Almost all formal workers dedicate all their time and energy to their companies during their productive years. As a result, it is very difficult for workers to start other businesses besides their formal jobs. Without the skills and strategies for entrepreneurship, many workers find it difficult to survive when they reach retirement age. From a sustainable human resource management perspective, the retirement preparation period (MPP) is a strategic phase for maintaining the social welfare of employees and taking preventive measures to address post-retirement social issues such as decreased productivity, economic dependence, and individual social roles. For employees who will enter retirement age in the next two years, PT. Sindopex Perotama regularly conducts MPP training. This year, the MPP training was themed “food security to achieve food self-sufficiency in retirement.” PT. Sindopex Perotama collaborated with LS Farm, Trawas Eduwisata Center (TEC), and a team from KH. A. Wahab Hasbullah University (UNWAHA) Jombang as part of the Tridharma community service program. This activity was achieved by applying the results of evaluations from observations of previous activities so that it was on target through proper planning (identifying needs in collaboration with partners), implementing activities, and providing direct assistance at the activity location. This program is expected to bring about social change, such as greater social welfare for employees approaching retirement age, greater economic independence in terms of food, and greater awareness of the role of retirees in maintaining food availability and social harmony in their neighborhoods. In addition, this program demonstrates sustainable human resource management practices in companies that care about the welfare of their employees until they retire.

Quiet quitting refers to a phenomenon in which employees do not formally resign from their jobs but intentionally limit their work efforts to the minimum required. This study aims to adapt the Quiet Quitting Scale developed by Galanis et al. (2023) into the Indonesian context. A quantitative approach was employed involving 100 respondents drawn from both private and government sectors. The adaptation process included forward translation by three linguists, synthesis of the translated versions, and cultural adjustment to ensure contextual relevance. Data were analyzed using Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) based on a three-factor model consisting of detachment, lack of initiative, and lack of motivation. The results indicate that the Indonesian version of the Quiet Quitting Scale demonstrates acceptable construct validity across the proposed factors. However, several items still require refinement, suggesting that further development and validation with larger and more diverse samples are necessary to strengthen the scale’s psychometric properties.

Literature is not only a source of entertainment, but also a tool for contemplating human life that is full of internal conflicts and psychological issues. Short stories as a type of literature often present the realities of life in a concise yet meaningful way, making them interesting to analyze with a variety of scientific methods. This research focuses on the short story "Happiness That Kills" by applying two main approaches, namely the analysis of intrinsic elements and literary psychology. This story depicts a happy state that appears from the outside, but actually hides the emotional burden experienced by the main character, Malla. The method applied in this study is qualitative descriptive with literature study techniques, which is oriented towards the introduction of themes, plots, characters, settings, and mandates, as well as exploring the psychological dynamics of characters using Freud's psychoanalytic theory. The results of the study show that the internal conflicts in this story arise from the battle between the id, ego, and superego, especially when Malla struggles to maintain harmony in her family at the expense of herself. Overall, this short story shows that forced happiness can lead to suffering. By combining structural and psychological analysis, this study reveals the deep meaning related to social pressures, inner struggles, and humanitarian messages that the author seeks to convey. It is hoped that the results of this research can contribute to the study of literature, especially in understanding the relationship between story structure and the psychological condition of characters in contemporary literary works.

This study aims to conduct a pilot evaluation of employee performance in the Raw Material Warehouse Section at PT. IKPP Serang Mill using a checklist-based performance appraisal model. Performance evaluation is a crucial aspect in ensuring the smooth operation of raw material warehouses, which involve a high level of occupational risk and have a direct impact on the continuity of the production process. The checklist method is applied because it integrates quantitative assessment through scoring results with qualitative evaluation in the form of behavioral feedback. This study employs a qualitative descriptive approach supported by quantitative data obtained from performance assessments of ten employees holding various positions, including forklift operators, checkers, shift administrators, and shift supervisors. The results indicate that employee performance falls within a diverse spectrum, categorized as “performance” and “need to improve,” influenced by compliance with standard operating procedures (SOPs), work discipline, communication, and awareness of occupational health and safety (OHS). The findings also demonstrate that the checklist-based model is effective in identifying performance gaps and serves as a basis for formulating improvement actions such as coaching, OHS training, promotions, and administrative sanctions. This study concludes that the checklist model functions not only as an administrative evaluation tool but also as a strategic instrument for human resource development and sustainable organizational performance improvement.

