Abstract

This article aims to determine the significance of problems related to the use of life insurance policies as credit collateral in terms of practice, regulation, and theory. This study focuses on the legal position of life insurance policies as credit collateral and the mechanism and banking use of life insurance policies as credit collateral in banking institutions at PT. Allianz Medan. This study uses Empirical Normative Juridical Legal Research based on interviews as support. In the Indonesian legal system, life insurance policies can be used as collateral to obtain credit lines from such institutions. General provisions on collateral are contained in the Civil Code (KUHPerdata), especially in Book II concerning property and property rights, and in Law Number 40 of 2014 concerning Insurance, which regulates the basic principles, rights, and obligations of the parties in insurance agreements. The mechanism for utilizing life insurance policies as credit collateral in banking institutions studied at PT. Allianz Medan demonstrates a legitimate and structured practice that adheres to national legal provisions, such as the Civil Code, Fiduciary Guarantee Law, and Insurance Law. By transferring the right to receive policy benefits to the bank as collateral, either by replacing the beneficiary or the fiduciary, this practice provides legal certainty for creditors and protection from risk for debtors.

Abstract

The wage disparity between recruited workers and assigned employees who bear equivalent workloads and responsibilities represents a serious issue in industrial relations in Indonesia. Recruitment workers often receive wages below the City Minimum Wage and experience discrimination in the provision of allowances and other normative rights, as occurred in the case of PT. Prima Multi Terminal. In this case, recruitment workers received Merit Salaries below the 2024 Medan City Minimum Wage, as well as unequal position allowances and leave entitlements compared to assigned employees, despite performing the same job functions. This condition contradicts the principle of justice and the principle of non-discrimination as stated in Article 6 of Law Number 13 of 2003 concerning Manpower and the provisions in Government Regulation Number 36 of 2021 in conjunction with Government Regulation Number 51 of 2023 concerning wages. This study aims to analyze the form of legal protection for recruitment workers who experience wage imbalance based on Decision No. 99/Pdt. Sus-PHI/2024/PN Mdn. The research method used was the normative legal method through a literature study approach and juridical analysis of the court decision. The results showed that the court partially granted the lawsuit and ordered the equalization of salaries and allowances. Therefore, the government needs to strengthen regulations, the labor inspection system, and improve legal education for workers.

Abstract

The security of customer funds in banks is often problematic due to the actions of bank employees themselves, where bank employees directly involved with customer funds commit acts of embezzlement in their positions by embezzling customer funds. The problem formulated in this study is as follows: What are the legal regulations regarding Banking Crimes that make false records of Customer Deposit Funds according to the applicable laws and regulations in Indonesia? and What are the legal considerations of the Judge at the Medan District Court in imposing criminal sanctions on perpetrators of the crime of false records Case Number: 2644 / Pid.B / 2021 / PN Mdn? This study aims to discuss the criminal liability of perpetrators of false record crimes. The type of research used in this study uses normative legal research. The data collection techniques used are library research and field research. The data analysis conducted in this study was qualitative. The results of the study found that criminal liability for bank employees who commit the crime of false recording can be punished using the provisions of Article 49, paragraph (1) of the Republic of Indonesia Law Number 10 of 1998 concerning Amendments to Law Number 7 of 1992 concerning Banking. The provisions of Article 49 of the Banking Law contain legal certainty because this article has been specifically designed for the crime of false recording, and the provisions of the Article expressly regulate the prohibition of false recording and provide threats of criminal sanctions for violators. The results of the analysis of Decision Number: 2644 / Pid.B / 2021 / PN Mdn concluded that the criminal sentence imposed on the Defendant by the Medan District Court was 5 (five) years in prison and a fine of IDR 10,000,000,000.00 (ten billion rupiah) with the provision that if the fine is not paid, it will be replaced with charges for 4 (four) months. According to the author, this sentence contains the principle of law enforcement and is in accordance with the provisions of Article 49 of the Banking Law.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the application of the ultimum remedium principle to discretionary actions by state officials that result in financial losses to the state. In practice, the law enforcement of discretionary actions often gives rise to debates between protecting the freedom of administrative decision-making and enforcing criminal law within the framework of corruption eradication. This study uses a normative legal method with a statute, conceptual, and case study approach, which allows for a comprehensive analysis of the applicable legal framework and its implementation practices. The results show that the application of the ultimum remedium principle is in line with the principle of due process of law and the protection of legitimate discretion, as long as it meets the elements of compliance with procedures, is based on good faith, and is not motivated by self-enrichment or other motives. Thus, criminal law is truly applied as a means of last resort, achieving a balance between protecting public officials with integrity and effective law enforcement to realize good governance, where policy innovation and courage to make decisions are protected, without neglecting accountability and integrity in government administration.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze unlawful acts in claims and the unauthorized installation of Sita signs. This study focuses on Decision No. 966/Pdt. G/2024/PN Medan, which involves a dispute between the Plaintiff and the Defendant regarding land rights. In this case, the Defendant installed a sita sign without permission from the Plaintiff, resulting in loss and a violation of ownership rights. To address this issue, references are made to agrarian law theories and relevant regulations. Data were collected through interviews with landowners, lawyers, and government officials, legal document analysis, and observations at the dispute location. The obtained data were analyzed qualitatively to understand the legal practices occurring, and the results of the study indicate that the defendant’s actions can be categorized as unlawful acts in accordance with Article 1365 of the Civil Code, which regulates liability for losses arising from unlawful acts.

