Abstract

The study aims to find connections between job satisfaction and different parts of the Job Characteristics Model (JCM) in Bangladesh's non-government Islamic banks. 238 bankers filled out an organized questionnaire for a quantitative research design study. The outcomes were examined using descriptive statistics, multiple regression analysis, correlation analysis, and dependability analysis. The multiple regression analysis shows that the JCM's categories can predict satisfaction well, explaining 59.5% of the total variation.  Skill variety, job identity, autonomy, and feedback practices significantly increase job satisfaction, while task significance does not. The most influential factor in determining bankers' job satisfaction was autonomy. The study shows the significance of job characteristics in determining job satisfaction among bankers in Islami Shariah-based Private Commercial Banks. To improve job satisfaction and organizational success, managers and lawmakers should consider making skills more varied, tasks more straightforward, freedom more available, and feedback more available.

Abstract

Purpose: This study aims to examine how green innovation affects organizational performance in Bangladesh's fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) industry. It explores the effects of green product innovation (GPDI) and green process innovation (GPCI) on the financial and non-financial performance of the organizations. Methodology/approach: A quantitative research design was adopted, using a structured questionnaire to collect data from 151 employees working in FMCG companies in Dhaka. Data were analyzed using SPSS through descriptive statistic, reliability analysis, correlation analysis and multiple regression analysis. Results/findings: Multiple regression analysis revealed that both types of green innovation had significant positive relationships with organizational performance metrics. GPDI was found to positively impact financial and non-financial performance. Similarly, GPCI has positive effects on financial and non-financial performance. Conclusion: The study concludes that implementing green innovation strategies is crucial for achieving sustainable competitive advantage in the FMCG sector. Integrating environmental practices in product design and production processes enhances both economic and social dimensions of organizational success. Limitations: The study is limited to only FMCG sector in Bangladesh and also include two dimensions such as green – product and process – innovations. Moreover, it relies solely on quantitative methods, rather than qualitative investigation. Contribution: This study contributes to the existing body of knowledge by empirically validating the Resource-Based View (RBV) theory in explaining how green product and process innovations enhance both financial and non-financial organizational performance. It provides valuable insights for policymakers to integrate eco-friendly strategies that promote long-term organizational resilience in the FMCG sector of Bangladesh.

Abstract

Purpose: This study investigated the relationship between workers' perspectives on career development programs, remuneration packages, and their involvement in Readymade Garment (RMG) sector policymaking. Research methodology: Using a well-structured questionnaire, 226 people from a variety of industries were surveyed. Statistical software SPSS was used to examine the data and test the hypotheses that were put forth in the study. Using a conceptual framework, the study examines the relationship between the independent variables, such as the career development program and remuneration package, and the dependent variable, worker perception. Results: The findings of the study reveal that there is a significant positive relationship between workers’ opinions regarding career development programs and participation in the decision-making process. The study also identifies that there is a significant positive relationship between workers’ opinions regarding compensation packages as well as participation in the decision-making process of RMG sector in Bangladesh. In addition, workers’ participation has a significant impact on the decision-making process of the organization. Limitations: Two hundred and twenty-six samples from the primary source were used in this investigation. Having additional samples and secondary data would help researchers better understand the clothing industry as a whole. Contribution: The researchers believe that this study contributes to the current body of knowledge by underlining the importance of workers' opinions in the decision-making process in Bangladesh's RMG sector.

Abstract

Purpose: This study investigates the relationship between workers' perspectives on communication, recognition, productivity, and their involvement in the Readymade Garment (RMG) sector policymaking. Research Methodology:  A sample of 226 individuals from the RMG sector in Bangladesh was surveyed using a well-designed questionnaire. The data were examined, and the study's hypotheses were tested, using the statistical program SPSS V.25. In IBM SPSS, the chi-square test and other statistical techniques were used to examine the data. The study investigates the relationship between the independent variables, including communication, employee recognition, and productivity, and the dependent variable, worker perception, using a conceptual framework. Results: There is a positive and significant relationship between employees' perceptions of communication and their involvement in the decision-making process. The study also shows that there is a positive and significant association between workers' perceptions of employee recognition, productivity, and involvement in decision-making in Bangladesh's RMG industry. Additionally, the organization's decision-making process is significantly impacted by employee participation. Limitations: While many studies examined the workers’ participation in decision-making in the various sectors, only a few studies have focused on the RMG sectors to explore the effects of communication, employee recognition, and productivity on the workers’ participation in decision-making. Contributions: The study reveals that the organization’s total effectiveness is reflected in how deeply workers are involved in decision-making. The degree of involvement is a key determining element since encouraging people to engage instead of just dragging them along is essential for enhancing performance and ensuring commitment.
