Hasanuddin University marked a historic moment in human resource management through the oath-taking of Civil Servants (PNS) and Permanent Non-Civil Servants (NPT), the inauguration and oath-taking of Government Employees with Work Agreements (PPPK), and the handover of Decrees (SK) to hundreds of education staff.
On this occasion, Unhas handed over decrees to 397 Non-Permanent Non-Civil Servant (NPTT) education staff and 337 Prospective Permanent Non-Civil Servants (CNPT). The number is one of the largest appointments in staff management at the university. The event took place at Baruga A.P. Pettarani, Unhas Tamalanrea Campus, Makassar, on Tuesday (17 March).
In remarks, Unhas Rector Prof. Dr. Ir. Jamaluddin Jompa, M.Sc., stressed that the event is part of the institution’s commitment to strengthening human resource capacity, which is the main foundation of the university’s development. Strengthening human resources is regarded as a strategic step to ensure that institutional governance runs professionally, effectively, and sustainably.
According to the Rector, the handover of decrees should not be understood merely as an administrative process, but also as the institution’s recognition of the dedication, hard work, and contributions of employees in supporting the university’s academic and administrative activities.
“A clearer employment status is expected to encourage greater professionalism, integrity, and commitment to providing the best service for the academic community,” explained Prof JJ.
Prof JJ further stressed that education staff hold a very important position in ensuring that the university’s operations run well. A great university, according to the Rector, is built not only by lecturers who excel academically but also by education staff who work with high dedication.
“Your role is not merely a supplement, but a core part that keeps this university alive and running in an orderly, professional, and reliable way,” added Prof JJ.
This large-scale appointment of employees is part of the institution’s strategy to ensure the availability of human resources that match the needs of work units. With a stronger staffing structure, the university is expected to improve the quality of both academic and administrative services.
Besides strengthening human resource capacity, the policy also aims to provide legal certainty regarding employees’ employment status, while opening room for improved welfare. According to Prof JJ, the university must grow as an institution that is oriented not only toward academic achievement but also toward the welfare of the human resources that sustain it.
The breakdown of participants in the event is as follows:
- Civil Servants (PNS) sworn in: 13 people, out of a total of 345 prospective civil servants (CPNS) for Budget Year 2023
- Permanent Non-Civil Servants (NPT): 167 people, consisting of 163 lecturers and 4 education staff
- Government Employees with Work Agreements (PPPK) inaugurated and sworn in: 5 people, out of a total of 149 PPPK health workers for Budget Year 2023
- Prospective Permanent Non-Civil Servants (CNPT): 337 people
- Non-Permanent Non-Civil Servants (NPTT) education staff: 393 people
These figures show the campus’s commitment to strengthening its staffing structure while ensuring the availability of professional and sustainable human resources to support institutional development. (*/mir)