Abstract

The objective of this research is to analyze the legal aspects concerning the online sale of homemade food and beverage products without distribution permits from the Indonesian National Agency of Drug and Food Control (BPOM), particularly in the city of Medan. This study employs a mixed legal research method, combining normative juridical and empirical approaches by reviewing relevant legislation and conducting interviews with small-scale business owners, BPOM officials, and representatives of the Medan Health Department. The findings indicate that the majority of homemade food and beverage entrepreneurs do not possess BPOM distribution permits due to a lack of understanding, limited financial resources, and the belief that such permits are unnecessary. Consequently, consumers are vulnerable to the safety of the products they consume. The state, through BPOM and local governments, must play an active role in providing both preventive and repressive legal protection, as well as in offering education and assistance to entrepreneurs to ensure the protection of consumer rights.

Abstract

The "Trash to Cash: Jago Atur Uang, Jago Rawat Bumi" program, conducted at SDN 008 Waru, Penajam Paser Utara Regency, East Kalimantan, Indonesia, aimed to enhance sixth-grade students’ understanding of waste management and financial literacy through an interactive educational intervention. Targeting 30 students aged 11–12 years, the program integrated the eco-financial concept, transforming inorganic waste, such as plastic bottles and cardboard, into economic assets via waste banks, with proceeds encouraging savings habits. Employing an action research approach, the intervention utilized presentations, the "Tebak Sampah" game, and a waste value calculation quiz. The results demonstrated a significant increase in waste classification knowledge (from 40% to 85% accuracy), with 95% of students recognizing the economic value of recyclables and 80% accurately calculating waste-derived income. Qualitative findings indicated high engagement and intention to collect recyclables, suggesting potential behavioral changes toward sustainability. Challenges, including time constraints and classroom management, did not diminish the program’s success in achieving its goals. This study contributes a novel framework for integrating environmental and financial education, offering a replicable model for primary schools to support the sustainable development goals.

Abstract

Adolescence is a critical developmental stage marked by physical, emotional, and social transitions, during which conformity to peer norms frequently emerges as a dominant behavioral pattern. While moderate conformity can foster social skills and prosocial behavior, excessive conformity often undermines adolescents’ self-concept and autonomy, leading to negative outcomes, such as bullying, substance use, and diminished academic achievement. This study examined the effectiveness of assertive training techniques in mitigating negative conformity behavior among adolescents. Employing a qualitative literature review, 145 articles published between 2019 and 2024 were initially identified through Google Scholar, with eight articles meeting the inclusion criteria for an in-depth analysis. The findings consistently reveal that assertive training techniques enhance adolescents’ ability to resist peer pressure, improve interpersonal communication, strengthen self-concept, and reduce dependency on social approval. The review highlights three critical factors shaping the success of assertive training interventions: (1) individual factors, such as self-confidence and interpersonal skills; (2) environmental factors, including supportive group dynamics in counselling settings; and (3) methodological factors, such as structured role-play, simulations, and staged training implementation. Complementary approaches, such as sociodrama, have also been found to be effective in addressing conformity by fostering awareness of group dynamics. Despite promising outcomes, the reviewed studies faced methodological limitations, including small sample sizes and limited control group comparisons. This study underscores the potential of assertive training as a preventive and corrective counselling strategy to address adolescent conformity, while also calling for future research employing more rigorous experimental designs to strengthen the empirical evidence and broaden practical applications in educational and counselling contexts.

Abstract

The deaf community in Indonesia continues to face psychosocial challenges that extend beyond communication barriers, including low self-esteem, limited social participation, and social stigma. While many Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) initiatives focus on economic outcomes, little is known about their impact on psychosocial well-being. This study explores the psychosocial transformation experienced by members of the Deaf community through the PERINTIS Program, a CSR initiative of PT. Kilang Pertamina International RU VI Balongan, Indonesia. Using a qualitative case study approach, data were collected through in-depth interviews with the program participants, parents, and the implementation team. A three-stage thematic analysis (open, axial, and selective coding) was conducted. The findings indicate that prior to joining the program, the participants often showed signs of withdrawal, low confidence, and emotional instability. After engaging in barista training and mentoring within an inclusive community space, the participants reported increased confidence, stronger social relationships, improved emotional regulation, and greater motivation for the future. These changes were facilitated by a strengths-based, gradual empowerment process supported by mentors and an inclusive social environment. This study highlights the importance of integrating psychosocial dimensions into CSR initiatives, showing that empowerment goes beyond technical skill-building to include identity reconstruction and social recognition. The results contribute to disability studies, social work practice, and CSR policy and suggest that similar community-based models may foster more sustainable and inclusive empowerment.
