However, the level of taxpayer compliance in Indonesia still faces various challenges, ranging from administrative complexity to limited system transparency. In response, the government, through the Directorate General of Taxes, has implemented Coretax as part of a technology-based tax reform initiative. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of Coretax implementation in enhancing taxpayer compliance and optimizing state revenue. The research employs a literature review and descriptive analysis using secondary data from official reports, academic publications, and tax policy documents. The findings indicate that Coretax simplifies tax administration processes, strengthens data-driven monitoring, and increases transparency and accountability. Its implementation has contributed positively to improving taxpayer compliance and enhancing revenue efficiency, although challenges remain, particularly related to technological infrastructure readiness, taxpayers’ digital literacy, and the need for capacity building among tax officials. This study underscores the importance of sustaining Coretax development, not only through technological investment but also through strengthened taxpayer education, so that it can serve as a strategic instrument to reinforce Indonesia’s taxation system.</p> Iffah Qonitah Copyright (c) 2026 Author http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/1911 Sat, 27 Dec 2025 00:00:00 +0000 ANALISIS PENENTUAN BIAYA PRODUKSI BERDASARKAN SISTEM BIAYA BERBASIS AKTIVITAS (ABC) PADA USAHA KERIPIK KELADI BINTANG TIMUR https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/1912 <p>Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) play a crucial role in strengthening Indonesia’s economic foundation, particularly in West Papua, which is experiencing rapid regional growth. One of the local food-based MSMEs contributing to this development is Keripik Keladi Bintang Timur Enterprise located in Manokwari Regency. However, the business faces challenges in accurately determining production costs because it still applies a traditional volume-based costing method that does not reflect the real consumption of production activities. This study aims to analyze the determination of production costs using the Activity-Based Costing (ABC) system to produce more accurate and reliable cost information. A quantitative descriptive approach was applied using primary data obtained through interviews, observation, and documentation from January to June 2025. The main production activities identified include raw material preparation, frying, packaging, and distribution, each with distinct cost drivers. The analysis revealed that the total monthly production cost amounted to Rp7,250,000, with a unit cost of Rp36,250 under the traditional method and Rp34,750 under the ABC method. The difference of Rp1,500 per unit indicates that the ABC method provides more precise cost allocation based on actual resource consumption. The study also found that raw material preparation and frying activities account for more than 60% of the total cost, suggesting that efficiency improvements should focus on these stages. Overall, the ABC method proves to be a relevant and adaptive approach for MSMEs, enhancing cost transparency and supporting rational pricing decisions for local food-based enterprises.</p> Dinar Kurniawati, Yohanes Damaskus Resi, Manuel Lambi Copyright (c) 2026 Author http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/1912 Sat, 27 Dec 2025 00:00:00 +0000 EVALUASI TINGKAT KESIAPSIAGAAN DAN RESPONS TIM KERJA DALAM OPERASI SAR PADA KANTOR PENCARIAN DAN PERTOLONGAN MANOKWARI https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/1913 <p>This study aims to evaluate the level of preparedness and team response during search and rescue (SAR) operations at the Manokwari Search and Rescue Office. Delays in response time and varying levels of competence among team members prompted the need for an in-depth assessment of human resource readiness and operational systems in the field. A descriptive qualitative approach was employed to explore personnel preparedness, coordination effectiveness, and logistical support. Data were collected through direct observation, in-depth interviews, and document analysis involving eight informants comprising field personnel, support staff, and operational leaders. Data were analyzed using reduction, categorization, and thematic interpretation techniques based on the Miles and Huberman model. The findings reveal that personnel preparedness is at a relatively good level, supported by adequate understanding of standard operating procedures, although technical training remains inconsistent. Equipment and logistics are generally available, yet distribution to remote areas continues to hinder operational speed. Cross-sector communication and coordination remain suboptimal due to signal interference and lack of standardized collaboration mechanisms. The average response time of 35 minutes slightly exceeds the national standard; however, operational effectiveness remains high with an 83% success rate in rescue operations. Strengthening preparedness requires integrated training, equipment renewal, and modernization of communication systems through adaptive technology.</p> Faraj Reza Habsyi, Yohanes Damaskus Resi, Desi Suharnani Suharsono Copyright (c) 2026 Author http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/1913 Sat, 27 Dec 2025 00:00:00 +0000 EVALUASI TINGKAT KEPUASAN BENDAHARA TERHADAP PELAYANAN KEUANGAN DAERAH: STUDI PADA BPKAD KABUPATEN PEGUNUNGAN ARFAK https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/1914 <p>This study aims to evaluate the satisfaction level of treasurers with the services provided by the Regional Financial and Asset Management Agency (BPKAD) of Pegunungan Arfak Regency as an indicator of public service performance in regional financial management. High-quality public service reflects the success of bureaucratic reform and the professionalism of civil servants in implementing transparent, accountable, and user-oriented financial governance. This research employs a descriptive qualitative approach with a population of 92 treasurers and a sample of 48 respondents, determined using the Slovin formula with a 10 percent margin of error. Data were collected using the Community Satisfaction Survey (SKM) instrument in accordance with Ministerial Regulation of PANRB Number 14 of 2017, which assesses nine key aspects of public service quality. The findings reveal a Community Satisfaction Index (IKM) score of 79.9, categorized as good, with the highest ratings on the aspects of staff behavior and competence, while complaint handling received the lowest score. These results indicate that BPKAD’s service delivery is generally effective yet still requires improvement in communication mechanisms and responsiveness to user feedback. The study highlights the importance of strengthening human resource capacity, promoting digital-based service innovations, and developing an integrated online complaint system as strategic efforts to enhance public service quality within the local government of Pegunungan Arfak Regency.</p> Margaretha Towansiba, Febianus Heatubun, Lucia Klamensia Rahaded Copyright (c) 2026 Author http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/1914 Sat, 27 Dec 2025 00:00:00 +0000 PERANAN MOTIVASI KERJA GUNA MENINGKATKAN PRODUKTIVITAS PEGAWAI PADA SATUAN POLISI PAMONG PRAJA (SATPOL PP) KABUPATEN MANOKWARI https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/1915 <p>Work motivation plays a strategic role in shaping employee productivity, particularly in government agencies tasked with enforcing regional regulations such as the Civil Service Police Unit (Satpol PP). This study aims to analyze the influence of work motivation on the productivity of Satpol PP employees in Manokwari Regency. A descriptive quantitative approach was employed by distributing questionnaires to 40 respondents, including both structural officials and operational staff. Data were analyzed using validity, reliability, frequency distribution, and simple linear regression tests. The results reveal a positive and significant effect of work motivation on employee productivity, with a determination coefficient of 55.1%. Self-actualization and responsibility emerged as the most influential factors, while self-esteem remained an area for improvement. Overall, employees demonstrated high motivation and strong commitment to their duties, though continuous supervision and recognition systems are needed to sustain motivation levels. These findings underscore the importance of motivation-based human resource management policies to enhance the performance and productivity of public service officers in regional governance.</p> Kusnul Hamidah, Budiman, Nikolina Balia Copyright (c) 2026 Author http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/1915 Sat, 27 Dec 2025 00:00:00 +0000 PERAN WORK-LIFE BALANCE MEMEDIASI PENGARUH FLEXIBLE WORKING TERHADAP JOB SATISFACTION PADA PEKERJA INDUSTRI MEDIA DIGITAL https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/1833 <p>The fast evolution of technology has driven changes in work patterns, particularly for workers in content-based positions, who must be able to meet content upload targets while remaining creative. The purpose of this research aims to examine the influence of flexible working on job satisfaction, mediated by work-life balance, particularly in the digital media industry. The method used is an quantitative approach through the distribution of questionnaires with purposive sampling of 100 workers in digital media companies in content-based positions, particularly Millennials and Generation Z, using non-probability sampling techniques. The data was analyzed using Partial Least Square-Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) assisted by SmartPLS 3.0 software. This research proves that there is a positive impact between flexible working and job satisfaction, flexible working and work-life balance, work-life balance and job satisfaction, and work-life balance acts as a mediator between flexible working and job satisfaction. This study concludes that the implementation of flexible working can increase job satisfaction directly or indirectly through the achievement of work-life balance.</p> Fuji Alda Suryani, Rohimat Nurhasan, Deri Alan Kurniawan Copyright (c) 2026 Author http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/1833 Sat, 03 Jan 2026 00:00:00 +0000 PENGARUH GREEN MARKETING DAN ENVIRONMENTAL AWARENESS TERHADAP BRAND LOYALTY KONSUMEN SHOPPING GOODS DUA MEREK KOSMETIK TERKENAL YANG DIMEDIASI OLEH BRAND IMAGE DI SOLO RAYA https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/1928 <p>The present research investigates how green marketing practices and environmental awareness shape consumer brand loyalty toward N’PURE and Mineral Botanica cosmetic products in the Solo Raya region. Employing an explanatory design within a quantitative framework, the study collected primary data through online questionnaires administered to 280 users of both brands.

The analytical procedure comprised two stages: evaluation of the outer model to assess the validity and reliability of the measurement indicators, followed by evaluation of the inner model to determine the structural relationships among the variables. The findings reveal that both green marketing and environmental awareness exert positive and significant influences on brand image and, subsequently, on brand loyalty. Furthermore, brand image functions as a mediating variable in the relationship between green marketing, environmental awareness, and loyalty. These results offer meaningful insights into how environmentally oriented marketing strategies and heightened ecological awareness can reinforce cosmetic brand loyalty through the strengthening of brand image.</p> Shafiyah Salsabila, Moechammad Nasir Copyright (c) 2026 Author http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/1928 Sat, 03 Jan 2026 00:00:00 +0000 PENGARUH KEPEMIMPINAN ETIS DAN KOMPENSASI TERHADAP KINERJA KARYAWAN DENGAN MOTIVASI SEBAGAI VARIABEL MEDIASI PADA BALAI BESAR WILAYAH SUNGAI BENGAWAN SOLO https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/1945 <p>This research is designed to examine the effects of ethical leadership and compensation on employee performance, with work motivation functioning as a mediating construct at the Bengawan Solo River Basin Center. Employing a quantitative methodology, the study targeted all employees as the population, while the sample size determined using the Lemeshow formulaadapun dyielded a minimum requirement of 97 participants. Primary data in this study were collected using a Likert-scale questionnaire that measured ethical leadership, compensation, motivation, and employee performance. In contrast, the secondary data were obtained from organizational documents and internal administrative records. The analysis was conducted using Partial Least Squares–Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) with the support of the SmartPLS application. The results revealed that both ethical leadership and compensation have a positive and statistically significant impact on employee performance. These two variables were also shown to significantly improve employees’ work motivation. Furthermore, work motivation itself was positively and significantly associated with employee performance. The analysis also confirmed that motivation serves as a partial mediator in the link between ethical leadership and employee performance, as well as between compensation and employee performance. Overall, the findings suggest that improving employee performance can be effectively achieved by promoting ethical leadership, ensuring adequate compensation, and fostering higher levels of work motivation.</p> Deandra Nurul Izza Alfia Salsabilla, Ahmad Mardalis Copyright (c) 2026 Author http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/1945 Sat, 03 Jan 2026 00:00:00 +0000 PENGARUH PENDIDIKAN KEWIRAUSAHAAN, KECERDASAN ADVERSITAS, DAN DUKUNGAN SOSIAL TERHADAP INTENSI BERWIRAUSAHA PADA MAHASISWA KEWIRAUSAHAAN UNIVERSITAS MUHAMMADIYAH GRESIK https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/1946 <p>The purpose of this study is to analyze the effect of entrepreneurship education, adversity intelligence, and social support on the entrepreneurial intentions of students in the Entrepreneurship Study Program at Muhammadiyah University Gresik. This study uses a quantitative approach with a survey method and total sampling technique. However, out of the 76 questionnaires distributed to the entire population, only 68 were returned and could be processed because they contained complete answers. Data collection was conducted using a Likert scale questionnaire from 1 to 5, and data analysis was performed using structural equation modeling (SEM) based on the partial least squares (PLS) method using SmartPLS 4. The results of the study indicate that entrepreneurship education has a positive and significant effect on entrepreneurial intention, which means that the better the learning experiences and entrepreneurial practices students obtain, the higher their intention to start their own business. However, intelligence in unfavorable conditions does not have a significant effect on entrepreneurial intention, which shows that students' ability to overcome difficulties is not a major factor in determining their entrepreneurial intention. On the other hand, it has been proven that social support has a positive and significant influence on entrepreneurial intention, mainly because most students receive support from family members who have entrepreneurial experience. Thus, this study emphasizes the importance of entrepreneurial education and social support as key external factors that shape students' entrepreneurial intention. The practical implication of this research is that Universities need to strengthen their applied entrepreneurship programs, provide business mentoring programs, and create a campus ecosystem that supports student business development.</p> Calya Berliana Dewi Erlinda, Putra Panji Respati Copyright (c) 2026 Author http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/1946 Sat, 03 Jan 2026 00:00:00 +0000 PENGARUH LATAR BELAKANG KELUARGA TERHADAP SUKSESI BISNIS DENGAN KOMUNIKASI KELUARGA SEBAGAI VARIABEL MEDIASI PADA MAHASISWA KEWIRAUSAHAAN UNIVERSITAS MUHAMMADIYAH GRESIK https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/1947 <p>Family businesses contribute significantly to the national economy, especially in the micro, small, and medium enterprise (MSME) sector. The sustainability of family businesses is largely determined by the succession process, namely the transfer of leadership from the founding generation to the next generation. This study was conducted to examine the influence of family background on succession in family businesses by considering family communication as a mediating variable among students majoring in Entrepreneurship at Universitas Muhammadiyah Gresik. The novelty of this study lies in the analysis of the role of family communication that mediates the relationship between family background and business succession in the context of the younger generation, especially students as potential successors to family businesses. This study was conducted using a quantitative method through a questionnaires. The research group consisted of students who came from business owning families, with a sample size of 66 respondents. Data collection was carried out through a questionnaire based on indicators of family background, family communication, and business succession, which was then analyzed using the Partial Least Squares (PLS) program. The results of the study prove that family background had a significantly influences family communication (T-statistic = 3,065) and business succession (T-statistic = 14,754). In addition, family communication also has a significant effect on business succession (T-statistic = 2,275), thus acting as an intermediary that strengthens the relationship between family background and readiness to face the succession process.</p> Aisyah Laili Habibah Firdausi, Putra Panji Respati Copyright (c) 2026 Author http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/1947 Sat, 03 Jan 2026 00:00:00 +0000 PENGARUH PRODUCT ATRIBUTES DAN CUSTOMER VALUE TERHADAP MINAT BELI KONSUMEN DENGAN PERSEPSI NILAI SEBAGAI VARIABEL MEDIASI PADA PRODUK JADAH DI SELO, BOYOLALI https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/1980 <p>This research aims to analyze the effect of product attributes and customer value on consumers’ purchase intention with perceived value as a mediating variable for jadah products in Selo, Boyolali.

