THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE PROMOTION MIX AND THE COMPANY'S BRAND IDENTITY WITH CUSTOMER SATISFACTION AT PT. INO WANGSA BINJAI

Budi, Ivan Benedict Tambunan
Abstract: This study aims to deepen the understanding of the contribution of promotion and branding to increasing customer satisfaction at PT. Ino Wangsa Binjai. The study used primary data with a population of 300 buyers, and 75&#8230; respondents were selected as samples through calculations using the Slovin formula. The analysis techniques applied were quantitative, including validity tests, reliability, classical assumptions, simple linear regression, and hypothesis testing through t-tests and coefficients of determination (R²). Based on the analysis results, the promotional mix variable (E_Prmsi) obtained a t-count value of -1.824 with a significance level of 0.072 (> 0.05), while the t-table was 1.99346. Because the t-count is smaller than the t-table, it can be concluded that the promotional mix does not have a significant effect on customer satisfaction. In addition, a negative t-value indicates that the direction of the relationship between the promotional mix and customer satisfaction is not in line. Conversely, the partial test shows that the company's brand variable has a significant effect on customer satisfaction with a significance value of 0.00 (< 0.05). Therefore, the first hypothesis (H1) is declared accepted. From the results of the determination coefficient test, the R Square value is 0.495, which indicates that 49.5% of changes in customer satisfaction can be explained by the company's promotional mix and brand factors, while the remaining 50.5% is influenced by other variables not examined in this study. As a recommendation, the management of PT. Ino Wangsa Binjai, especially the branch manager, is advised to implement a more cost-effective, efficient, and targeted promotional strategy, as well as utilizing social media such as Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and print media such as newspapers to convey promotional information more effectively.

THE IMPACT OF STRESS AND WORK MOTIVATION ON THE PERFORMANCE OF EMPLOYEES IN THE SIANTAR CITY MANPOWER DEPARTMENT

Binur Pretty Napitupulu, Haervi Yunira
Abstract: Work stress and motivation are two factors that can influence the increase or decrease in employee performance. This study aims to determine and analyze the effect of work stress and work motivation on employee performance&#8230; ce at the Siantar City Manpower Office. The focus of the study is limited to two independent variables, namely work stress and work motivation, and one dependent variable, namely employee performance. The formulation of the problem raised is whether work stress and work motivation affect employee performance. The population in this study amounted to 58 people who were also used as samples. The approach used is quantitative, with data collection through questionnaires and using secondary data. The data analysis technique used is multiple linear regression, with hypothesis testing through the t-test (partial), F-test (simultaneous), and the Coefficient of Determination (R²). The results of the study show a regression model Y = 0.550 + 0.447X₁ + 0.398X₂, where X₁ is work stress and X₂ is work motivation. Partially, work stress has a significant effect on employee performance with a significance value of 0.001 (<0.05) and a t-count of 3.543 (> t-table 1.673). Work motivation also shows a partial significant effect with a significance value of 0.002 (<0.05) and a t-count of 3.225 (> t-table 1.673). Simultaneously, both variables have a significant effect on employee performance, with a significance value of 0.000 (<0.05) and an F-count of 34.156 (> F-table 3.17). The coefficient of determination (R²) of 0.554 indicates that 55.4% of the variation in employee performance is influenced by work stress and work motivation, while the remaining 44.6% is influenced by other factors outside this study. Thus, the relationship between work stress, work motivation, and employee performance is quite strong but not dominant.

Mega Wiliandani, Chon Cho Reynols Manday
Abstract: This study was conducted to analyze the influence of job satisfaction and work climate on employee morale at the Jakarta City Cooperatives and SMEs Office. The method used in this study was a sampling method, with 35 respondents&#8230; pondents taken from the relevant population. Based on the results of the F test, the F count value was 14.405 which was greater than the F table of 3.285, with a significance of 0.000 which was smaller than the significance level of 0.05. This indicates that the null hypothesis (H0) is rejected and the alternative hypothesis (H1) is accepted, which means that job satisfaction and work climate simultaneously have a significant effect on employee morale. From the results of the t test, it is known that the t count value for job satisfaction is 3.181, greater than the t table of 1.692, with a significance level of 0.003 <0.05, which indicates a significant effect on work morale. Meanwhile, the work climate variable also showed a significant influence, with a calculated t value of 4.363 > t table 1.692 and a significance level of 0.000. The Adjusted R Square value of 0.441 indicates that 44.1% of the variation in work morale can be explained by the job satisfaction and work climate variables. The remaining 55.9% is influenced by other factors outside this research model.

