Menakar Kebijakan Pendampingan Self Declare Halal oleh Perguruan Tinggi (Studi Kasus di Universitas Nahdlatul Ulama Sidoarjo dan Uin Maulana Malik Ibrahim Malang)

This study examines various government efforts to encourage halal product assurance, especially through the creation of derivative regulations and the establishment of the Halal Product Assurance Organizing Agency (BPJPH). However, small to micro-scale business actors still need help, especially related to registration fees and understanding the importance of halal certification. The study aims to explain the role of universities in East Java in assisting halal certification for Micro and Small Enterprises (MSEs) while analyzing the legal aspects and maqashid sharia. Using field research methods and qualitative approaches, it was found that the role of universities is as PPH assistants for MSEs who meet the halal certification criteria through the self-declare route. The implementation of self-declare halal assistance is faced with the obstacle of maintaining the activeness of registered PPH assistants, and there are still business actors who need to meet the requirements in the assistance process, such as lack of information on materials and expired material certification. An effective monitoring system is required to overcome potential errors in the halal certification process. Universities are also expected to be able to create program innovations to strengthen and activate the role of PPH assistants. The government, in this case, especially BPJPH, also needs to create a more consistent policy regarding halal certification registration through the application so that the criteria of the Halal Product Assurance System (SJPH), which is built on five basic principle frameworks (arkanul halal) can be met.

Penguatan Kewenangan BPJPH dalam Pengawasan Sertifikasi Halal di Sektor Pariwisata: Analisis Hukum Terhadap Implikasi Penundaan Kewajiban Sertifikasi Halal 2024-2026

This study explores the legal implications of the postponement of the halal certification requirement in Indonesia's tourism sector until 2026, focusing on strengthening the authority of the Halal Product Assurance Agency (BPJPH) in supervising and enforcing halal standards. This postponement creates significant challenges in the application of the Lex Superior Derogat Legi Inferiori principle and results in a legal vacuum (rechtsvacuum) that could undermine legal certainty. The study employs a descriptive approach with qualitative analysis involving in-depth interviews with BPJPH officials and constitutional law academics, as well as a review of documents related to halal regulations. The findings indicate that the postponement of halal certification negatively impacts regulatory compliance, damages Indonesia's image as a halal tourism destination, and necessitates strict legal measures to address the legal vacuum and strengthen BPJPH's authority. Practical recommendations are provided to enhance oversight and law enforcement to maintain the integrity of halal standards in Indonesia during this postponement period.

The importance of drug symbols and halal logos in the pharmaceutical industry: Effect, understanding, and implementation

With its predominantly Muslim population, Indonesia has significant potential in pharmaceuticals and herbal products, making it a focal point for government initiatives to drive growth in the sector. Despite these efforts, compliance with halal standards and obtaining halal certificates still face many challenges. This research examines the efforts to fulfill halal certification obligations by implementing halal standards in pharmaceutical and herbal products. This research uses a descriptive qualitative study; the data was collected through observational reviews and interviews and supplemented with a comprehensive literature study, which includes various sources such as journals, books, online media, and other additional references. This study reveals that setting standards or halal certification involves three parties, namely the Halal Product Assurance Organizing Agency (BPJPH), the Halal Examining Agency (LPH), and the Indonesian Council of Ulama (MUI). BPJPH implements the halal product guarantee. Then BPJPH will submit it to Lembaga Pengkajian Pangan, Obat-obatan dan Kosmetika (LPPOM) as LPH to check the adequacy of documents, compile audits, conduct audits, hold auditor meetings, issue audit memoranda, and submit audit result records to the MUI Halal Fatwa Session. Together with the Fatwa Committee, MUI determines the level of halalness of the product based on the audit results and issues a MUI Halal Decree.

The method used is quantitative, and data is collected via questionnaires. A total of 50 BPJPH employees across multiple work units participated. Data were gathered through a questionnaire designed to quantify turnover intention, workload, and job stress. The data was analyzed with multiple linear regression to determine the association between work stress, workload, and employees' intention to quit the job. The results indicate that both work stress and workload significantly affect turnover intention at BPJPH, both partially and simultaneously. The combined impact of work stress and workload on turnover intention is 89.5%, while the rest is 10.5% is influenced by other variables not covered in this research. These findings highlight the importance of managing workload and work stress to reduce employees' intention to leave the organization, and provide insights for human resource management strategies at BPJPH.

Pentingnya Sertifikasi Halal Bagi Para Pelaku UMKM untuk Meningkatkan Nilai Jual Ekonomi di Desa Rejosari

Halal certification plays a crucial role in ensuring that a product is safe for consumption and complies with Islamic principles. Additionally, halal certification can also enhance a product's competitiveness. This study aims to provide understanding and knowledge to the community, particularly to Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs), about the importance of halal certification for a product in supporting sales growth, especially for food products. Using a qualitative approach, interviews and observations were conducted with MSME operators.

