Peran Human Capital Terhadap Efisiensi Perusahaan Perbankan Di Indonesia

—Human capital (HC) menjadi salah satu faktor pen-ting dalam keunggulan kompetitif Perusahaan untuk memenang-kan persaingan, dimana aspek tersebut berperan dalam mening-katkan potensi Sumber Daya Manusia (SDM) agar dapat diber-dayakan secara optimal. HC berkaitan dengan investasi Perusa-haan dalam pengembangan SDM. Adanya kecenderungan Peru-sahaan dalam mengeluarkan biaya tenaga kerja cukup tinggi, khususnya pada Perusahaan perbankan, dapat mempengaruhi efisiensi Perusahaan. Oleh karena itu penelitian ini dilakukan untuk mengetahui bagaimana peran HC terhadap efisiensi Peru-sahaan perbankan di Indonesia dengan menghitung rasio biaya tenaga kerja yang juga menyangkut biaya pendidikan dan pela-tihan. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kuantitatif dengan teknik analisis Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA). Sampel dari penelitian ini adalah 31 Bank yang terdaftar di Bursa Efek Indonesia. Berdasarkan hasil analisa ditemukan bahwa terdapat kontribusi human capital terhadap efisiensi bank di Indonesia

Analisis Deskriptif Kepuasan Karyawan Lembaga Keuangan Perbankan

Lembaga Keuangan Perbankan sangat perlu untuk memperhatikan kepuasan nasabahnya, karena kepuasan nasabah mampu meningkatkan kinerja keuangan perusahaan. Maka dari itu, untuk meningkatkan kepuasan nasabah, pelayanan perlu ditingkatkan. Peningkatan pelayanan dilakukan dengan cara meningkatkan kepuasan karyawan frontliner. Peningkatkan kepuasan karyawan frontliner akan membuat karyawan menjadi lebih setia dan ilmu yang dimiliki oleh karyawan untuk melayani semakin meningkat. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi dan mengurutkan peringkat faktor-faktor yang mempengaruhi kepuasan karyawan frontliner di Surabaya. Data untuk penelitian dikumpulkan dengan menggunakan instrumen kuesioner. Jumlah data terkumpul adalah sebanyak 71 buah. Analisis yang digunakan adalah analisis scatter plot yang terdiri dari mean dan standar deviasi untuk mengurutkan peringkat-peringkat faktor kepuasan karyawan. Hasil yang didapatkan membuktikan bahwa pelatihan dan pengembangan mempunyai peringkat tertinggi yang mempengaruhi kepuasan karyawan frontliner, sementara pemberdayaan dan partisipasi mempunyai peringkat terendah yang mempengaruhi karyawan frontliner

Severe myoclonic epilepsy in infancy: evolution of seizures

Changes in seizure type of severe myoclonic epilepsy (SME) in infancy were reviewed retrospectively in 14 patients (11 males and 3 females) who were followed-up to the age of 7 years or more. The observation period ranged from 5 to 16 years with a mean of 10 years. During the follow-up, three or four types of seizures were seen per patient, but the pattern of appearance and disappearance of each seizure type varied considerably among the patients. Tonic-clonic convulsion, either generalized or unilateral, was seen most consistently through the entire course, and it continued to the end of follow-up in 11 patients (79%). On the contrary, myoclonic seizure, complex partial seizure, and atypical absence often disappeared and reappeared repeatedly during the course. In SME, seizure symptoms varied widely among patients in comparison with other neurological symptoms, and the most consistent core seizure type was tonic-clonic convulsions

The X-ray CCD camera of the MAXI Experiment on the ISS/JEM

MAXI, Monitor of All-sky X-ray Image, is the X-ray observatory on the Japanese experimental module (JEM) Exposed Facility (EF) on the International Space Station (ISS). MAXI is a slit scanning camera which consists of two kinds of X-ray detectors: one is a one-dimensional position-sensitive proportional counter with a total area of $\sim 5000 cm^2$, the Gas Slit Camera (GSC), and the other is an X-ray CCD array with a total area $\sim 200 cm^2$, the Solid-state Slit Camera (SSC). The GSC subtends a field of view with an angular dimension of 1$^\circ\times 180^\circ$ while the SSC subtends a field of view with an angular dimension of 1$^\circ$ times a little less than 180$^\circ$. In the course of one station orbit, MAXI can scan almost the entire sky with a precision of 1$^\circ$ and with an X-ray energy range of 0.5-30 keV. We have developed the engineering model of CCD chips and the analogue electronics for the SSC. The energy resolution of EM CCD for Mn K$\alpha$ has a full-width at half maximum of $\simeq$ 182 eV. Readout noise is $\simeq$ 11 e^- rms.Comment: 10 pages, 4 figures Accepted for Nuclear Instruments and Method in Physics Researc

Discovery of TUG-770: a highly potent free fatty acid receptor 1 (FFA1/GPR40) agonist for treatment of type 2 diabetes

Free fatty acid receptor 1 (FFA1 or GPR40) enhances glucose-stimulated insulin secretion from pancreatic β-cells and currently attracts high interest as a new target for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. We here report the discovery of a highly potent FFA1 agonist with favorable physicochemical and pharmacokinetic properties. The compound efficiently normalizes glucose tolerance in diet-induced obese mice, an effect that is fully sustained after 29 days of chronic dosing

Fast Spectral Variability from Cygnus X-1

We have developed an algorithm that, starting from the observed properties of the X-ray spectrum and fast variability of an X-ray binary allows the production of synthetic data reproducing observables such as power density spectra and time lags, as well as their energy dependence. This allows to reconstruct the variability of parameters of the energy spectrum and to reduce substantially the effects of Poisson noise, allowing to study fast spectral variations. We have applied the algorithm to Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer data of the black-hole binary Cygnus X-1, fitting the energy spectrum with a simplified power law model. We recovered the distribution of the power law spectral indices on time-scales as low as 62 ms as being limited between 1.6 and 1.8. The index is positively correlated with the flux even on such time-scales.Comment: 14 pages, 19 figures, accepted by MNRA

Measuring spin of a supermassive black hole at the Galactic centre -- Implications for a unique spin

We determine the spin of a supermassive black hole in the context of discseismology by comparing newly detected quasi-periodic oscillations (QPOs) of radio emission in the Galactic centre, Sagittarius A* (Sgr A*), as well as infrared and X-ray emissions with those of the Galactic black holes. We find that the spin parameters of black holes in Sgr A* and in Galactic X-ray sources have a unique value of $\approx 0.44$ which is smaller than the generally accepted value for supermassive black holes, suggesting evidence for the angular momentum extraction of black holes during the growth of supermassive black holes. Our results demonstrate that the spin parameter approaches the equilibrium value where spin-up via accretion is balanced by spin-down via the Blandford-Znajek mechanism regardless of its initial spin. We anticipate that measuring the spin of black holes by using QPOs will open a new window for exploring the evolution of black holes in the Universe.Comment: 5 pages, 3 figures, accepted by MNRAS LETTE
