The recent labor regulation reform through the Job Creation Law (Undang-Undang Cipta Kerja) has introduced new dynamics in regulating Fixed-Term Employment Agreements (PKWT), impacting social justice in Indonesia. This study aims to analyze the effects of PKWT regulation within the Job Creation Law on the principle of social justice, particularly in the context of Indonesia’s Asta Cita 4, which emphasizes protection for the entire nation. Employing a qualitative approach through literature review, the study systematically examines relevant laws, academic works, and related research. The findings indicate that although the law enhances labor market flexibility, the resulting legal uncertainty for fixed-term workers risks social inequality that contradicts the ideals of social justice. This research underscores the need for legislative reforms that prioritize worker protection and social security to align labor regulations with national aspirations embodied in Asta Cita 4. The implications provide recommendations for policymakers and future researchers to develop more empirical and in-depth studies to strengthen labor protections going forward.

Traditional Bakera treatment or a kind of traditional spa is a treatment carried out by postpartum mothers, all traditional Bakera treatment methods use herbal plants. The purpose of this study was to determine how to utilize bakera in postpartum mothers in the Taratara Health Center work area. The type of research used was descriptive qualitative research, with informants consisting of 2 postpartum mothers, 1 village head, and 1 health worker domiciled in Taratara village. The results of the study through in-depth interviews with researchers with 4 informants showed that traditional Bakera treatment has benefits for the healing process of postpartum mothers such as helping to smooth blood circulation, removing toxins that are not needed by the body, accelerating the healing of external wounds after giving birth, helping to warm the body, accelerating the healing of internal wounds, helping to remove dirty blood after giving birth, facilitating breast milk production, increasing appetite, and facilitating the digestive tract.

This study discusses the limitations faced by young people in facing the dilemma of standardization of labor recruitment, with a case study on the implementation of the Job Fair held by the Manpower Office (Disnaker) in Bekasi. In an era of an increasingly competitive labor market, the recruitment process tends to refer to certain formal standards that do not always reflect the real potential of young job seekers, especially those from lower-middle economic backgrounds. This study uses a descriptive qualitative approach with data collection techniques through field observations, in-depth interviews with job fair participants, and documentation of materials and selection mechanisms used by companies. The results of the study indicate that many young people experience obstacles in meeting administrative and technical standards, such as expertise certification, work experience, and foreign language-based communication skills, which are now dominant requirements in labor selection. The gap between the actual abilities of young people and the demands of the labor market indicates hidden social exclusion in the recruitment system. These findings also highlight the minimal role of the state in equipping young people with skills that are in accordance with industry needs. This study recommends that the government not only facilitate recruitment through job fairs, but also be active in building a vocational training system based on local needs and reformulating a selection mechanism that is more inclusive and fair for all levels of youth.

This study aims to examine the influence of the number of poor people, average years of schooling, and labor force participation rate on the open unemployment rate (OUR) in Maluku Province from 2017 to 2023. The study uses panel data from 11 districts/cities and applies a regression model using a fixed effect approach. The results show that the average years of schooling have a positive and significant effect on the open unemployment rate. This implies that the longer an individual pursues education, the higher the likelihood of unemployment, as they tend to have higher job expectations and are less willing to accept available jobs. Meanwhile, the labor force participation rate has a negative and significant effect, indicating that a higher number of actively working individuals leads to a lower unemployment rate. The number of poor people does not have a significant effect on unemployment. Overall, the model explains approximately 53.5% of the variation in the open unemployment rate. These findings indicate that education and labor participation are crucial factors in reducing unemployment, but must be supported by the availability of suitable employment opportunities.

In the era of rapid digital transformation, digital sovereignty has become a strategic issue for ASEAN countries, including Indonesia. Digital sovereignty encompasses a country's ability to manage data, technological infrastructure, and information systems independently without foreign intervention. This study aims to analyze Indonesia's strategies in strengthening digital sovereignty through regional cooperation within ASEAN. A descriptive qualitative approach is employed to illustrate the dynamics of Indonesia’s domestic and regional policies, with data obtained from literature studies, official government documents, and international publications related to cybersecurity. The findings indicate that Indonesia is actively developing national policies such as the Personal Data Protection Act (PDP Law), building national digital infrastructure, and launching strategic projects such as the SATRIA-1 Satellite. At the regional level, Indonesia plays an active role in forums such as the ASEAN Digital Ministers' Meeting (ADGMIN) and ASEAN-CERT, as well as initiating the establishment of the ASEAN Digital Resilience Task Force. However, significant challenges remain, including institutional fragmentation at the national level, digital infrastructure gaps, limited human resources, and varying political commitments among ASEAN member states. This study concludes that Indonesia's strategy must be accompanied by strengthened inter-agency coordination, capacity building of human resources, and harmonization of regional digital policies to create a secure, sovereign, and inclusive ASEAN digital ecosystem.

