Esources such as capital and office infrastructure. Human resources are the most important thing for an institution, because humans have the ability to set goals, collaborate, and work so that planned goals are achieved. Likewise, it is no less important than the office infrastructure in an institution that has a big influence in efforts to increase work efficiency and effectiveness. Therefore, an institution really needs office infrastructure that can be used by employees in carrying out their duties and responsibilities so that administrative activities and other operational activities can run well and smoothly. Office infrastructure is one of the factors that supports the success of an institution in achieving the organization's goals. Office facilities and infrastructure are an important part that need to be prepared ideally and continuously so that they can ensure the smooth running of employee work activities. Considering that office facilities and infrastructure are very important in efforts to facilitate employee work activities, therefore it is necessary to manage adequate facilities and infrastructure. Means are anything that is used as a tool to achieve aims and objectives, means are more indicated for moving objects such as computers and machines. Infrastructure is something that is the main support for the implementation of the process (Business, Development, Project), infrastructure is more indicated for immovable objects such as buildings, space, land. Work effectiveness is a condition that shows the level of success of management activities in achieving goals including quantity work, quality of work, and timeliness in completing work. Effectiveness is often associated with an efficient system, so that the service process takes place effectively, optimally and on time, thereby eliminating the need for overtime work with its implications. The efficiency of work processes, the level of effectiveness of office technology users, and the comfort of the work environment will directly and indirectly influence employee performance in completing assigned tasks. Apart from that, there are also various factors that influence work effectiveness, including: time, tasks, productivity, motivation, work evaluation, supervision, work environment, equipment and facilities. It is logical and appropriate if increasing effectiveness is made one of the government's long-term targets in implementing its strategy. Based on the phenomena presented above, it is clear that the Office of Industry, Trade, Energy and Mineral Resources of North Sumatra Province has not been well managed regarding infrastructure and has not complied with the appropriate regulatory principles. Problems like this should be addressed immediately and maximized so that in the future it can be as good as it should be. If this is resolved, it will certainly create a comfortable and conducive atmosphere so that employees can carry out their work responsibilities well and optimally. Therefore, the researcher was interested and conducted research as a result of an internship, with the title "The influence of the lack of office infrastructure on the effectiveness of employee performance

RELIABILITY, AVAILABILITY, AND MAINTAINABILITY (RAM) ANALYSIS FOR PERFORMANCE EVALUATION OF POWER GENERATION MACHINES

<p>This paper presents a reliability, availability, and maintenance (RAM) analysis framework to evaluate the performance of Power Generation Machines (MPL) as part of office infrastructure. MPL performance is evaluated by calculating maintenance performance, including Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF) to see reliability aspects, Mean Time to Repair (MTTR) to see maintainability aspects, and availability to see its operational availability. This research used data as maintenance log sheet data from three MPLs from January to September 2021. The results showed that MPL1 had the most optimal condition with an availability value of 93.48%, MPL2 was 82.19%, and MPL3 was 70.55%. Root cause analysis was carried out using Fishbone Diagram. It was able to identify the main problems in the machine's age and the procedure for submitting maintenance. Maintenance performance improvement is very much needed, especially the availability aspect for MPL2 and MPL3, as well as the valuation of existing preventive care. In addition, determining qualification standards for availability, MTBF, and machine MTTR needs to be carried out as a quantitative consideration in making MPL replacement decisions.<strong></strong></p><p> </p>

The Covid-19 pandemic rapidly changed and is still changing the way people live and work on a global scale. During the pandemic, most organisations are forced to implement a work-from-home solution, irrespective of employees’ preferences, abilities, and the nature and extent of jobs. In this research, we aimed to explore perspectives on employee engagement, work from home and an employee wellness programme in the context of the Covid-19 pandemic among employees of an organisation that focuses on outsourced debt collections. The study was conducted within a positivistic research paradigm. A quantitative cross-sectional, survey design was employed. Total population sampling was used. Data were collected from 95 respondents through a web-based survey using a coded questionnaire. From the results of study, it became evident that the proactive approach taken by the leadership of the organisation early in 2020, in anticipation of the effects of the Covid-19 pandemic, resulted in positive outcomes for the organisation. The results indicated that the employees were, to a great extent, engaged in the workplace, mainly owing to organisational and leadership support, the flexibility allowed in the work-from-home model and organisational concern for the health and wellness of employees. However, the employees were subjected to challenges generally experienced by homeworkers during the Covid-19 pandemic, such as increased workloads and working hours, loneliness due to isolation, and inadequate office infrastructure. The results of the study are important to inform business decisions regarding the work-from-home model as a temporary or alternative working arrangement in the organisation under investigation and may benefit organisations operating in similar contexts.

