Abstract

Cyberloafing is a collection of work-related behaviours in which an employee engages in electronically-mediated activities, notably through the use of the internet, that are unrelated to their job duties. The development of communication technology has become a blessing in disguise for employees’ work performance, and over the years, organisations have tried to improve work-related activities that would have an impact on their employees’ work performance and also deal with how they cope with the usability of the internet. This paper aims to review and analyse cyberloafing with regards to the use of social platforms on work performance in previous studies conducted in Saudi Arabia. The findings demonstrate that increasing educational activities on an hourly basis has a favourable impact on work performance, whereas reducing time spent on social media networks increases time spent on work-related activities and hence increases work performance. Employers should create a balance between work and leisure time for their employees to ensure more productivity as technology makes people spend more time on their devices. Hence, work-leisure policies will be crucial in improving work performance and maintaining discipline during working hours.

Abstract

The study aims to analyze the influence of CEO characteristic factors on indications of financial statement fraud using the Beneish Model. Based on the upper echelon theory, this study proposes six hypotheses which are tested using logistic regression analysis. This study uses secondary data derived from financial statements or annual reports of mining companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange from 2015 to 2019. The results of this study show that CEO characteristics in the form of CEO age, educational background, and work experience cannot be used as indicators that can detect financial statement fraud. Meanwhile, some other characteristics that are still the focus of this study, such asCEO’s gender, tenure, and nationality havean influence on indications of financial statement fraud. So, it can be concluded that the CEO characteristics that have a link in detectingfinancial statement fraud can be considered fraud prevention efforts.

Abstract

Humans play an important role in an organization. Humans, according to their responsibilities in an organization, are divided into leaders and followers. Both leaders and followers create a dynamic environment that produces organizational culture. This paper aims to emphasize the imperative need for leaders and followers to act with integrity. Tone at the top has proven to be an effective antidote to corruption, while followers must also be able to protect their leaders from asymmetric information that could lead them to unfair decisions. The method used in this paper is a literature study and comparative analysis applied in private companies in South Tangerang and public offices in Jakarta. The results of this study demonstrate the importance of integrity for both leaders and followers in achieving an anti-corruption organization.

Abstract

Indonesia was shocked by the disclosure of a scandal in a corruption case involving a prominent company engaged in aviation services. This is closely related to the public’s question regarding how and to what extent the internal audit function within a company can fight against corruption and create an anti-fraud culture within the company itself. In fact, the phenomenon of internal auditors in eradicating corruption and creating an anti-fraud culture in a corporation can create two sides of a knife with common interests. These interests are supported by one side of the internal auditor and another in terms of culture and regulations that are less supportive of creating anti-fraud and anti-corruption. Two main factors that weaken the internal auditors the lack of integrity due to conflicts of interest between internal auditors and company employees, and the lack of individual capabilities in the technological era. Various ways can be done by the Government and stakeholders, as regulators, to optimize the role of internal auditors in eradicating corruption and creating an anti-fraud culture.
