<h3><span lang="EN-US">This study was conducted to analyze human resource management strategies and safety culture as competitive advantages to improve company performance in the construction industry in Indonesia and to identify related factors to achieve competitive advantage in the construction industry. Primary data were collected by distributing questionnaires to 174 construction companies in Indonesia. The results of SEM data processing using the Lisrel software show that recruitment, selection, performance management, compensation, and training and development that are integrated with safety culture can be a competitive advantage and can improve the performance of construction companies in Indonesia. Future studies can use this strategic human resource management model in different industrial sectors by increasing the number of samples so that the research results can be generalized to the intended population.</span></h3>

Research in several countries from different continents related to human resources in construction continues to be developed. However, one fact shows that human resources in Indonesia's construction field are still not ready to compete in terms of quality with the workforce of several countries in Asia. This research was conducted to determine the condition of Human Resource Management in the construction company in Indonesia. Data retrieval instruments use questionnaires and structured interviews at 50 randomly selected construction companies from different Indonesian regions. The data obtained is processed using quantitative data analysis using parametric statistics analysis. The results showed that Human Resource Management in Indonesia's construction company is in good or excellent condition provide 92%. This indicates that most of this industry has enforced and implemented policies related to this management. However, human resource planning patterns in Indonesia's construction company focus more heavily on Operational Planning, which means that this planning on construction companies in Indonesia is still project-oriented or short-term.

The construction sector lags other industries when it comes to the implementation of sustainability. This paper highlights some of the key barriers in implementing sustainability within the construction industry sector and proposes recommendations to address them. The paper suggests that the four main barriers faced by the construction industry in implementing sustainability are unclear definitions of sustainable construction, ineffectiveness of sustainability reporting tools (SRTs), slow adoption of ‘green’ technology and the negligence of human resource management. This paper provides an original perspective and challenges current practices (or lack thereof) which hinders the successful implementation of sustainability in construction. It will be of interest to project owners, contractors, academics and other construction practitioners who are interested in the outlook of sustainability within the property and construction industry.

While environmental sustainability has been the subject of much debate in the last decade, it was not until recently that attention started to shift towards human resource management as an enabler for sustainability.  Yet, this is still a relatively under researched area.  Much is still unknown about the role of an individual worker in contributing towards sustainable development.  This paper addresses the gap by proposing a framework to measure sustainability competencies of employees within the construction industry sector.  As part of the framework, four proficiency levels together with relevant descriptions are defined for a total of eight sustainability competencies.  Suggested proficiency levels are then mapped to main construction related jobs based on the framework.  An example is also given to illustrate the manner in which competencies should be assessed.  This framework is original and of practical use to construction managers and human resource practitioners.

Performance evaluation is one of the human resource management activities that is important for achieving the goals of the construction industry company. This study aims to analyze the financial performance of BUMN industry companies that go public on the Indonesia Stock Exchange. An evaluation of financial performance was carried out on PT WaskitaKarya (Persero) Tbk, PT Wijaya Karya (Persero) Tbk, PT Adhi Karya (Persero) Tbk, and PT Pembangunan Perumahan (Persero) Tbk in the period of 2015-2018. The results showed that the profitability, solvency and liquidity tests stated that the four BUMN were able to produce large profits, with a gross profit margin that was far above the industry average. The gross profit margin value is in the range of 93.522%-101.436%, far above the industry average of 30%. However, the ability of the company to make a large gross profit is burdened by sales costs and a large interest rate, so that the net profit margin decreases, ranging from 2.848%-9.468%. The results of the evaluation of solvency and liquidity show that the four companies are inadequate in using their debts to finance all of their assets, as well as having a low ability to repay their debts. Keywords:Construction companies, Evaluation of financial performance, Profitability, Solvency, Liquidity.