Guest Editorial: Incubators and Accelerators: Integrating Evolving Incubator Models and Learning from the Past

The papers in this special section focus on the ability to integrate evolving incubator models into the organization. Management and organizational science focusing on the complex process of R&D that leads to the subsequent commercialization has come a long way since the days of post-World War II industrial and research laboratories. In this context, the evolution of the incubator can be retraced from the foundational research in the 1950s and 1960s of Researchon-Research—that explored the R&D process in a number of settings to derive and test theories of organization behavior. Since then, we have seen a concentration of research and practice that have spanned a burgeoning range of incubators models and entities that, in some manner, exist to play a role to support and harness new technology-based start-ups. For more than half a century, these third-party entities in the entrepreneurial ecosystem have spread from the United States to Europe and are a well-established worldwide phenomenon. Business incubators have been largely viewed as an essential means to facilitating the process of knowledge transfer and tech-based commercialization through the provision of office infrastructure, laboratories and equipment, business support services, mentoring, and access to entrepreneurial finance and specialist networks for the founders of these embryonic start-ups.

Problematika Transformasi Sertipikasi Tanah Digital

In an effort to realize good and equitable services to all communities, the Ministry of ATR/BPN seeks to become a transparent and accountable institution or known as Good Governance. As an effort to realize this, digital land certification services are one of the steps towards good governance. This study aims to find out the problems faced in realizing digital certificates. The research method was carried out qualitatively, data was presented descriptively, while data collection was carried out through interviews with several respondents, namely the community and employees in the Kerawang Regency Land Office. The results of the study show that several obstacles in digital certificates are caused by internal factors including those related to human resources who are not entirely able to use technology/information, limited office infrastructure, data that has not been integrated and the need for definite checks related to documents in land certificates. While some external factors are related to the community and other agencies, namely not all people have the ability to use information technology, not all people have digital equipment, besides the problem with other agencies, namely the unavailability or integration of data in one system. Some of these problems have caused the digital land certification process to take a long time and do not meet the expected standards.

Utilization of programmable cameras for web-based sensing and control of daylight in buildings

The concept of integrating programmable low-cost cameras into the office infrastructure and BMS for real-time, web-based sensing and control of the luminous environment in buildings is presented in this study. Experiments were conducted to evaluate the potential of predicting the luminance field perceived by an office occupant using a programmable calibrated HDR camera installed at the rear side of a computer monitor or on the wall behind the occupant, for a variety of sky conditions and shading options. The generated luminance maps using Python scripts with OpenCV packages were further processed to extract daylighting and glare metrics using Evalgare. The results showed that: (i) among the different camera resolutions that were compared, the 330x330 resolution was selected as the best option to balance between accurate capturing of visual environment and comfort and computational efficiency; (ii) a camera sensor embedded on the rear side of a computer screen could capture interior visual conditions consistently similarly to those viewed by the occupant, except for sunny conditions without proper shading protection. This prototype study paves the way for luminance monitoring and daylight control using programmable low-cost camera sensors embedded into the office infrastructure.

MANAJEMEN PUBLIK KANTOR DESA PAMARUNAN DALAM MEMBERIKAN PELAYANAN SATU ATAP KEPADA MASYARAKAT (Studi di Kantor Desa Pamarunan, Kecamatan Kahayan Tengah, Kabupaten Pulang Pisau)

The Village Office is one of the places where government tasks take place from the village head and all staff in carrying out administrative activities or activities, namely in the form of work units consisting of complete infrastructure, rooms and jobs to provide services to the community. The research method used is descriptive qualitative method that seeks to describe a social phenomenon naturally which aims to describe the nature of something that is going on in solving problems and data collection techniques by means of observation, interviews and documentation so that the data obtained is arranged systematically. The data analysis technique in this study uses data analysis according to Miles and Huberman. The results showed that public management in the provision of services at the Pamarunan Village Office was still not optimal. This is because the office has been damaged so it needs the construction of a new office, facilities for office infrastructure are still very minimal, service time is only open until 12 o'clock and also human resources still need to increase capacity. From this, the Pamarunan Village Office is expected to continue to make improvements, both in improving facilities and infrastructure as well as evaluating human resources to continue to improve good services and work in accordance with the established standard of service operations. So that people who receive services can feel satisfied with the service provided by their village equipment. Especially for people who need a one-stop service in this village office to be more optimal to help meet the needs of the village community. Factors supporting public management at the Pamarunan Village Office in providing one-stop services are cooperation between village officials as service providers to provide maximum service, responsiveness from each village apparatus to respond to all community needs and complaints and community awareness especially communities in Pamarunan Village to follow procedures predetermined service. The inhibiting factor of public management at the Pamarunan Village Office was the lack of facilities and infrastructure because only facilities such as one-unit laptops, one-unit computers and printer were printed. This resulted in services being constrained by the incomplete facilities owned by the village office, lack of ability village officials, service time is only open until 12 noon and lacks human resources.

