This study aims to analyze the influence of work motivation and supervision on employee performance through job satisfaction at the Population Control and Family Planning Office (DPPKB) of East Kutai Regency. A quantitative approach was employed using census sampling technique involving 84 employees. Data were analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling-Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS) with SmartPLS software. The results reveal that: (1) work motivation positively and significantly affects job satisfaction (β = 0.263, p = 0.039); (2) supervision has a stronger positive effect on job satisfaction (β = 0.409, p = 0.000); (3) work motivation does not directly affect employee performance (β = 0.136, p = 0.248); (4) supervision does not directly affect employee performance (β = 0.140, p = 0.186); (5) job satisfaction is the strongest predictor of employee performance (β = 0.565, p = 0.000); (6) job satisfaction does not significantly mediate the work motivation–performance relationship (β = 0.149, p = 0.056); and (7) job satisfaction fully mediates the supervision–performance relationship (β = 0.231, p = 0.001). These findings suggest that improving public-sector employee performance requires a humanistic supervisory approach centered on employee psychological well-being.

This study aims to analyze the effect of career development and organizational culture on employee productivity through job satisfaction at the Office of Community and Village Empowerment (DPMD) in East Kutai Regency. The research employs a quantitative explanatory approach using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) with SmartPLS software. Total sampling was applied, involving all 90 employees of the office as respondents. Data were collected through questionnaires with Likert scale measurements. The results demonstrate that career development has a significant positive effect on job satisfaction (coefficient = 0.295, T = 2.532, p = 0.011), and organizational culture has a significant positive effect on job satisfaction (coefficient = 0.441, T = 4.071, p = 0.000). However, career development, organizational culture, and job satisfaction do not have a significant direct effect on employee productivity (H3 through H7 rejected). The coefficient of determination for job satisfaction is 43.1%, indicating that both independent variables explain 43.1% of job satisfaction variance. These findings suggest that although career development and organizational culture successfully improve job satisfaction, mechanisms beyond satisfaction are needed to translate that satisfaction into measurable productivity at DPMD.

This study examines the effects of participative leadership, organizational culture, and work motivation on employee performance through job satisfaction at the Department of Industry and Trade of East Kutai Regency. A quantitative approach with an explanatory research design was employed. The population comprised 108 civil servants and regional contract employees, all of whom were included as research respondents. Data were collected through a structured questionnaire and analyzed using validity and reliability tests, multiple linear regression, t-test, F-test, and path analysis. The findings demonstrate that participative leadership, organizational culture, and work motivation have positive and significant effects on job satisfaction. Partially, these three variables also exert positive and significant effects on employee performance. In addition, job satisfaction was found to have a positive and significant effect on employee performance. The results of the path analysis further indicate that job satisfaction mediates the relationship between participative leadership, organizational culture, work motivation, and employee performance. These findings suggest that efforts to improve employee performance in public sector organizations require the strengthening of participative leadership practices, the development of a supportive organizational culture, the enhancement of work motivation, and the sustainable management of job satisfaction. Accordingly, job satisfaction constitutes an important mechanism through which organizational factors contribute to improved employee performance.

Needle Stick Injury (NSI) is a serious occupational hazard among healthcare workers due to the risk of transmitting bloodborne pathogens. A preliminary study at Puskesmas X found that 60% of healthcare workers had experienced NSI. This study aimed to analyze the relationship between work standards, skills, and training with the incidence of NSI among healthcare workers (nurses and midwives) at Puskesmas X, East Bolaang Mongondow Regency. An analytical observational study with a cross-sectional design was conducted. A total sampling technique was used, resulting in 37 respondents. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire and analyzed using statistical tests. The results showed majority of respondents were aged 26–34 years (67.6%), female (81.1%), and had experienced NSI (73.0%). Statistical analysis showed a significant association between work standards (p = 0.018), skills (p < 0.001), and training (p = 0.014) with NSI incidence. Poor work standards, inadequate clinical skills, and limited participation in training were strongly associated with higher rates of NSI. Community health centers are recommended to implement regular occupational safety training programs to improve the technical skills of healthcare workers.

The Indonesian Archipelagic Sea Lane II (ALKI II) constitutes a strategic route stretching from the Sulawesi Sea to the Indian Ocean with trade values reaching USD 1.5 million daily and traversed by more than 36,773 vessels annually. The complexity of maritime security threats in this region has increasingly intensified following the relocation of the capital city to East Kalimantan, thereby demanding an effective decision support system to assist Indonesian Warship Commanders in making operational decisions that are rapid, accurate, and in accordance with applicable legal provisions. This research employs a qualitative approach through in-depth interviews with four maritime expert sources, with data analysis using NVivo 12 software. Analysis results identified maritime operational complexity and the urgent need for a comprehensive decision support system. These findings subsequently served as guidance in designing a Decision Support System (DSS) with a tab-based interface that integrates international legal frameworks such as UNCLOS 1982, Law No. 3/2025 on TNI, and related national regulations to generate structured action recommendations along with their legal foundations. Research findings demonstrate that the developed DSS successfully integrates operational, legal, and situational aspects to support decision-making that is rapid, accurate, and legally compliant. This system has proven to enhance the effectiveness of Indonesian Warship Commanders in addressing the complexity of maritime security (KAMLA) challenges in ALKI II through the provision of legally-based action recommendations from national and international frameworks accessible in realtime during operational situations.

