Abstract

This study examines the influence of green innovation, customer collaboration, and brand activism on the competitive advantage of organic food micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) in Jakarta. With increasing consumer demand for environmentally friendly and ethically produced goods, MSMEs face the challenge of aligning business practices with sustainability and social values. A quantitative research design was applied using survey data from 150 MSME owners and managers. Respondents completed a structured questionnaire measured on a 1–5 Likert scale, and data were analyzed using SPSS version 25. The results show that green innovation, customer collaboration, and brand activism each have a positive and significant effect on competitive advantage. Green innovation emerged as the strongest predictor, emphasizing the importance of eco-friendly practices in differentiating products and improving operational efficiency. Customer collaboration also contributed positively, highlighting the role of co-creation and consumer trust in sustaining market relevance. Similarly, brand activism significantly enhanced competitive advantage, reflecting that MSMEs advocating for sustainability and social causes build stronger loyalty and brand differentiation. The findings contribute to the literature on sustainable entrepreneurship and provide practical implications for MSMEs in developing competitive strategies that integrate innovation, customer engagement, and socially responsible branding.

Abstract

This systematic literature review integrates global evidence on how work–life balance (WLB) affects employee performance (EP). This synthesizes peer-reviewed articles and policy and organizational reports to surface patterns, contradictions, and gaps. Overall, WLB enhances productivity, engagement, and organizational citizenship via resource conservation, motivation, and supportive leadership–culture alignment, whereas chronic imbalance heightens stress, burnout, absenteeism, and turnover. Effects vary by context: technology enables flexibility yet risks boundary erosion; gendered caregiving loads and institutional scaffolding shape access and impact; and cultural norms around presenteeism condition uptake. High-impact practices combine flexible work, fair workloads, family-supportive supervision, childcare support, and right-to-disconnect norms.

Abstract

This paper examines the practices of Sharia cooperatives in Indonesia through an Islamic law perspective, focusing on their adherence to Sharia principles, the effectiveness of existing legal frameworks, and the operational challenges they face. Utilizing a comprehensive literature review, the study reveals that while Sharia cooperatives aim to provide ethical financial solutions, many struggle with compliance due to inadequate understanding of Islamic finance, regulatory ambiguities, and governance issues. The findings highlight the importance of enhancing regulatory clarity, establishing robust Sharia supervisory bodies, and fostering continuous education among cooperative managers and staff. By addressing these challenges, Sharia cooperatives can better align their practices with Islamic law and contribute to the broader Islamic finance ecosystem in Indonesia.
