Abstract

Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) are businesses based on creative industries. With a foundation in creativity, MSMEs can adapt to the current needs of society. MSMEs contribute significantly to the Indonesian economy by absorbing approximately 50% of the workforce. MSMEs have been growing rapidly across Indonesia, particularly in the Special Region of Yogyakarta. In 2019, there were 248,499 MSMEs recorded in this region. The large number of MSMEs in Yogyakarta provides significant employment opportunities and workforce absorption. However, despite the high number of MSMEs, a persistent issue for workers in the region is relatively low wages compared to other areas. The Regional Minimum Wage (UMR) in the Special Region of Yogyakarta was Rp 1,570,923 per month in 2019, making it the lowest in Indonesia. This poses a dilemma for the Yogyakarta regional government. Raising the minimum wage could potentially harm creative industries such as MSMEs, which might struggle with increased operational costs, including labor expenses. The authors seek to explore the correlation between the existence of MSMEs in Yogyakarta and the regional government's policy in determining the minimum wage, considering several aspects: 1) The number of MSMEs in Yogyakarta; 2) The number of workers absorbed by MSMEs; 3) The minimum wage in Yogyakarta; 4) The comparison between MSME revenues and labor costs. On average, MSMEs employ 1-2 workers, with monthly revenues averaging around Rp 4.3 million. This revenue is typically reinvested into operational expenses. If an MSME employs 1-2 workers, it needs to allocate Rp 1.5–3 million per month to pay wages. If the government raises the minimum wage, MSME operational costs would increase, potentially threatening the sustainability of these enterprises.

Abstract

Heart disease and respiratory disorders are major health issues in modern society, with sedentary behavior increasing the risk of heart disease, reducing lung capacity, and causing cardiovascular diseases and obesity. Many workers face limited time for exercise, prompting this study to evaluate and compare the effects of a 60-minute walking exercise and stretching on heart and lung strengthening in Yogyakarta. Using an experimental design, the study targeted workers aged 20-40 years who were healthy, office-based with sedentary behavior, had normal body weight, and were willing to participate in all provided exercises. Data were collected using questionnaires and the Cooper test to measure cardiorespiratory endurance over 12 minutes, and a t-test was conducted to compare pre-test and post-test scores. Results from 30 participants showed that the t-value of 5.448 exceeded the t-table value (df 14) of 1.76131, with a significance level of 0.000 < 0.05. This indicates that both the 60-minute walking exercise and stretching were proven effective in improving heart and lung strength.

Abstract

There is a phenomenon of increasing demand for transparency in non-financial information, moving towards integrated reporting. Companies are increasingly conducting materiality evaluations to identify and prioritize sustainability issues that are most significant for their business and stakeholders. This research aimed to determine the influence of stakeholder pressure, which consists of investors, creditors, suppliers, and consumers, on the issuance of sustainability reports. This study was quantitative in nature. The data source for this research were secondary data derived from the financial reports of manufacturing sector companies from 2014 to 2021. The data were processed using SPSS version 25. The findings reveal that stakeholder pressure, particularly from investors and creditors, has a significantly positive impact on the issuance of sustainability reports. This indicates that investors and creditors play a crucial role in encouraging companies to publish sustainability reports in each accounting period. Meanwhile, the pressure from suppliers and consumers shows no significant effect on sustainability reporting. This is because suppliers generally tend to prioritize operational aspects and daily business relationships over corporate sustainability reporting. Similarly, sustainability reports are not a primary consideration in consumers' decision-making processes.

Abstract

The purpose of this community service is to provide knowledge and skills related to the method of non-destructive testing for welding (NDT). It is expected that all participants will be able to independently carry out non-destructive testing of welding results that will be taught to vocational high school students in Kulon Progo Regency. This community service was conducted through lecture, discussion, simulation, and asssited practice. Those activities were done to make it easier for participants to understand the materials presented. After all the activities were completed, an evaluation was carried out on both the ability and understanding of partners and the evaluation of the activities that have been carried out. The results of this activity show that before participating in the training participants ability related to non-destructive testing of welding results is low. Then, after the program was carried out, there is a significant increase in mastery of the theory and practice of welding testing, ranging from visual testing, penetrant fluids, magnetic tests, to ultrasonic tests.

Abstract

This training program aimed to improve family financial literacy as part of a strategy to strengthen family resilience, improve welfare, and reduce the risk of poverty. The training was initiated because of the lack of skills in managing family finances. Two activities were conducted during the training, namely classical classes and workshops. In classical classes, the spokesperson provided an explanation of the material, while the workshop was about financial planning and management practice. This training was held at the Karangsari Village Hall, Pengasih, Kulon Progo, with 30 participants from the Family Welfare Movement/Pemberdayaan dan Kesejahteraan Keluarga (PKK). The results of the training showed an increase in participant knowledge, as evidenced by an increase in scores from the pre-test to the post-test. The average pre-test score of participants was 57, while the average post-test score was 75, indicating an increase in their understanding of family financial management. The implication of this training is the importance of forming financial literacy cadres among PKK members to become agents of disseminating financial literacy in Karangsari Village.
