Solving Human Resources Management Of Construction Labors Using Mobile Community Network

Abstract

A construction labor works on a project based on a
determined interval time. If the construction project is done
then the labor has to find another one. Based on the
interviews conducted to some construction labors in Banda
Aceh and Medan, they depend totally on the networking and
friendship among the labors in finding a project. sOn the
other hand, the labors can survive only for seven days if he is
not working. The proposed solution is developing a job
search system for the construction labors using mobile
application. This system is built using JavaME, Record
Management Store (RMS) as the storage media, and Short
Message Service (SMS) as the data connection. This system
applies distributed system thus it will not cause the process
becomes slow because the limited memory of the cellular
phone. This system provides the construction labors
specification which is needed by the employer and the list of
construction labor specification. Job searching will be
processed again once the labors done with a project. In this
way, the construction labors will continually contracted with
a project. Using this system will solve the problem faced by
the construction labor in finding a project and finally achieve
their economis growth.