The study adopts a quantitative research design and applies a survey technique by administering structured questionnaires to 150 participants who were chosen based on purposive sampling criteria. The collected data were analyzed using multiple linear regression analysis, classical assumption tests, and instrument testing. Hypothesis testing was conducted using F-tests and t-tests with a significance level of 0.05, supported by the coefficient of determination (R²). The results indicate that career development has a negative but insignificant effect on turnover intention, suggesting that this factor is not a primary consideration for Generation Z employees in deciding whether to remain with or leave the company. In contrast, salary satisfaction has a significant and negative effect on turnover intention, indicating that higher salary satisfaction reduces employees’ intention to leave. In addition, workload has a significant effect on turnover intention, where a higher workload tends to increase employees’ intention to leave the organization. Overall, salary satisfaction and workload are more dominant factors influencing turnover intention among Generation Z employees than career development.</p> Windy Annisa Putri, Jati Waskito Copyright (c) 2026 Author http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/1981 Sat, 03 Jan 2026 00:00:00 +0000 LITERASI KEUANGAN DAN PERILAKU KEUANGAN TERHADAP KESEJAHTERAAN KEUANGAN MAHASISWA https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/1835 <p>This study aims to analyze the influence of financial literacy and financial behavior on the financial well-being of university students in Indonesia. The research adopts an explanatory quantitative approach with a sample of 150 undergraduate students selected using a purposive sampling technique. Data were collected through a Likert-scale questionnaire and analyzed using multiple linear regression with the assistance of SPSS version 26. The results show that financial literacy has a significant positive effect on students’ financial well-being (β = 0.452; p &lt; 0.01), and financial behavior also has a significant positive effect (β = 0.375; p &lt; 0.01). Together, both variables explain 62.3% of the variation in financial well-being (F = 122.317; p &lt; 0.01). These findings indicate that financial literacy alone, without healthy financial behavior, is insufficient to improve financial well-being, and vice versa. Therefore, this study recommends the importance of financial education programs that not only focus on enhancing knowledge but also on fostering more disciplined financial behavior among students.</p> Andi Harmoko Arifin Copyright (c) 2026 Author http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/1835 Tue, 06 Jan 2026 00:00:00 +0000 ANALISIS KINERJA KARYAWAN DITINJAU DARI PELATIHAN, MOTIVASI KERJA, DAN KEPUASAN KERJA DI PT ASTRA INTERNASIONAL TBK AUTO 2000 WARU https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/1857 <p>This study aims to examine how job training, work motivation, and job satisfaction contribute to employee performance at PT Astra Internasional TBK Auto 2000 Waru.

The independent variable in this study is funding policy proxied by Debt to Equity Ratio (DER), while financial performance as a mediating variable is proxied by Return on Equity (ROE), and firm value as a dependent variable is proxied by Price to Book Value (PBV). The research sample was obtained through a purposive sampling method and included 26 companies that met the criteria with a total of 130 observations over five years. The results of the study indicate that (1) funding policy has a negative effect on financial performance, (2) funding policy has a negative effect on firm value, (3) financial performance has a positive effect on firm value, and (4) financial performance is proven to mediate the effect of funding policy on firm value. These findings confirm that a disproportionate funding structure can depress profitability, thereby lowering the perceived value of a company in the market. While improved financial performance can strengthen the value of companies in the consumer goods industry sector on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX).

A quantitative approach with a correlational survey method was applied, involving 100 respondents selected through convenience sampling. Data were collected using a Likert-scale questionnaire measuring four independent variables, namely Context, Communication, Collaboration, and Connection, toward Purchase Intention as the dependent variable. The data were analyzed using multiple linear regression. The results show that all four variables simultaneously have a significant effect on purchase intention. Partially, Communication, Collaboration, and Connection have significant influence, while Context shows no significant effect. Communication contributes through clear information and fast responses. Collaboration is the most dominant variable supported by consumer testimonials and reviews. Connection strengthens emotional closeness and digital loyalty, whereas Context does not strongly encourage purchasing decisions. These findings indicate that interaction, social proof, and emotional connection on Instagram play a stronger role in shaping purchase intention than visual content alone.</p> Adrian Prayogi, Juwarin Pancawati, Johan Setiawan Copyright (c) 2026 Author http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/1909 Tue, 06 Jan 2026 00:00:00 +0000 PENGARUH DISIPLIN KERJA DAN KOMPENSASI TERHADAP KINERJA GURU DENGAN MOTIVASI SEBAGAI VARIABEL INTERVENING (STUDI PADA SD ISLAM AL AZHAR 35 SURABAYA) https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/1922 <p>This study aims to analyze the impact of work discipline and motivation as an intervening variable on the performance of teachers at the Islamic Grundschule Al Azhar 35 in Surabaya.

The research approach was quantitative. Data were obtained by distributing questionnaires to 190 respondents aged 17–28 years who resided in Batam and were interested in purchasing an electric car. The collected data were analyzed using Partial Least Squares (PLS)-based Structural Equation Modeling. The results showed that perceived benefits did not significantly influence attitudes, indicating that the cost efficiency and functional benefits of electric cars have not yet been able to shape positive attitudes among Gen Z. Conversely, perceived risks and social influences did not significantly influence attitudes. This illustrates that perceptions and social risk incentives play a significant role in shaping the attitudes of young consumers. Furthermore, attitudes were shown to have a significant positive effect on electric car purchase intentions, indicating that positive attitudes are one of the driving factors driving electric car purchase interest among Gen Z Batam. These findings provide theoretical contributions to understanding electric vehicle adoption behavior among the younger generation and practical contributions to automotive companies in designing more effective marketing strategies for the Gen Z market.</p> Nicky Jefferson Ang, Renza Fahlevi, Rizni Aulia Qadri Copyright (c) 2026 Author http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/1929 Thu, 08 Jan 2026 00:00:00 +0000 INOVASI PENGEMBANGAN ENTERPRISE RESOURCE PLANNING (ERP) DALAM MENINGKATKAN KINERJA PERUSAHAAN OTOMOTIF https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/1935 <p class="Style4">This study aims to analyze the implementation of Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems in improving the performance of an automotive company in Indonesia.

A quantitative approach was applied using both descriptive and verification designs. A total of 100 individuals who had previously purchased the product were selected through quota and purposive sampling. Data were gathered using an online questionnaire. The collected responses were processed using multiple linear regression with assistance from SPSS. The results indicate that product quality has a meaningful positive influence on consumers’ intention to purchase. Brand image also shows a positive and statistically significant effect. In contrast, social media marketing does not appear to contribute notably to consumers’ buying decisions. These findings suggest that consumers are more strongly guided by their personal experience with the product and their perception of the brand’s credibility rather than by promotional activities on social platforms.

Using Self-Efficacy as a mediating variable, this study aims to analyze the influence of Digital Leadership Capability and Innovation Capability on the value or level of employee Employability in the service subsector in the City of Semarang. The analysis is based on the Resource-Based View (RBV) theory, which emphasizes the importance of internal resources in building long-term competitive advantage. The study population consists of all employees in the service sector in Semarang, with 150 employees selected as samples using purposive sampling based on specific criteria. A quantitative approach is employed using PLS-SEM through the SmartPLS 3.2.9 software. The research findings reveal that Digital Leadership Capability and Innovation Capability have positive and significant effects on both Self-Efficacy and Employability. Additionally, Self-Efficacy is proven to play a significant mediating role in the relationship between the two independent variables and employee work capability. These conclusions demonstrate that digital leadership capability, innovation capability, and self-efficacy are strategic intangible resources that play an essential role in building the competitive advantage of both employees and companies in an increasingly digital business environment.</p> Yulinda Siti Wardani, Kusni Ingsih, Artha Febriana, Nanda Adhi Purusa Copyright (c) 2026 Author http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/1982 Wed, 14 Jan 2026 00:00:00 +0000 PENGARUH PREFERENSI KERJA DAN PERENCANAAN KARIR TERHADAP KESIAPAN KERJA MAHASISWA ERA DIGITAL DENGAN KESEMPATAN PENGEMABANGAN KARIR https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/1985 <p>This study aims to analyze the influence of work preferences and career planning on students' work readiness in the digital era 4.0, with career development as a mediating variable. Using a quantitative approach, data were collected through questionnaires from 161 respondents from Muhammadiyah University of Surakarta students. Data analysis was conducted using the Partial Least Square-Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) method with the help of SmartPLS 4 software. This study focuses on management students facing the digital curriculum-industry gap. The results of the study indicate that job preferences do not directly influence job readiness, but significantly influence career development. Conversely, career planning has a positive and significant influence on both job readiness and career development directly. Key findings demonstrate that career development functions as a partial mediator in bridging the influence of job preferences and career planning on job readiness. This study's theoretical contribution enriches the mediation model of career development on the job readiness of Indonesian Generation Z. Practical implications recommend the integration of digital-based career development programs in higher education to address the demands of a dynamic workplace. This study fills the gap in the synthesis of previously disparate career mediation theories on Indonesian Generation Z. Practical implications recommend digital career workshops and virtual internships in higher education.</p> Gias Gemilang Sari, Nur Achmad Copyright (c) 2026 Author http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/1985 Wed, 14 Jan 2026 00:00:00 +0000 AKSELERASI DIGITALISASI TATA KELOLA KEUANGAN DAN PERSEDIAAN, FORMALISASI LEGALITAS, DAN STRATEGI PENGEMBANGAN AKSES PASAR PADA UMKM WAROENG MAMA FIRMAN DI KABUPATEN BOGOR https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/1989 <p>This study aims to analyze and implement strategic assistance for Waroeng Mama Firman MSME in Bantarjati, Bogor Regency. The main focus includes financial management transformation, business legality compliance, and market access development. The primary issues identified are manual recording systems, the absence of a business identity (NIB), and limited distribution reach. The research method is qualitative with an Action Research approach. Data were analyzed using SWOT and TOWS matrices to formulate strategic solutions. The results show that the implementation of the BukuWarung digital bookkeeping application significantly increased the accuracy of financial reports.

