Partial Least Squares (PLS) software was applied to examine the direct effect hypotheses. The results revealed that Halal traceability system adoptions were significantly importance in enhancing Halal food supply chain integrity and performance. The study has successfully filled the gap in literature by empirically establishing the relationship between Halal traceability system adoption on Halal food supply chain integrity and performance.

Industrial Revolution 4.0 (IR4.0) has become the main issue and gain interest nationally and globally. The most affected of IR 4.0 is employment, particularly to the new graduates. The employment opportunity becomes condensed, and the requirement of the job changes dramatically. Hence, this study aimed to investigate the correlation between the new graduate knowledge, skill, technology, and readiness to be employed in IR 4.0. The core factors that contributed to the readiness for employment in 4.0 are also recognized. This study's participant is 255 students from two universities, one in public and the other from the private university using an online survey. Meanwhile, descriptive statistics, correlation, and multiple regressions use to analyze the important data. The result indicated that technology and soft skills contributed to the readiness to employ in IR 4.0. However, the respondents agreed that they were a deficiency in using technology in their study. Additionally, the readiness was parallel in all of the universities. Finally, the result proposed that university and government as policymakers need to embed the IR 4.0 knowledge, skill, and technology used in the teaching and learning to ensure the graduates ready to enter the labor market.
