Quick Understanding Policy Implementation of Merit System in Human Resource Apparatus Management in DKI Jakarta Province

Abstract

The development of human resources is one of the priority programs of the Government of Indonesia (GOI), including for Aparatur Sipil Negara (ASN) or Indonesian civil services. One way that can be done to improve the quality of ASN is by the implementation of merit-based ASN management in all Indonesian Government Agencies. There are still very few studies that discuss in depth how the policy and implementation of the ASN management merit system, especially in local governments. Moreover, this study uses a case study in DKI Jakarta Province as a local government which is also the capital of the Republic of Indonesia. This study found that the policy implementation of the merit system in the DKI Jakarta Provincial Government is still not fully implemented. Some aspects have gaps, namely career development, promotion, and rotation. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to review the policy implementation of the merit system in the DKI Jakarta Provincial Government. The research method employed in this study is the qualitative approach through interviews, Focus Group Discussions (FGD), observations, and document reviews. The results showed that there was a significant increase in the implementation of merit-based ASN management in the DKI Jakarta Provincial Government. Is can be seen from the increase in the value merit system owned by the DKI Jakarta Provincial Government. The increase is since currently, the DKI Jakarta Provincial Government has built its talent management program.
