Time Management in Organizations

TIME MANAGEMENT IN ORGANIZATIONS An organization is a unity of individuals and groups that are consciously formed to work together to realize predetermined goals. Human Resources (HR) are an important factor in achieving organizational goals. Sayuti Hasibuan (2000:3) explains that Human Resources can be interpreted as all humans involved in an organization in trying to realize the organization's goals. The success or failure of an organization in achieving its goals depends on the quality of the human resources who control the organization. HR always plays an active role and takes part in organizational activities because HR is a planner and actor until organizational goals are achieved. Organizational goals here are targets that will be achieved by the organization within a certain time period. Daft (2006:320) explains that objectives are divided into three, namely: 1. Strategic objectives are general statements that explain the direction the organization wants to go in the future. 2. Tactical goals are goals used by middle level management and explain what sub units must do so that the organization can achieve its overall goals. 3. Operational goals are goals that are accurate and measurable. Goals are stated in the form of numbers and departmental plans describe how the goals can be achieved. Based on Daft's opinion, it can be concluded that each goal has a different direction. Humans as different individuals definitely have different goals from each other, that is what leaders should study and control so that all levels of the organization have the same goals. By setting a goal, employees will be motivated to improve their performance to achieve that goal. Rivai & Basri (2004) in Harsuko (2011) explains that when performance is linked to performance as a noun, the meaning of performance is the work results that can be achieved by a person or group of people in a company in accordance with their respective authority and responsibilities. each in an effort to achieve company goals illegally, does not violate the law and does not conflict with morals and ethics. Based on this understanding, performance is a person's efforts in an organization to achieve organizational goals in accordance with authority and responsibility. The role of a leader is very necessary because employee performance cannot come by itself, there must be clear direction and an appropriate workload set for employees. Employees also need to carry out self-management in an effort to carry out the work that has been determined, one of which is managing time so that it is well organized and planned. Jones in Nur Kholisa (2012:56) explains that time management is carried out by prioritizing, scheduling and taking responsibility according to ability, so that the time management carried out results in satisfaction for the individual. By managing time well, starting with prioritizing the tasks to be done. Then, the individual schedules the tasks that will be done later. Most importantly, there needs to be a sense of responsibility in each individual for the tasks being carried out. Based on Presidential Regulation of the Republic of Indonesia no. 62 of 2010, the National Population and Family Planning Agency (BKKBN) is a non-ministerial government institution that is under and responsible to the President through the Minister responsible for the health sector. The BKKBN has the task of carrying out government duties in the field of controlling occupation and implementing family planning. In this institution, there are several areas to support the implementation of the main tasks and functions that have been determined. The BKKBN Training and Development Sector or BKKN Latbang Sector is one of the supporting areas which focuses on education, training and development of family planning programs for health workers. With training activities for health workers, credible sources and human resources who have adequate performance are definitely needed so that training activities can be carried out optimally. Based on a preliminary study carried out by conducting direct observations in the BKKBN Research and Development Sector, the results showed that within the BKKBN Research and Development Sector there were several problems that occurred, including: 1. Employees are often seen arriving later than the office arrival time, namely at 07.30 WIB and leaving after working hours, namely 15.30 WIB. 2. Unequal distribution of work among several employees, so that there are employees who do not have tasks which is inversely proportional to employees who get more work. 3. Accumulation of workload that is not in accordance with the number of existing human resources and the number continues to increase, so that work is neglected even for long periods of time. 4. Employees have neglected their work several times by watching films or drama series. Based on these problems, it can be seen that several problems are very influential in the time management of employees in the BKKBN Research and Development Sector, where the large workload makes them unable to prioritize which tasks must be done first and still ignores work that has not been completed. This is caused by a lack of available human resources and can greatly influence the effectiveness of the performance of employees in the BKKBN Research and Development Sector. In Government Regulation no. 35 of 2021 explains, one of which is the Specific Time Work Agreement which stipulates 2 working hours including: a. 7 hours a day and 40 hours a week for 6 working days a week; or b. 8 hours a day and 40 hours a week for 5 working days a week.