ADRESSING NON-COMPLIANCE WITH HALAL PRODUCT REGULATIONS IN INDONESIA: SAFEGUARDING MUSLIM CONSUMER RIGHTS

This article examines the persistent non-compliance of producers with halal product regulations in Indonesia and its implications for safeguarding the rights of Muslim consumers. Despite the enactment of the Halal Product Assurance Law in 2014, a significant discrepancy exists between regulatory mandates and actual adherence. Through a normative-juridical approach involving legal interpretation and analysis of government reports and academic literature, this study delves into the various factors contributing to this issue. The research findings indicate that non-compliance arises from a combination of regulatory uncertainties, institutional inefficiencies, and socio-economic challenges. Notably, inadequate enforcement mechanisms, overlapping institutional jurisdictions, and the financial burden of certification processes are identified as key factors. This non-compliance undermines the halal integrity of products, thereby violating the rights of Muslim consumers as stipulated by Islamic law. Resolving this issue necessitates a comprehensive overhaul of the halal certification system, encompassing streamlined procedures, improved inter-agency collaboration, and strengthened enforcement measures. These efforts contribute to the broader dialogue on religious consumer rights and regulatory adherence in diverse societies, offering valuable insights for policymakers and stakeholders in the halal sector.

Halal Product Assurance at Traditional Markets in Luwu Raya Based on Halal Supply Chain Traceability

The purpose of this study is to explore halal products in the Greater Luwu Market using halal supply chain treacebilit. the research intends to develop practical guidelines and recommendations for market operators and regulators to implement and maintain Halal assurance systems effectively. Ultimately, the goal is to promote consumer confidence in Halal products available in these traditional markets and contribute to the broader objective of standardizing Halal practices in the region. This study uses qualitative research by collecting data in the form of random interviews with economic actors of producers, distribution, and consumers in the Greater Luwu market. The results of the study found that first there are three sources of supply of goods or commodities in the Greater Luwu Market, namely outside the city , collectors of goods and land products themselves. Secondly, the application of halal awareness indirectly in the Greater Luwu community, which in fact is mostly Muslim, makes halal supply management in the Greater Luwu market run according to the provisions even though there is no specific tool to detect supply, so that the availability of halal food ingredients in the Greater Luwu market can be said to be easy to find and still dominant.

Analisis Modal Sosial Terhadap Penerapan Sistem Jaminan Produk Halal (SJPH) pada Pelaku Usaha di Pantai Lon Malang

This study aims to analyze the role of social capital in the implementation of the Halal Product Assurance System (SJPH) among businesses in Lon Malang Beach. Social capital represents the characteristics of social organizations, such as networks, norms, and social trust, which facilitate coordination and mutually beneficial cooperation. SJPH is a quality management system that ensures the produced goods meet halal standards. This research employs a qualitative method. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation. The results of the study indicate that businesses in Lon Malang Beach are in the process of implementing halal product assurance after attending socialization sessions organized by the Village-Owned Enterprises (BUMDes). They have started using materials uncontaminated by non-halal substances. If using animals as raw materials, the slaughtering process must adhere to Islamic Sharia law. Additionally, 19 individuals have obtained a Business Identification Number (NIB) as a requirement for applying for halal certification. The implementation of SJPH is influenced by strong social capital between business operators and BUMDes, which provides assistance and guidance in the halal certification process. This robust social capital is reflected in the norms, trust, networks, and reciprocal relationships that are mutually beneficial between the businesses and BUMDes. Although they do not yet possess halal certificates, the Madurese community has a high awareness of halal practices, as these have been taught from a young age by figures such as Bhuppa,' Bhâbhu', Ghuru, and Rato (Father, Mother, Government Leader). However, the ability to obtain halal certification is still low due to the limited knowledge about the certification registration process.

Comparison of Naive Bayes Classification Methods Without and With Kernel Density Estimation

Halal certification is important to give confidence to Muslim consumers around the world regarding the halalness of products. The Halal Product Assurance Organizing Body (BPJPH) is the official auditor in Indonesia that is responsible for the halal certification process. This study aims to address the need for verification and validation of data for halal certification applications in Indonesia by using the data science approach and machine learning technology. In this study, the Naïve Bayes classification method was used to optimize the data verification and validation process. However, this method needs to be improved by applying optimization methods such as Kernel Density Estimation (KDE) to improve classification results. The results showed that the Naïve Bayes classification method with KDE optimization produced better performance than the Naïve Bayes method without optimization. The performance of the Naïve Bayes classification model without optimization achieves 87.6% Accuracy, 85.4% Recall, 88.8% Precision, and 87.1% Fmeasure. Meanwhile, the Naïve Bayes classification model with KDE optimization achieves 97.5% Accuracy, 95.9% Recall, 98.9% Precision, and 97.8% Fmeasure. Thus, it can be concluded that the Naïve Bayes classification algorithm with KDE optimization results in a performance increase of 9.9% compared to the Naïve Bayes method without optimization. This research has important implications in handling complex and non-normally distributed data and providing solutions for BPJPH in the process of verifying halal certification.

