The implementation of agricultural productivity improvement policies is an important effort to increase agricultural production and improve farmers' welfare. Policy implementation is influenced not only by program design and resource availability but also by the interests of actors involved in the implementation process. This study aims to analyze actor interests in the implementation of agricultural productivity improvement policies in Rantau Indah Village, Tanjung Jabung Timur Regency. This research employed a qualitative descriptive approach. Data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentation involving representatives of the Food Crops and Horticulture Office, Agricultural Extension Workers, village government officials, farmer group leaders, and community leaders. The findings indicate that each actor has different interests in policy implementation, reflecting their respective institutional roles, responsibilities, and expectations. These differences influence program planning, coordination, decision-making, and policy execution. Nevertheless, effective communication, collaboration, and coordination among stakeholders contribute positively to minimizing conflicts of interest and supporting policy implementation. The active involvement of farmer groups and agricultural extension workers also strengthens the dissemination of agricultural innovations and encourages community participation in improving productivity. The study concludes that actor interests constitute an important factor influencing the implementation of agricultural productivity improvement policies in Rantau Indah Village. Therefore, strengthening stakeholder collaboration, improving institutional coordination, and ensuring transparent communication are essential to achieving sustainable agricultural development and enhancing farmers' welfare.

The Role of Leadership in the Implementation of Employee Performance Supervision at the Manpower and Transmigration Office at the Regional Manpower Supervisory Agency (UPTD) for Regional Manpower Supervisory Agency (Balai Wasnaker) 1. This study aims to determine the role of leadership in the implementation of employee performance supervision. Effective leadership is an important factor in ensuring that employees perform their duties and responsibilities in accordance with organizational goals and established regulations. The research method used was descriptive qualitative, with data collection techniques through observation, interviews, and documentation. Informants were selected based on their involvement in supervision activities and understanding of employee performance management. The results indicate that leadership plays a significant role through direction, coaching, monitoring, and evaluation of employee performance.

The results of this study indicate a significant relationship between workload and burnout at a significance level of 0.00 (≤ 0.05). There is a significant relationship between workload and nurse fatigue at Ibnu Sina Islamic Hospital Bukittinggi in 2025.

This research is grounded in the understanding that employees are the core of organizational sustainability, and their job satisfaction is shaped not only by daily tasks but also by the organization’s ability to manage workload and support balance between work demands and personal life. This study aims to analyze the effect of workload and work-life balance on employee job satisfaction at the Class I Correctional Center (Bapas) Makassar. Using a quantitative approach, data were collected through questionnaires distributed to 54 employees and analyzed using multiple linear regression assisted by SPSS Statistics 25. The research variables consist of workload and work-life balance as independent variables, and job satisfaction as the dependent variable. The findings indicate that workload has a positive and significant effect on job satisfaction, suggesting that employees’ perception of being able to complete tasks effectively can increase their comfort and confidence at work. Work-life balance also shows a positive and significant influence, indicating that the ability to manage both work responsibilities and personal life contributes directly to greater feelings of satisfaction, stability, and motivation in performing duties. Simultaneously, both variables significantly affect job satisfaction, emphasizing the importance for organizations to regulate workload proportionally while providing space for employees to maintain a healthy life balance. These findings highlight that effective workload management and support for work-life balance are crucial organizational investments to foster a healthy, productive, and employee-centered work environment.

This study aims to analyze the strategies employed by madrasah principals to enhance teacher professionalism through the implementation of managerial functions, academic supervision, entrepreneurship, and socio-spiritual leadership at MAN 1 Bandung and MAN 2 Bandung. The study employs a qualitative approach using a descriptive case study method. Data collection techniques included in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and document analysis, while data analysis was conducted using the Miles and Huberman model through the stages of data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions.

