Abstract

East Java has a high number of MSMEs, around 9.7 million, of which around 80% still need to be halal certified. (https://radarmalang.jawapos.com/) Besides that, most of East Java’s population is Muslim, 97.21% or around 39.85 million people out of 40.994 million people. (https://databoks.katadata.co.id/) This fact has led to the intensive socialization of the importance of all MSMEs pocketing halal certificates, following government policy that halal certificates are no longer volunteers but are mandatory. So all business actors are encouraged before 2024 to have a halal certificate. The purpose of the study is to describe and analyze the level of understanding of halal certification of MSME Business Actors and to analyze the effectiveness of halal certification in improving the business ethics of MSME Business Actors, which emphasizes the nature of social reality. These phenomena arise in MSMEs and focus on subjective human experiences as research informants. The phenomenological approach is expected to describe naturally the various things related to all MSME activities. The study results describe the understanding of halal certification of MSME business actors. Based on the results of interviews with 13 informants, on average, around 80% of informants understand halal and haram and know halal certification and its impact. The existence of halal certification is also very effective in improving the business ethics of MSME business actors, with indicators that business actors are truly responsible, honest, and full of awareness of maintaining halal products.
