This study aims to examine the implementation of competency-based human resource management (HR) in improving employee professionalism at Devos Jok, an SME engaged in the automotive interior manufacturing sector. A descriptive qualitative approach is used to explore in depth the HR practices carried out, the challenges faced, and the impact on employee work quality. The results of the study indicate that the transformation of the HR system from an administrative pattern to a competency-based one has made a significant contribution to improving individual and organizational performance. The strategies implemented include competency-based recruitment, ongoing training, flexible payroll systems, and adaptation to digital platforms. However, challenges remain, especially in overcoming resistance to change and limited training resources. This study provides theoretical and practical contributions to the development of a competency-based SME HR system in the context of today's creative and digital industries.

This research aims to see the effect of the project based learning model on the ability to understand concepts in fraction material in fourth grade elementary school. This type of research is a quantitative approach and uses a quasi-experiment method. The design in this study was a nonequivalent control group design, namely using two classes, namely class IVB as the experimental class and IVA as the control class which was obtained randomly. The experimental class will be given PjBL learning model treatment and the control class will receive conventional treatment. This study gave a pre-test to both classes before giving treatment to both classes and gave a post-test to the class after receiving treatment. Based on the results of the hypothesis test data analysis that the researchers carried out, significant independent t-test results obtained for the initial and final values ??of the experimental class and control class were 0.027. Based on these results, a significant value of 0.027 <0.05 was obtained, so Ha was accepted and Ho was rejected. Thus, it can be concluded that there is an influence of the project based learning model on the ability to understand concepts in fraction material in class IV elementary school.

The Age limit requirements on job vacancies are currently being criticized by the public through social media. Age restrictions are a form of age discrimination. Companies/employers often set an age limit for workers ranging from 18-25 years old. This age requirement is considered to make it difficult for prospective workers to find work, especially for contract workers and women. This study describes the limitation of working age as a form of discrimination and the policies governing age requirements in Indonesia. The research method used in this research is normative legal research using a statute approach, comparative approach, and conceptual approach. The results of this study show that in Indonesia there are no regulations or policies that regulate and provide legal protection regarding age discrimination of workers and it is important for the government and companies to consider more inclusive policies related to age restrictions in recruitment. In addition, there needs to be an effort to provide training and employment opportunities for workers who are above the age limit so that they can still be productive.
