This study aims to analyze the application of personnel management information systems at the West Sumba Regency Personnel and Human Resources Development Agency (BKPSDM). The main focus of the research is to assess how an integrated information system is able to produce up-to-date, accurate, and can support the decision-making process in personnel policy. An integrated information system is expected to facilitate employee data management, improve administrative efficiency, and strengthen transparency in human resource management. The research method uses a qualitative approach with case studies, through interviews with relevant officials, direct observation, and analysis of relevant documents. The results of the study show that the implementation of an integrated personnel management information system has a positive impact in the form of accelerating administrative processes, reducing data input errors, and facilitating access to information for interested parties. However, the research also found a number of challenges, such as the limitation of human resources trained in the use of technology systems and infrastructure that is not yet optimal. This study concludes that strengthening human resource capacity and increasing infrastructure support is a strategic step to optimize the personnel management information system. The research recommendations are expected to be a reference for the West Sumba Regency BKPSDM and other government agencies in developing a more effective and sustainable information system.

This study aims to analyze the implementation of human resource management (HRM) audits in motivating employee performance at CV Cipta Alignment Constructions (CV.CLC). HRM audits serve as an evaluative and strategic tool in assessing the effectiveness of personnel functions such as recruitment, training, career development, and reward systems. The study used a qualitative approach with a case study method through interviews, observation, and documentation. The results show that HRM audits have a positive effect on employee motivation and performance by increasing work morale, placing employees according to competencies, and reducing turnover. Based on Resource-Based Theory (Barney, 1991), HRM audits are valuable and difficult-to-imitate strategic resources, thus supporting a company's competitive advantage. These findings emphasize the importance of implementing HRM audits continuously as part of a management strategy to improve organizational effectiveness. The implications of this study provide recommendations for companies to integrate HRM audits into strategic planning to achieve optimal and sustainable performance. In addition, this study also opens opportunities for further studies to strengthen the implementation of HRM audits in different sectors and company scales.

This research evaluates the effectiveness of human capital development policies in Indonesia within the education and health sectors during the periods of 2015–2019 and 2020–2024. The analysis focuses on strategic programs implemented by the Ministry of Education and Culture and the Ministry of Health by comparing planned targets with the realization of performance indicators as stated in the Strategic Plan (Renstra) documents. The study employs a qualitative evaluative approach supported by descriptive quantitative data derived from official planning and performance reports. The findings indicate that during the 2015–2019 period, programs emphasizing the expansion of basic education and health services were relatively effective in increasing participation rates and improving equitable access. In contrast, programs aimed at enhancing the quality of human resources, particularly teacher development and institutional capacity building, showed lower levels of effectiveness due to weak performance measurement systems and inconsistent data reporting. During the 2020–2024 period, the effectiveness of most education and health programs declined significantly as a result of external shocks caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. However, health programs with strong financial protection mechanisms, such as the National Health Insurance (JKN), demonstrated greater resilience compared to other programs. The study concludes that the effectiveness of human capital development policies is strongly influenced by the clarity of performance indicators, consistency in program implementation, institutional capacity, and the ability of policies to adapt to external disruptions.

This research aims to: 1) examine the development of the Human Development Index (HDI), Labor Force Participation Rate (LFPR), population size, economic growth, and the poverty gap index in the regencies/cities of Jambi Province from 2020 to 2024; and 2) analyze the influence of the Human Development Index, Labor Force Participation Rate, population size, and economic growth on the poverty gap index in the regencies/cities of Jambi Province. The research method employed is descriptive quantitative. The analytical tool used is Panel Data Regression through the Fixed Effect Model (FEM) approach, processed with EViews 12 software. The results show that the Human Development Index, population size, and economic growth have a significant influence on the poverty gap index in the regencies/cities of Jambi Province during the 2020-2024 period. Conversely, the LFPR does not have a significant effect on the poverty gap index in the region during the same period. These findings imply the importance of strengthening human resource quality through HDI improvement and more inclusive economic growth policies in Jambi Province. Furthermore, the government needs to evaluate the quality of available employment, as the high Labor Force Participation Rate (LFPR) has not yet been able to significantly reduce the depth of poverty.

