Data primer berupa kuesioner dan data sekunder berupa studi literatur. Adapun faktor kompensasi (compensable factor) yang digunakan berupa pendidikan formal, pengalaman bekerja, kemampuan manajerial, pengambilan keputusan, konsekuensi kesalahan, tantangan berpikir, kebebasan bertindak, kompleksitas kerja, usaha fisik, dan komunikasi. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian, diketahui bahwa sistem kompensasi yang ideal untuk diterapkan oleh perusahaan adalah sistem kompensasi tumpang tindih atau overlapping., Banjarnegara Agro Mandiri Sejahtera Ltd is one of the SMEs located in Banjarnegara Regency which is engaged in the food and beverage (fnb) sector. In the other side, Banjarnegara Agro Mandiri Sejahtera Ltd has not paid wages in accordance with the applicable minimum wage and has not applied the principle of internal justice. The purpose of this study was to identify the compensation system implemented by the company, analyze the basic factors in determining the compensation system, and provide recommendations for the ideal compensation design system. The research was conducted in October 2022 – January 2023. The research method includes a descriptive analysis, point method, job grading, salary mapping, and adjustments. Primary data in the form of questionaries and secondary data in the form of literature studies. The compensable factors used are formal education, work experience, managerial ability, decision making, consequences of mistakes, thinking challenges, freedom of action, work complexity, physical effort, and communication. Based on the research results, it was known that the ideal compensation system to be implemented by companies is an overlapping compensation system.

Judul: Thermal Characteristics and Dynamics of Tropical Cyclone over Western North Pacific Ocean: A Case Study of Typhoon Songda (Chedeng) 2011
Abstrak: The frequent occasion of Tropical Cyclone (TC) over Western North Pacific (WNP) Ocean lies from 10˚N to 26˚N and 121˚E to 170˚E. Sources of TC development come from warm ocean temperature where latent heat is released during condensation processes and subsequently concentrated in the boundary layer. Relative humidity at 850-700 hPa is responsible to produce the most intense storm. Meanwhile, weak vertical wind shear between 850-200 hPa is one of the dynamical factors that lead to the development of TC. Pressure level of 850-200 hPa is chosen to minimize the thermodynamic effect in the lower troposphere. Typhoon Songda (Chedeng in the Philippines) or TSC lasted from May 18th to 30th, 2011 and strengthened into powerful Super Typhoon stage between May 24th and 27th. Long curving track and the exhibition of all sequences of TC life cycle, TSC is then considered as an ideal case of TC. The objective of the study with case of TSC is to investigate the role of thermal characteristics and dynamics on TC intensity. The research is carried out by using Advanced Research of Weather Research and Forecasting model (WRF ARW model) version 3.3. Two domains are employed in the model. The first domain situate from 02˚N to 40˚N and 118˚E to 149˚E and cover spatial resolution () of 33.1 km. The second domain situate from 09˚N to 27˚N and 119˚E to 132˚E with of 11 km. Timestep of the model () is 120 seconds. The model is supported by the following physical parameterization, i.e., Yonsei University Scheme (YSU) in the boundary layer, Kain-Fritsch scheme (KF) in the cumulus, and WRF Single-Moment 3-class scheme in the microphysics. Initial meteorological condition prior to the formation of the cyclone is generated using WRF ARW standard-release model. Sensitivity of the model output is obtained from a selected single-parameter change scenarios, namely, 10 % to 20 % decrease and increase of wind shear initial data at 850-200 hPa, and by 10 % to 20 % decrease of relative humidity initial data at 850-700 hPa. The result showed that the negative correlations between wind shear and intensity are found in wind shear scenarios. Wind shears of 10 ms-1 which lead to strengthening of the wind intensity in the early period of Typhoon development are found in wind shear scenarios. The effect of wind shear changes on wind intensity is statistically significant in the 20 % wind shear scenarios. During mature stage, weak wind intensity occurred when wind shear increase as given in the WRF standard-release and the 20 % decreasing scenario. Different situation is found in the 20 % increasing scenario where wind shear tend to weak and lead to strong wind intensity at this stage. Meanwhile, the reduction of moisture supply at 850-700 hPa resulting from 20 % decreasing relative humidity play a major role in the weakening of wind intensity and reduces mechanical energy of the cycle process as much as 300 J kg-1.
