Abstract

This study aims to analyze the role of the emping melinjo (melinjo chips) MSME in improving the economy of the Serambingan Village community, Batu Bara Regency, and examine its business practices from an Islamic economic perspective. The study employed a qualitative field research approach through observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation of the predominantly female entrepreneurs, run from generation to generation using simple equipment. The results indicate that the emping melinjo MSME contributes significantly to family income (Rp 300,000–Rp 1,000,000 per month), particularly for female heads of households and laborer/farmer families. The production process remains traditional and dependent on weather, raw material availability, and the physical limitations of the elderly entrepreneurs. From an Islamic economic perspective, these business practices reflect the values ​​of honesty, hard work, and the halal utilization of local resources, which align with the principles of maqasid al-Shariah. The findings also reveal that the income generated from this business contributes to household welfare and the fulfillment of family needs, demonstrating the practical implementation of maqashid al-Shariah. The study recommends strengthening sup port through marketing innovation, improving work ergonomics, and Islamic social finance interventions to increase the capacity and sustainability of MSMEs.

Abstract

This study aims to analyse the implementation of the Social Security Administering Agency (BPJS) Ketenagakerjaan's responsibilities in protecting workers' rights at the state-owned agribusiness company, PTPN IV Panai Jaya. This study used a descriptive qualitative approach with a case study method. Data collection techniques were carried out through in-depth interviews with 6 informants, consisting of employees, company officials, and BPJS officers, as well as internal company observations and documentation. Data analysis was carried out through content analysis, which aims to interpret the meaning of qualitative data systematically and objectively. The results of this study indicated that the implementation of BPJS Ketenagakerjaan’s responsibility in protecting workers' rights at PTPN IV Panai Jaya was still not optimal, especially in reaching non-permanent workers such as casual daily workers and contract workers. Although all permanent employees had received benefits from social security programs such as JKK, JKM, JHT, and JKP, the majority of non-permanent workers had not enjoyed the same protection. This indicates a gap between formal social security coverage and functional realisation in the field. In addition, several permanent workers were also found unable to use their BPJS Ketenagakerjaan insurance because PTPN IV Panai Jaya delayed payment of BPJS contributions.
