Evaluation of Merit System Policy Implementation in the Selection for High Leadership Positions within the Riau Provincial Government

This article discusses the evaluation of merit system policies in the implementation of selection for High Leadership Positions in Regional Government Agencies. According to Law Number 5 of 2014 concerning State Civil Apparatus (ASN Law) has brought a new foundation in bureaucratic reform of apparatus resources. This law brings a breath of change to create an apparatus that is professional, has integrity, is neutral and free from political interests. This topic is important because, so far, research on JPT selection is still dominated by matters of administrative and procedural suitability. In fact, the merit system in the theory of meritocracy and Weberian bureaucracy emphasizes aspects of transparency and equal access for each candidate. Therefore, it is important to carry out research regarding studies of equality of access and career opportunities in JPT selection at the Regional Government Agency level. This research data was obtained through literature study in the form of a literature review. The author found that there are non-merit aspects in the JPT selection process in several Regional Government Agencies studied.

The implementation of the JPT Pratama open selection within the Riau Provincial Government has been running in accordance with Perman PAN-RB Number 13 of 2014. However, the implementation of this policy has not fully met expectations, because ASN interest and motivation to take part in the selection is still low.

BUILDING PEOPLE’S RESILIENCE: SUPPORT MECHANISMS AND POST-RETIREMENT WELL-BEING OF RETIREES IN LAGOS STATE

This study examined the support mechanisms that are available to enhance the post-retirement well-being of Lagos State Civil Service retirees. Using the descriptive survey research design and the purposive/snowball sampling technique, 671 retirees were selected as respondents for this study. Collected and collated data were analyzed using descriptive statistical techniques such as tables, frequencies, and bar charts. Four research questions were stated and findings from research question one revealed that the challenges faced by Lagos State Civil Service retirees encompass financial insecurity, health deterioration, loss of routine, emotional adjustment, lack of purpose, and social isolation. Equally, research question two found that most retirees rely strongly on pensions for financial security. Research question three brought to the fore that 98.4% of the respondents observed that the existing support mechanisms during the transition to retirement are not adequate at all, and research question four indicated that retirees want assistance in financial planning, improved healthcare, lifelong learning opportunities, a centralized information portal, active feedback mechanisms, and housing assistance. Based on these findings, this study concludes that the current support mechanisms are grossly inadequate underscores a critical gap between provided services and the actual needs of the retired populace. Thus, the study recommends amongst others that the Lagos State Civil Service should implement a multi-faceted approach that addresses the diverse needs (i.e., financial education, healthcare accessibility, mental health and social reintegration services, lifelong learning, and volunteer programmes and centralized information portal) of its retirees.