Tegal Regency is a region in Central Java Province. Geographically, Tegal Regency is situated on a highly advantaged path. This regency, with its capital in Slawi, boasts a diverse range of economic centers spread across several regions. Dominated by small and medium-sized industries, the community can be empowered and participate in improving their well-being through job creation. Small and Medium Industry centers are highly diverse. One area we highlight in this article is the potential of metal and machinery SMEs, which are crucial commodities in the local economy. The metal industry is located around Talang District. The metal and machinery sector holds significant promise due to the potential for increased manufacturing demand, which can boost the local economy. In this study, we used field research and interviews to understand how the SME economy operates. By highlighting this, we hope that the government will focus on SMEs, particularly in the metal and machinery sector, by providing incentives for training and improving product quality and human resources. Based on the above description, local economic growth is highly possible with the support of adequate facilities and infrastructure.

This study aims to analyze the implementation of the 360-degree feedback method in employee performance evaluation in the Preventive Maintenance department of PT. Doulton. Employee performance evaluation is a crucial element in an organization to ensure work effectiveness, competency improvement, and continuous development of human resource quality. This study uses performance assessment data from six employees with indicators in the form of assessment scores, performance categories, feedback, and corrective action plans. The results show that employee performance assessment scores range from 28.6 to 40.2, with the majority of employees falling into the “adequate” performance category. The findings also indicate that the dominant aspects of feedback are the need to improve consistency, communication, initiative, and work effectiveness. The most recommended follow-up strategy is coaching, while for employees with excellent performance, development through leadership training and promotion is recommended. Conceptually, the implementation of feedback-based performance evaluation has supported the principle of continuous development, but the implementation of the 360-degree method still requires strengthening, especially in the multi-source aspect of assessment to be more objective, comprehensive, and in accordance with the theoretical characteristics of 360-degree feedback. Thus, implementing this method can be an effective strategy for improving employee performance and career development in the Preventive Maintenance department if implemented systematically and involving various assessors.  

Indrokilo Botanical Garden in Boyolali is an environment-based tourism area that serves strategic functions as an ex-situ conservation institution, as well as a center for education, research, and knowledge-based recreation. However, its management still faces challenges in maintaining a balance between tourism development and conservation mandates. This study aims to analyze the role of management performance in promoting ecotourism sustainability at Indrokilo Botanical Garden from environmental, social, and economic perspectives. The research employed a qualitative descriptive approach. Data were collected through field observations and in-depth interviews with purposely selected informants, including management authorities, field officers, local community members, and visitors. The findings indicate that management performance at Indrokilo Botanical Garden has been relatively effective in daily operational activities, such as site maintenance and visitor services. Nevertheless, limitations remain in long-term strategic planning, human resource capacity development, and the active involvement of local communities as management partners. These constraints have resulted in the suboptimal implementation of conservation and educational functions. The study demonstrates that management performance plays a crucial role in determining ecotourism sustainability by ensuring a balance between environmental protection, social benefits, and economic viability. Therefore, strengthening management performance is essential to support sustainable ecotourism development at Indrokilo Botanical Garden.

Stunting remains a chronic nutritional issue affecting human resource quality in Indonesia, particularly children under five years old. High prevalence of stunting impacts long-term cognitive development, physical growth, and productivity of the young generation (Ministry of Health, 2023). This community service aims to optimize the role of public administration in disseminating policies and programs to reduce stunting through education, training, and direct community assistance. Activities were carried out through coordination with government officials, community health cadres, and local leaders, using local communication media to raise awareness about nutrition. The results indicate an increase in community knowledge on stunting, balanced nutrition practices, and active involvement of both officials and residents in stunting reduction programs. Optimizing public administration through capacity building, cross-sector coordination, and information technology utilization supports program targets. This service recommends strategies for sustainable, participatory, and data-driven program implementation.