This study analyzes the reaction of the Indonesian capital market to the announcement of the policy on blocking inactive (dormant) bank accounts issued by the Indonesian Financial Transaction Reports and Analysis Center (PPATK) on July 28, 2025. Using an event study approach, the research examines whether abnormal returns occurred in banking stocks in response to the announcement. The sample consists of 44 banking stocks listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange. Abnormal returns were calculated using the Market-Adjusted Model with two market proxies: the IHSG as a general market index and IDXFinance as a sectoral financial index. The results indicate significant market reactions both before and after the announcement date. These findings confirm that Indonesia’s financial market is sensitive to regulatory information that directly affects the banking industry, while also revealing differences in reaction patterns between the general market and the financial sector. This study provides important implications for regulators, market participants, and banking management regarding the role of information transparency and strengthened governance in maintaining market stability.</p> Ghea Revina Wigantini, Muhammad Ikhsan Fadilah Copyright (c) 2026 Author http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/1992 Wed, 14 Jan 2026 00:00:00 +0000 EVALUASI KEBERHASILAN SISTEM TERINTEGRASI SIPD – SIMPAD DALAM PENGEMBALIAN BELANJA DAERAH https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/1995 <p>This study was motivated by the fact that the expenditure reimbursement process is still carried out manually and through two separate systems, namely SIPD and SIMPAD, which require repeated data input and result in a slow validation process. This study aims to analyze the success of SIPD-SIMPAD integration based on user perceptions of efficiency and accountability using the DeLone &amp; McLean Model. It uses a qualitative method with a case study approach through interviews and observations of system users in the DKI Jakarta Provincial Government environment. The results show that system integration has a positive impact on efficiency, data accuracy, transparency, and accountability. The system is considered easy to use, fast, and stable, with technical support that helps users adapt. The success of this integration reflects how technology, organizational support, and human resource readiness complement each other and form a new, more efficient and adaptive work pattern in the government environment.</p> Febby Reysa Dian Pratiwi, Ahmad Zaini Miftah Copyright (c) 2026 Author http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/1995 Wed, 14 Jan 2026 00:00:00 +0000 PENGARUH INFORMASI NILAI GIZI DAN KEMASAN TERHADAP PEMBELIAN TELUR OMEGA-3 https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/1996 <p>Indonesia faces a double burden of malnutrition, where stunting and obesity are major health issues. Omega-3 eggs emerge as a functional food solution rich in nutrients to support child development. This study aims to analyze the effect of Nutritional Information, Packaging Safety, and Consumer Lifestyle on Purchasing Decisions of omega-3 eggs among housewives in Jakarta. This quantitative study used a survey method with purposive sampling technique involving 208 housewife respondents residing in DKI Jakarta. Data were analyzed using Partial Least Squares (PLS) based Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) with SmartPLS software. The results showed that Nutritional Information (X1) and Consumer Lifestyle (X3) had a positive and significant effect on Purchasing Decisions (Y), with Lifestyle being the dominant factor. However, Packaging Safety (X2) did not have a significant effect on purchasing decisions. These findings indicate that consumers prioritize health benefits and product functional value over mere physical packaging aspects. Producers are advised to focus on nutritional education and target the health-conscious consumer segment.</p> Arsyad Syahendri, Mochammad Farrel Adinugroho, Mona Salsa Oktavinia, Razief Akbar Syah Jenie, Parhimpunan Simatupang Copyright (c) 2026 Author http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/1996 Tue, 20 Jan 2026 00:00:00 +0000 PERSEPSI KONSUMEN TERHADAP INTEGRATED CULINARY EXPERIENCE: ANALISIS PREFERENSI, MOTIVASI, DAN PERILAKU DI SEKTOR FOOD & BEVERAGE https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/1999 <p>This study aims to examine a conceptual model explaining consumer perceptions of Integrated Culinary Experience (ICE) by analyzing the effects of motivational drivers, perceived premium attributes, and experiential value. The main research problem lies in the absence of an integrated model that explains how consumption motivation, premium attributes, and experiential value interact in shaping ICE perceptions within the premium ready-to-eat food sector. This research employs a quantitative explanatory approach. Data were collected through a survey using a Likert-scale questionnaire administered to 169 respondents in the Greater Jakarta area (Jabodetabek). Data analysis was conducted using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) with SmartPLS software. Hypothesis testing was based on path coefficients, t-statistics, and p-values obtained from bootstrapping procedures. The results indicate that consumer motivation has a positive and significant effect on ICE perception. Perceived premium attributes do not show a significant direct effect, while experiential value emerges as the strongest and most dominant factor influencing ICE perception. The findings suggest that urban consumers prioritize meaningful and immersive experiences, positioning premium attributes as hygiene factors. Practical implications highlight the importance of storytelling, presentation rituals, multisensory elements, and emotional and social experiences in premium F&amp;B practices.</p> Dita Damayanti, Freddy Tjahyadi, Rara Inten Sumawinata, Ruswan Syarif T.

Specifically, it investigates the effects of green attitude, perceived behavioral control, and subjective norms using the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB). Methodology The study employed a quantitative approach using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM). Data were collected from 126 Gen Z respondents with prior experience in using green skincare products. Measurement model evaluation included reliability and validity testing, followed by hypothesis testing using bootstrapping. Finding The results show that green attitude significantly influences green purchase intention, whereas perceived behavioral control and subjective norms do not have a significant impact. This suggests that internal values are more influential than social or situational factors in shaping green purchasing behavior. Conclusion The findings highlight the dominance of attitudinal factors over normative and control-related elements in predicting sustainable skincare consumption among Indonesian Gen Z. Strengthening positive environmental attitudes may be more effective than relying on peer pressure or perceived ability to act.</p> Ahmad Bagir, Pandu Pradito, Listya Dewi, Untung, Parhimpunan Simatupang Copyright (c) 2026 Author http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2001 Tue, 20 Jan 2026 00:00:00 +0000 PARADIGMA BARU MICROFINANCE: PERGESERAN DARI SUBSIDI KE KOMERSIALISASI https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2002 <p>This study discusses the paradigm shift in microfinance from a subsidy-based poverty lending approach toward a sustainable and commercial financial systems approach. Using literature review methods based on Marguerite S. Robinson (2001) and related works such as Yunus (1999), Morduch (1999), and Yaron dkk. (1998), this paper explores the drivers behind this transformation. The case of Bank Rakyat Indonesia’s (BRI) Unit Desa demonstrates the success of a commercially viable microfinance model in reaching the poor sustainably without reliance on government subsidies. The findings highlight that professionally managed, market-oriented microfinance can enhance financial inclusion, empower local economies, and strengthen the resilience of low-income communities. Thus, commercialization of microfinance does not diminish its social mission but rather expands its impact through institutional sustainability and financial innovation</p> Rheza Aditya Fajar Firmansyah, Dien Mardiyah Copyright (c) 2026 Author http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2002 Tue, 20 Jan 2026 00:00:00 +0000 ANALISIS FAKTOR PENDORONG MINAT BELI PRODUK MATCHA DI PASAR URBAN https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2004 <p>This study aims to examine the factors influencing consumers’ purchase intention toward matcha beverages in Indonesia’s urban market using the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) framework. The variables analyzed include Perceived Quality, Perceived Value, Social Influence, and Service Convenience, with Attitude, Subjective Norms, and Perceived Behavioral Control acting as mediating constructs. A quantitative survey method was employed, collecting data from 208 Generation Z and Millennial respondents in the Greater Jakarta area. The data were analyzed using Partial Least Squares–Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) with SmartPLS 4 software. The results indicate that Perceived Quality and Perceived Value have a positive and significant effect on Attitude, while Social Influence significantly affects Subjective Norms. Service Convenience was found to positively influence Perceived Behavioral Control. Furthermore, Attitude and Subjective Norms significantly affect purchase intention, whereas Perceived Behavioral Control does not show a significant effect. The model demonstrates a moderate explanatory power for purchase intention. These findings suggest that consumers’ intention to purchase matcha beverages is primarily driven by attitudinal evaluation and social legitimacy rather than perceived behavioral control.</p> Altius Orlandy, Fico Devara Rozan, Marcellino Tantyo Wiryawan, Marcia Noel, Parhimpunan Simatupang Copyright (c) 2026 Author http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2004 Tue, 20 Jan 2026 00:00:00 +0000 KUALITAS MEDIS, LAYANAN DAN HARGA: PENENTU LOYALITAS WISATAWAN MEDIS INDONESIA KE MALAYSIA https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2006 <p class="Style4">This study aims to analyze the influence of medical quality, service quality, and price fairness on satisfaction and their impact on loyalty of Indonesian patients undergoing medical tourism in Malaysia. This study used a quantitative approach with a survey method, where data were collected through structured questionnaires from 200 respondents who had received medical services at several leading hospitals in Malaysia. The data analysis technique was carried out using Structural Equation Modeling based on Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS) to test the relationship between the study variables. The results showed that medical quality and service quality had a positive and significant effect on patient satisfaction, confirming the importance of diagnostic accuracy, treatment effectiveness, and the professionalism of medical and non-medical personnel in shaping the experience of cross-border medical tourism. In contrast, price fairness did not have a significant effect on satisfaction, indicating that Indonesian patients prioritize clinical outcomes and service quality over price considerations. Furthermore, patient satisfaction was shown to have a very strong and significant influence on loyalty, which was reflected in the intention to return and authorize medical services in Malaysia. These findings provide theoretical and practical support for the development of medical tourism policies, particularly in efforts to strengthen the competitiveness of domestic healthcare services in Indonesia.</p> Wirandry Baja Cahaya, Renza Fahlevi, Fitriana Aidnilla Sinambela Copyright (c) 2026 Author http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2006 Tue, 20 Jan 2026 00:00:00 +0000 PENGARUH HARGA, CITRA MEREK, DAN KEPERCAYAAN KONSUMEN TERHADAP LOYALITAS PELANGGAN KOPI KENANGAN https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2008 <p>The research aims to reveal and analyze influence of price perceptioan, brand image and trust on customer loyalty to memorable coffee products.

This study aims to analyze the determinants of drinking water consumption behaviour among private university students in South Tangerang, focusing on knowledge, convenience, risk perception, social norms, and behavioral control. Employing a quantitative explanatory approach, data were collected from 183 students via online questionnaires and analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) based on Partial Least Squares (PLS) using SmartPLS software. The results indicate that Environmental Knowledge has a significant negative effect, while Convenience has a significant positive effect and serves as the dominant factor. Risk Perception regarding alternative water sources also contributes to high bottled water consumption. However, Social Norms did not show a significant effect, whereas Infrastructure demonstrated a significant negative effect on consumption behaviour. It is concluded that high plastic consumption is driven by low-risk literacy and a high demand for practicality. Campus interventions must focus on massive health education and providing Water Refill Stations that compete with the convenience of bottled water.</p> Andrian, Gasza Ariatedya Bawono, Nugraha Labib Mujaddid, Muhammad Akbar Rafsanjhani, Parhimpunan Simatupang Copyright (c) 2026 Author http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2009 Tue, 20 Jan 2026 00:00:00 +0000 KESEDIAAN MEMBAYAR WORKSHOP KELAS SENI DI KOMUNITAS PERKOTAAN BESAR DI INDONESIA https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2011 <p>The increasing popularity of creative and experiential activities within Indonesia's urban centers has generated a marked public interest in art education. Nevertheless, there is an absence of empirical data regarding the determinants of consumers' willingness to pay for these services. This research employs a mixed-methods approach, commencing with a qualitative phase. This phase seeks to examine consumer motivations, their perception of value, and their expectations regarding the pricing of art classes. The creation of quantitative instruments for the subsequent validation phase is informed by data from interviews and open-ended survey responses. This study investigates three primary factors influencing willingness to pay (WTP): individual characteristics (including previous workshop attendance, employment status, monthly income, and age), perceptions related to the workshop (specifically, duration, instructor quality, and provider reputation), and price-value evaluations (comprising perceived value relative to cost and additional benefits). The quantitative phase assesses the robustness and significance of these connections. It emphasizes consumers' highest willingness to pay, their perceptions of the fairness of base prices, and their readiness to pay for additional benefits. This study provides a comprehensive analysis of customer behavior in the art workshop industry through the integration of qualitative insights and quantitative validation. The results give significant insights for service providers aiming to formulate pricing strategies, improve service quality, and align their value propositions with the preferences of urban consumers in Indonesia.</p> Tri Widyaningrum, Evelyn Erlina Fortunia, Dimas Radityo Widianto, Ariq Kamil Nugroho, Parhimpunan Simatupang Copyright (c) 2026 Author http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2011 Tue, 20 Jan 2026 00:00:00 +0000 AKSELERASI KINERJA UMKM: PERAN STRATEGIS FINANCIAL LITERACY DI ERA DIGITAL https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2023 <p>The decline in the number of active MSMEs in Boyolali Regency indicates obstacles in business performance, thus requiring financial literacy in the use of fintech and financial behaviour to improve MSME performance in a sustainable manner. The purpose of this study is to analyse the role of financial literacy in mediating the influence of financial behaviour and financial technology on SME performance in Boyolali Regency, with financial literacy as the mediator. This study uses a quantitative approach and primary data was collected from 140 SME actors through a questionnaire distributed using purposive sampling techniques. Data analysis was conducted using the PLS-SEM method. The research findings indicate that financial behaviour and financial literacy have a significant positive effect on MSME performance, while financial technology has a significant negative effect. Financial behaviour and financial technology have a significant positive effect on financial literacy. Furthermore, the effect of financial behaviour on MSME performance is partially mediated by financial literacy, while the effect of financial technology on MSME performance is fully mediated by financial literacy. It is hoped that these findings will enrich our understanding of how financial behaviour, financial technology and financial literacy influence the performance of MSMEs, and contribute fully to MSME actors and stakeholders in designing financial management strategies and policies for the sustainability of MSME performance.</p> Elena Rista Kurnia Shanti, Liana Mangifera Copyright (c) 2026 Author http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2023 Wed, 21 Jan 2026 00:00:00 +0000 PELAKSANAAN KESELAMATAN DAN KESEHATAN KERJA (K3) PADA PT.

Although the blue accounting paradigm offers a solution for integrating ecological and social dimensions in marine accounting reporting, many practices still focus on a technocratic approach that tends to ignore local values. This study aims to develop a blue accounting paradigm based on the local wisdom of the Maluku community, by exploring customary principles such as Sasi and Pela Gandong, which focus on ecological balance and sustainability. Through a reflective-philosophical approach, this study analyzes the ontological, epistemological, and axiological dimensions that shape the Maluku community's perspective on the sea. The findings indicate that the sea is not only viewed as an economic resource, but as a living entity containing moral and spiritual values. Therefore, blue accounting needs to accommodate these values ​​in the reporting system to produce fairer and more sustainable accountability. This study also suggests the integration of local wisdom within national and international policy frameworks, as well as the importance of developing customary-based indicators to strengthen the sustainability of marine ecosystems.</p> Muh.

The focus of the research is directed toward examining how these three factors interact in enhancing market reach, promotional efficiency, and the competitiveness of MSMEs in the digital era. Based on the survey results, it was found that the digital marketing strategies implemented have not yet produced optimal outcomes. The promotional activities remain passive, unstructured, and have not had a significant impact on increasing sales. This low level of marketing effectiveness is attributed to the absence of consistent promotional strategies, limited understanding of branding concepts, and the underutilization of analytical features and customer review tools. Therefore, the researchers developed training programs delivered through a website and disseminated them to participating MSMEs. The research findings indicate that all three types of website-based training—digital literacy, the use of digital wallets, and English language skills—have a positive effect on improving the marketing effectiveness of MSMEs. Digital literacy enhances promotional capabilities, digital wallets facilitate transaction convenience, and English language skills expand market reach. The integration of these three components through website-based training serves as an effective strategy for improving the competitiveness and marketing performance of MSMEs in the digital economy era.</p> Fransiska Sirait, Lika Silvia Batubara Copyright (c) 2026 Author http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2022 Thu, 22 Jan 2026 00:00:00 +0000 TAX PLANNING, COMPANY SIZE, AND FIRM VALUE IN REAL ESTATE https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2024 <p>This study aims to test and analyze the effect of Tax Planning and Company Size on Company Value in Property and Real Estate Companies Listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) in 2021-2024.

