Abstract

Malaysian Small and Medium Enterprises’ (SMEs) Sustainable Business Practices (SBP) effort remains limited despite embracing SBP can address stakeholder expectations, minimize their social and environmental footprint over the long term. Hence, this paper identifies the factors that could enhance SBP in the Malaysian SMEs context. This study utilized a systematic review of previous studies on SBP specifically for SMEs. This study limited the literature search to journals published between 2019 and 2024 and excluded non-English articles, reports from consultancy firms, master’s and doctoral theses and government reports. The results showed that government initiatives, Human Resource Management (HRM) practices, firm and owner characteristics, technology integration and financial resources influence SBP. It contributes to the body of knowledge by providing a theoretical framework on how the factors can significantly influence the effectiveness and success of SBP in the Malaysian SMEs. This paper also identifies key gaps and potential areas for further research, specifically on the existing and future aspects of SBP in the Malaysian SMEs.

Abstract

The increase of electronic gadgets and appliances has led to a higher amount of mobile electronic waste (e-waste). Despite that, the awareness among Malaysian users regarding mobile e-waste recycling remains deficient. Our reviews clearly show that users’ awareness on mobile e-waste recycling is to assess their understanding and knowledge level based on the Knowledge, Attitudes and Practices (KAP) model proposed by Schwartz (1976). Further, mobile e-waste recycling intention and motivation is closely linked to an individual’s environmental mindset, incentive strategies, environmental education, convenience and disposal cost. Additionally, Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) and Non-Government Organizations (NGOs) have introduced various methods, platforms and practices on mobile e-waste recycling. There is no clear review of mobile e-waste recycling among Malaysian users, driving this study conducts a review of Malaysian users’ awareness and perception, intention, motivations, methods and platforms on mobile e-waste recycling. This study helps the policy makers to enhance information dissemination of mobile e-waste and support Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) namely clean water and sanitation (goal 6), sustainable cities and communities (goal 11), responsible production and consumption (goal 12). This study helps to detect the limitations of the Malaysian users on advancing awareness for more sustainable mobile e-waste recycling.

Abstract

The determinants of information sharing intention are identified in this paper (i.e., managerial support, interpersonal trust, and reciprocity). Data were collected from questionnaires from academicians in the Malaysian private universities. Multiple regression analysis was performed to test the analysis. Management support, interpersonal trust and reciprocity positively influence knowledge sharing intention. The results revealed management support, interpersonal trust and reciprocity play significant roles in determining academicians’ knowledge sharing intentions. Based on the insights of social exchange theory, this study discovered that strong effects of managerial support, interpersonal trust, and reciprocity on information sharing intention. Hence, social exchange theory is extended to the knowledge sharing intention among academicians’ universities. For the university to encourage knowledge sharing intention, they may improve their current management style and maintain a work environment that encourages employees to trust each other.

Abstract

This study is an extension of previous studies focusing on new venture digitalization. It examines the influence of the drivers of new venture digitalization on small and medium enterprises (SMEs). Using a systematic literature review, the study developed a conceptual model to examine the drivers of new venture digitalization among Malaysian SMEs. The findings reveal the extent to which organizational factors such as size, ownership and international experience of firms can influence Malaysian SMEs’ new venture digitalization. It also indicates that individual and environment factors such as age, gender, and education; government intervention, competitors and customers pressure, Covid-19 health crisis, blockchain technology and fast broadband access have the potential to drive Malaysian SMEs’ new venture digitalization. The study contributes to models on new venture digitalization and provides a better understanding of general and country specific factors that drives the utilization of digitalization in new ventures.

Abstract

Human resource management (HRM) appears to have a favourable impact on organisational performance. However, HRM in the tourism business is defined by ad hoc and short-term initiatives, and as a result, the industry typically has a negative image of employment practises and circumstances. Thus, this paper looked at how the role of HRM in Malaysian hotels changed before, during, and after the COVID-19 outbreak. The main ideas for the investigation of HRM in both crises and the tourist and hospitality industry are introduced in a theoretical review. Theoretical review presents HRM has a variety of good outcomes, including improved corporate and financial performance, increased employee motivation, and lower voluntary staff turnover. It was discovered that the tourism business issues with a negative image of employment practises and circumstances when it comes to HRM. Despite the fact that employees represent the sector, HR practises are ad hoc. In recent years, the tourism business has undergone changes, but these changes have been happened slowly. Low salaries, unsocial hours and shift tasks, poor or non-existent career structures and restricted prospects for development, informal recruitment practises, or high levels of staff turnover, according to the literature, HRM faces a variety of challenges in the business.