This research aims to analyze the legal protection of workers' rights during Termination of Employment (PHK) due to company bankruptcy, as well as assessing the conformity between applicable legal provisions and practice in the field. The method used is normative legal research with a statutory and factual approach. The research examines various legal regulations related to employment and bankruptcy, as well as the implementation of these regulations in resolving employment disputes. The research results show that the regulation of layoffs according to Law Number 6 of 2023 concerning Job Creation emphasizes that layoffs are the termination of the employment relationship due to certain things which result in the end of the rights and obligations between workers and employers which is a last resort. In practice, however, workers often experience difficulties in obtaining their normative rights, especially when companies face financial instability or insolvency. Then the responsibilities that can be carried out by companies to realize fair legal protection for workers are divided into 2 (two) efforts, namely preventive and repressive. Preventive efforts include compliance with labor regulations and transparent communication, while repressive efforts are carried out through dispute settlement and fulfillment of workers’ compensation rights. This research confirms the existence of a gap between legal norms and practice in the field. Therefore, it is necessary to increase legal awareness and strengthen regulatory enforcement to ensure the fulfillment of the rights of workers affected by layoffs.

The steady increase in divorce cases in Indonesia suggests that many couples begin married life without adequate emotional, financial, or intellectual readiness. In response, the government encourages premarital education as a preventive initiative designed to equip future spouses with the skills needed to manage potential domestic difficulties. Viewed through the lens of maqāṣid al-sharī‘ah, this initiative supports the essential goals of Islamic law, namely the promotion of well-being at the personal, family, community, and national levels. This study argues that premarital education reflects the core principles of Islamic legal ethics and functions as a normative expression of the sharī‘ah. Using a normative-theoretical legal framework combined with a maqāṣid al-sharī‘ah analysis, the research engages Qur’anic and Hadith texts, classical and modern fiqh discussions, uṣūl al-fiqh, Indonesian regulatory provisions on premarital counseling, and scholarly works on Islamic Family Law. The results show that major triggers of marital breakdown emotional instability, financial pressure, recurring disputes, and limited understanding of marital responsibilities can be reduced through structured premarital education. These programs strengthen spiritual awareness, emotional resilience, communication skills, conflict-resolution abilities, and economic management. Consequently, premarital education becomes a strategic mechanism for nurturing harmonious households and reinforcing the framework of Islamic Family Law in Indonesia, positioning it as a sharī‘ah oriented tool vital for contemporary social welfare.

Background: Work-life balance is an essential issue for all employees, especially nurses and healthcare organizations. Nurses face high role demands, particularly female nurses, who must juggle multiple responsibilities simultaneously, often leading to an imbalance in their personal lives. Objective: The aim of this study is to examine the relationship between social support and work-life balance among female nurses in hospitals. Results: This correlational study used a cross-sectional approach. The sample consisted of 92 female nurses selected through cluster random sampling. Data was collected using a questionnaire and analyzed using the Spearman’s Rho test. The study results indicated that the majority (70.7%) of female nurses experience low social support, and most (68.5%) also had poor work-life balance. Based on the ordinal scale analysis using the Spearman’s Rho test, the study found a p-value of 0.000 (p<0.05) and a correlation coefficient (r?) of -0.610, leading to the acceptance of H1. This confirms a significant relationship between social support and work-life balance among female nurses in hospitals. Conclusion: It can be concluded that social attention and support are crucial for female nurses in carrying out their duties. With this support, female nurses can perform better and more effectively, and balance their work and personal lives.

This reflective autoethnographic study explores the lived experience of being an only child caring for an elderly mother with Parkinson's disease while working as a full-time lecturer. The research aims to understand how this dual role affects the caregiver's mental health, work productivity, and relationship with the mother. Using a reflective autoethnographic approach based on Ellis, data were collected through three techniques: autobiographical narratives and memos, analysis of personal artifacts (work schedules, medical records, photographs), and an integrated self-interview. Thematic-reflective analysis revealed three main themes. First, structural loneliness describes the profound isolation resulting from having no sibling to share physical, emotional, and decisional responsibilities, which informal support cannot easily remedy. Second, stealth strategies at work refer to hidden tactics such as leaving early without disclosure, using breaks to check on the mother, and concealing caregiving struggles to avoid being perceived as less committed or losing professional opportunities. Third, fought for bonds shows that despite exhaustion and initial frustration, the caregiver’s relationship with her mother deepened through daily effort, patience, and reframing caregiving as meaningful devotion, a process aligned with filial maturity. The findings highlight the unique pressures faced by only-child working caregivers, including invisible productivity loss and the inadequacy of general social support. Practical implications for employers, social workers, and policymakers are discussed. This study contributes a rich first-person account to the underexplored area of only-child caregiving and offers recommendations for workplace cultural change, targeted support groups, and subsidized respite services.