On average, the educational background of employees does not come from Islamic banking or related fields, but rather from conventional and general economics. In Islamic Human Capital Management (IHCM), the implementation of Islamic principles in human resource management is not only oriented toward improving employee performance but also contributes to employee job satisfaction. Therefore, this study is interesting and aims to examine whether IHCM and job satisfaction influence employee performance. This study employs a quantitative research design using the total sampling method, in which all members of the population are taken as research samples, totaling 40 respondents. Data were collected using a Likert scale supported by questionnaire (survey) techniques, observation, and a combination of both. Data analysis was conducted using SPSS version 22. The results of data analysis indicate that the Islamic Human Capital Management variable obtained a p-value (sig) of 0.000 &lt; α (0.05), thus H₀ is rejected and H₁ is accepted. This finding concludes that IHCM has a positive and significant effect on employee performance. The job satisfaction variable obtained a p-value (sig) of 0.001 &lt; α (0.05), thus H₀ is rejected and H₁ is accepted, indicating that job satisfaction has a positive and significant effect on employee performance. Simultaneously, the IHCM and job satisfaction variables obtained a p-value (sig) of 0.000 &lt; α (0.05), thus H₀ is rejected and H₁ is accepted. Therefore, it can be concluded that IHCM and job satisfaction jointly have a significant effect on employee performance at Bank Syariah Indonesia KCP Kolaka.</p> Alif Fadil Mallapiseng, M.

The increasing trend of online shopping has encouraged spontaneous buying behavior due to promotional strategies that create a sense of urgency and provide ease of transaction. This study used a quantitative approach with a survey method by distributing questionnaires to 125 respondents who were TikTok Shop users in the Jakarta and Bekasi areas. The sampling technique used purposive sampling, while data analysis used multiple linear regression using SPSS version 23. The results showed that flash sales, paylater, and FOMO had a positive and significant influence on impulse buying, both partially and simultaneously. Of the three variables, paylater proved to have the most dominant influence on impulsive buying behavior. These findings provide managerial implications for e-commerce players to strengthen promotional strategies that emphasize a sense of urgency and ease of payment to encourage spontaneous consumer purchasing decisions.</p> Sophiyanto Wuryan, Dika Amelia Amel, Ika Baskara Copyright (c) 2026 Author http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2032 Fri, 23 Jan 2026 00:00:00 +0000 ANALISIS TASK PERFORMANCE DALAM LINGKUNGAN KERJA: STUDI PERBANDINGAN KARYAWAN GENERASI Z DAN MILENIAL PADA PT.

Using quantitative data from digital banks' financial reports for the 2021–2024 period, this study examines how the development of financial technology (fintech) and asset utilization affect banks' profitability and financial stability through increased operational efficiency. Sampling in this study was conducted considering relevant and specific criteria to ensure the results reflect the actual conditions of the population studied. The sample was selected from digital banks listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange in 2024, with complete financial and operational data for at least the past two years. Inclusion criteria included 15 digital banks officially operating and having complete financial reports from 2021 to 2024, representing 75 sample units. The sampling technique used was purposive sampling. The data analysis tool used was SEM (Structural Equation Modeling). The analysis shows that fintech significantly accelerates service innovation and expands market access, thus contributing significantly positively to operational efficiency and financial performance. Optimal asset utilization also plays a crucial role in reducing credit risk and improving portfolio quality, ultimately improving operational efficiency and financial performance. Operational efficiency has been shown to contribute significantly positively to financial performance. Operational efficiency has been shown to be a mediating variable that strengthens the relationship between fintech, asset utilization, and financial performance. This study provides important implications for policymakers and digital bank management in optimizing operational strategies and technology investments to enhance competitiveness in the increasingly dynamic digital financial market.</p> Nurlaela, Samsu G, Ria Musfira, Indra Abadi, Adriani Copyright (c) 2026 Author http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2040 Tue, 27 Jan 2026 00:00:00 +0000 ANALISIS STRATEGI PEMERINTAH DAERAH ISTIMEWA YOGYAKARTA (DIY) DALAM MENYIKAPI PEMANGKASAN DANA KEISTIMEWAAN TAHUN 2025 https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2041 <p>The 2025 reduction of the Special Fund for the Special Region of Yogyakarta (DIY) necessitates strategic adjustments in asymmetric regional public finance management.

This shift creates new tensions, particularly in cultivating consumer trust among Generation Z, an audience known for valuing authenticity. This study aims to empirically test: (1) the influence of Virtual Influencers on Generation Z consumers' Brand Trust, (2) the influence of AI-Generated Content on Generation Z consumers' Purchase Intention, and (3) the mediating role of Brand Trust within these relationships. Employing a quantitative approach utilizing a Generation Z sample, the study results indicate that the adoption of Virtual Influencers faces significant challenges in establishing Brand Trust due to skepticism surrounding authenticity and the critical need for AI transparency. Conversely, AI-Generated Content was found to have a direct, positive, and significant influence on Purchase Intention, especially when the content is perceived as having high credibility and informativeness. The most crucial finding confirms that Brand Trust acts as a full and vital mediating variable; the influence of both Virtual Influencers and AI-Generated Content on Generation Z's Purchase Intention is only effectively realized after these variables successfully build and sustain brand confidence. The practical implications emphasize that brands must prioritize strict AI transparency ethics and ensure the quality of AIGC focuses on information to convert digital exposure into tangible purchasing actions.</p> Vilma Dewi Anggraeni Copyright (c) 2026 Author http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2045 Wed, 28 Jan 2026 00:00:00 +0000 STUDI KOMPARATIF STRATEGI INVESTASI GROWTH INVESTING DAN VALUE INVESTING DI PASAR MODAL INDONESIA https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2046 <p>This study aims to analyze and compare the implementation of growth investing and value investing strategies in the Indonesian capital market. The research approach used is a qualitative comparative study method. Data were obtained through in-depth interviews with investors, capital market analysts, and academics, supported by literature and documentation in the form of issuer financial reports and publications from the Indonesia Stock Exchange. Informant selection was conducted using purposive sampling, while data analysis used the Miles and Huberman interactive analysis model, which includes data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The results show that both growth investing and value investing are applied in the Indonesian capital market with various adjustments to the volatile market characteristics dominated by retail investors. Growth investing focuses more on a company's future growth potential and offers the opportunity for high returns, but is accompanied by significant volatility risks. Meanwhile, value investing emphasizes finding stocks that promise to be below their intrinsic value with a relatively lower level of risk, although requiring a longer investment period. This study also found that no investment strategy is absolutely superior, as the effectiveness of each strategy is strongly influenced by market conditions, investor characteristics, and investment objectives and horizons. This study concludes that understanding the characteristics of the Indonesian capital market and implementing investment strategies are crucial factors for investors in optimizing portfolio performance. These findings are expected to contribute theoretically to the study of investment strategies and serve as a practical reference for capital market investors in Indonesia.</p> Septiana Na'afi, Afrizal, Sean Michael Owen Wijaya, Laksono Edhi Lukito, Wiwit Agustina Copyright (c) 2026 Author http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2046 Wed, 28 Jan 2026 00:00:00 +0000 PERAN SIKAP DALAM MEMEDIASI PENGARUH INNOVATIVENES, MATERIALISME DAN FINANCIAL PRESSURE TERHADAP NIAT BELI PRODUK PRE LOVE https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2051 <p>This study aims to examine the influence of psychological and social factors on the purchase intention of secondhand clothing among Generation Z.

Investors can also use the findings of this study as a reference when making financial investments.</p> Carine, Titik Aryati Copyright (c) 2026 Author http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2052 Fri, 30 Jan 2026 00:00:00 +0000 PERAN CITRA SEKOLAH DALAM MEMEDIASI PENGARUH KUALITAS PELAYANAN DAN PEMASARAN DIGITAL TERHADAP KEPUTUSAN ORANG TUA DALAM PEMILIHAN SDK HARAPAN BANGSA BALIKPAPAN https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2054 <p>The increasing competition among private primary schools requires educational institutions to improve service quality, implement effective digital marketing strategies, and build a positive school image. Parents’ decisions in choosing a school are influenced not only by academic aspects but also by perceptions of service quality, digital communication, and school reputation. This study aims to analyze the effect of service quality and digital marketing on parents’ decisions, both directly and indirectly through school image as a mediating variable. This study employed a quantitative approach using a survey method involving 51 parents of Grade 1 students at SDK Harapan Bangsa Balikpapan in the 2025/2026 academic year using a saturated sampling technique. Data were collected through a Likert-scale questionnaire and analyzed using Partial Least Square–Structural Equation Modelling (PLS-SEM). The results show that service quality and digital marketing have a positive and significant effect on school image. Service quality and digital marketing have a positive but insignificant effect on parents’ decisions. School image has a positive and significant effect on parents’ decisions and significantly mediates the effect of digital marketing on parents’ decisions, but does not mediate the effect of service quality on parents’ decisions. These findings highlight the strategic importance of school image in educational service marketing.</p> Nora Silalahi, Tin Agustina Karnawati, Teguh Widodo Copyright (c) 2026 Author http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2054 Fri, 30 Jan 2026 00:00:00 +0000 PENGARUH KEPEMIMPINAN TRANSFORMASIONAL, BUDAYA ORGANISASI DAN KEPUASAN KERJA TERHADAP KINERJA PEGAWAI https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2055 <p>Amidst the demands for increased effectiveness of public sector organizations, the role of human resources is crucial in driving employee performance achievement.

Factors such as transformational leadership, work stress, and activity department play an important role in influencing turnover intentions. This study aims to determine the relationship between transformational leadership, work stress, and turnover intention at the Rumah Sakit Umum Pekerja, specifically investigating the mediating role of work stress and the moderating role of activity department. The sample of this study was 164 respondents working at the Rumah Sakit Umum Pekerja selected using a purposive sampling method. The respondent data were analyzed using the Structural Equation Model (SEM) and Smart PLS 4.0. The results of the study prove that transformational leadership has a negative and significant effect on turnover intentions and work stress. A significant relationship was found between work stress and turnover intentions. Work stress mediates the relationship between transformational leadership and turnover intentions. Next, the moderating effect of activity department on the relationship between transformational leadership and turnover intentions was determined. Managerial implications for reducing employee turnover intentions by emphasizing the importance of transformational leadership in reducing work stress and turnover intentions. Practical implications include the need for leadership training, work stress management, workload evaluation of each department's activities, and periodic performance evaluations to ensure that the retention and transformational leadership policies implemented have a positive impact on employees in the healthcare sector.</p> Trias Wibowo, Abdul Haeba Ramli Copyright (c) 2026 Author http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2057 Fri, 30 Jan 2026 00:00:00 +0000 ESG PARADOX ON PERFORMANCE AND DECOUPLING: AN INTEGRATIVE SLR APPROACH https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2056 <p>This study aims to explore and synthesize scholarly findings related to greenwashing and its relationship with the phenomenon of ESG decoupling through a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) approach. By examining more than 50 indexed articles from reputable international journals over the past two decades, this research identifies key determinants, patterns, and implications of greenwashing practices on the integrity of environmental, social, and governance (ESG) disclosures and performance. The analysis reveals that greenwashing is frequently driven by external pressures such as stakeholder expectations and weak regulatory environments, while poor internal governance systems contribute to the misalignment between ESG symbolism and actual corporate performance. The study emphasizes the urgency of strengthening ESG transparency and accountability, and the critical role of oversight mechanisms including boards of directors and independent audit institutions. These findings contribute significantly to the theoretical foundation of legitimacy and decoupling, while also offering new directions for future research agendas in the context of corporate sustainability and ESG monitoring.</p> M Hendri Yan Nyale, Sapto Jumono, Yanuar Ramadhan, Chaerani Nisa Copyright (c) 2026 Author http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2056 Mon, 02 Feb 2026 00:00:00 +0000 ANALISIS PENGELOLAAN ARSIP DI PT BELFOODS INDONESIA https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2059 <p>This research was conducted to examine the archival system at PT Belfoods Indonesia Bogor. The objective of the study is to identify the constraints and alternative solutions in dealing with existing problems. The data collection technique used was observation, namely direct observation of the object under study. The constraints found in the archival system at PT Belfoods Indonesia include the lack of human resources with adequate skills and knowledge, loss of documents caused by improper storage, and the presence of documents that no longer have use value stored in filing cabinets, resulting in overcrowded storage. The solutions implemented so far have not been effective, as several alternatives are often disrupted by urgent tasks that must be prioritized. Therefore, efforts are needed to raise employees’ awareness of proper archival administration in accordance with applicable regulations.</p> Sidik Fathurohin, Retno Widowati Copyright (c) 2026 Author http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2059 Mon, 02 Feb 2026 00:00:00 +0000 DETERMINASI FINANCIAL WELL-BEING UMKM: PERAN FINANCIAL LITERACY, SELF-EFFICACY, DAN BEHAVIOR https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2060 <p>The low level of financial well-being in Indonesia indicates weak financial management capabilities, highlighting the need for cognitive, psychological, and behavioral factors that can sustainably enhance financial well-being, particularly among micro, small, and medium enterprise (MSME) actors. This study aims to analyze the effect of financial literacy and financial self-efficacy on financial well-being, with financial behavior as a mediating variable among manufacturing-sector MSMEs in Surakarta City. A quantitative approach was employed using an explanatory research design. Primary data were collected through questionnaires distributed to 169 respondents using purposive sampling techniques and measured using a five-point Likert scale. Data analysis was conducted using Partial Least Squares–Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) through measurement and structural model evaluation as well as bootstrapping tests. The findings indicate that financial literacy and financial self-efficacy have a positive and significant effect on financial well-being and financial behavior. Financial behavior also has a positive and significant effect on financial well-being and is proven to partially mediate the relationship between financial literacy and financial self-efficacy with financial well-being. These results emphasize that financial knowledge and confidence must be manifested in sound financial management behaviors in order to improve the financial well-being of MSMEs.</p> Putri Andini, Liana Mangifera Copyright (c) 2026 Author http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2060 Mon, 02 Feb 2026 00:00:00 +0000 PENGARUH INFLASI DAN BI RATE TERHADAP JUMLAH KREDIT PERBANKAN DI INDONESIA PERIODE TAHUN 2020-2023 https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2064 <p>The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of inflation and the BI Rate on the total amount of bank credit in Indonesia during the period 2020–2023.

