both partially and simultaneously. Among the three variables, organizational culture shows the most dominant influence, indicating that strong organizational values and teamwork orientation play a key role in strengthening employee commitment. The coefficient of determination (R²) of 0.848 implies that 84.8% of the variation in organizational commitment can be explained by the three independent variables. This study contributes to human resource management theory and provides practical insights for organizations to enhance employee commitment through effective leadership, motivation, and cultural reinforcement.

This study aims to analyze the influence of emotional intelligence, work discipline, and job commitment on employee productivity at DP3AP2KB Kota Kediri. The research employed a quantitative approach with a population of 45 employees, all of whom were included as the sample using a saturated sampling technique. The research instrument was a five-point Likert-scale questionnaire tested for validity and reliability. Data were analyzed using multiple linear regression with the aid of SPSS version 25, preceded by validity, reliability, and classical assumption tests (normality, multicollinearity, and heteroscedasticity). The results indicate that emotional intelligence has a significant partial effect on employee productivity, while work discipline and job commitment show no significant effect. However, simultaneously, the three independent variables significantly affect productivity with an Adjusted R² value of 0.846. These findings highlight that emotional intelligence is the dominant factor influencing productivity, whereas work discipline and job commitment function more as basic requirements already embedded within bureaucratic systems. The practical implication of this study suggests the need for soft skill development programs, emotional management training, and the improvement of employees’ interpersonal skills to enhance productivity in the public sector.

This study investigates the impact of Employee Engagement and Work-Life Balance on Job Satisfaction among employees at the Depok City Land Office. The research employed purposive sampling to select participants, and data were collected directly through questionnaires distributed to the respondents. All research instruments underwent rigorous validity and reliability testing, confirming that the items were appropriate for further statistical analysis. Using multiple linear regression analysis, the study found that both Employee Engagement and Work-Life Balance significantly and positively influence Job Satisfaction, both individually and collectively. The results suggest that employees who are highly engaged in their work and who successfully manage a balance between professional responsibilities and personal life tend to experience higher levels of job satisfaction. The coefficient of determination (R²) of 0.567 indicates that 56.7% of the variability in Job Satisfaction can be explained by these two independent variables, while the remaining variation is attributable to other factors not covered in this study. These findings provide empirical support for the importance of fostering Employee Engagement and creating a supportive work environment that promotes Work-Life Balance as effective strategies for enhancing overall employee satisfaction. Practically, this research offers valuable insights for organizational management, particularly in designing reward systems, implementing career development programs, and establishing policies that help employees balance their work and personal lives. By focusing on these strategies, organizations can sustainably improve employee productivity, commitment, and loyalty.
