Abstract

Indonesia’s remote regions face persistent logistical challenges due to geographic fragmentation, infrastructure deficits, and limited digital adoption. This study examines the determinants of logistics distribution efficiency in Alor District, East Nusa Tenggara, using survey data from 150 respondents including logistics operators, government officials, and recipients. Descriptive and inferential analyses, including correlation and multiple linear regression, reveal that logistics information technology is the most influential factor (r = 0.71; β = 0.35), followed by infrastructure quality (r = 0.62; β = 0.28) and supply chain coordination (r = 0.55; β = 0.22), all significant at p < 0.05. These findings highlight the critical role of digital transformation in improving distribution efficiency in archipelagic regions. Practical recommendations include expanding internet connectivity in rural islands, providing digital literacy training for logistics actors, and developing integrated coordination platforms at the district level. Limitations of this study include reliance on self-reported data, potential non-response bias, and the focus on a single district, which may affect generalizability. Future research should incorporate longitudinal data and cross-district comparisons to strengthen evidence on logistics innovation in remote areas.

Abstract

This study examines the implementation of green logistics strategies in freight transportation at Soekarno Hatta Port, Makassar. Data were collected over three months (July–September 2024) through in-depth interviews with 15 informants, participatory observation, and document analysis. Informants represented port authorities, logistics operators, truck drivers, government officials, and academics. Findings show that 9 of 15 informants at managerial level demonstrated high awareness of green logistics, while most operational staff (6 drivers and dock operators) had limited knowledge. Existing initiatives include optimized truck scheduling to reduce idle time and partial electrification of cargo handling equipment. However, barriers such as the lack of electric vehicle infrastructure, absence of regional regulations, and limited sustainability training hinder broader adoption. The study recommends integrating digital emission monitoring, introducing regional fiscal incentives, and developing targeted training programs. By addressing these gaps, Soekarno Hatta Port could become a pioneering model for sustainable logistics in Eastern Indonesia. This research contributes empirically to the discourse on port sustainability by providing localized insights applicable to other regional ports.

Abstract

Background: The work environment is a critical determinant of employee performance, particularly in air cargo logistics where accuracy, speed, and consistency are essential. Despite the increasing focus on technological and automation strategies, environmental conditions remain relatively underexplored. Objective: This study aims to examine the influence of workplace environmental factors on employee performance in the warehouse division of PT Aerojasa Cargo, Jakarta. Method: A quantitative cross-sectional survey was conducted with 55 respondents selected through stratified random sampling. Data were collected using a structured Likert-scale questionnaire measuring five environmental factors (cleanliness, lighting, air circulation, workspace layout, and team collaboration) and five dimensions of performance (accuracy, timeliness, quality, quantity, and neatness). The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, Pearson correlation, and multiple linear regression. Results: The findings reveal that 69.9% of the variance in employee performance is explained by workplace environmental conditions (R² = 0.699; p < 0.01). Cleanliness and team collaboration emerged as the strongest predictors across all performance dimensions, while lighting and workspace layout also showed significant contributions. Conclusion: A conducive work environment plays a pivotal role in enhancing warehouse employee performance. Practical implications include continuous investment in cleanliness programs, ergonomic workspace redesign, and participatory evaluation mechanisms. Future research should adopt multi-site and longitudinal approaches to strengthen generalizability.
