Abstract

Background. PT SMS produces bottled drinking water (amdk) in gallons and cups with Vit and Forme brands for gallon packaging and Airnes, Forma, and OK Oce brands in cup packaging. In identifying the problem at PT SMS, it was found that the work system is not well-designed and lacks ergonomics at several workstations, which has an impact on achieving less than optimal daily productivity. The output per work shift set by the company is 2,100 gallons and 3,150 boxes for cup packaging, but in fact, it can only produce approximately 2,050 gallons and 3,000 boxes. Aim. Analyze the factors that cause the work system to be less effective and less ergonomic. The formulation of work system factors encompasses physical work environment factors, equipment, infrastructure, machinery, workload factors, and organisational factors. Methods. The Macro Ergonomic Analysis and Design (MEAD) method is used to identify factors that affect the work system and then implement improvements and design changes based on the identified factors. Results. Physical work environment factors and organisational factors are problems within the work system at PT SMS, as the workspace designated for the production workflow lacks ergonomic support for employees' postures while working, and task management is inadequate. The machinery has not been crafted based on the anthropometric measurements of the workers. Oversight is absent for the work being done, and the standard time required for the production process has yet to be established. So that it increases productivity per work shift at PT. SMS is not optimal and experiences over time. Conclusions. Redesign of physical work environment facilities, scheduling of rest periods, and organisational factors through supervision from PT SMS resulted in output per shift meeting the standards set by the company.. Implication. The application of MEAD can identify factors that cause suboptimal productivity. Redesigning ergonomic physical work environment facilities, scheduling rest periods, and supervisory organisational factors within the company have an impact on optimising productivity, as measured by the output per shift set by the company

Abstract

Background, Palembang City South Sumatera of Indonesia faces serious waste challenges, generating about 983-1,200 tons daily, 35% plastic and under 10% recycled. Improper disposal drives methane emissions and climate impacts. This study explores low-cost waste-to-energy (WtE) strategies to cut emissions, support a circular economy, and empower communities through sustainable, participatory waste management. Aim, This study analyzes Palembang’s waste generation and GHG emissions to support sustainable and efficient waste management strategies. Methods, This study used mixed methods to assess Palembang’s waste management and emissions, conducted from July-October 2025, data from key stakeholders were analyzed using IPCC Tier 1 Guidelines to compare baseline and intervention scenarios for sustainable community solutions. Results, The analysis revealed that Palembang City South Sumatera of Indonesia generates approximately 1,000 tons of municipal solid waste per day, with organic waste (56%) and plastic waste (24%) as the dominant fractions. Current waste treatment processes, mainly open dumping and limited composting, result in an estimated carbon emission of 420-460 tons CO₂-eq per day. Scenario modeling indicated that implementing a low-cost waste-to-energy (WtE) system and community-based segregation programs could reduce emissions by up to 55%, while generating additional energy potential of 7-9 MWh per day. These findings demonstrate the significant potential of an integrated waste management approach to simultaneously mitigate greenhouse gas emissions and enhance energy recovery in Palembang. Conclusions, Palembang generates 983-1,200 tons of waste daily, mostly food (40.8%) and plastic (20.4%), with 60% sent to Sukawinatan and 40% to Kramasan landfills. Management still relies on open dumping, causing methane emissions of 2,352.9 tons (65,888.2 tons CO₂-eq) valued at about IDR 1.97 trillion. These results underscore the need for integrated, sustainable waste-to-energy (WtE) solutions. Implication, The study guides policymakers in developing low-cost, sustainable waste management through community-based waste-to-energy (WtE) initiatives that reduce emissions and support a circular, resilient city.