ABSTRACT There must be a fair and balanced application of the legal rights and responsibilities that arise from the employment relationship between employers and employees. Employers' continued activities of withholding diplomas from workers, even after the employment relationship has ended, may have negative consequences for workers and limit their ability to find new career possibilities. The purpose of this research is to examine the employment agreement's provisions on the parties' respective roles and responsibilities in the workplace, and to determine whether or not employees have any recourse if their employers choose to retain their diplomas even after the job relationship has ended. Normative legal research using conceptual, factual, and regulatory approaches is the study technique used. Holding workers' diplomas is illegal, violates their human rights, and goes against labor laws and regulations, according to the report. Legislation protects employees both preemptively, via government oversight and normative regulation, and punitively, via processes for resolving disputes in industrial relations and the imposition of administrative, civil, and criminal penalties. Companies cannot legitimately withhold diplomas; thus, this practice must end in order to provide legal clarity and respect for workers' dignity. Keywords : Legal Protection, Workers, Diploma.

This study aims to analyze the impact of women’s dual roles and work stress on the work quality of female employees in the Production Division of PT Unggulrejo Wasono, Purworejo. The background of this research arises from the phenomenon of married female workers who must balance household responsibilities with factory production demands, a condition that often leads to stress and decreased work performance. Using a qualitative approach, data were collected through observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation, and analyzed using Miles and Huberman’s interactive model. The findings reveal that dual roles significantly influence work quality, with many female employees experiencing physical and mental fatigue that lowers concentration, accuracy, and productivity. Work stress is triggered by excessive workloads, high production targets, uncomfortable working conditions, and limited interpersonal support. There are three findings: (1) negative impacts on female employees without family support; (2) dual roles serve as a motivator when supported by spouses or parents; and (3) fluctuating effects depending on household and work conditions. The research implications affirm that PT Unggulrejo Wasono's efforts to address dual roles and work stress remain limited but somewhat helpful. Counseling programs and stress management training have had a positive impact on some female employees, although the effects are not yet widespread due to the absence of structural policies such as workload adjustments or childcare support. As a result, the work quality of employees who receive support tends to be more stable, while those without support remain vulnerable to decreased productivity and increased absenteeism. Therefore, while the existing  efforts  are beneficial,  their  effectiveness  needs  to  be improved  to  achieve broader  positive outcomes.

Employee work discipline is one of the important aspects of human resource management, especially in service companies that heavily rely on their employees' performance. PT CAI, as an event organizer company, still faces issues related to employee work discipline, such as tardiness, absenteeism without notice, and low consistency in completing work responsibilities. This activity is a form of Community Service by students aimed at increasing employees' understanding and awareness of the importance of work discipline through educational and practical approaches. The implementation methods of the activity include observation, interviews, discussions, documentation, and the implementation of an educational program in the form of work discipline posters as well as providing recommendations for a simple reward and punishment system. The results of the activity show that internal educational media serve as an effective visual reminder in increasing employee awareness of punctuality and work responsibility. This community service activity is expected to support the improvement of employee performance, service quality, and the operational sustainability of PT CAI.

This study is motivated by the increasing complexity of financing coordination between the National Health Insurance (BPJS Kesehatan) and supplementary health insurance providers under the Coordination of Benefits (KAPJ) scheme, which creates potential claim disputes and administrative risks for hospitals. Although Minister of Health Decree No. HK.01.07/MENKES/1117/2025 regulates payment allocation and membership verification mechanisms, it does not explicitly recognize pre-admission confirmation as a preventive legal protection instrument. This research aims to analyze the normative position of pre-admission confirmation within the KAPJ framework, conceptualize it as a preventive legal protection mechanism, and formulate a proportional implementation model. The study employs a normative juridical method using statutory and conceptual approaches through literature review of relevant regulations and scholarly works. The findings indicate that pre-admission confirmation possesses implicit normative legitimacy through membership verification obligations and system integration requirements, and functions as a risk allocation mechanism that clarifies payment responsibilities prior to service delivery. Its implementation enhances legal certainty, reduces fraud potential, and minimizes claim disputes, provided that access to emergency medical services remains guaranteed.

