Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic has led to mass layoffs in companies worldwide, including Indonesia, which has been further exacerbated by the global recession in 2023. These mass layoffs not only impact the mental well-being of affected employees but also the psychological state of those still employed in related companies. Previous studies have shown that the uncertain employment situation creates feelings of worry, demotivation, difficulty sleeping, and unexplained anger. This study focuses on the importance of self-compassion, which encourages individuals to accept their imperfections and negative emotions without drowning in them. The research using Spearman’s correlation, conducted in Jakarta with a sample size of 101 active employees whose companies have recently carried out mass layoffs, found a significant positive relationship between self-compassion and psychological well-being of employees in companies that have terminated employment (r = 0.821, p < 0.05). The study suggests that self-compassion can be an adaptive strategy to promote well-being and positive psychological functioning during difficult times. Further research could explore different data collection techniques and study subjects.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the contributions of job demands and job resources to the psychological well-being of creative agency workers. Creative agencies often require longer working hours and higher workloads to meet customer demands. However, the resources provided by companies to support workers sometimes do not adequately compensate for these demands, which can negatively impact workers' psychological well-being. Despite this, creative agencies depend heavily on their workers to achieve company targets, and the psychological well-being of these workers plays a crucial role in their ability to develop their potential and function optimally. It is predicted that adequate job resources to meet job demands will enhance the psychological functioning of workers. This research utilized quantitative methods and involved 106 creative agency workers in Jakarta, selected through convenience sampling. The instruments used for measurement were the Questionnaire sur les Ressources et Contraintes Professionnelles and the Psychological Well-Being Scale. The results of multiple regression analysis indicated that job demands and job resources significantly contribute to the psychological well-being of creative agency workers. Specifically, job demands have a negative impact on psychological well-being, whereas job resources have a positive impact. Therefore, even though the work is demanding, sufficient resources can help maintain the psychological well-being of workers.

Abstract

The impact of the Covid-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on changes in the work environment, which has shifted from traditional to digital. Many companies have started implementing remote work systems (telecommuting). The telecommuting work system cause employees to be able to adapt to new work rhythms and face all other obstacles. The impact of the pandemic presents a challenge for companies in maintaining employee engagement to survive in an uncertain environment. Therefore, this study aims to test occupational self-efficacy's predictive power on employees' work engagement who work telecommuting during the Covid-19 pandemic. This study uses a quantitative approach with simple linear regression statistical analysis. In this study, 130 participants were found as active employees who worked at least two years in companies, had experience telecommuting during the pandemic, and were located in JABODETABEK. The results of simple linear regression showed that occupational self-efficacy was significantly able to predict 43.5% of the variance of work engagement (R2= 0.435, F (1, 128) = 98.698, p < 0.001).

Abstract

One of the major problems in Indonesia is the high unemployment rate, including among undergraduates. In 2023, the undergraduate unemployment rate was approximately 958,000, or 12% of the total rate. Several factors affect an individual's ability to get a job. One of them is career adaptability, the process of achieving career goals that needs to be developed since undergoing education, especially in final-year students. However, little effort has been made to improve students' career adaptability, such as academic self-efficacy. The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between academic self-efficacy and career adaptability in final-year students in Jakarta. A correlational quantitative method was applied to 121 final-year students in Jakarta obtained through convenience sampling techniques. The measuring tool used to measure academic self-efficacy is The Academic Self-Efficacy Scale (TASES) which has gone through a validity test with a corrected-item total correlation score in the range of .384-.602 and Cronbach's alpha reliability score of .885. Meanwhile, the measuring tool for career adaptability is the Career Adapt-Abilities Scale (CAAS) with validity test results in the range of .322-.652 and a reliability score of .905. Based on the results of the correlation test with Spearman's correlation, there was a significant positive relationship between academic self-efficacy and career adaptability in final-year students in Jakarta, with a Spearman's Rho score of .636, p-value < .01. It can be concluded that the higher the academic self-efficacy, the higher the career adaptability of final-year students. Self-confidence in academic ability helps individuals prepare for future careers.