The Implementation of Aceh Qanun on Halal Labeling for MSMEs in West Aceh Regency

The purpose of this study is to determine the implementation of Aceh Qanun Number 8 of 2016 on the Halal Product Assurance System (The Aceh Qanun on Halal Label) on Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) and to understand the supervision of the implementation of the Aceh Qanun on Halal Label in West Aceh Regency. The study method used is empirical juridical, producing descriptive data regarding implementing the Aceh Qanun on Halal Label towards MSMEs in the West Aceh Regency. This study is important because data from the Health Office of West Aceh Regency shows that 30 MSMEs have obtained halal certificates. In comparison, 64 MSMEs do not have halal certificates for their marketed food products. Based on the data, this fact does not comply with the provisions of Article 4 of Law Number 33 of 2014 on Halal Product Assurance (hereinafter referred to as the Halal Product Guarantee Law 2014), which obliges all products traded in Indonesia to have halal certification. This provision is in line with Article 4 of the Aceh Qanun on Halal Label, which states that the Halal Product Assurance System aims to provide protection, peace of mind, and legal certainty to the community in consuming and using Halal and hygienic products for physical and spiritual health. The assurance of halal products refers to legal certainty regarding the halal status of products, proven by halal certificates, halal registration numbers, and halal labels. Many MSMEs in West Aceh do not have halal product certificates, so the objectives of the Aceh Qanun on Halal Label have yet to be well implemented. The suboptimal supervision also influences the suboptimal implementation of the Aceh Qanun on Halal Label. This supervision involves various West Aceh Regency Local Government institutions, such as the Ministry of Religious Affairs and the Health Office. The main constraint is the limited funds allocated for such supervision, resulting in suboptimal halal product supervision for MSMEs in West Aceh.

Legal Effectiveness in the Application of Halal Product Assurance Certification to MSME Business Actors According to Law Number 33 of 2014 concerning Halal Product Assurance

The focus of the study aims to evaluate the extent of legal effectiveness in the application of halal product assurance certification by MSME business actors. The research method used is qualitative with techniques in collecting data, namely literature studies. After the data is collected, data analysis is carried out which includes the stages of data simplification, data presentation and conclusion making. The conclusion of the study explains that the effectiveness of the law in implementing halal product assurance certification for MSME business actors is still at a low level. Several obstacles were identified, such as lack of knowledge about the JPH Law and the halal certification process, the relatively expensive cost of halal certification, the halal certification process which is considered complicated and convoluted and lack of assistance and socialization from the government.

Legal Frameworks in Halal Tourism: A Comparative Study of Malaysia and Indonesia

Halal tourism is a rapidly growing sector with significant economic potential, yet there is limited understanding of the effectiveness and comparative strengths of the legal frameworks in Malaysia and Indonesia, two leading Muslim-majority countries. While both nations have developed extensive regulations and certification processes to ensure compliance with Islamic principles, their approaches and implementation strategies vary. This study aims to fill the gap in comparative analyses of these frameworks by identifying best practices, understanding challenges, and providing recommendations to enhance the legal and regulatory environments. This study uses a qualitative research methodology to compare the legal frameworks of halal tourism in Malaysia and Indonesia. It involves a literature review, document analysis of key legal texts, and comparative analysis to identify similarities and differences in the legal frameworks of halal tourism between Malaysia and Indonesia. The findings indicate that while both Malaysia and Indonesia have robust legal frameworks supporting halal tourism, their approaches and implementation strategies differ. Malaysia’s centralized and globally recognized certification system, along with comprehensive legislative measures, provides a strong foundation for halal tourism. Indonesia’s comprehensive Halal Product Assurance Law and collaborative efforts across various governmental agencies ensure widespread compliance and promotion of halal tourism. By learning from each other’s best practices and addressing respective challenges, both countries can further optimize their legal and regulatory environments to support the growth of halal tourism, ultimately benefiting the global Muslim tourist community.

Assurance of Halal Beef Products Using a Traceability System in Enterprise Resource Planning Applications

Abstract This research addresses the critical issue of maintaining consumer trust in the halal products within the Indonesian context, specifically focusing on beef products. Recognizing the vulnerability of halal products and counterfeit certificates, the study proposes an innovative solution through the implementation of an Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) application. This application is designed to trace and monitor the halal beef supply chain, aligning with the certification standards set by the Indonesian Ulema Council (MUI). The choice of beef as the subject of this study stems from its high susceptibility to counterfeiting and the complexity of its supply chain. The research utilizes an ERP system for its comprehensive enterprise-level management capabilities, including aspects of purchasing, inventory, and manufacturing. This technology integration aims to address the challenges in tracing halal beef products from their origin to the consumer (upstream to downstream), ensuring compliance with halal requirements and optimizing the supply chain. Methodologically, the development of this traceability system adheres to the System Development Life Cycle (SDLC), employing a modified waterfall model. The system’s efficacy is evaluated through Blackbox testing, demonstrating its capability to effectively track the journey of halal beef products. It ensures validation at each stage of the supply chain in accordance with MUI’s halal certification criteria and provides rapid tracking capabilities in emergency situations. In conclusion, this study presents a significant technological innovation in the field of halal product assurance. It offers an integrated solution that combines information technology and management principles to uphold the integrity of halal products, thereby safeguarding consumer trust and supporting the reputation of conscientious manufacturers in Indonesia.