This research aims to examine how the predicted years in school and the unemployment rate influence labor force participation (TPAK) in Aceh Province. Across several cities and communities in Aceh, it employs secondary panel data from the Central Bureau of Statistics (BPS).  Panel regression analysis is done using the Random Effect Model (REM) approach in this study. The results show that TPAK is negatively and substantially affected by the unemployment rate, while the projected years of schooling have no significant statistical impact. TPAK changes are generally only marginally affected by either of these causes. The coefficient of determination reveals that the model explains only 8. 3% of the TPAK swings. Although education and unemployment are components of labor market behavior, other, more important variables are more crucial in influencing labor force participation in Aceh, as these results suggest.

This study aims to determine the effect of career planning on students' job readiness, using a case study of university students in Medan City. The background of this research is based on the low job readiness among students, often caused by the lack of structured career planning. This research employs a descriptive quantitative method with a sample of 35 respondents. Data analysis techniques include validity and reliability tests, normality test, heteroscedasticity test, simple linear regression, t-test, and determination test. The normality test results show that the data are normally distributed (sig. = 0.769 > 0.05). The heteroscedasticity test indicates no heteroscedasticity problem. Regression analysis results show that career planning has a significant effect on job readiness, with a significance value of 0.002 (< 0.05). The coefficient of determination (R²) is 0.250, indicating that 25% of job readiness is explained by career planning. It can be concluded that the better the career planning possessed by students, the higher their readiness to enter the job market. This study supports the importance of early career development for students.  

Occupational diseases continue to pose significant challenges to worker health and productivity worldwide. This integrative literature review analyzes ten selected journal articles from 2019 to 2025 that discuss the role of early detection and workplace health interventions in preventing occupational diseases. Findings reveal that medical surveillance, routine check-ups, and AI-based stress detection technologies are effective tools for identifying health risks at an early stage. Workplace interventions such as ergonomic programs, chemical exposure controls, and community-based health promotion show measurable improvements in worker health and compliance with safety protocols. The Total Worker Health® framework by NIOSH emerges as a comprehensive strategy to integrate health protection and promotion in the workplace. However, implementation gaps remain, particularly in the informal sector, due to limited infrastructure and low awareness. This study concludes that combining early detection with structured health interventions, supported by strong policy and stakeholder involvement, is key to reducing occupational disease burdens.

This research explores the influence of compensation and motivation on employee productivity in the Food & Beverage industry in South Tangerang. Employing a quantitative method with a sample of 100 respondents, regression analysis results indicate that both compensation and motivation significantly contribute positively to productivity. Compensation contributes by 0.146 units, while motivation contributes by 0.119 units to the increase in productivity. Although the model explains only around 20.5% of the variation in productivity, the study provides significant insights. It is concluded that fair compensation policies and enhanced motivation can boost employee performance. Despite unexplained variations, these findings offer a foundation for companies to improve human resource management policies.

This study aims to analyze the influence of economic growth and education quality on labor absorption in 27 regencies/cities of West Java Province during the 2020–2024 period using the Random Effect Model (REM) method. The estimation results show that economic growth has a positive and significant effect on labor absorption, with a coefficient of 0.322424 and a p-value of 0.0002. This indicates that regional economic growth contributes to increasing employment opportunities. On the other hand, the quality of education, measured by the average years of schooling, has a negative and insignificant effect on labor absorption, with a coefficient of -0.706782 and a p-value of 0.0755. These findings suggest that improvements in formal education do not automatically lead to increased labor absorption, likely due to a mismatch between graduate qualifications and labor market needs. The Adjusted R-squared value of 0.091650 indicates that the model explains only about 9.16% of the variation in labor absorption, with the remaining variation influenced by other unobserved factors. Therefore, strategic policies are needed, such as the development of labor-intensive sectors and the improvement of vocational education quality and relevance, to optimally enhance labor absorption in West Java.

The transformation of the modern labor market has posed significant challenges for young people, particularly in the form of career uncertainty, excessive work flexibility, and the mismatch between education and labor market demands. This study aims to explore how Indonesian youth respond to these conditions through the lens of ambivalence and resilience theories by Colombo & Rebughini. The research uses a qualitative method with in-depth interviews involving two university graduates working in fields unrelated to their academic backgrounds. The findings reveal that the lack of job stability, economic pressure, and educational mismatch drive young people to develop various adaptive strategies. These include personal resilience such as introspection and optimism, as well as social resilience supported by family and peer networks. Furthermore, the meaning of work among youth is shifting—not merely as a source of income, but as a space for self-actualization, skill relevance, and psychological comfort. This is consistent with previous studies in SINTA-indexed journals, which emphasize that Indonesian youth today are redefining success and meaningful work within an increasingly ambivalent social landscape. The study concludes that youth are not merely passive victims of economic uncertainty but are also active agents in constructing their own narratives of work and life. Therefore, it is essential for educational institutions, industries, and the state to provide adaptive environments that allow youth to grow sustainably within a dynamic labor ecosystem.