Education is a planned effort aimed at creating an effective learning environment where students can develop their potentials; it seeks to ensure that students become individuals who are confident, competent, independent, and responsible. Introducing students to the Qur'an is one of the ways to increase their faith. Education that includes Qur'an study has a very broad purpose, with its main goal being to influence the individual as a being who obeys their Creator and to reflect this through Islamic values. This study aims to evaluate the Tahfiz Qur'an program at SMA-TQ Mu'adz bin Jabal using the CIPP evaluation model. The research was conducted at SMA-TQ Mu'adz bin Jabal Kendari, using a qualitative descriptive method with the CIPP model (Context, Input, Process, and Product). The reason the author uses the CIPP evaluation model to evaluate the Tahfiz Al-Quran program is because it provides relevance in the decision-making process related to the planning of the program being implemented.The data collection process was conducted using observation and interview techniques. The results of this study show that the Tahfidz Al-Quran program at SMA-TQ Mu'adz bin Jabal Kendari has made real progress or development in every component—context, input, process, and product. These range from human resources supporting the program to facilities that do not create much burden and do not require special funding. However, the collaboration between the school and the parents has not yet been effectively implemented; this is because not every parent is able to track their children’s progress in Quran memorization.

The rapid development of digital communication has encouraged social organizations to optimize online-based donation campaigns. Grandma Foundation still faces limitations in utilizing visual content, particularly video, due to the limited video editing skills of its volunteers. This Community Service Program aimed to enhance volunteers’ capacity in producing creative video content to strengthen the foundation’s online donation campaigns. The program employed a participatory educational approach through video editing training, content production assistance, campaign video simulations, and output evaluation. The activity was conducted on October 25–26, 2025, involving 20 volunteers of Grandma Foundation in South Tangerang. The results indicate an improvement in volunteers’ understanding and skills in visual storytelling, video editing techniques, and social media content distribution strategies. The program produced campaign videos that were more communicative, persuasive, and aligned with the characteristics of digital audiences. This initiative contributed to strengthening the foundation’s institutional image, expanding the reach of online donation campaigns, and enhancing the readiness of human resources to respond to digital communication challenges.

Nature-based tourism development has a strategic role in encouraging sustainable local economic growth, especially in rural areas such as Marente Village, Kabupaten Sumbawa. Agal Waterfall is one of the natural tourism destinations that has high attractiveness, but its utilization is still not optimal due to limited facilities and infrastructure, access to the location, promotional activities, and the quality of human resources management. This study aims to identify strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats, and determine priority strategies in developing Agal Waterfall tourism using the Quantitative Strategic Planning Matrix (QSPM) method. The research approach used is descriptive quantitative with primary data collected from 100 respondents. Analysis techniques include the preparation of IFAS, EFAS, SWOT, and QSPM matrices. The research findings show that the beauty of the natural environment and community participation are the main strengths, while the limited supporting facilities and promotion are still the dominant weaknesses. Development opportunities are supported by the increasing interest in nature tourism and the utilization of digital platforms, while threats come from competition between tourist destinations and the potential for environmental degradation. Based on the results of the analysis, priority strategies suggested include improving basic facilities, optimizing digital-based promotions, strengthening the capacity of human resource managers, and implementing the principles of sustainable tourism.

This study aims to analyze the influence of leadership and human resource quality on work productivity in the Human Resources Division of PT Pembangunan Perumahan (PP) Tbk. The research uses a quantitative associative approach with a census method applied to the entire population of 60 employees in the HR Division. Data were collected through questionnaires and analyzed using simple and multiple linear regression with SPSS 24.0. The results show that leadership has a positive and significant effect on work productivity (regression coefficient = 0.975; determination = 95.1%). Human resource quality also has a positive and significant effect (regression coefficient = 0.978; determination = 95.6%). Together, both variables influence work productivity with a determination coefficient of 96.8%. Leadership and human resource quality are critical factors in improving work productivity. Organizations are advised to develop participatory leadership styles and sustainable competency development programs.

