This research aims to analyse the implementation of digital innovation in passport services at the Class I Immigration Office Tanjung Perak as part of bureaucratic reform and Good Governance initiatives. The study employed a qualitative case study approach, involving in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and document analysis, to assess the successes and challenges of digital systems such as SIMKIM and M-Paspor. The findings reveal that digital innovation has successfully improved operational efficiency and generally provided transparency into costs and application status, whilst reducing queuing times and increasing service speed, thereby enhancing public satisfaction and trust in immigration services. However, the innovation has not fully addressed structural and cultural bureaucratic barriers, as field officers tend to become passive when systems experience errors or delays, struggling to provide detailed explanations about issues, which results in information ambiguity and potentially undermines procedural transparency and performance accountability principles. The study concludes that bureaucratic reform in the immigration sector requires internal cultural updates and enhanced human resource competencies to support comprehensive transparency and accountability. Digital infrastructure instability and officers' discretionary authority significantly influence the effectiveness of digital innovation. Whilst digital innovation offers substantial benefits in efficiency and transparency, its success depends heavily on strengthening systems, improving human resource skills, and fostering organisational cultural change, with continuous efforts essential for achieving effective, transparent, and accountable public service.

This study provides a comprehensive analysis of the performance of the Travel Document Section at Tanjung Perak Immigration Office within the framework of Public Administration. Employing a qualitative, case-study approach, the research investigates the efficiency, effectiveness, and quality of immigration services, emphasising the application of New Public Management (NPM) principles and Good Governance practices. The findings reveal that while technological innovations such as digital systems (M-Passport and SIMKIM) have successfully improved operational efficiency and reduced physical queues, challenges persist regarding procedural transparency, accountability, and system reliability. Human errors and inconsistent discretion in handling complex documents highlight the need for enhanced capacity building and resource allocation. Moreover, issues of bureaucratic transparency and integrity undermine public trust, underscoring the importance of strengthening internal controls and communication strategies. The study also underscores that service quality is multidimensional, encompassing physical facilities, interpersonal professionalism, and procedural clarity, all of which influence public satisfaction. Despite improvements, the gap between technological efficiency and service effectiveness suggests that further efforts are needed to integrate digital innovations with robust procedural protocols. The research concludes that sustainable performance improvement requires a balanced focus on technological, human, and systemic factors, fostering a culture of transparency, accountability, and continuous development. These insights offer valuable policy recommendations to enhance the robustness and responsiveness of immigration services, ultimately strengthening the legitimacy and trust of government institutions in delivering public services.

However, in terms of human resource management, there are still shortcomings, with an average of 28 health workers per health facility, both civil servants and non-civil servants, reflecting an imbalance in workforce needs. Furthermore, the implementation of human resource development is supported by leadership commitment, inter-agency collaboration, and budget support from the provincial and central governments. However, it is hampered by limited qualified personnel, frequent policy changes, and the impact of natural disasters.

This study aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of how psychological well-being (PWB) influences employee performance through a Systematic Literature Review approach. By analyzing a range of relevant and open-access studies, this review synthesizes key findings to identify patterns that explain the relationship between psychological well-being and work outcomes. The analysis reveals that PWB is a crucial internal factor shaping productive, stable, and consistent employee behavior. Individuals with higher levels of psychological well-being tend to demonstrate stronger motivation, higher discipline, and better adaptability when facing pressure or organizational changes. Beyond its direct influence, PWB also acts as a connecting variable between other determinants such as job satisfaction, work-life balance, and organizational support and improved performance. Overall, the review highlights that psychological well-being is not merely a personal condition but a strategic resource that significantly contributes to long term organizational productivity. Therefore, enhancing employee well-being should be integrated into human resource management practices as both a preventive measure and a long term capacity building strategy.

Economic growth is the process of increasing a country's production capacity to generate goods and services over a specific period, reflecting the income and well-being of its people. This research aims to analyse the influence of labor, exchange rates, and exports on the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of the manufacturing sector in Indonesia during the period 2010-2024. The method used is multiple linear regression analysis with the Ordinary Least Square (OLS) approach, using secondary data obtained from the Central Bureau of Statistics (BPS) and Bank Indonesia (BI). The research results indicate that all three independent variables, namely labor, exchange rate, and exports, have a positive and significant impact on the GDP of the manufacturing sector, both partially and simultaneously. The coefficient of determination (Adjusted R2) value of 0.9633 indicates that 96.33% of the variation in industrial sector GDP can be explained by these three variables, while 3.76% is influenced by factors outside the model. This research confirms that increased labour productivity, exchange rate stability, and export growth play an important role in strengthening the performance of the manufacturing sector in Indonesia. Therefore, policies focused on improving the quality of human resources, strengthening export competitiveness, and ensuring macroeconomic stability are needed to support the sustainable and globally competitive growth of the manufacturing sector.