Prevalence and risk factors for low back pain among university teaching staff in Nairobi, Kenya: a cross-sectional study

Background: To date, there are few studies carried out on low back pain (LBP) among university teaching staff in developing countries despite academics being a high-risk group for LBP. In Kenya, to the best of our knowledge, there are no published studies that have investigated risk factors for LBP among teaching staff. The objectives of this study were to estimate the prevalence of LBP among teaching staff of the University of Nairobi (UoN), during the period June 2016 – May 2017, and to identify its socio-demographic and work-related risk factors. Methods: An analytical cross-sectional study design was used to estimate the prevalence and investigate the risk factors for LBP among 136 teaching staff of UoN. A semi-structured questionnaire was used to collect data on LBP history, work-related and socio-demographic characteristics of the study participants. The 12-month prevalence of LBP and its associated 95% exact binomial confidence interval were estimated. A mixed-effects logistic regression model was used to evaluate the relationship between the predictors and LBP. Results: The estimated 12-month prevalence of LBP was 64% (95% CI: 55.3%–72.0%). From the multivariable analysis, physical inactivity (aOR: 6.0; 95% CI: 1.2–29.6), office chairs without lumbar supports (aOR: 3.3; 95% CI: 0.1–0.9) and high workplace stress (aOR: 4.4; 95% CI: 1.1–17.5) were identified as significant risk factors for LBP among the respondents. Conclusions: This study has revealed a high burden of LBP among teaching staff of the UoN and undoubtedly mimics the situation in other higher learning institutions in Kenya. Physical inactivity, sitting on chairs without lumbar supports and workplace stress have been identified as modifiable risk factors for LBP among teaching staff. This suggests a need to strengthen advocacy for regular physical activity, team-building activities and investment in office infrastructure to mitigate the effects of LBP within learning institutions.

Information from Earth Observation for the Management of Sustainable Land Use and Land Cover in Brazil: An Analysis of User Needs

Brazil has some of the world’s most important forest and natural ecosystem resources and their sustainability is of global importance. The expansion of agriculture for livestock, the extractive industries, illegal logging, land conflicts, fire and deforestation are pressures on land use and drivers of land use change in many regions of Brazil. While different institutions in Brazil have sought to use Earth Observation (EO) data to support better land use management and conservation projects, several problems remain at the national and state level in the implementation of EO to support environmental policies and services provided to Brazilian society. This paper presents the results of a systematic analysis of the key challenges in using EO data in land management in Brazil and summarises them in a conceptual model of the factors influencing EO data use for assessing sustainable land use and land cover in Brazil. The research was based on a series of in-depth, semi-structured interviews (43) and structured interviews (53) with key stakeholders who make use of EO data across different locations in Brazil. The major challenges identified in the complex and multifaceted aspects of using this information were associated with access to, and with the processing of, raw data into usable information. The analysis also revealed novel insights on a lack of inter-institutional communication, adequate office infrastructure and personnel, availability of the right type of EO data and funding restrictions, political instability and bureaucracy as factors that limit more effective use of EO data in Brazil at present. We close this analysis by considering how EO information for the sustainable management of land use and land cover can assist institutions as they respond to the varied political and economic instabilities affecting environmental governance and deforestation levels.

Patients’ perceptions of health system responsiveness in ambulatory care in Germany

ObjectiveTo identify overall levels of health system responsiveness and the associations with social determinants for ambulatory health care in Germany from a user perspective. MethodsThis analysis drew on a 2016 health survey sample of 6113 adults in Germany. Responsiveness was measured for general practitioners (GPs) and specialists (SPs) along the domains trust, dignity, confidentiality, autonomy and communication. Bivariate and multivariate logistic regression techniques were applied. ResultsOver 90% of all patients assessed their last GP and SP visit as good regarding trust, dignity, autonomy and communication, but only half for confidentiality in the doctor office (GP visits: 50.3%; SP visits: 52.4%). For GP visits, patients’ young age of 18–34 years showed most associations with poor assessment of the domains, for SP visits a current health problem as the reason for the last consultation. ConclusionWhile overall responsiveness levels for ambulatory care are high, ratings of confidentiality are distressing. Particularly patients’ young age and bad health are associated with a poor assessment of responsiveness. Practice implicationsMeasures to improve doctor office infrastructure and to enhance responsiveness towards patients under the age of 35 years and those with health problems are vital to increase responsiveness.