Perlindungan Hukum Para Pihak dalam Perjanjian Elektronik Menurut Hukum Perdata Indonesia

Nawaskoro, Hardito, Luthfiyyah Amalina Husna
Abstract: Advances in information and communication technology have spurred substantial changes in legal transaction procedures in Indonesia, primarily through the utilization of electronic agreements. Agreements that were previously&#8230; sly made in traditional paper formats are now frequently conducted digitally, raising legal concerns regarding their legality, validity, evidence, and legal protection for the involved parties, particularly consumers. Although electronic agreements are normatively recognized in the Civil Code (KUHP) and the Law on Electronic Information and Transactions, practical implementation issues persist, leading to legal uncertainty. This research employs a normative legal methodology utilizing statutory, conceptual, and comparative approaches. Data was obtained through a literature review of primary, secondary, and tertiary legal sources related to electronic agreements and civil legal protection. Qualitative descriptive analysis was conducted to investigate the legal status of electronic agreements and the legal protection available for the parties within the Indonesian legal framework. The discussion results indicate that electronic agreements possess legal validity and binding force equivalent to traditional agreements, provided they meet the criteria for a valid agreement as outlined in Article 1320 of the Civil Code and the provisions of the Information Technology Law. Legal protection in electronic agreements encompasses legal certainty, the recognition of electronic document and signature evidence, and consumer protection against detrimental standard clauses. Nevertheless, challenges remain in establishing party identification, ensuring the integrity of digital contracts, and addressing power imbalances between commercial entities and consumers. This study concludes that while electronic agreements are legally recognized under Indonesian civil law, enhancing legal protection requires strengthened regulations, consistent law enforcement, and improved legal and digital literacy among the public to ensure secure, fair, and equitable electronic transactions.  

THE AUTHORITY OF A NOTARIAL DEED COPY THAT UNDERTAKES CORRECTIONS DUE TO WRITING AND/OR TYPING ERRORS

Fandy Purnama, I Wayan Wesna Astara, Ida Bagus Agung Putra Santika
Abstract: The ambiguity of the norms in Article 51 of the Law raises issues regarding the validity of copies of corrected deeds and the liability of Notaries towards the parties involved. This study aims to analyze the legal status&#8230; s of the corrected deed copies and the forms of Notaries' responsibility for errors that occur. The research method used is normative juridical legal research with legislative and conceptual approaches, through descriptive qualitative analysis of primary and secondary legal materials. Research findings indicate that corrections to copies of deeds remain valid and equivalent to the deed minutes as long as the errors are administrative in nature and the corrections are made in accordance with regulations, so they do not alter the substance of the deed. However, if corrections are made not in accordance with the UUJN procedures or result in substantial differences with the minutes, then the copy of the deed may be downgraded to a private deed and categorized as a legally defective deed. Notaries are liable in civil, administrative, criminal, and ethical terms, because such negligence constitutes an unlawful act under the concept of liability. In conclusion, corrections to deed copies remain valid as long as they do not change the substance and are carried out according to procedure, while Notaries are obliged to bear legal responsibility for any typing or writing errors arising from their negligence.

ANALISIS KEBERHASILAN DAN KEGAGALAN BUKTI FORENSIK DIGITALDALAM SISTEM PERADILAN INDONESIA

Faizul Idris, Hendratna Mutaqin
Abstract: Perkembangan teknologi informasi telah mengubah secara fundamental sistem pembuktian dalam peradilan Indonesia. Bukti digital kini memainkan peran penting dalam mengungkap kebenaran material, terutama pada kasus-kasus yang&#8230; ng melibatkan aktivitas di ruang siber. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis dinamika penerimaan bukti digital di pengadilan Indonesia melalui studi komparatif terhadap kasus keberhasilan dan kegagalan pembuktian digital. Systematic Literature Review (SLR) yang dipadukan dengan analisis putusan pengadilan sebagai sumber data utama. Pendekatan SLR digunakan untuk mengidentifikasi, mengevaluasi, dan mensintesis berbagai literatur akademik, regulasi, serta dokumen hukum yang relevan dengan topik bukti digital dalam proses peradilan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa keberhasilan bukti digital ditentukan oleh terpenuhinya prinsip autentisitas, integritas, dan chain of custody yang sesuai dengan standar internasional ISO/IEC 27037:2012. Sebaliknya, kegagalan terjadi akibat lemahnya prosedur akuisisi bukti, keterbatasan ahli forensik digital, serta ketidaksesuaian dengan standar pembuktian hukum acara. Penelitian ini menegaskan pentingnya peningkatan kapasitas teknis aparat penegak hukum, penguatan regulasi teknis, dan pengembangan pedoman nasional pembuktian digital untuk menjamin konsistensi serta keabsahan bukti elektronik di pengadilan Indonesia.  