The company must be able to make the right policies so that the company can maintain its survival, so that the company can compete with competing companies and gain the trust of consumers. One of the important factors in achieving goals is HR (Human Resources) which has a very important role in determining the success of a company. This research aims to analyze the effect of work-life balance on job satisfaction and employee performance. This type of research uses quantitative research with a questionnaire instrument. The results of descriptive analysis show that all indicators of work-life balance, job satisfaction, and employee performance are in the “Good Enough” category, indicating that respondents' perceptions of work-life balance, job satisfaction, and employee performance still need to be improved. Validity and reliability tests show that the instruments used are valid and reliable. The results of structural model testing show that work-life balance has a significant and strong effect on employee performance (O=0.822; p<0.001) and job satisfaction (O=0.677; p<0.001), while job satisfaction also affects performance (O=0.367; p=0.006). In addition to the direct effect, there is also a significant indirect effect of work-life balance on performance through job satisfaction (O=0.249; p=0.011). Work-life balance improves employee performance, both directly and through increased job satisfaction, so companies are advised to create policies that support work-life balance in order to create a productive and sustainable work environment.

This study investigates the impact of green accounting practices on corporate environmental performance, with a focus on manufacturing firms in Indonesia. Green accounting, which involves the identification, measurement, and reporting of environmental costs, is increasingly recognized as a strategic tool for enhancing corporate accountability and sustainability. However, in developing countries, its implementation remains limited and fragmented. Using a qualitative approach, this research explores how green accounting mechanisms are integrated into corporate decision-making processes and how they influence key environmental performance indicators such as energy efficiency and waste reduction. Data were collected through semi structured interviews with environmental and finance managers from five companies actively participating in the PROPER environmental rating program. Thematic analysis revealed that firms with advanced environmental accounting practices achieved higher energy savings and waste reduction outcomes, as well as superior PROPER ratings. These improvements are directly linked to the strategic use of environmental data in operational planning and investment decisions. Nonetheless, challenges such as the lack of technical guidelines, insufficient human resources, and the absence of standardized frameworks remain significant barriers to broader adoption. The study contributes to the growing literature on sustainability accounting in emerging economies and offers practical implications for policymakers and corporate practitioners seeking to institutionalize green accounting as part of sustainable business governance.

This study aims to analyze the effect of work stress and work discipline on the effectiveness of human resources (HR) in employees of the Communication and Information Service (Diskominfo) of Ciamis Regency. The effectiveness of human resources is crucial for the success of government agencies in public services and information technology management, where the optimal performance of employees is influenced by stress management and discipline levels. This study adopted a quantitative-descriptive method by distributing questionnaires to 40 respondents who were selected through random sampling techniques. The data testing included validity, reliability, and multiple linear regression analysis tests to test the relationship of independent variables (work stress $X_1$ and work discipline $X_2$) to bound variables (HR effectiveness $Y$). The results of the analysis show that work stress and work discipline simultaneously have a significant effect on the effectiveness of human resources. Partially, work stress has a negative influence, indicating that increased work stress tends to reduce the effectiveness of human resources. On the contrary, work discipline has been shown to have a positive effect, showing that the higher the employee's discipline, the more their work effectiveness will increase. Therefore, the conclusion emphasizes that increasing the effectiveness of human resources requires the implementation of effective work stress management and the establishment of a consistent work discipline culture. This effort is important to create a conducive work environment, increase productivity, and strengthen the performance of the state civil apparatus in supporting an electronic-based government system and digital public services.