Abstract

Background. The construction industry plays a strategic role in Indonesia’s economic development, particularly through State-Owned Enterprises (SOEs) that are mandated to deliver national infrastructure projects. Despite their importance, Indonesian construction SOEs continue to face persistent challenges, including low productivity, cost overruns, schedule delays, bureaucratic complexity, and limited organizational agility. Lean Management has been widely recognized as a practical approach to improving efficiency and reducing waste; however, its application in the construction sector has predominantly focused on project-level operations rather than organizational-level readiness. Aims. This study aims to identify the key factors influencing the successful implementation of Lean Management in Indonesian construction SOEs and to assess how these factors interact in determining organizational readiness. Methods. A quantitative research design was employed, with a structured survey administered to 246–250 respondents from six major Indonesian construction SOEs. The study adopts the Lean Construction Maturity Model (LCMM), consisting of 11 main attributes: lean leadership, customer focus, organizational culture, competency, process and tools, change management, work environment, business results, and learning and competency development. Data were analyzed using linear regression to examine relationships among influencing factors and their contribution to Lean Management readiness. Result. The findings are expected to yield a Lean Management Implementation Readiness Index that provides a comprehensive measure of organizational preparedness and highlights critical interdependencies among factors. Conclusion. The study contributes theoretically by extending lean management research to the organizational level within construction SOEs and practically by offering a diagnostic tool to support strategic decision-making, policy formulation, and performance improvement in Indonesia’s construction sector.

Abstract

Background. In micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) that make pressure milkfish, the majority still use manual pressure cookers, with the pressure showing that the milkfish is cracked, making it less attractive in terms of performance and appearance. Aims. Therefore, the purpose of this research is to design a presto milkfish pot equipped with a filter. The design uses AutoCAD for 2D drawings and SolidWorks software 2023 for 3D. The results obtained have been used to design pressure-cooker equipment with a filter. Methods. The results of the design of pressure cooker equipment using filters with varying pan thicknesses are for Von Mises stress, displacement (shift)/elongation, strain/strain, and Safety Factor (SF). Result. The analysis of all design results was obtained: (a). The results of the Von Mises stress simulation, with varying pressure cooker thickness, show that the wall thickness is directly proportional to the maximum Von Mises stress. So the wall of the pressure cooker with the greatest thickness (3mm) has the maximum voltage value of Von Mises, also the greatest (978.0 MPa), (b).  The results of the pressure cooker elongation/displacement simulation with varying pressure cooker thickness showed that thickness variation was not significant for elongation/displacement. The average elongation/displacement is 0.008468 mm; the result is quite small, indicating that the thickness of the pan is not related to the elongation of the pressure cooker material at a break or a certain limit (c). The results of the pressure cooker strain simulation with the pressure cooker thickness variation, with a value of 0.004613, indicate that the pressure cooker thickness variation is not significant to the pressure cooker strain, because the strain obtained does not cause a change in the shape of the pressure cooker equipment, even though the pressure cooker wall has a different thickness Conclusion. Safety Factor simulation results/ Factor of Safety (FS) pressure cookers with pressure cooker thickness variations it appears that for the pressure cooker thickness variation, all have an acceptable FS, because the value exceeds the value of 1.

Abstract

Background. The marriage of a family with a physical disability, both husband and wife or one of them with a physical disability, is not as easy as a family in a normal married condition. The foundation must be religion, because in Islam, marriage is not only a civil contract but also a matter of worship. The Quran describes the bond between husband and wife as the most sacred and strongest bond. Marriage between a man and a woman and uniting to live as husband and wife in the bond of marriage is one of the characteristics of man since he was first created. Method. The method was carried out using 10 respondents from families with physical disabilities who filled out the questionnaire, including (1) how many years they have been married, (2) how communication has occurred so far, and (3) how communication and support between married couples facilitate disability conditions. Questionnaire fill-ins were processed using SPSS. Conclusion. In realizing a harmonious family despite its limitations, it is not an excuse not to fulfill its roles and obligations as a husband and a wife. It is essential to maintain communication with your partner, accept each other, and work together effectively in carrying out daily routines. Implications. The practical implication is that married couples with disabilities can live in harmony and carry out their roles and obligations as husband and wife well, even with their limitations.