Methods: The activity was conducted outdoors in the village at night using lecture, PowerPoint presentation, and interactive discussion methods, involving 35 participants consisting of children and village residents of Pargarutan Julu. Results: The activity showed high enthusiasm from participants, with many questions raised during the interactive discussion sessions. There was an increase in community understanding of the importance of waste sorting, the dangers of dumping waste into rivers, the application of the 3R principle, and steps for preparedness against flood and fire disasters. Conclusion: The participatory outdoor educational approach effectively improved knowledge and awareness of Pargarutan Julu Village residents regarding proper waste management and natural disaster preparedness, and encouraged sustainable behavioral change in the community.

The road project serving as access to Lambo Dam in Rendubutowe Village, South Aesesa District, Nagekeo Regency, East Nusa Tenggara, uses various types of heavy equipment. The analysis method was carried out by recalculating productivity based on field data and references. Productivity calculations were related to the work volume in order to obtain daily productivity and the required duration. Therefore, theoretical calculation knowledge derived from previous studies was needed. Heavy equipment productivity was then analyzed to determine time efficiency. The subgrade work and pavement layer work on the road project to Lambo Dam, located in Rendubutowe Village, South Aesesa District, Nagekeo Regency, East Nusa Tenggara, had a road length of 6.3 km and a road width of 6 m. However, the observation was limited to a 1 km section from Station (Sta) 0+500 to Sta 1+500. The results obtained were productivity and duration for excavation work using an excavator and dump truck, each at 1785.6 m³/day in 4.52 days. Embankment work using an excavator and dump truck each had a productivity of 892.8 m³/day for 3.82 days, a bulldozer of 43,200 m³/day in 0.07 days, and a Vibro Roller of 168 m³/day in 20.27 days. Base course work used an excavator and dump truck with a productivity of 892.8 m³/day in 2.02 days, a motor grader of 23,372.8 m2/day, and a Vibro Roller of 168 m³/day for 10.71 days. Surface course work used a concrete Mixer truck with a productivity of 43.4 m³/day for 36.72 days. Heavy equipment productivity is influenced by the number of units used; the insufficient use of excavators causes dump truck productivity to be less than optimal in transporting excavation and embankment materials. Likewise, Vibro Rollers are needed in more than one unit so that the project can be completed faster

Therefore, community participation needs to be continuously enhanced to ensure the sustainability of cleanliness programs and the ongoing realization of a clean and healthy residential environment.

The high level of international mobility has influenced the influx of foreign nationals into Indonesia, particularly in East Nusa Tenggara Province, which has significant potential as a tourist destination and occupies a strategic position as a border region. This condition has the potential to give rise to various immigration violations, one of which is Overstay, namely the presence of foreign nationals who remain in Indonesia beyond the period permitted by their stay permits. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of the implementation of immigration supervisory functions in addressing Overstay violations at the Class I Immigration Office with Immigration Checkpoint (TPI) Kupang and to identify the factors affecting its effectiveness. This study employs an empirical juridical method with a descriptive approach. Data were collected through interviews with immigration officers, field observations, and document studies. The collected data were analyzed qualitatively by relating statutory regulations to facts found in the field. The results indicate that the implementation of immigration supervision has been carried out in accordance with the applicable immigration laws and regulations, which include: (1) administrative supervision; (2) field operational supervision through intelligence operations, independent operations, cooperation with related agencies, and community participation; and (3) the imposition of sanctions on violators. However, the implementation of immigration supervision has not been fully effective, as Overstay violations are still found within the jurisdiction of the Class I Immigration Office with Immigration Checkpoint (TPI) Kupang. Factors influencing the effectiveness of immigration supervision include legal factors, law enforcement officers, facilities and infrastructure, and community culture.

The drainage channel located on Jalan Ketintang, Gayungan District, Surabaya, East Java, is influenced by geographical conditions, vulnerable to damage due to landslides and flooding. Along with the presence of quite high rainfall during the wet months (October - January), the problem of inundation in the form of flooding always arises in the area. To minimize flooding, it is necessary to repair the channel (capacity) periodically at certain periods. In the period of August - December 2022, channel repairs were carried out by installing a fabricated rectangular channel using U/DITCH 150/150. The purpose of this thesis is to determine the value of the design flood discharge (Q) and obtain the value of the channel dimensions that can accommodate the design flood discharge at a return period of 5 years and 10 years. The analysis in this thesis is in the form of obtaining rainfall data at 3 (three) rainfall stations, namely Perak 1, Perak 2 and Juanda rainfall stations, rainfall data using 2008 – 2022 (15 years) data, calculation of planned discharge using the Log Pearson Type III method, rainfall data testing using the Smirnov Kolmogorof, rainfall intensity using the Mononobe model, and calculation of designed flood discharge using the Nakayasu Synthetic Unit Hydrograph. The results of the analysis show that the design flood discharge obtained is 17.1 m3⁄s (10-year return period) and the dimensions of the planned channel are a square channel measuring 1,325 m x 1,325 m. This is in accordance with the capacity of the 150/150 U/Ditch channel installed along 945 meters which can minimize the occurrence of inundation/flooding/overflow of channels in the area because the channel has been repaired and the capacity is enlarged