Employing a quantitative methodology through survey techniques, data were gathered via questionnaires directed at 130 employees, subsequently analyzed using SmartPLS and PLS-SEM. The findings of the research indicated that competencies and professional experience do not exert a direct positive effect on employee performance. Nevertheless, these elements exhibit a positive and significant influence on the framework of organizational culture. Furthermore, employee performance is positively and significantly affected by the organizational culture. The analysis of indirect effects corroborates that organizational culture effectively mediates the relationship between employee competencies and performance, as well as between professional experience and employee performance. These results underscore the strategic importance of organizational culture in enhancing corporate contributions, illustrating that enhanced competencies and professional experience can elevate employee productivity while nurturing a robust and supportive organizational culture to maximize human resource potential.</p> Ditha Kurnia Setyautami, Jati Waskito Copyright (c) 2026 Author http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2063 Thu, 05 Feb 2026 00:00:00 +0000 PENGARUH MOTIVASI DAN KEPUASAN KERJA TERHADAP KINERJA PEGAWAI PADA DINAS KOPERASI UKM PERINDUSTRIAN DAN PERDAGANGAN PROVINSI PAPUA BARAT DAYA https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2066 <p>This study aims to analyze the influence of work motivation and job satisfaction on employee performance at the Office of Cooperatives, SMEs, Industry, and Trade of Southwest Papua Province.

This study uses a quantitative approach with a causal associative research type. The research sample consisted of 64 civil servants determined using the census method. Data were analyzed through descriptive analysis, classical assumption tests, multiple linear regression analysis, t-tests, F-tests, coefficient of determination (R²) tests, and Effective Contributions (SE) and Relative Contributions. The results of the study indicate that partially work facilities have a positive but insignificant effect on civil servant performance with a calculated t value of 1.999 and a significance of 0.050, while organizational commitment has a positive and significant effect with a calculated t value of 5.414 and a significance of &lt;0.001. Meanwhile, organizational culture has a positive but insignificant effect on civil servant performance with a calculated t value of 1.729 and a significance of 0.089. Simultaneously, the three independent variables have a significant effect on civil servant performance with a calculated F value of 22.093 and a significance of &lt;0.001. The coefficient of determination (R²) value of 0.525 indicates that 52.5% of the variation in civil servant performance can be explained by work facilities, organizational commitment, and organizational culture, with organizational commitment as the most dominant variable. The effective contribution (SE) to the dependent variable (Y) is obtained from the variables Organizational Commitment (X₂) of 34.1%, Organizational Culture (X₃) of 9.8%. and Work Facilities (X₁) of 8.6%. The relative contribution (SR) of Organizational Commitment (X₂) is 64.9%, followed by Organizational Culture (X₃) of 18.8%, and Work Facilities (X₁) of 16.3%.</p> Yosep Kanan, Andi Irwan, Wa Ode Likewati Copyright (c) 2026 Author http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2067 Thu, 05 Feb 2026 00:00:00 +0000 PERAN KETERAMPILAN KOMUNIKASI SEBAGAI SOFT SKILLS DALAM PENYELESAIAN KONFLIK AKADEMIK: PERSEPSI MAHASISWA GENERASI Z https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2070 <p>Academic conflict is a phenomenon that is inseparable from the dynamics of student life, especially in Generation Z who have strong digital communication characteristics. This study aims to analyze the characteristics of academic conflicts experienced by Generation Z students, their perception of the role of communication skills as soft skills in conflict resolution, and communication factors that affect the success and failure of academic conflict resolution. This study uses a descriptive quantitative approach by involving 100 active students as respondents. Data were collected through questionnaires and analyzed descriptively. The results of the study show that academic conflicts among Generation Z students are generally interpersonal and task conflicts, with low to moderate intensity and arise situationally. The dominant conflict resolution strategy is direct and collaborative communication, although some students still choose to avoid conflict. The majority of respondents view communication skills as a factor that greatly influences the success of conflict resolution, especially open and honest communication, focus on solutions, active listening, empathy, and emotional management. On the other hand, communication failures are most caused by uncontrolled emotions, ego and defensiveness, and an unwillingness to accept input. These findings affirm the importance of strengthening communication skills and conflict resolution as part of the development of students' soft skills in higher education.</p> Dhiya Aulia Hanifah, Tety Muhithoh, Muhammad Yusuf Akbar, Dingot Hamonangan Ismail Copyright (c) 2026 Author http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2070 Thu, 05 Feb 2026 00:00:00 +0000 PENGARUH STRUKTUR MODAL YANG DIPROKSIKAN DENGAN DER, DAR, DAN LTDER TERHADAP EARNING PER SHARE (EPS) https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2072 <p>This study aims to analyze the effect of capital structure, proxied by the Debt to Equity Ratio (DER), Debt to Asset Ratio (DAR), and Long Term Debt to Equity Ratio (LTDER), on Earnings Per Share (EPS) in companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX). Capital structure is one of the important financial decisions that can affect a company's financial performance and the level of profits received by shareholders. EPS was chosen as the dependent variable because it reflects earnings per share, which is a primary concern for investors in making investment decisions. This study uses a quantitative approach with a causal associative method. The data used are secondary data in the form of annual financial reports of companies listed on the IDX during the study period. The sampling technique was carried out using purposive sampling, while the data analysis technique used multiple linear regression analysis preceded by descriptive statistical tests and classical assumption tests. The results of the study indicate that the Debt to Equity Ratio (DER), Debt to Asset Ratio (DAR), and Long-Term Debt to Equity Ratio (LTDER) each partially influence Earnings Per Share (EPS). This finding indicates that a company's capital structure policy, both in terms of total debt and long-term debt, plays a significant role in determining earnings per share. Therefore, optimal capital structure management is necessary for companies to improve financial performance and shareholder welfare.</p> Clara Neltje Meini Rotinsulu Copyright (c) 2026 Author http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2072 Thu, 05 Feb 2026 00:00:00 +0000 EKSPLORASI FAKTOR YANG MEMPENGARUHI JOB HOPPING DI INDUSTRI FOOD AND BEVERAGE https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2062 <p>The phenomenon of job hopping is increasingly common among high school graduates working in the food and beverage (F&amp;B) sector. Job characteristics that require physical readiness, a fast work rhythm, and limited career development opportunities encourage workers to not stay long in one workplace. This study aims to examine the factors influencing job hopping behavior among high school graduates in the F&amp;B industry using the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) framework. The study was conducted using a qualitative approach through phenomenological methods. Subjects were selected using purposive sampling, namely high school graduates working in the F&amp;B industry and having experience changing jobs. Data were collected through in-depth interviews and observations, then analyzed using NVivo 12 software. The results show that job hopping behavior is influenced by attitudes toward behavior, subjective norms, and perceived behavioral control. These findings indicate that job hopping decisions are the result of an interaction between personal and social factors and are expected to contribute to the development of work psychology studies and human resource management practices.</p> Wina Padma Febryani Putri, Ira Hidayati, Intan Islamia Copyright (c) 2026 Author http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2062 Mon, 09 Feb 2026 00:00:00 +0000 PERAN MEDIASI PENDIDIKAN DAN MASA JABATAN TERHADAP KINERJA KARYAWAN HOTEL GRAND SAHID JAYA https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2065 <p>The factors influencing employee performance are a major concern for businesses in an increasingly dynamic workplace.

Using a quantitative approach with a causal associative method, data were collected from 98 respondents in Kuin Besar Village and Kuin Kecil Village, Banjar Regency, through a proportionate stratified random sampling technique. Data analysis was conducted using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) based on Partial Least Squares (PLS). The results show that both partially and simultaneously, the three independent variables have a positive and significant effect on the effectiveness of village fund management. Village apparatus accountability was found to be the variable with the most dominant influence, confirming Agency Theory in minimizing information asymmetry. Collectively, the contribution of participation, trust, and accountability to the variance in village fund management effectiveness is 68.4%. These findings confirm that the effectiveness of the budget not only depends on an accountable administrative system but also requires active citizen involvement and a strong moral relationship between the village government and the community. It is recommended that the village government enhance the digitalization of accountability and strengthen integrity through an integrity pact to maintain public trust.</p> Muhammad Fahmi, Yuliani, Neti Rosiana Fadilah, Lidiana Copyright (c) 2026 Author http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2073 Mon, 09 Feb 2026 00:00:00 +0000 KEKUATAN DAN TANTANGAN PERAN ISTRI NELAYAN DALAM AKTIVITAS EKONOMI KELUARGA PESISIR https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2074 <p>Coastal areas are characterized by economic vulnerability due to their strong dependence on natural conditions and seasonal sectors such as fisheries and tourism. Fishermen’s wives play a crucial role in sustaining the economic resilience of coastal households. This study aims to analyze the strengths and challenges of fishermen’s wives’ roles in household economic activities in Batu Karas Village, Pangandaran Regency. The research employed a qualitative descriptive approach using qualitative SWOT analysis. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, field observations, and document analysis involving village officials, management of the Mina Rasa Village Cooperative, fishing communities, and fishermen’s wives engaged in economic activities. The findings reveal that fishermen’s wives contribute significantly to the distribution of fishery products, the development of micro-scale businesses, and the diversification of household income sources. Revealed strengths include role flexibility and strong social capital within women’s coastal communities. However, these contributions are constrained by limited financial literacy, business management skills, and restricted access to decision-making processes within formal economic institutions. Meanwhile, the recovery of the coastal tourism sector presents opportunities for the development of value-added fishery products and creative coastal enterprises. This study underscores the importance of strengthening capacity building and institutional integration of fishermen’s wives within coastal economic governance to enhance the long-term economic resilience of fishermen’s households.</p> Gessan Kurnia Dewi, Naurah Lisnarini, Mochhamad Ikhsan Cahya Utama Copyright (c) 2026 Author http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2074 Mon, 09 Feb 2026 00:00:00 +0000 PENGARUH ETOS KERJA DAN KOMPENSASI TERHADAP KINERJA GURU MELALUI MOTIVASI SEBAGAI VARIABEL INTERVENING DI SDK HARAPAN BANGSA BALIKPAPAN https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2087 <p>Education is a fundamental pillar in national development, where the quality of its implementation is largely determined by teachers’ performance as the main actors in the learning process. Teachers play a strategic role not only in delivering instructional content but also in shaping students’ competencies and character. Therefore, teachers’ performance is a crucial indicator of educational institution success. In the context of school organizations, teachers’ performance is influenced by various internal and external factors, including work ethic, compensation, and work motivation. Differences in work attitudes, levels of professional commitment, and reward systems received by teachers represent important phenomena that need to be examined to comprehensively understand teacher performance dynamics. This study aims to analyze the effects of work ethic and compensation on teachers’ performance, both directly and through work motivation as an intervening variable, at SDK Harapan Bangsa Balikpapan. This research employed a quantitative approach using a survey method. The research population consisted of all teachers at SDK Harapan Bangsa Balikpapan, totaling 35 respondents, and a saturated sampling technique was applied, in which the entire population was used as the research sample. The results indicate that work ethic and compensation have a positive and significant effect on teachers’ performance. Work ethic also has a positive and significant effect on teachers’ work motivation. However, compensation does not have a significant effect on work motivation, and work motivation does not have a significant effect on teachers’ performance. Furthermore, work motivation does not function as an intervening variable in the relationship between work ethic and compensation and teachers’ performance.</p> Hana Flowerens Sitorus, Fathorrahman, Dany M.

This study aims to analyze how local cultural values serve as antecedents in shaping Sustainable Human Resource Management (Sustainable HRM) practices in Cikalong Village, Pangandaran Regency. The study employed a qualitative descriptive approach with a case study design. Data were collected through participatory observation, in-depth interviews, and profile questionnaires distributed to 34 respondents representing various societal elements (farmers, entrepreneurs, traditional leaders). The findings indicate that local traditions such as Rengkong (mutual cooperation) and Nampaling (environmental balance) have been internalized into positive work behaviors. The dominance of agrarian culture and the demographic structure of the community proved to be strong social capital in forming collaborative work behavior (social sustainability) and environmental awareness (green HRM) organically. This study concludes that local culture is not merely a heritage of the past, but a strategic asset that ensures the sustainability of HR management in tourism villages.</p> Nurul Mardhiah Sitio, Meisa Aulia Zahrani, Rini Aprillia Copyright (c) 2026 Author http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2088 Mon, 09 Feb 2026 00:00:00 +0000 PENGARUH PELATIHAN DAN GAYA KEPEMIMPINAN TERHADAP PRODUKTIVITAS KARYAWAN YANG DIMEDIASI OLEH KEPUASAN KERJA https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2089 <p>This research employs a quantitative methodology through explanatory analysis of variables that mediate job satisfaction to assess the impact of leadership style and training on employee productivity.

