    Get PDF
    This paper aims at analysing the relationship between foreign workers and its implication for the domestic job market with Australia as the point of reference. The globalized era pushes every nation to open its market including the job market. This ongoing trend surely causes disruptions in the domestic market. At the same time, the wave of overseas migrant workers fulfills the job sectors which are rarely filled by domestic workers. It can encourage the transfer of knowledge from foreign to domestic laborers. On the other hand, more overseas workers threaten the existence of domestic employers. Australia has been in a dilemma position on this matter. Many foreign workers come in fulfilling the low-level job sectors, such as fruit handpicking, construction, and nursery. At the same time, their presence threatens domestic workers who could perform better in the same field. This especially occurs when they always ask for higher wages which might be irrelevant to the domestic business cycle. In order to analyze this problem, this paper used the quantitative method. The main findings of this paper show that when the government issues policies to encourage employers to spend more on human investment, it improves the work quality of domestic workers more than foreign ones. This suggests/concludes the way government should be protective and selective in securing the domestic job market from overseas migrant workers

    Preparing children from birth can boost productivity and competitiveness later in their lives. However, the occurrence of malnutrition and stunting during childhood period will reduce their productivity and increases the risk of non-communicable diseases later in their lives. This study examines the effect of sanitation, drinking water sources, and drinking water treatment on stunting in Indonesian children (0-59 months). This study analyses cross- sectional data from the 2014 Indonesia Family Life Survey (IFLS) 5 with 3,834 children living with their biological mothers. The Logistic Regression to estimate the coefficients is applied here. The results show that the variables of sanitation, drinking water sources, and drinking water treatment before consuming affected stunting. Children who consume tap water are less likely to be stunted (OR=0.81, 95% CI 0.66-0.99). Birth weight, economic conditions, and mother’s level of education also affect risk of stunting. Hence, to overcome the risk of stunting, the government have to accelerate the supply of basic sanitation, to protect the good quality of drinking water sources, and to promote the awareness of boiling water before consumption

    Maternity Leave and Gender Equality: Comparative Studies of Indonesia, Malaysia, and Thailand

    Get PDF
    This article discusses the implications of maternity leave on gender equality by taking comparative cases in Indonesia, Malaysia, and Thailand. This article focuses on three important issues, namely the implementation of maternity leave policies, the funding system for maternity leave policies, and the implications of these policies on gender equality in the workplace. This article uses secondary data from official government documents, and documents from international institutions, such as International Labor Organization, World Bank, Asian Development Bank, and related studies. The results of the study show that maternity leave in Indonesia, Malaysia, and Thailand complies with the recommendations of the International Labor Organization conventions 1952 and 2000. The benefits provided by maternity leave accommodate women to work and take care of children. In funding maternity leave, Indonesia and Malaysia use the employer liability scheme, while Thailand uses a combination of employer liability and the social security act. These funding schemes are aimed at employees in the private and informal sectors. To promote gender equality in the workplace, the benefits of maternity leave are influential in this effort. The more companies adopt this family-friendly work environment, the more it encourages enhancing gender equality in the workplace. The study finds women are barely in managerial positions due to their responsibility in the family matter. The discussion of maternity leave in Indonesia, Malaysia, and Thailand cases leads to a better understanding of the implementation of maternity leave in developing countries, for which there is currently a research gap

    Get PDF
    The high dynamics of the Military Academy’s teacher rotation have an impact on the linearity of teaching with the subjects taught. Based on this, research on the influence of Military Teachers' leadership on the quality of cadets is essential. This study aims to determine the quality of the second level of Military Academy cadets, the learning method applied by Military Teachers, and the effect of the Military Teachers' learning method on the quality of the cadets. Research using Google Forms was conducted on 205 Level II Military Academy cadets who acted as respondents. The research objectives were answered by using quantitative methods, descriptive analysis, and linear regression analysis. The quality of cadets is measured by four indicators, namely attitudes and behavior, knowledge and skills, physical fitness, and leadership values. The results of the study are stated as follows. The cadets have good and satisfying values on attitude, behavior, knowledge, and abilities. The value of cadet leadership as measured by the cadet’s perception of self-assessment still needs to be optimized. There are cadets who are unable to make decisions correctly and quickly. Some cadets also are not willing to take risks in making decisions. These leadership values are important for a leader. During the learning process, military teachers apply a combination of supportive, participatory, directive, and achievement-oriented learning methods. The directive teaching method has the most dominant influence on the quality of cadets. The influence of supportive, participatory, and achievement-oriented methods must go through the directive method first.
