The types of accidents experienced by… y workers included metal sparks in the eyes, cuts, lacerations, scratches, and first-aid injuries. The purpose of this study is to analyze the causes of occupational accidents among grinding workers at PT X using the Systematic Cause Analysis Technique (SCAT) method. This research is a descriptive-analytic study using observation, interviews, and documentation studies. The research was conducted between July and August 2025. The research population consisted of 32 people, including 30 grinding workers who had experienced accidents, 1 HSE manager, and 1 field coordinator. The sample for this study is the same as the population. Data analysis used univariate analysis and the SCAT method analysis. Based on the results, the most frequent accident experienced by grinding workers was metal sparks in the eyes, involving 30 respondents (100%). The direct causes of these accidents were the use of inadequate PPE by 15 respondents (50%) and the improper use of grinding tools by 11 respondents (36.7%). It is recommended that management commit to maximizing the implementation of established K3 (Occupational Health and Safety) programs and standards so that work-related accidents can be prevented and zero accidents can be achieved.

SELF-MANAGEMENT AND WORK READINESS AMONG BACHELOR’S DEGREE FRESH GRADUATES

utami, Narastri insan, Siti Yuliany
Abstract: A graduate is generally expected to possess stronger competencies than a non-graduate, particularly at the undergraduate level, where higher education should foster greater competitiveness and work readiness to meet industry&#8230; stry standards. However, many fresh graduates report feeling unprepared to enter the workforce, and employers frequently perceive them as lacking essential readiness for work. This study aims to examine the relationship between self-management and work readiness among fresh graduates of undergraduate programs. The proposed hypothesis states that there is a positive relationship between self-management and work readiness. The study involved 120 fresh graduate participants. Research data were collected using the Work Readiness Scale (reliability coefficient = 0.883) and the Self-Management Scale (reliability coefficient = 0.900). Data analysis was conducted using the Product Moment correlation technique. The results show a correlation coefficient of r = 0.846 with p = 0.000 (p < 0.050), indicating a significant positive relationship between self-management and work readiness among fresh graduate undergraduate students.

SUSTAINABLE AGILITY-DRIVEN CULTURE IN HUMAN RESOURCE MANAGEMENT: A PRIDE FRAMEWORK FOR FUTURE-READY ORGANIZATIONS

Wulandari, Aghnia, Efendi, Suryono, Hasanudin, Han, Yonghwa
Abstract: This research develops the PRIDE Framework to integrate five interdependent dimensions, People (People-Centric Excellence), Resilience, Innovation, Development, and Empowerment, into a unified model explaining how HRM practices&#8230; actices drive both sustainability and agility. A systematic literature review guided by PRISMA principles was conducted, selecting peer-reviewed empirical and conceptual studies that examine HRM, organizational agility, and sustainability. Thematic synthesis and reflexive analysis produced a circular puzzle architecture representing these dimensions and their interconnections. Findings reveal that integrated people-centric policies, robust knowledge management, embedded innovation practices, continuous learning, and distributed decision-making create synergistic capabilities that enable rapid adaptation while maintaining long-term viability. Critical enablers include psychological safety, holistic wellness initiatives, adaptive learning programs, and outcome-based empowerment. The framework addresses gaps by showing sustainability and agility as complementary imperatives rather than competing priorities. Future research should validate the framework through multi-level and longitudinal studies, incorporate diverse language sources for broader context, and explore the impacts of AI-enabled HRM on each dimension. Limitations involve temporal and linguistic scope.