Furthermore, job training and leadership style also exert a positive and significant influence on job satisfaction. Nevertheless, job satisfaction does not significantly affect employee productivity and fails to mediate the relationship between training and leadership style on productivity. These findings suggest that enhancements in employee productivity are more effectively attained through the direct enhancement of competencies and leadership attributes rather than through emotional factors such as job satisfaction. It is anticipated that this research will serve as a foundational reference for organizations in formulating HR development strategies that are more focused on boosting productivity.</p> Arum Anisa, Ihwan Susila Copyright (c) 2026 Author http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2089 Mon, 09 Feb 2026 00:00:00 +0000 MANAJEMEN PEMBINAAN KARAKTER SISWA/I SMK SARI PUTRA MELALUI KEGIATAN NASIONAL HUT TNI KE-80 https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2090 <p>This study aims to analyze the management of student character development through participation in national activities, focusing on the involvement of SMK Sari Putra North Jakarta in the 80th Anniversary of the Indonesian National Armed Forces (TNI) at the National Monument, Jakarta.

This research used a causal research design with a quantitative approach. Data was gathered using questionnaires given out to 180 individuals who regularly use Scarlett products in Indonesia.had made repeat purchases, and were aware of Scarlett’s promotions involving K-Pop brand ambassadors. Purposive sampling was the method of sampling that was employed. Using SmartPLS 4 software, partial least squares–structural equation modeling, or PLS-SEM, was used to analyze the data. The findings show that while brand awareness and image have a favorable and considerable impact on brand attitude, they do not significantly affect repurchase intention. Both brand attitude and repurchase intention are significantly and favorably impacted by brand ambassadors. Additionally, repurchase intention is positively and significantly impacted by brand sentiment. Brand attitude strongly mediates the association between brand image and brand ambassador on repurchase intention, according to mediation tests, but it does not mediate the impact of brand awareness. These findings emphasize the crucial role of brand attitude in encouraging repurchase intention, particularly through positive brand perceptions and the effectiveness of K-Pop brand ambassadors.</p> Mahabbatul Hidayah, Kussudyarsana Copyright (c) 2026 Author http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2092 Wed, 11 Feb 2026 00:00:00 +0000 PERILAKU COMPULSIVE BUYING PADA REMAJA DI KOTA BANDUNG DALAM PERSPEKTIF SOSIOLOGI EKONOMI https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2093 <p>The phenomenon of shopping is an interesting topic from a social and economic perspective. Modern developments have given rise to different perceptions and goals of shopping. One such phenomenon is compulsive buying. This article aims to explain how compulsive buying is practiced by teenagers in Bandung. This paper aims to describe concrete examples and forms of adolescent shopping behavior in Bandung, which demonstrate repetitive behavior to gain certain social status and recognition in society. This study uses Solomon's theory of compulsive buying and James Coleman's theory of rational choice, which states that compulsive buyers are those who like to spend their money on things they don't need. Compulsive buyers will feel anxious if their desires are not fulfilled or if the desired item cannot be purchased. In economic sociology, compulsive buying, which is part of the economic process of consumption, can be analyzed using James Coleman's Rational Choice Theory on the phenomenon of compulsive buying among urban adolescents in Indonesia, offering an interesting perspective: behavior that seems irrational (wasteful/impulsive) is actually a rational and planned action to achieve certain social goals. This descriptive research aims to create a systematic, factual, and accurate description or picture of compulsive buying among adolescents in Bandung City. Based on the analysis, James Coleman believes that compulsive buying among Bandung teenagers is a strategic investment for survival in a city ecosystem that prioritizes the aesthetics of creativity. They exchange their pocket money for validation as contemporary or urban youth. They seek access to creative social circles and a sense of security from the stigma of being out of date in exchange for social recognition within certain friendship circles.</p> Ria Arifianti, Farah Putri Firsanty Copyright (c) 2026 Author http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2093 Wed, 11 Feb 2026 00:00:00 +0000 MANAJEMEN RISIKO DAN STRATEGIC CONTROL DALAM TATA KELOLA ASURANSI UMUM https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2094 <p>This study aims to analyze the contribution of risk management and strategic control in enhancing the effectiveness of corporate governance in the general insurance industry. Strong corporate governance is a key prerequisite for addressing risk complexity, regulatory requirements, and the competitive dynamics of the insurance sector. This study adopts a qualitative approach using a systematic literature review and descriptive analysis of risk management frameworks, strategic control mechanisms, and corporate governance practices in general insurance companies. Data were obtained from secondary sources, including reputable international journal articles, industry regulations, and relevant corporate reports. The findings indicate that the integration of comprehensive risk management with effective strategic control strengthens oversight functions, improves the quality of strategic decision making, and promotes the implementation of transparency, accountability, and responsibility principles. These findings confirm that the synergy between risk management and strategic control plays a significant role in improving corporate governance quality and supporting the sustainability of general insurance companies’ performance.</p> Reimond Hasangapan Mikkael Napitupulu, R.

However, this policy may generate indirect yet significant implications for consumer protection mechanisms, particularly through the role of insurance brokers as independent intermediaries. This study aims to comprehensively analyze the impact of the 2026 minimum capital requirement on consumer protection as exercised through insurance brokers, while linking regulatory developments to brokers’ empirical performance conditions during the 2023–2025 period. The research employs a qualitative approach using a juridical-empirical and policy analysis framework, drawing on regulatory documents and high-quality international academic literature. The findings indicate that stricter capital requirements tend to accelerate market consolidation and narrow brokers’ operational space in product comparison, policy negotiation, and consumer assistance. Such structural pressures may weaken brokers’ substantive independence and diminish their effectiveness as consumer protection instruments. The study concludes that consumer protection in the insurance sector cannot rely solely on insurers’ financial strength but must also be supported by a regulatory framework that preserves and strengthens the role of insurance brokers through proportional and risk-based regulatory approaches.</p> Robidi, Agus Subrata, Muhamad Ihsan, Desi Roro Kiatin Copyright (c) 2026 Author http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2095 Wed, 11 Feb 2026 00:00:00 +0000 JOB INVOLVEMENT DALAM PERSPEKTIF MANAJEMEN SUMBER DAYA MANUSIA: STUDI LITERATUR KUALITATIF https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2101 <p>This study aims to examine the role of job involvement from a Human Resource Management (HRM) perspective and its implications for employee performance through a qualitative literature study approach. Job involvement is the level of an individual's psychological attachment to their work, reflected in self-identification, work meaning, and willingness to contribute optimally to the organization. In a dynamic work environment, job involvement becomes a strategic factor in increasing employee productivity and performance sustainability. The research method uses a qualitative literature study by reviewing national and international journal articles, scientific proceedings, and relevant academic books published in the last five years. Data were analyzed using content analysis and thematic synthesis techniques to identify patterns of relationships between HRM practices, job involvement, and employee performance. The results of the study indicate that job involvement plays a key role in bridging HRM practices with improved employee performance. Practices such as job design, training and development, and organizational support have been shown to increase job involvement, which impacts performance, organizational commitment, and innovative behavior. This study concludes that strengthening job involvement needs to be a primary organizational strategy in optimizing human resource management.</p> Anik Widiyanti Copyright (c) 2026 Author http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2101 Wed, 11 Feb 2026 00:00:00 +0000 PENGARUH KUALITAS PENGADUAN, KECEPATAN PENANGANAN DAN KEPUASAN PENGGUNA TERHADAP EFEKTIVITAS FITUR PENGADUAN PLN MOBILE UP3 CIKOKOL https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2103 <p>In the digital era, public services have transformed through applications such as PLN Mobile. The effectiveness of its complaint feature is influenced by complaint quality, handling speed, and user satisfaction, with digital literacy serving as a moderator. This study aims to analyze the factors affecting the effectiveness of the complaint feature on the PLN Mobile application within the PLN UP3 Cikokol working area.Using purposive sampling, the study involved 120 respondents who are customers of PLN UP3 Cikokol. Data analysis was performed using PLS-SEM with smartpls 4 software. The results indicate that complaint quality, handling speed, and user satisfaction significantly influence complaint feature effectiveness. Notably, complaint quality has the strongest impact on user satisfaction compared to other relationships in the model. Furthermore, digital literacy does not significantly moderate the influence of complaint quality, handling speed, or user satisfaction on feature effectiveness. This suggests that the PLN Mobile complaint feature is sufficiently inclusive, ensuring its effectiveness is accessible to all users regardless of their digital proficiency levels.</p> Jean Christover, Sunding Pantja Djati, Siti Mariam, Erlina Puspitaloka Mahadewi Copyright (c) 2026 Author http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2103 Wed, 11 Feb 2026 00:00:00 +0000 ANTARA PAJAK DAN HARGA TIKET : TANTANGAN FISKAL MASKAPAI INDONESIA DI TENGAH GEMPURAN MASKAPAI REGIONAL ASEAN https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2098 <p>Indonesia’s aviation industry plays a crucial role in national connectivity but faces significant challenges from regional competitors offering lower ticket prices. Domestic airlines bear heavier fiscal burdens, including aviation fuel taxes, VAT on tickets, and non-tax state revenues, which increase operational costs and reduce competitiveness. Using a comparative qualitative approach, this paper examines Indonesia’s fiscal policies against those of neighboring countries such as Singapore and Malaysia. Findings show that higher taxation weakens domestic airlines’ market position, while regional carriers benefit from lighter fiscal regimes and subsidies. Policy recommendations include reducing aviation fuel taxes, providing VAT incentives, and subsidizing airport infrastructure to strengthen the competitiveness of Indonesian airlines.</p> Subur Harahap, Edi Wahyu Wibowo Copyright (c) 2026 Author http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2098 Thu, 12 Feb 2026 00:00:00 +0000 PENGARUH PROFITABILITAS, LEVERAGE, DAN UKURAN PERUSAHAAN TERHADAP PENGUNGKAPAN CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY DENGAN KUALITAS AUDIT SEBAGAI VARIABEL MODERASI https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2099 <p>This study aims to examine the effect of profitability, leverage, and company size on corporate social responsibility, with audit quality as a moderating variable, in energy sector companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) for the 2019–2023 period.

The study sample consisted of 18 energy sector companies listed on the IDX, with a total sample size of 95 company financial reports. The data analysis technique used was multiple linear regression analysis. The results of this study indicate that (1) profitability has a significant positive effect on CSR disclosure, (2) leverage has no effect on CSR disclosure, (3) company size has a significant positive effect on CSR disclosure, and (4) audit quality weakens the relationship between profitability, leverage, and company size on CSR disclosure.</p> F Agung Himawan, Niko Kurniawan, Edi Wahyu Wibowo Copyright (c) 2026 Author http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2099 Thu, 12 Feb 2026 00:00:00 +0000 DAMPAK KEBERLANJUTAN DAN DIGITALISASI TERHADAP KINERJA KEUANGAN DAN NILAI PERUSAHAAN https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2100 <p>The phenomenon of corporate sustainability, manifested through Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) and Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) initiatives, has become a global priority, encouraging companies to integrate environmental, social, and governance criteria into their strategies and operations. Pressure from environmental protection organizations and stakeholders has made continuous improvement a crucial topic in corporate management. Positive Relationship between Sustainability and Financial Performance (FC)/Firm Value (FV): Empirical evidence supports the hypothesis that continuous CEP improvement is positively related to both accounting-based and market-based CFP financial performance. In general, sustainability performance has been shown to have a significant positive relationship with financial performance, measured by Return on Assets (ROA) and Market Value (MV/BV). This approach aligns with the social impact hypothesis and the reputation-building explanation. Strengthening Internal Governance (IAQ) in the Digital Age: Encourage research focused on the role of internal governance mechanisms (e.g., IAQ) in verifying ESG data and mitigating the risk of Greenwashing (GW). The literature review should emphasize that managers should understand and use GW as an environmental communication strategy, but should do so carefully and be supported by effective internal audit. Alternative Performance Variables: Encourage the use of more comprehensive alternative financial and sustainability performance variables, such as additional economic and social dimensions within GW, broader corporate governance functions within IAQ, or other metrics such as ROE.</p> Albertus Karjono, Edi Wahyu Wibowo Copyright (c) 2026 Author http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2100 Thu, 12 Feb 2026 00:00:00 +0000 UMKM JAKARTA NAIK KELAS: PERAN MANAJEMEN BISNIS DALAM BERSAING DI PASAR LOKAL & GLOBAL https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2102 <p>This study aims to analyze the role of business management in encouraging Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in Jakarta and its surrounding areas to move up to a higher level and enhance their competitiveness in local and global markets. The study employs a quantitative approach using a survey method. Data were collected through structured questionnaires distributed to 100 MSME owners in Jakarta and surrounding areas. The variables measured include business management practices—covering financial management, marketing, production, and human resource management—and MSME competitiveness. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and simple linear regression analysis. The results indicate that business management has a positive and significant effect on MSME competitiveness. MSMEs that apply more structured and integrated business management practices tend to experience increased revenue, market expansion, improved product quality, and higher levels of managerial professionalism. These findings highlight that the success of MSMEs in moving up to a higher level in urban areas is determined not only by the adoption of digital technology and online marketing, but also by strong managerial capabilities and adaptability to dynamic market competition.</p> Deny Sudrajat, Ermanuri, D Purnomo, Aris Hendrawan, Muhammad Azhar Nasution Copyright (c) 2026 Author http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2102 Thu, 12 Feb 2026 00:00:00 +0000 ANALISIS STRATEGI PERSONAL SELLING DALAM MENINGKATKAN JUMLAH PENERIMAAN MAHASISWA BARU DI STIKES ABDI NUSANTARA https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2107 <p>This study aims to analyze personal selling strategies to increase new student admissions at STIKes Abdi Nusantara using a qualitative approach through data collection techniques such as interviews, observations, and document studies. The results indicate that personal selling strategies are implemented through various approaches such as school visits, WhatsApp communication, participation in campus fairs, and the involvement of lecturers, staff, active students, and alumni, which create two-way communication and build emotional bonds with prospective students. This strategy has had a positive impact on increasing the number of applicants, a success supported by the responsiveness of the promotion team, the use of appropriate media, and testimonials from alumni.

