The millennial generation has an important role in actualizing environmentally friendly residence. Referring to the behavioural theory, a consumer’s Perceived Behavioural Control (PBC) is one of purchase intention antecedents. Studies revealing the millennials’ control behaviour on purchasing an eco-friendly house, especially in Indonesia, are still limited. Moreover, environmentally friendly housing is still new to prospective house buyers in Indonesia; so, how to control their behaviour toward purchasing behaviour or willingness to pay has not been clearly known. Therefore, this study is conducted to explore the millennial generation’s PBC on an eco-friendly house purchase intention. This is a qualitative research with a phenomenological approach focusing on observing the perceived behavioural control phenomenon of prospective house buyers. The data was collected through a semi-structured in-depth interview with nine prospective house buyers in Surabaya, East Java. This research found that the themes of millennial house buyers perceived behavioural control toward an eco-friendly house purchase intention were ‘perceived difficulty’ and ‘perceived benefit’. The finding implies that housing developers and government should provide convenience to develop eco-friendly houses and be consistent to complete the buildings with facilities; the facilities will especially support the millennial costumers’ sustainable living and the sustainable development in Indonesia.
This study was designed to analyze the factors of Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) implementation affecting the performance of road construction workers. The research employed a quantitative survey method by self-distributing questionnaires using simple random sampling to 50 road construction workers on a road-widening project, with a 99% response rate. The analysis based on the results of the questionnaire data through the validity test, reliability, and the multiple regressions testing: f-test and t-test of each statement item. Regarding the descriptive analysis test results, the most dominant among several elements of Work Safety variable statement was the appropriate use of work equipment, which was 81%. In contrast, the practical result of the Occupational Health variable was the first aid kits provided by companies, which was 82%. For the Worker Performance variable, the dominant result was the workers' attitude to conform to the rules leading to achieving work targets, which was 88%. Furthermore, according to the results of multiple regressions testing, it can be concluded that the implementation of occupational safety and health had a positive effect on employee performance. The findings show that the application of OHS in construction projects affects the performance of workers which ultimately also determines the achievement of the company's work targets.
Technology transfer is a way to improve technology capability, especially for Small to Medium Enterprises (SMEs) in Emerging Economies such as in Indonesia. SMEs are often thought to have insufficient resources for advancing their in-house technology development. Therefore, SMEs need technology transfer programs to increase their technology capability. Government, Business, Universities have been involved in technology transfer program in this country. Using data from about 200 Javanese metal-based SMEs, this paper discovers the technology transfer program from Government, Business, Universities in advancing the SMEs technology capability in Indonesia. The results show that substantial numbers of small to medium enterprises are actively involved in technology transfer programs.
Pallets are crucial in the logistics infrastructure system of various industries and manufacturing companies. They are made of wood and used to store various large and heavy goods. However, pulp and paper manufacturing companies undergo material shortages to make wooden pallets. Therefore, this study aimed to apply the 3-R concept (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle) to deal with pallet shortages at the companies. After several experiments, the researcher developed three techniques based on the 3-R concept with the closed-loop system: (1) repairing and (2) reusing waste pallets from/to customers, (3) using Finger Glued-Laminate's products provided internally as raw materials for pallets; all three met several mandatory criteria of strength and design in a pallet. This research aimed to help companies make policies and strategies related to applying the 3-R concept to deal with pallet shortages. If the pallet quantity can meet the company's needs, it will improve the logistics process quality and deliver the products to consumers right on schedule.
Greenship Homes V.1.0 merupakan perangkat penilaian di Indonesia, berperan sebagai alat transformasi dalam mewujudkan terciptanya suatu rumah ramah lingkungan yang efisien dan efektif dalam penggunaan energi dan air, memperhatikan konservasi material dan sumber daya alam. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisa peringkat greenship homes pada bangunan perumahan hijau serta menganalisa faktor yang paling penting bagi penghuni perumahan hijau di Kota Malang berdasarkan standar Greenship Rating Tools untuk Rumah Tinggal Versi 1.0 milik GBCI. Analisa dan perhitungan dengan menentukan rating dan analisis regresi linier berganda digunakan untuk mengetahui seberapa besar variable bebas. Hasil dari penelitian pemeringkatan Greenship ketiga perumahan masuk dalam kategori GOLD dengan persentase perumahan Perumahan C sebesar 71%, Perumahan B 70% dan Perumahan A 65%. Berdasarkan hasil perhitungan diperoleh t hitung faktor efisiensi dan konservasi energi (2,854) > t tabel (0,660) artinya faktor tersebut secara dominan merupakan harapan dari penghuni perumahan sesuai dengan yang diterapkan oleh Green Building Council Indonesia (GBCI).