This study aims to: 1) describe the classical interpretation of QS. An-Nisa' [4]:9, particularly the concept of protecting descendants (khaufu 'ala al-dzurriyah); 2) explain the moral message of QS. An-Nisa' [4]:9 regarding parental responsibility through Abdullah Saeed's contextual hermeneutical framework; 3) demonstrate how a reinterpretation of QS. An-Nisa' [4]:9 can provide a new, more positive, and more balanced perspective on the childfree phenomenon in contemporary society. This research adopts a qualitative method grounded in library research. The data sources include classical and contemporary tafsir works, the writings of Abdullah Saeed, thematic literature on family studies, and academic references discussing the modern emergence of the childfree phenomenon. The analysis applies a contextual hermeneutical approach that emphasizes reading the Qur'anic verse through its historical setting, universal moral values, and relevance to contemporary social realities. This approach enables an integrated understanding between the fundamental message of the verse and present-day ethical challenges. The findings reveal that classical interpretations of QS. An-Nisa' [4]:9 focuses on the protection of orphans and the obligation to prevent descendants from falling into states of weakness. The moral message of the verse, viewed through Abdullah Saeed's framework, directs attention to the heavy moral responsibility of raising children, which requires comprehensive readiness. The reinterpretation of the verse highlights that the childfree choice does not inherently conflict with Islamic values, as this decision may arise from moral responsibility to avoid producing descendants who may be at risk of weakness, as warned in the verse. This perspective encourages society to view childfree choices more positively and aligns them with the Qur'anic objective of safeguarding the well-being and strength of future generations.

The development of automotive technology continuously seeks solutions to improve human mobility and address environmental concerns. This study focuses on the Hydrogen Reactor (HHO) technology as an alternative solution for fuel efficiency and emission reduction, specifically examining the legal protection of consumers utilizing this technology at Bengkel Karya Gemilang. The research aims to analyze the legal framework of consumer protection in the context of new energy-saving technologies and to identify the legal responsibilities of business actors (workshops) and the rights of consumers. Employing a normative legal research method with a case study approach, the study analyzes the implementation of Law No. 8 of 1999 concerning Consumer Protection (UUPK) in the utilization of HHO reactors. The findings indicate that while the HHO reactor technology offers a potential 5-15% increase in fuel efficiency and CO emission reduction, its implementation introduces new legal challenges, particularly regarding product safety, standardization, and the obligation for periodic servicing. Consumer protection is primarily ensured through the workshop’s obligation to provide clear product explanations, guarantee product safety, and fulfill the periodic service commitment. The study concludes that the existing UUPK provides a sufficient legal basis, but its implementation requires clear and transparent agreements, especially concerning the technical specifications and long-term maintenance of the HHO reactor, to ensure consumer rights are fully protected against potential risks associated with new, non-standardized automotive technologies.

Work engagement is a crucial factor that supports organizational effectiveness, particularly within public institutions that bear significant responsibilities in delivering public services. This study aimed to examine the relationship between Perceived Organizational Support (POS) and Work Engagement among Civil Servants (Pegawai Negeri Sipil PNS) at the Medan Center for Drug and Food Control (Balai Besar Pengawas Obat dan Makanan BBPOM). A quantitative approach with a correlational research design was employed. The study population consisted of 127 civil servants, all of whom were included as research participants using a total sampling technique. Data were collected using the Survey of Perceived Organizational Support (SPOS) and the Utrecht Work Engagement Scale (UWES). Data analysis was conducted using the Pearson Product-Moment Correlation test. The findings revealed a positive and significant relationship between Perceived Organizational Support and Work Engagement (r = 0.266; p = 0.002). These results indicate that higher levels of perceived organizational support are associated with higher levels of employee work engagement. Descriptively, the majority of respondents reported high levels of POS (66.9%) and high levels of work engagement (73.2%). The findings suggest that organizational support manifested through fairness, concern for employee well-being, supervisory support, and recognition of employee contributions plays an important role in enhancing employees’ vigor, dedication, and involvement in their work. This study provides practical implications for BBPOM Medan to continuously strengthen organizational support as a strategic effort to improve employee work engagement and optimize the performance of civil servants.