Employees with high job satisfaction tend to show good work motivation, minimal conflicts, and are able to contribute optimally to achieving organizational goals. In the context of educational institutions, job satisfaction becomes a crucial factor because it is directly related to the quality of educational services and the teaching-learning process. ABC Foundation, as an educational institution, has a strategic role in shaping a quality generation, but is faced with the phenomenon of job dissatisfaction experienced by some teachers and staff. The issues include aspects of welfare, workload, and the internal communication system, which are considered not yet optimal, resulting in decreased motivation, increased complaints, and fluctuations in employee performance. This study aims to analyze the level of job satisfaction among employees at ABC Foundation and to identify the main factors affecting it. The results of this study are expected to provide a clear picture of the employees' job satisfaction situation and serve as a basis for the foundation in formulating more effective human resource management policies to improve employee performance and the quality of educational services sustainably.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> Siti Nur Rohmah, Tri Andriani, Nurulita Amalia, Ilham, Mia Rahma Dewi Copyright (c) 2026 Author http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2109 Thu, 12 Feb 2026 00:00:00 +0000 PENGARUH CITRA MEREK, KUALITAS PELAYANAN, DAN WORD OF MOUTH TERHADAP KEPUTUSAN KONSUMEN MEMILIH JASA WEDDING ORGANIZER ELEXTRA PALEMBANG https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2048 <p>This study aims to determine the influence of brand image, service quality, and word of mouth on consumers' decisions to choose the services of Elextra Wedding Organizer Palembang.

The research employs a quantitative approach with a survey method using questionnaires distributed to 100 respondents. Data were analyzed using validity and reliability tests, regression analysis, t-test, F-test, as well as R Square and regression coefficient (B) analysis. The results indicate that consumer loyalty has a significant and dominant effect on marketing improvement, while communication strategy does not have a significant partial effect. However, simultaneously, both variables have a significant effect on marketing improvement. The R Square value of 0.957 shows that 95.7% of the variation in marketing improvement can be explained by these two independent variables. These findings emphasize the importance of strengthening consumer loyalty as a primary focus in marketing strategies, even though communication strategies still need to be evaluated and effectively integrated. This study is limited by the number of variables and sample size, and does not account for other external factors that may influence the results. Suggestions for future research include expanding the variables studied, increasing the number of respondents, and utilizing qualitative approaches to gain a deeper and more comprehensive understanding of consumer behavior and the effectiveness of marketing strategies.</p> Elisabeth Rande, Mervin I.S.

The research method uses a systematic literature review of various scientific sources in the form of journals, books, and research reports relevant to the concepts of CRM, sharia marketing, and Muslim consumer behavior. The results of the study show that the application of sharia-based CRM not only focuses on customer satisfaction but also on building trust, religious commitment, and the value of sustainable transactions. Strategies such as personal communication, transparency regarding animal quality, ease of payment services, and assistance with sacrificial rituals have been proven to have the potential to increase customer loyalty and business differentiation. This study concludes that integrating CRM principles with sharia values can be a competitive advantage for sacrificial animal retailers in urban areas, while also strengthening the emotional and spiritual relationship between businesses and consumers. The implications of this study provide a conceptual basis for the development of an applicable sharia CRM model in the religious retail sector.</p> Nurdin, Abdul Kohar Copyright (c) 2026 Author http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2121 Mon, 23 Feb 2026 00:00:00 +0000 FAKTOR DETERMINAN EFEKTIVITAS ERP PADA KARYAWAN PENGELOLA KAWASAN JABABEKA: PERAN KEPUASAN KERJA https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2122 <p>In the post-implementation phase, the effectiveness of Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) is not only determined by the technical system aspects but is also influenced by individual and organizational factors.

The type of research used is qualitative with a descriptive approach. The research object is the CPNS selection process for the 2024 formation within the BKPSDM Office of Southwest Papua Province. The research population includes all stakeholders in the selection process. The sample was taken using purposive sampling, consisting of 4 (four) key informants: a successful candidate, an unsuccessful candidate, a selection committee member (Head of Procurement Division), and the Head of UPTD BKN Sorong. Data collection techniques were carried out through semi-structured interviews, observation, and documentation studies. Data analysis used the interactive model of Miles and Huberman through the stages of data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing/verification. In terms of strengths, the CAT system was considered to significantly enhance transparency and accountability through real-time question randomization, instant result announcements, and live broadcasts via YouTube channels, which substantially reduced opportunities for unfair practices. The system was also deemed more operationally efficient compared to conventional methods. However, the main challenges lay in non-technical factors such as limited physical building capacity, high infrastructure rental costs, and the need to improve the digital literacy of prospective participants. The final conclusion of the study indicates that the successful implementation of CAT depends on the synergy between infrastructure readiness, human resource capacity, regulatory support, and commitment to good governance. The strategic recommendations proposed include the construction of an independent CAT laboratory by the local government and the intensification of digital literacy socialization and training programs for the community.</p> Yeheskel Kalami, Wa Ode Likewati, Andi Irwan Copyright (c) 2026 Author http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2132 Thu, 26 Feb 2026 00:00:00 +0000 PENGARUH KEDISIPLINAN DAN MOTIVASI KERJA TERHADAP KINERJA GURU SEKOLAH DASAR PADA DISTRIK TEMINABUAN KABUPATEN SORONG SELATAN https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2133 <p>This study aims to analyze the effect of discipline and work motivation on the performance of elementary school teachers in Teminabuan District, South Sorong Regency.

Employee performance can be influenced by servant leadership, workload, and the work environment . Servant leadership influences performance directly, innovative behavior , and work engagement , as well as performance through innovative behavior. Workload on performance directly and through Work Engagement . Work Environment on performance directly also on Innovative Behavior and Work Engagement as well as on performance through Work Engagement . Innovative Behavior and Work Engagement directly on performance. This study aims to gain a better understanding of the role of Servant Leadership , Workload, Work Environment on employee performance, by considering the role of Innovative Behavior and Work Engagement as mediators. Data collection was conducted through the distribution of online questionnaires to 152 health care workers at Lebak Mission Hospital. Data were analyzed using Structural Equition Modeling (SEM), Smart PLS 4.0 software. The results of the analysis show that Servant Leadership influences Innovative Behavior and Work Engagement but not directly on employee performance, nor does it influence employee performance through Innovative Behavior. Workload influences employee performance but does not influence through Work Engagement . Engagement . Work Environment influences Innovative Behavior and Work Engagement , does not directly affect performance. Work Environment also does not affect performance through Work Engagement . In addition, the results of this study also show that Innovative Behavior affects employee performance and Work Engagement also affects employee performance. This study recommends improvements in Innovative Behavior and Work Engagement to improve employee performance. Suggested improvements in Innovative Behavior are Root Cause Analysis (RCA) and Failure Mode Affect Analysis (FMEA) training aimed at training nurses to find the root cause of Patient Safety Incidents (PSI) so that they do not recur, there is continuous improvement, better decision making, increasing customer/patient and family trust. Digital Health and Telemedicine aimed at work efficiency. Nursing Project Management aimed at managing resources (time, funds, HR). Suggested improvements in Work Engagement are empowering job design training, namely by determining the appropriate nurse-patient ratio, non-nursing support staff (administration, cleaning) so that nurses focus on care. Coaching training, not blaming, namely if a Patient Safety Incident (PSI) occurs, the approach taken is just culture : system analysis, not directly punishing individuals. This aims to ensure nurses feel psychologically safe . Reflection rituals, activities aimed at reviving nurses' memories of why they chose nursing , will motivate employees to love their jobs more. For companies, the results of this study can be used to improve employee performance, which ultimately impacts company performance.</p> Petrus Mado Kelen, Ari Anggarani Winadi Copyright (c) 2026 Author http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2118 Sat, 28 Feb 2026 00:00:00 +0000 PENGARUH BRAND IMAGE TERHADAP KEPUTUSAN MENGINAP DENGAN E-WOM SEBAGAI VARIABLE MEDIATOR PADA BOUTIQUE HOTEL DI INDONESIA (STUDI KASUS QUBIKA BOUTIQUE HOTEL) https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2126 <p>This study aims to analyze the influence of Brand Image on the Decision to Stay at Qubika Boutique Hotel with Electronic Word of Mouth (e-WOM) as a mediator variable.

The success of digitalization depends not only on the provision of technology, but also on digital literacy, changes in entrepreneurial mindsets, and support for an inclusive ecosystem. This study aims to assess the effectiveness of local government policies in encouraging MSME digitalization, including digital training, assistance in using e-commerce platforms, market access, and digital literacy. A descriptive qualitative approach with a policy study design was used, with data collected through in-depth interviews, field observations, and documentation studies. Analysis was conducted interactively to identify patterns, themes, and relationships between policies and MSME digital implementation, with triangulation of sources, techniques, and time to ensure data validity. The results indicate that local government efforts have yielded positive results through training, assistance, facilitation of e-commerce platforms, and the provision of digital infrastructure. However, MSME digital implementation remains partial, with simple content and minimal data-driven strategies. The success of digitalization is influenced by digital literacy, infrastructure availability, local government capacity, and local socioeconomic and cultural characteristics.

Data were analyzed using validity and reliability tests, classical assumption tests, and multiple linear regression analysis to examine the partial and simultaneous effects between variables. The results show that digital advertising, brand awareness, and online customer reviews have a partial positive and significant effect on consumer purchase intention. Simultaneously, these three variables also have a significant effect on purchase intention. These findings suggest that an integrated digital marketing strategy, through effective digital advertising, building strong brand awareness, and managing customer reviews, can increase consumer purchase intention in the marketplace.</p> Maasyithah Hutagalung, Ratna Yuliastuti, Hasirah, Irma Hakim, Andi Irwin Copyright (c) 2026 Author http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2142 Mon, 02 Mar 2026 00:00:00 +0000 PENGARUH KUALITAS LAPORAN KEUANGAN, PENGENDALIAN INTERNAL DAN PEMANFAATAN DIGITAL ACCOUNTING TERHADAP KEBERLANGSUNGAN USAHA UMKM https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2143 <p>This study aims to analyze the influence of financial report quality, internal control, and the use of digital accounting on the sustainability of MSMEs. MSMEs play a strategic role in the national economy, but still face various challenges in financial management and technology adaptation. The quality of financial reports referring to the standards of the Indonesian Institute of Accountants through SAK EMKM, the implementation of an internal control system based on the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) framework, and the use of digital accounting are seen as important factors in supporting business sustainability. This study uses a quantitative approach with an explanatory design. Primary data were obtained by distributing questionnaires to MSMEs that met the research criteria. The data analysis technique used multiple linear regression to test the effect of independent variables on the dependent variable, both partially and simultaneously. Before testing the hypothesis, validity, reliability, and classical assumption tests were conducted to ensure the feasibility of the research model. The results showed that the quality of financial reports, internal control, and the use of digital accounting, both partially and simultaneously, have a positive and significant effect on the sustainability of MSMEs. These findings confirm that the integration of a quality financial reporting system, effective internal controls, and the implementation of digital technology are strategic factors in increasing the resilience and growth of MSMEs. This research is expected to provide theoretical and practical contributions to the development of sustainable financial governance for MSMEs.</p> Fauzi, Dini Haryati, Endi Rustendi, Ngurah Pandji Mertha Agung Durya, Marsiana Rika Copyright (c) 2026 Author http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2143 Mon, 02 Mar 2026 00:00:00 +0000 PENGARUH CONTENT MARKETING DAN ONLINE CUSTOMER REVIEW TERHADAP KEPUTUSAN PEMBELIAN SEPATU SANDAL CARVIL PADA APLIKASI TIKTOK https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2152 <p>Social media has become a dominant and effective marketing tool. TikTok, originally known as an entertainment medium, has now transformed into a powerful e-commerce channel. PT Carvil Abadi, an Indonesian shoe and sandal brand, had established itself as a market leader, but experienced a significant decline in market share in 2024 and was challenged by other brands. The main objective of this study is to analyze the influence of content marketing and online customer reviews on purchasing decisions for Carvil sandals on the TikTok app. Data collection was conducted quantitatively using a survey method. A total of 100 respondent as TikTok users and having purchased Carvil sandals participated in the study's questionnaire. The data were processed and analyzed using Partial Least Squares–Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM). The findings of this study indicate that content marketing and online customer reviews influence purchasing decisions. This suggests that companies need to improve and promote the quality of digital content and pay attention to the influence of consumer reviews to improve purchasing decisions.</p> Yanuar Bhakti Sultony, Ugy Soebiantoro Copyright (c) 2026 Author http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2152 Wed, 04 Mar 2026 00:00:00 +0000 PENGARUH DISIPLIN KERJA DAN KOMPENSASI TERHADAP KINERJA KARYAWA PT LEBLE BOGA ADIPERKASA https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2153 <p>This research study aims to examine and analyze the influence of work discipline and compensation on employee performance at PT Leble Boga Adiperkasa.