This study aims to carry out a thorough analysis of the use of stylistic elements, particularly in terms of diction and language style, as applied by Pitoyo Amrih to shape the character of Gatotkaca in the novel Sisi Gelap Gatotkaca. The character of Gatotkaca, traditionally depicted as a flawless heroic figure, is reimagined by the author through a more humanistic and reflective linguistic approach. Using a qualitative descriptive method alongside stylistic literary criticism, this article examines how linguistic units within the text serve as rhetorical tools to reveal internal conflicts, existential burdens, and the darker aspects of the main character. The analysis process involves identifying word choices that carry a melancholic tone as well as the prominent use of figurative language, including comparisons, contrasts, and emphatic statements. The findings indicate that the use of archaic and philosophical diction, combined with sharp irony and metaphor, effectively transforms the image of Gatotkaca from merely a symbol of physical strength into a representation of human psychological fragility. This research contributes to literary criticism by highlighting how an author’s language style can alter readers' perceptions of established myths within society's culture.

Semantics is a discipline of linguistics that deeply examines the meaning of words, encompassing the origins of their formation, the process of evolution, and the historical factors that trigger shifts in meaning within a language. In semantic studies, a fundamental distinction is made between denotative meaning, which refers to the literal or actual meaning, and connotative meaning, which carries emotional value or a non-actual, figurative sense. This research focuses on analyzing the variation of both types of meaning in Tere Liye's novel Bulan, with the main objective of comprehensively describing the manifestation of denotative and connotative expressions. The method used is qualitative with a descriptive approach, where the researcher acts as the key instrument (human instrument). This method is also known as the naturalistic approach, as data collection takes place under natural object conditions, with data analysis heavily emphasizing the in-depth qualitative aspects. The results of the study indicate that the use of denotative meaning has a much more dominant frequency than connotative meaning. This dominance occurs because the majority of the narrative in the novel tends to utilize the actual, lexical meaning. This signals the author’s (Tere Liye’s) intention to present the adventure story with straightforward and transparent language, allowing the reader to easily comprehend the storyline without being hindered by the complexity of figurative meaning interpretation.

This study examines the semantic aspects of the poetry anthology Penyair Tanpa Bait by Ahmad Zayn, a contemporary poetic work characterized by free structure and the absence of conventional stanzas. The background of this research is rooted in the need to understand how meaning is constructed in modern poetry that departs from traditional poetic forms. The objective of this study is to describe and analyze lexical, grammatical, and referential meanings contained in the poems in order to reveal their overall semantic structure. This research employs a qualitative descriptive method with a semantic analysis approach. The data consist of words, phrases, and poetic lines selected from the anthology, which are analyzed through stages of data identification, classification, and interpretation of meaning. The findings indicate that the poems predominantly utilize lexical meanings as the foundation of interpretation, while grammatical structures and referential meanings function to strengthen symbolic and contextual meanings. The absence of stanza divisions encourages a continuous flow of meaning that emphasizes semantic cohesion rather than formal structure. The implications of this study contribute to the field of linguistic and literary studies by enriching semantic analysis of contemporary Indonesian poetry and providing a framework for interpreting non-conventional poetic texts.

Referring to Abdul Chaer’s semantic theory, this study aims to explain the denotative and connotative meanings contained in the lyrics of the song “Sorai” by Nadin Amizah. This study applies a qualitative descriptive method and uses content analysis techniques to identify words, phrases, and sentences in the lyrics that contain denotative and connotative meanings. The findings of this study indicate that the connotative meaning is more dominant and is manifested through the use of natural symbols and emotional expressions that represent human relationships, the process of healing inner wounds, sincerity, and acceptance of true love. This study found that the lyrics of the song “Sorai” not only function as a way to convey messages literally, but also as a way to express deep feelings. Therefore, by using Abdul Chaer’s theory, song lyrics can reveal layers of meaning and demonstrate the power of language as an emotional and aesthetic medium in musical works.

Adhi Karya (Persero) Tbk. was awarded the contract for the Yogyakarta-Bawen toll road construction project, Package 1, Section 1. Construction safety is a very important aspect in the project. The toll road construction project involves work at heights, especially on erection grider work. Erection grider work is a high-risk job, so construction safety must be guaranteed. If construction safety is not guaranteed in the work environment, workers will be more careful in working to reduce risks so that work slows down. This can reduce work productivity. However, when safety is guaranteed, workers will feel safe to work so that it can increase work productivity. This study aims to determine the effect of construction safety (X) on work productivity (Y). The data collection method was carried out by distributing questionnaires to 30 respondents of erection grider workers. Data processing used the Structural Equation Modeling–Partial Least Squares (SEM PLS) method with SmartPLS 4.0 software. The results of data processing showed that construction safety had a significant influence on work productivity with a t-statistic value of 7.329 and a p-value of 0.000.