Adolescent mental health is an important aspect in human resource development because it affects learning ability, social relationships, and readiness to face adult life. Adolescence, especially at the junior high school level, is a transitional period that is prone to mental and emotional disorders due to biological, psychological, and social changes that occur simultaneously. This study aims to describe the mental health condition of adolescents using the Self Reporting Questionnaire (SRQ-20) instrument in students of SMPN 3 Ubud, Gianyar Regency. The study used a descriptive design with a cross sectional approach. The sampling technique was carried out in total sampling with a total of 117 students. The research instrument is in the form of an SRQ-20 questionnaire that has been proven to be valid and reliable. Data analysis was carried out descriptively to describe the distribution of symptoms and mental health categories of respondents. The results showed that most students were in the category of good mental health, although there were still a number of students with poor conditions. The most common symptoms are easy to feel tired and difficulty in making decisions. Based on the characteristics of respondents, students aged 13–15 years are more likely to experience poor mental health conditions than 11-13 years old, and the proportion of female students is higher than men in experiencing symptoms of mental emotional disorders. These findings affirm the importance of early detection of adolescent mental health in schools as the basis for promotive and preventive interventions, through optimizing the role of counseling guidance and creating a supportive school environment.

This paper reviews the dynamics of cybersecurity in Indonesia, focusing on the role of the Indonesian National Cyber and Crypto Agency (BSSN) in Indonesia’s cybersecurity architecture. The conceptual framework used is cyber security to analyze cybersecurity phenomena in Indonesia and multi-level cybersecurity governance as a tool for analyzing the role of BSSN in the field of cybersecurity. A descriptive qualitative approach is the main methodological approach in this study. With this approach, this study attempts to describe the role of BSSN in Indonesia’s cybersecurity architecture. Data collection was carried out through a literature study obtained from BSSN’s main documents, official reports, and related journal articles. The findings show that BSSN has a strategic role in Indonesian cybersecurity. This strategic role is demonstrated by BSSN’s various achievement in cybersecurity, such as the drafting of a national cybersecurity bill, the development of human resources capacity in the cyber field and the establishment of cooperation with various parties, both domestically and internationally.

Human resource quality serves as a crucial pillar for national development, as it significantly influences a country’s progress and competitiveness. Therefore, enhancing human resource capacity has become a strategic priority, particularly at the regional level where local governments play a vital role. The Government of Bojonegoro Regency has introduced several initiatives to support this objective, including the Ten Scholars per Village Scholarship Program, the Scientist Scholarship, and Final Project Assistance. Despite these efforts, several implementation challenges remain, such as cases of manipulated eligibility requirements among applicants, the absence of a digitized system for registration and document submission, and limited communication channels between program administrators and scholarship recipients. This research seeks to examine, explain, and evaluate the role of local government, especially the Education Office, in executing scholarship programs based on the theoretical framework of government roles as regulator, dynamizer, and facilitator. The study employs a descriptive qualitative method, utilizing observation, interviews, and documentation for data collection, followed by data analysis using the Miles and Huberman model. The findings reveal that although the local government has begun implementing scholarship programs, the execution is not fully effective. Supervision during participant selection focuses mainly on administrative completeness rather than document authenticity. Furthermore, direct outreach activities are limited to certain regions, coordination with village authorities remains minimal, and digital transformation has yet to be realized due to unsuccessful collaboration with the Communication and Information Agency despite several coordination meetings.

This study aims to examine the effect of internal communication and organizational climate on employee job satisfaction at the Center for Learning and Government Management Policy Strategy, National Institute of Public Administration (Pusjar SKMP LAN) Makassar. The research employed a quantitative approach with an explanatory design. The population consisted of all 73 employees of Pusjar SKMP LAN Makassar, and a saturated sampling technique was applied. Data were collected using Likert-scale questionnaires and analyzed through multiple linear regression after meeting validity, reliability, and classical assumption requirements. The results indicate that internal communication and organizational climate simultaneously have a positive and significant effect on employee job satisfaction. Partially, internal communication shows a more dominant influence compared to organizational climate. These findings suggest that information clarity, effective communication channels, timely information delivery, and open feedback mechanisms play a crucial role in enhancing job satisfaction. Furthermore, a supportive organizational climate characterized by leadership support and harmonious working relationships strengthens employee comfort and engagement. This study contributes theoretically to the development of human resource management literature in the public sector and provides practical implications for improving internal communication management and organizational climate within government institutions.