This research is conducted using the normative juridical method and aims to analyse the impact of the enactment of the Perppu on the regulation of non-minimum authorised capital in the establishment of a limited liability company. The Perppu on Job Creation changes several important aspects of the Limited Liability Company Law, including the elimination of the minimum authorised capital requirement. While these changes are intended to ease the establishment of micro, small, and medium enterprises (UMKM) and adapt to economic and technological developments, there are concerns regarding their impact on creditor protection and public confidence in limited liability companies established without clear authorised capital. The results show that the lack of clarity regarding authorised capital may negatively impact the company's credibility, access to financing, and legal protection. This change can also reduce trust from external parties such as investors, creditors, and business partners, and create uncertainty among employees and management.

The Environmental Impact Assessment (AMDAL) licensing process in Indonesia faces significant challenges regarding meaningful public participation, particularly following the implementation of the Job Creation Law (UU Cipta Kerja). Objective: This research analyzes the urgency for reconstructing public participation mechanisms in AMDAL formation and proposes ideal regulatory frameworks for enhanced community involvement in environmental decision-making processes. This normative legal research employs conceptual and statutory approaches, utilizing qualitative descriptive analysis of legal materials including primary sources (legislation and court decisions) and secondary sources (legal literature and scholarly articles). The study reveals that post-Job Creation Law implementation has significantly restricted public participation scope, limiting involvement to only directly affected communities while excluding environmental advocates and civil society organizations from AMDAL processes. The transition from AMDAL Assessment Commission to Environmental Feasibility Assessment Team has further centralized decision-making authority and reduced community representation. Reconstruction of public participation mechanisms is urgently needed to restore meaningful community involvement, implement good environmental governance principles, and ensure transparency, accountability, and inclusive stakeholder engagement in environmental impact assessment processes.

This study evaluates the implementation of Behavior Based Safety (BBS) in improving occupational safety compliance at PT Wichindo Pratama, a heavy equipment manufacturing company with high work risks. The topic was chosen due to frequent violations of safety procedures, such as the improper use of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and neglect of Standard Operating Procedures (SOP), which increase the risk of accidents. A qualitative method was used through direct observation, in-depth interviews with 12 shift workers, and field assessments of safety facilities. The findings show that although the company has an Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) management system, non-compliance still occurs. Issues include incomplete PPE usage, disorganized work tools, and unsafe rest habits. Observations revealed potential hazards such as physical (noise), chemical (oil exposure), ergonomic (awkward postures), mechanical (machine use without full PPE), biological, and psychological risks (stress from shift work). BBS is seen as a strategy to connect existing OHS policies with safe work behavior by focusing on mindset and daily habits. The implementation of BBS is expected to reduce accidents and support the creation of a safer, more sustainable workplace.

This study examines the legal conflict between workers' wage claims and state tax obligations in bankruptcy proceedings under Indonesian law, focusing on the constitutional imperative to prioritize workers' rights. The Introduction contextualizes the tension between Article 95(4) of the Labor Law, which mandates wage prioritization, and tax legislation granting precedence to state claims, highlighting the landmark Constitutional Court Decision No. 67/PUU-XI/2013 that affirmed workers' constitutional rights to timely wages. Employing a Method of normative legal research, the analysis integrates statutory and case approaches, reviewing laws on bankruptcy (UU No. 37/2004), labor rights, and taxation, alongside judicial decisions and international frameworks like ILO Conventions No. 100 and 111. Results reveal that while the Constitutional Court’s decision established workers’ absolute priority over tax claims, regulatory disharmony persists due to conflicting provisions in the Tax Law (UU KUP) and the 2020 Job Creation Law (UU Cipta Kerja), which ambiguously subordinates tax claims only to secured creditors. Discussion underscores the necessity for legal synchronization to align labor and tax regulations, ensuring compliance with Gustav Radbruch’s principles of legal certainty and Hans Kelsen’s normative hierarchy. The study advocates legislative reforms to codify workers’ priority in bankruptcy, drawing parallels with Malaysia’s Employment Act 1955 and France’s AGS system, which institutionalize wage protection. By addressing regulatory contradictions, Indonesia can harmonize constitutional mandates with fiscal policies, balancing social justice and economic stability.

Sebatik Island, which is located on the border of Indonesia and Malaysia, is a very strategic area but is vulnerable to illegal immigration problems. The unclear geography, as well as the social and economic dependence of the community on Malaysia, worsens the situation by creating illegal crossing routes that are difficult to monitor. This article explores various collaborative efforts made by Indonesia and Malaysia to strengthen supervision and law enforcement in the Sebatik Island area. These efforts include joint patrols, cross-border coordination, improving immigration facilities, and more integrated law enforcement. However, obstacles such as differences in policy, limited personnel and the strength of smuggling networks still hamper the effectiveness of border management. For this reason, more intensive cooperation is needed, to ensure the protection of state sovereignty and the welfare of border communities.
