Abstract

Objective: This study discusses the importance of job crafting and workplace spirituality on the impact of role overload, which in turn leads to increase job performance. There is a limited previous research on job crafting and workplace spirituality, especially in the microfinance institutions. Research Design & Methods: Our research seeks to gain further understanding of the overall work overload occurrence, so we choose samples from microfinance institutions that can be expected to show excessive roles because of character of their work that is frequently in high pressure. Data collected from 119 questionnaires were analyzed using PLS-SEM with SMART-PLS software. Findings: The results showed that employees experienced work overload of both quantitative overload (feeling of any more work than the available time allocation) and qualitative overload (sense that the work requires skills, abilities and knowledge beyond the capacity of the individual), yet failed to show the role of workplace spirituality as a moderating variable. Implications & Recommendations: Future research can be carried out at larger institutions or industries and a larger number of samples for the sake of generalization and work overload occurence related to certain industrial situations. Contribution & Value Added: Our main contributions lie on the proposition that job crafting and workplace spirituality play a role in eliminating the impact of work overload. This study reinforces role evidence of job crafting and workplace spirituality on the impact of role overload.

Abstract

Objective: This study aims to examine how entrepreneurial characteristics and business experience influence business sustainability, with the perception of ease of use acting as a mediating variable in the context of financial technology adoption. Research Design & Methods: The study used a quantitative approach, targeting a population of MSMEs in potential sectors in Jepara Regency. A purposive sampling technique selected 190 MSMEs, including those using fintech services. Structural equation modelling (SEM-PLS) is used to analyse results by using partial least squares (PLS) to test both direct and indirect relationships between variables. Findings: The analysis results show that both entrepreneurial characteristics and business experience have a positive and significant direct effect on sustainable business practices. In a roundabout way, the perception of ease of use was found to mediate the effect of business experience on sustainable business practices, but this wasn’t the case for the entrepreneurial characteristics variable. Implications & Recommendations: The implications of the results of this study emphasize the importance of the ease of use of fintech services for MSMEs for business development. Contribution & Value Added: This study contributes to the development of the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) by integrating entrepreneurial characteristics, business experience, and perceived ease of use to explain MSME sustainability through fintech adoption. The findings highlight that perceived ease of use strengthens the effect of business experience on sustainability, while entrepreneurial characteristics have a direct influence on sustainable business. These results provide practical insights for improving fintech services and digital literacy among MSMEs.