Maneuvering operations represent the most dynamically complex and operationally hazardous phase of a vessel's voyage, demanding precise real-time coordination between deck officers at the bridge and engineer officers in the engine room. Communication breakdowns at this critical interdepartmental interface have been consistently implicated in propulsion-related maritime accidents, yet the collaborative decision-making processes that govern bridge-engine room interaction during maneuvering remain insufficiently examined in the research literature. This study investigates collaborative decision-making patterns between deck and engineer officers during main engine telegraph operations, employing a qualitative observational design grounded in human factors engineering and Crew Resource Management theory. Through 72 hours of structured simulation observation across two maritime training centers and 36 semi-structured officer interviews, the study documents communication pattern frequencies, decision latency behaviors, information-sharing strategies, and CRM competency profiles across both officer categories and experience levels. Findings reveal persistent asymmetries in situational awareness, authority gradient distortions under time pressure, and a systematic underutilization of standardized communication protocols during non-routine maneuvering events. The study contributes a dual-department collaborative framework for bridge-engine room operations and offers evidence-based recommendations for integrated officer training design and propulsion safety protocol development.

Civil servants (ASN) entering retirement represent a strategic human resource asset for national development; however, their potential is often underutilized due to an institutional vacuum. This study identifies this fundamental problem as manifesting in two dimensions: the absence of a cohesive structure among the retired community and the lack of a structure that systematically connects them to the economic empowerment ecosystem. Consequently, the transition from active service to a productive retirement period presents a significant challenge. The purpose of this research is to design an effective institutional forum model to serve as a facilitative bridge. The analysis employs a framework integrating three pillars: Mochtar Kusumaatmadja's Development Law Theory as the philosophical foundation, Ansell and Gash's Collaborative Governance concept as the governance paradigm, and the Pentahelix model as the operational framework. This study proposes a multi-stakeholder collaborative forum designed to synergize the roles of government, industry, academia, communities, and the media. The primary recommendation is the establishment of a formal entity functioning as an incubator and accelerator. This entity is intended not only to address the economic needs of retirees but also to align with the country's constitutional mandate to achieve sustainable social welfare.

Gender based violence against women and children in Lampung Province represents a multidimensional issue that poses serious challenges to human development and the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Although various regulations and programs have been implemented such as Gender Mainstreaming (PUG), Gender Responsive Budgeting (ARG), and local innovations like TAPIS Village and space together with Indonesia (RBI) their implementation remains largely sectoral and lacks systemic coordination. This policy paper employs a descriptive qualitative approach combined with public policy analysis to identify the root cause, namely the absence of an integrated policy framework that ensures cross-sectoral synergy in addressing gender based violence. Data were collected through interviews with key stakeholders and document studies of regional and national planning instruments, including the RPJMD, RENSTRA, and relevant regulations. The analysis reveals that weak inter-agency coordination, limited use of gender-disaggregated data, low human resource capacity, and the absence of an incentive sanction mechanism are the main obstacles to effective policy implementation. Three policy alternatives were formulated: the development of a gender responsive complaint platform for violence against women and children, the integration of gender-disaggregated data systems, and the adoption of a reward punishment system for government agencies. Based on Dunn’s six evaluation criteria, the establishment of a gender-responsive complaint platform is considered the most effective and is recommended as a strategic solution. This policy is expected to strengthen institutional synergy, enhance intervention effectiveness, and foster an inclusive and sustainable protection system for women and children in Lampung Province.

Correspondence management is very important in government administration because it helps all parts of the organization communicate more easily. The purpose of this study was to assess the manual mail management system at the Riau Province Human Resources Development Agency (BPSDM) and find barriers and conformity with applicable regulations, especially Riau Governor Regulation No. 45/2019. The research was conducted using a descriptive qualitative approach involving participatory observation, in-depth interviews, literature research, and visual documentation. The results showed that the manual system used causes recording errors, delays in letter distribution, and difficulties in archive retrieval. In addition, the current provisions have not fully digitized the official manuscript and archive classification. Limitations in budget, infrastructure and HR training lead to mismatches between practices and regulations. The results show that to increase bureaucratic efficiency and improve accountability of public information, we must shift to a digital-based mail management system. According to this study, digitization of archives through applications such as Srikandi should begin immediately. This is necessary so that BPSDM can meet the demands of fast and accurate information services in the era of information technology.