ISLAMIC LEGAL REVIEW OF PROPERTY DIVISION WHEN BOTH PARENTS ARE STILL ALIVE IN BINJAI

Budi, Syukurman
Abstract: The reason for dividing inheritance while the heirs are still alive is to avoid conflicts that will give rise to conflicts between heirs and not contradict Islamic law. The provisions of the Compendium of Islamic Law regarding&#8230; arding the distribution of inheritance to living heirs provide evidence that the condition of the testator's death remains an implicit condition for inheritance of his assets in the form of inheritance. However, the Compilation of Islamic Law provides another way to carry out the distribution of inheritance before the death of the heirs as stated in Article 187 paragraph (1) of the Compilation of Islamic Law. The Islamic legal view regarding the distribution of inheritance to living heirs can be taken if there is a risk of disputes and conflicts between heirs that result in losses.

Abstract: Penanaman nilai-nilai akhlak sejak dini merupakan fondasi utama pembentukan karakter anak. Nilai-nilai tasawuf seperti syukur, sabar, jujur, dan cinta kasih memiliki potensi besar untuk dikenalkan pada anak, namun sering&#8230; dianggap abstrak dan sulit dipahami. Pengabdian masyarakat ini bertujuan untuk mengembangkan dan mengimplementasikan model “Fun Learning Tasawuf” yang menggunakan pendekatan multisensori (visual, auditori, kinestetik, taktil) untuk menyampaikan nilai-nilai akhlak tasawuf kepada anak usia dini. Kegiatan dilaksanakan di PAUD Mawar, Kota Malang, dengan melibatkan 25 anak usia 4-6 tahun, 5 guru, dan 15 orang tua. Metode pelaksanaan berupa pelatihan guru, pembuatan media pembelajaran multisensori (seperti sensory box “Syukur”, puzzle “Sabar”, lagu “Ikhlas”), serta pembelajaran langsung berbasis bermain. Hasil evaluasi menunjukkan peningkatan antusiasme dan pemahaman anak terhadap konsep nilai-nilai tasawuf yang diajarkan. Anak-anak mampu mengidentifikasi dan mempraktikkan nilai-nilai tersebut dalam aktivitas sederhana. Diskusi menggarisbawahi bahwa pendekatan multisensori yang menyenangkan efektif menjembatani konsep spiritual yang abstrak menjadi pengalaman konkret bagi anak. Model ini juga meningkatkan kemampuan pedagogis guru dalam mengajarkan nilai-nilai moral. Disimpulkan bahwa “Fun Learning Tasawuf” merupakan model inovatif yang layak dikembangkan untuk pendidikan karakter anak usia dini berbasis kearifan spiritual Islam.

Community Empowerment in the Landscaping of Gardens around Karo Traditional Houses to Support Cultural Ecotourism in Lingga Village

Mei Brilian Harefa, Dasrizal, Nurul Adha Sitorus, Egy Bremana Ginting, Junianty Dahnita Br Purba
Abstract: Lingga Village in Karo Regency, North Sumatra, is a cultural village that preserves the traditional architecture of the Karo people, particularly the Siwaluh Jabu traditional house, which reflects the community’s life philosophy,&#8230; philosophy, social order, and spirituality. The surrounding environment of these traditional houses remains poorly organized, with vacant land left unmanaged and declining awareness of cultural preservation, resulting in suboptimal utilization of the area’s aesthetic value, cultural function, and tourism potential. This community service program aims to arrange a cultural garden around the traditional houses while empowering the local community to manage the cultural landscape in a sustainable manner, with a focus on preserving cultural identity, improving environmental quality, and strengthening the local economy through the development of cultural tourism and agrotourism. The implementation method adopts a community-based participatory approach, carried out through several stages: site observation and mapping, focus group discussions, planning and designing the cultural garden, training and knowledge transfer, collective implementation of garden arrangement, as well as evaluation and documentation. The garden design integrates the orientation of the Siwaluh Jabu house, the cosmological meaning of space, ecological landscape principles, and the selection of local vegetation with symbolic, aesthetic, and economic value, organized into aesthetic, educational, and productive zones. The results of the program indicate the establishment of a well-arranged cultural garden rich in Karo cultural symbols, increased community capacity and participation, and the creation of a sustainable cultural landscape management model that functions as a “living laboratory” combining aesthetic, educational, economic, and spiritual roles. This model positions the community as the main actor and holds potential to be replicated in other cultural villages with similar characteristics.
