Abstract

Human resources are pivotal in driving economic development. However, Indonesia continues to face significant challenges in its labor sector. East Java ranks as the province with the second-highest unemployment rate in the country, highlighting the persistent issue of insufficient labor absorption. Various factors contribute to this phenomenon. This research investigates the impact of economic growth, population dynamics, education levels, and wage rates on labor absorption in East Java 2014 to 2023. Utilizing a quantitative approach, the study relies on secondary data provided by the Badan Pusat Statistik (BPS). The analysis is conducted using panel data regression through a series of steps, including model selection, classical assumption testing, and significance evaluation. The results demonstrate that economic growth, population size, education, and wages significantly and positively influence labor absorption in East Java during the observed period.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the influence of the Human Development Index (HDI) and investment on sustainable economic growth in Indonesia from 2019 to 2023. The research employs a quantitative approach using panel data analysis from 34 provinces in Indonesia. It also includes two control variables—namely the Open Unemployment Rate and Regional Government Expenditure Budget—to assess their effects on the Environmental Quality Index as an indicator of sustainable economic growth. The findings reveal that the HDI, measured through Life Expectancy and Average Years of Schooling, has a positive and significant impact on sustainable economic growth. However, investment—represented by Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) and Domestic Investment (DI)—does not show a significant effect. Interestingly, the Open Unemployment Rate has a positive influence, which contradicts theoretical expectations, while the Regional Government Budget (APBD) has no meaningful impact. These results underscore the importance of improving human resource quality to support sustainable economic development, as well as the need to reassess investment direction and regional budget management.un

Abstract

The Human Development Index (HDI), developed by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), serves as a key indicator for measuring the well-being of a population. Between 2010 and 2022, HDI levels in eight ASEAN countries experienced notable improvements. However, significant disparities remain among developing nations within the region. This study aims to analyze the factors influencing HDI, namely Gross Domestic Product (GDP), unemployment rate, foreign direct investment (FDI), and exchange rate. The research employs an associative approach using panel data regression analysis on eight developing ASEAN countries Indonesia, Malaysia, Vietnam, Thailand, the Philippines, Myanmar, Laos, and Cambodia over a 13-year period from 2010 to 2022. This is a quantitative study applying the Fixed Effect Model (FEM) approach. The findings indicate that GDP and the unemployment rate have a significant positive impact on human development. In addition, both FDI and the exchange rate also exhibit a significant positive influence on HDI. These results highlight the importance of macroeconomic and investment-related factors in promoting human development across developing ASEAN economies.

Abstract

The creative economy contributed IDR 1.53 trillion to the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) in 2024, employing approximately 26.5 million people. However, the average monthly income of freelancers in East Java remained low at IDR 1.4 million in 2024, significantly below the provincial minimum wage (UMP) of IDR 2.1 million (BPS, 2025). This indicates a gap between the potential and the reality of the digital labor market. This study aims to analyze the influence of competence, social capital, market conditions, job characteristics, and digital technology on income variation among freelancers in the Millennial Job Center (MJC) program. A quantitative approach using ordinal logistic regression was applied, based on responses from 288 MJC freelancers across five administrative regions (Bakorwil) in East Java. The analysis reveals that competence and market conditions have a positive and significant effect on freelancer income, while social capital, job characteristics, and technology utilization do not show a significant impact. These findings highlight the importance of strengthening competence and improving freelancer competitiveness through training, cross-sector collaboration, and government policy support.

Abstract

The shift in policy direction from centralization to decentralization requires each region to become self-sufficient by generating more Local Own-Source Revenue (PAD) than the transfer funds provided by the Central Government. This study aims to determine the level of regional financial independence and capability and their impact on inclusive economic growth in Mojokerto Regency for the fiscal years 2014–2023. The data analysis methods used are the regional financial capability ratio and the regional independence ratio, followed by multiple linear regression analysis to assess their impact on inclusive economic growth. The results show that the regional independence ratio of Mojokerto Regency remains in the low category, with an average of 36.70%. Meanwhile, the regional financial capability ratio indicates a moderate result, with an average of 22.27%. The regional independence variable has a positive but insignificant relationship with inclusive economic growth, while the regional financial capability variable has a negative and significant effect on inclusive economic growth.

Abstract

This research investigates the influence of Geopolitical Risk (GPR), Economic Policy Uncertainty (EPU), the Volatility Index (VIX), and Brent oil prices on the Jakarta Composite Index (JCI) in Indonesia. By incorporating all major global uncertainty factors into a single model, this study bridges a gap in the existing literature, which often analyzes these variables separately. The research employs the Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) model using monthly data from 2018 to 2024 to capture both short-run and long-run dynamics between the variables. The empirical results reveal that Brent oil prices exhibit a significant positive relationship with the JCI, implying that higher oil prices may enhance market sentiment and investment value in resource-dependent economies. Conversely, the VIX demonstrates a strong and significant negative relationship with the JCI, suggesting that rising global market volatility suppresses investor confidence and capital inflows. However, neither geopolitical risk nor economic policy uncertainty shows a statistically significant impact on the JCI. These findings provide valuable insights for policymakers and investors, emphasizing the relative resilience of the Indonesian stock market amid global financial and political turbulence.

Abstract

This study investigates the phenomenon of turnover intention among baristas working in coffee shops in Malang City, Indonesia. Adopting a qualitative descriptive approach, data were collected through semi-structured interviews with eight baristas employed across seven different coffee shops. The findings highlight four dominant factors influencing turnover intention: work-life balance, compensation, job satisfaction, and employment status. Conflicts between academic and professional responsibilities, limited and inconsistent compensation, as well as the absence of clear career advancement opportunities, were found to heighten turnover intentions. Conversely, intrinsic job satisfaction derived from passion for coffee and customer interaction provided mitigating effects. The study contributes to the literature by offering qualitative insights into turnover intention in the Indonesian context, while also providing practical recommendations for coffee shop managers to reduce turnover.

Abstract

An increase in unemployment characterizes a suboptimal level of labor absorption in an economy. This situation will bring serious problems to the economy and cause other problems. This study aims to determine the effect of GRDP, wages, human resource quality, and population on labor absorption in regencies/cities in East Java. This study uses descriptive quantitative analysis with panel data regression analysis tools. Data sourced from the BPS for the period 2017-2023 and consisting of 38 regencies/cities in East Java. The results of the study indicate that GRDP has a significant and positive effect on labor absorption, human resource quality has a significant and positive effect on labor absorption, and population has a significant and positive effect on labor absorption. Meanwhile, wages have a negative and insignificant effect on labor absorption, so wages will not influence labor absorption. Then, GRDP, wages, human resource quality, and population simultaneously have an impact on labor absorption in regencies/cities in East Java province.