The digital era demands that organizations be fast-moving, adaptable, and innovative. With the advancement of information technology, changes in work methods, global competition, and stakeholder demands are becoming increasingly complex. Knowledge Management (KM) plays an important role as a strategic mechanism for identifying, acquiring, storing, sharing, and utilizing knowledge to improve organizational effectiveness and efficiency. In this context, knowledge management becomes one of the important elements for organizations to enhance performance. Knowledge management is not just about collecting data or information, but how organizations can store, share, create, and utilize knowledge to gain a competitive advantage. This article aims to analyze the importance of knowledge management for organizational performance in the digital age, including how the digital era changes the dimensions of knowledge management, how knowledge management contributes to organizational performance, the challenges faced, and their implications. The data obtained for this study were gathered from observations thru interviews with relevant parties and a literature review study by examining the results of empirical research from the past five years (2020–2025). The method used was descriptive literature analysis of 15 scientific articles from accredited national journals. The analysis focuses on the relationship between knowledge management dimensions (knowledge creation, storage, sharing, and application) and organizational performance indicators (financial performance, innovation, productivity, and customer satisfaction). The study results show that the implementation of knowledge management significantly contributes to improving organizational performance, both directly thru increased efficiency and effectiveness of work processes, and indirectly thru strengthening a culture of innovation and organizational learning. This article asserts that an organization's success in the digital age is not solely determined by its ability to adopt technology, but also by its ability to manage and leverage knowledge as a strategic resource. Therefore, knowledge management needs to be systematically integrated into the organization's digital strategy, accompanied by strengthening a learning culture, human resource training, and adaptive information technology systems.

This study aims to analyze in depth the implementation of the OHS program at PT XY, a medium-scale food manufacturing company, by reviewing the applicable policies, program implementation, obstacles encountered, and potential strategies for improvement. The study used a qualitative descriptive approach through direct observation in the production area, semi-structured interviews with 12 informants consisting of managers, supervisors, and operators, and a review of various internal company documents related to OHS. The research findings revealed that the company has a formally formulated OHS policy supported by regular training, but its implementation is not evenly distributed across all work units. Key weaknesses include inconsistent internal audit implementation, low worker awareness in reporting incidents, and a limited number of human resources with specific OHS competencies. Based on these findings, the study recommends strengthening the risk-based OHS management system, increasing human resource capacity, and integrating OHS indicators into the production performance evaluation system to support more optimal OHS implementation in the company.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the extent to which work discipline and the physical work environment influence employee performance at CV X. The research was conducted using a quantitative approach involving all 45 production employees, with a saturation sampling method to ensure that every member of the population was represented. Data were collected through a structured questionnaire using a five-point Likert scale, while hypothesis testing was carried out using the SEM-PLS method to obtain more accurate estimates of the relationships among variables. The results reveal that both work discipline and the physical workplace contribute significantly to performance improvement. The physical work environment shows a positive and meaningful effect on employee performance, as indicated by a path coefficient of 0.464, a T-statistic of 2.309, and a P-value of 0.002. Similarly, work discipline also demonstrates a constructive influence, supported by a path coefficient of 0.403, a T-statistic of 2.786, and a P-value of 0.006. Based on the R-square value of 0.701, the two variables collectively explain 70.1% of the variance in employee performance. These findings highlight the importance of fostering disciplined work behavior while simultaneously enhancing environmental conditions in the workplace. Improving the physical layout, comfort, and safety, along with reinforcing consistent adherence to organizational rules, can substantially elevate performance outcomes at CV X.

This study evaluates the implementation of Government Regulation Number 94 of 2021 concerning Civil Servant Discipline, assessing its impact on enhancing the effectiveness and accountability of public administration within Sidoarjo Regency. Civil servant discipline constitutes a critical instrument in bureaucratic reform oriented towards good governance and high-quality public services. This research employs a qualitative approach utilising William Dunn's policy evaluation model, which encompasses the dimensions of effectiveness, efficiency, adequacy, responsiveness, and appropriateness. Data were collected through documentary analysis of prevailing legislation, local government performance reports, SAKIP (Government Agency Performance Accountability System) reports, SPIP (Government Internal Control System) reports, and digital human resource management system documents. Data analysis was conducted qualitatively, employing source triangulation to ensure the validity of the findings. The evaluation results indicate that Government Regulation 94/2021 is effective in reducing work procedure deviations, enhancing public service consistency, and strengthening accountability through clear audit trails. Integration with the 'Smart ASN' (State Civil Apparatus) and 'e-Kinerja' (e-Performance) systems reinforces the objectivity of performance assessments and minimises subjectivity. However, challenges persist regarding aspects of organisational culture, supervisory capacity, and the quality of infraction documentation. This study concludes that consistent disciplinary enforcement, when integrated with performance management systems, serves as a driving force for bureaucratic effectiveness and accountability. It further accelerates the consolidation of regional bureaucratic reform, fostering a bureaucracy that is professional, maintains high integrity, and is responsive to societal needs.