It is the process undertaken by universities to recruit and select prospective new students who meet established criteria. The new student admission process at the LP3I Jakarta Polytechnic, Cikarang Campus, still faces several obstacles that could hamper the efficiency and effectiveness of overall academic activities. Some of these issues include the suboptimal registration system. Some processes, such as physical file collection, document verification, and test scheduling, are still carried out manually. This poses a risk of delays, data entry errors, and lack of accessibility for prospective students from outside the region. In today's digital age, such system limitations can be a barrier to attracting applicants seeking ease and speed in the administrative process. Based on research and analysis conducted on the new student admission process at the LP3I Jakarta Polytechnic, Cikarang Campus, it is systematic and structured, starting with the promotion and outreach stages, registration, administrative selection, interviews, and the announcement of selection results and re-registration. Each stage plays a crucial role in attracting prospective students who meet the institution's criteria. Standard operating procedures (SOPs) have been implemented effectively, although some shortcomings remain, such as delays in data entry or technical issues with the online registration system. This indicates that, while the process is well-organized, regular evaluation and service quality improvement are still needed.</p> Tri Winarto, Siti Nurjanah Copyright (c) 2026 Author http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2154 Wed, 04 Mar 2026 00:00:00 +0000 PENGARUH HOMOPHILY, PHYSICAL ATTRACTIVENESS, DAN CREDIBILITY TERHADAP PURCHASE INTENTION MELALUI PARASOCIAL INTERACTION PADA BEAUTY VLOGGER DI INDONESIA https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2155 <p>The rapid growth of the cosmetic industry in Indonesia has been accompanied by an increasing reliance of young consumers on social media to seek product recommendations. Indonesian beauty vloggers such as Tasya Farasya, Nanda Arsyinta, Jharna Bhagwani, Rachel Goddard, and Abel Cantika have become relevant subjects for this study. This research aims to analyze the influence of Homophily, Physical Attractiveness, and Credibility on Purchase Intention through Parasocial Interaction among beauty vloggers in Indonesia. This study employed a quantitative approach, with data collected through Google Forms distributed to female consumers who actively follow beauty vloggers. A total of 237 respondents participated in this research. Data were analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) with SmartPLS 4. The results indicate that homophily and credibility positively influence parasocial interaction. Furthermore, parasocial interaction, homophily, physical attractiveness, and credibility positively influence purchase intention. Parasocial interaction was also found to mediate the relationship between homophily and credibility on purchase intention. However, physical attractiveness does not influence parasocial interaction, and parasocial interaction does not mediate the relationship between physical attractiveness and purchase intention. Therefore, hypotheses H1, H3, H4, H5, H7, and H10 are supported, while hypotheses H2, H6, and H9 are rejected.</p> Widiya Vita Alfaena, Dendi Anggi Gumilang Copyright (c) 2026 Author http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2155 Wed, 04 Mar 2026 00:00:00 +0000 IKLIM ORGANISASI, KOMPETENSI, KOMITMEN TERHADAP KINERJA PEGAWAI BKHIT MALUKU UTARA https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/1990 <p>The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of organizational climate on employee performance at the Animal, Fish, and Plant Quarantine Center (BKHIT) of North Maluku; to examine the effect of work competence on employee performance at BKHIT North Maluku; and to analyze the role of organizational commitment as an intervening variable in the relationship between organizational climate and work competence and employee performance at BKHIT North Maluku.

The movement of the Indonesian capital market and the sensitivity of the exchange rate to global dynamics provide an important context for understanding the link between key market indicators and individual stock performance, particularly the portfolio of legendary value investor Lo Kheng Hong. The research adopts a quantitative approach using panel data regression. The sample consists of seven companies consistently included in Lo Kheng Hong’s portfolio during the 2021–2024 period, comprising a total of 336 observations. The results show that the LQ45 Index has a significantly negative effect on the exchange rate, meaning that a stronger stock market is followed by the appreciation of the Rupiah. In addition, the LQ45 Index has a significantly positive effect on the stock prices in Lo Kheng Hong’s portfolio, indicating that an increase in the main market index leads to higher stock prices. The exchange rate variable is found to significantly mediate the effect of the LQ45 Index on stock prices, with a negative relationship direction, implying that Rupiah depreciation weakens the portfolio's stock prices. The regression model explains 26.09% of the variation in stock price movements. These findings imply that the dynamics of the leading stock index and exchange rate fluctuations play an important role in determining value stock investment performance, serving as strategic considerations for investors in making investment decisions in the Indonesian capital market.</p> Femro Arifin, Harman Malau, Judith Tagal Gallena Sinaga Copyright (c) 2026 Author http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2146 Fri, 06 Mar 2026 00:00:00 +0000 PENGARUH ORGANIZATIONAL CULTURE, PSYCHOLOGICAL CAPITAL, DAN PERCEIVED ORGANIZATIONAL SUPPORT TERHADAP PERFORMANCE KARYAWAN INDUSTRI MANUFAKTUR DI JABODETABEK MELALUI PERAN JOB SATISFACTION https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2156 <p>This study aims to examine the effect of Organizational Culture (OC), Psychological Capital (PSC), and Perceived Organizational Support (POS) on Job Satisfaction (JS) and its impact on Employee Performance (EP), including the mediating role of JS. The study was conducted on manufacturing sector employees who had worked for at least 6 months and were permanent employees in the Greater Jakarta area, with a total of 175 respondents. Data analysis used the Partial Least Squares-Structural Equation Modelling (PLS-SEM) approach. The results showed that OC had a positive and significant effect on JS, as did POS. Conversely, PSC had no significant effect on JS. In addition, JS had no significant effect on EP. Mediation testing showed that JS was unable to mediate the influence of OC, PSC, or POS on EP. These findings indicate that in the manufacturing context, job satisfaction is more influenced by organizational factor but does not directly encourage improved performance. Therefore, the managerial implications of this study are that employee performance tends to be more determined by operational factors such as production targets, SOP compliance, supervision, shift systems, and technical competence, while job satisfaction is better improved through a corporate culture that provides support and a reward system for employees who successfully complete their work challenges.</p> Ellena Talenta Monica, Dendi Anggi Gumilang Copyright (c) 2026 Author http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2156 Sat, 07 Mar 2026 00:00:00 +0000 ANALISIS PENGARUH MOTIVASI KERJA DAN KOMPENSASI TERHADAP KUALITAS PELAYANAN APARATUR SIPIL NEGARA (ASN) PADA BADAN PENGELOLA PENDAPATAN KEUANGAN DAN ASET DAERAH PROVINSI PAPUA BARAT DAYA https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2157 <p>Human Resource Management (HR) is one of the most important aspects in today's modern era. Human resources are seen as a central factor in achieving organizational goals, both in the private and government sectors. This is in line with the view of Siagian (2015) who states that the success of an organization is not only determined by the availability of natural resources or technology, but rather determined by the quality of human resources who manage and utilize it. Work motivation is the main driver for a person to behave, work hard, and carry out tasks in accordance with the obligations given. The type of research used is qualitative research, the results of initial observations at the Regional Revenue, Finance, and Asset Management Agency (BPPKAD) of Southwest Papua show that there is a variation in motivation among employees. For example, some employees still show low discipline, as seen from the high rate of delays in entering work and the lack of optimal completion of tasks on time. In addition, there are employees who tend to be passive in meetings and coordination activities, so that the workload is more borne by employees who have high motivation. This phenomenon provides an illustration that employee motivation in Southwest Papua still needs to be improved through the right strategies, such as providing performance allowances, training opportunities, and rewards for work achievements.</p> Martha Yulita Yewen, Mervin I.S.

The research was conducted due to indications of low employee performance marked by lack of initiative, delays in task completion, and weak coordination, which are suspected to be related to suboptimal leadership style, motivation, and discipline. This study uses an associative quantitative approach with a survey method. The population and sample in this study were all 64 permanent employees of the Sorong Regency DPRK Secretariat, taken using a census technique. Data were collected using questionnaires and analyzed with multiple linear regression. The results show that: (1) Leadership style has a significant negative effect on employee performance (β = -0.154; p = 0.037), indicating that the applied leadership style is ineffective and even hinders performance; (2) Work motivation does not have a significant effect on employee performance (β = -0.015; p = 0.905), showing that motivation is not a key determining factor in a procedural bureaucratic context; (3) Discipline has a positive and very significant effect on employee performance (β = 0.953; p = 0.000), making it the strongest predictor; (4) Simultaneously, the three variables have a significant effect on employee performance (F value = 106.310; p = 0.000) with a coefficient of determination (R²) of 0.842, meaning that 84.2% of the variation in performance can be explained by these three variables. The implication of this research is the importance of transforming leadership style towards a more participative and supportive approach, strengthening a value-based discipline system, and revitalizing the reward system to enable motivation to be converted into performance. Recommendations are directed at leadership to evaluate leadership practices and improve the work environment to be more conducive to improving organizational performance.</p> La Ode Sarima, Pahmi, Andi Irwan Copyright (c) 2026 Author http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2158 Thu, 12 Mar 2026 00:00:00 +0000 PENGARUH REWARD, WORK-LIFE BALANCE DAN BURNOUT TERHADAP TURNOVER INTENTION PADA KARYAWAN GENERASI MILENIAL (GEN-Y) DI PT PETROSEA TBK. POSB SORONG, KABUPATEN SORONG https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2159 <p>This study aims to analyze the influence of reward, work-life balance, and burnout on turnover intention among millennial employees (Gen-Y) at PT Petrosea Tbk. – POSB Sorong. The research is motivated by the increasing turnover intention among millennials, who currently dominate the company’s workforce composition. Millennials are characterized by a strong need for meaningful recognition, balanced work and personal life, and a work environment that minimizes prolonged stress. When these expectations are not adequately fulfilled, employees may experience burnout, which potentially escalates their intention to leave the organization. High turnover intention can negatively impact organizational productivity, recruitment costs, and overall stability, making it crucial to understand the factors influencing this phenomenon.This research employs a quantitative associative approach to examine the relationship and influence among variables. The population consists of 62 millennial employees, all of whom were selected as the research sample using a purposive sampling technique. Primary data were collected through a questionnaire using a four-point Likert scale and analyzed using multiple linear regression with the assistance of SPSS software. The analysis procedures included validity and reliability testing, classical assumption testing, multiple regression analysis, and hypothesis testing through partial (t-test) and simultaneous (F-test) evaluations to determine the effect of each independent variable on turnover intention.The findings indicate that work-life balance and burnout have a significant partial effect on turnover intention, whereas reward does not exhibit a significant influence. Collectively, the three variables demonstrate a strong simultaneous impact, explaining 73.1% of the variance in turnover intention. This result underscores that psychosocial factors particularly work-life balance and burnout play a more dominant role than material compensation. Accordingly, the study recommends that organizations prioritize policies to enhance work-life balance, implement strategies to mitigate burnout, and provide non-material rewards aligned with millennial employee preferences to strengthen retention.</p> Rokhisatul Muawanah, Wa Ode Likewati, Mervin I.S.

In the context of the Sorong Regency Regional Secretariat, improving employee performance needs to be encouraged through appropriate human resource management, particularly through training, competency development, and work motivation. However, in practice, not all employee development programs have a direct impact on performance, so empirical testing is needed to identify factors that significantly influence employee performance. This study aims to analyze the influence of training, competency, and work motivation on employee performance at the Sorong Regency Regional Secretariat. The research method used is quantitative research using a survey method. The subjects were employees of the Sorong Regency Regional Secretariat. The population in this study was all employees, with a sample of 90 respondents determined using a sampling technique based on respondent availability. Data were collected using a Likert scale questionnaire with a score of 1–4 and analyzed using validity tests, reliability tests, classical assumption tests, and multiple linear regression analysis using SPSS. The results of the study indicate that training, competence, and work motivation simultaneously significantly influence employee performance, with an F-value of 13.654 and a significance level of 0.000 &lt; 0.05, thus accepting hypothesis H4. Partially, training does not significantly influence employee performance (t-value = 1.227; Sig. = 0.223 &gt; 0.05), thus rejecting H1. Competence has a positive and significant effect on employee performance (t-value = 4.691; Sig. = 0.000 &lt; 0.05), thus accepting H2. Meanwhile, work motivation does not significantly influence employee performance (t-value = 0.507; Sig. = 0.614 &gt; 0.05), thus rejecting H3.

One of the widely used digital wallet services in Indonesia is OVO. Although the number of users continues to increase, the actual intention to use the application is influenced by several psychological factors of users. This study aims to analyze the effect of perceived ease of use and perceived usefulness on intention to use OVO with attitude as a mediating variable. This research employed a quantitative approach with an explanatory research design. The sample consisted of 105 respondents who were OVO users in Denpasar selected using purposive sampling. Data were collected through questionnaires using a Likert scale and analyzed using Partial Least Squares–Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM). The results indicate that perceived ease of use significantly influences perceived usefulness. Perceived usefulness significantly affects attitude and intention to use OVO, while attitude also has a significant effect on intention to use OVO. However, perceived ease of use does not significantly affect attitude. The mediation analysis shows that attitude mediates the relationship between perceived usefulness and intention to use OVO but does not mediate the relationship between perceived ease of use and intention. These findings suggest that the perceived benefits of digital payment applications play a key role in encouraging users’ intention to use digital wallets.</p> Pande Gde Bagus Naya Primananda, AA Made Indra Wijaya Kusuma, Ida Bagus Angga Brahmanta Copyright (c) 2026 Author http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2172 Fri, 13 Mar 2026 00:00:00 +0000 PENGARUH PELATIHAN KARYAWAN, PEMBELAJARAN KARYAWAN, DAN PENGEMBANGAN KARYAWAN TERHADAP KINERJA KERJA KARYAWAN DAN BUDAYA ORGANISASI https://plj.ac.id/ojs/index.php/jrlab/article/view/2173 <p>This study was conducted to analyze the influence of training, learning, and employee development on employee performance and organizational culture.