The pearl oyster (Pinctada maxima) is a high-value aquaculture commodity whose hatchery success is strongly influenced by environmental conditions, particularly temperature. This study aimed to determine the effect of different temperatures on the growth and survival rate of Pinctada maxima larvae. The research was conducted at PT Timur Otsuki Mutiara (PT. TOM), Kupang Regency, East Nusa Tenggara, using a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) consisting of three temperature treatments: A (28°C), B (29°C), and C (30°C), each with three replications. The observed parameters included survival rate, absolute growth, dorsal–ventral specific growth rate, anterior–posterior specific growth rate, and water quality. Data were analyzed using Analysis of Variance (ANOVA). The results showed that temperature had a significant effect (P<0.05) on the survival rate and specific growth rate of the larvae. The 28°C treatment produced the highest survival rate (22.44%), dorsal–ventral specific growth rate (4.97%), and anterior–posterior specific growth rate (5.13%). The highest absolute growth was also recorded at 28°C, reaching 121.67 µm; however, no significant differences were observed among treatments (P>0.05). Water quality parameters remained within the optimal range for larval rearing throughout the study. Based on the research results, it can be concluded that 28°C is the optimum temperature for supporting the growth and survival of Pinctada maxima larvae, whereas increasing the temperature up to 30°C tends to reduce larval performance.

This study aims to determine the role of women in tourism development in Raja Prailiu Village, East Sumba Regency, and to identify the obstacles faced by women in tourism activities. This research is motivated by the importance of women's involvement in meeting family economic needs while preserving the weaving culture. This study uses a qualitative descriptive method. Data were obtained through observation, interviews, and documentation. Research informants consisted of six women who are active in tourism activities in Raja Prailiu Village. Data sources used include primary data from interviews and secondary data from books, journals, articles, and related documents. Data analysis techniques used the Miles and Huberman model which includes data reduction, data presentation, as well as drawing conclusions and verification. The results of the study show that women have an important role in tourism development, namely as weavers, craft product sellers, tour guides, and actors in preserving culture and cleanliness of the tourist environment. However, women also face various obstacles, such as increasing the number of tourists, high prices of raw materials, limited time due to dual roles, lack of English language skills, and low tourist awareness of environmental cleanliness. This research contributes to showing the importance of the role of women in tourism development and becomes a consideration for the government and the community in supporting tourism development in Raja Prailiu Village.

The quality of life and well-being of women in Indonesia can be measured through the Female Life Expectancy indicator. Data on Female Life Expectancy from 2022 to 2024 shows a nationally positive trend; however, a significant disparity persists across provinces, particularly between the Western and Eastern regions of Indonesia. The nation still faces challenges in ensuring an equitable quality of life for women, as evidenced by the national Female Life Expectancy (FLE) in 2024 at 74.21 years, which remains lower than ASEAN counterparts such as Singapore at 83.86 years. Furthermore, regional imbalances are reflected in the performance gap between D.I. Yogyakarta (77.4 years) and West Sulawesi (68.28 years). This study aims to analyze the effects of Women's Income Contribution, Access to Clean Water, the Number of Families Receiving Social Assistance, and Women's Mean Years of Schooling on Female Life Expectancy in Indonesia during the 2022–2024 period. The estimation method applied in this research is the Fixed Effect Model (FEM) via a quantitative panel data regression approach, spanning an observation area of 33 provinces (n=99). Based on the analysis, Female Life Expectancy is proven to be positively and significantly influenced by Women's Mean Years of Schooling and Access to Clean Water. These findings indicate that human resource quality and environmental conditions serve as dominant factors in driving up Female Life Expectancy. Therefore, government policy interventions should ideally focus on expanding educational access for women and ensuring the equitable distribution of clean water infrastructure.

Income inequality is a structural development problem that can trigger social conflict, affect long-term economic growth, and hinder the achievement of SDGs. The purpose of this study is to analyze the factors that contribute to income inequality in East Java Province by combining demographic, social, and economic factors. The data used includes panel data from 38 districts and cities in East Java Province between 2017 and 2023 period. The analysis method used is panel data regression with a fixed effect model. To measure the effect of variables on income inequality, the testing was conducted partially and simultaneosly. The individual test results show that elderly dependency and poverty have a positive and significant relationship, while the human development index and economic growth are proportional but not significantly, and the open unemployment rate is not significant negative. Simultaneously, all variables have a significant effect on income inequality of 55.67 percent, with the remaining 44.37 percent influenced by variables outside the scope of this study.
