Abstract

This study aims to analyze the effects of soft skills, hard skills, and work–life balance on the performance of Generation Z employees, with job satisfaction serving as an intervening variable, at PT Bank Riau Kepri Syariah, Riau Province. This research employed a quantitative approach, with data collected through a questionnaire. The data were analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling–Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS) with the assistance of SmartPLS software. The results indicate that hard skills and work–life balance have a positive and significant effect on job satisfaction, whereas soft skills do not have a significant effect. Furthermore, soft skills and job satisfaction have a positive and significant effect on employee performance, while hard skills and work–life balance do not have a direct significant effect on employee performance. The mediation analysis reveals that job satisfaction mediates the effects of hard skills and work–life balance on employee performance but does not mediate the effect of soft skills. These findings suggest that improving hard skills and implementing an effective work–life balance should be supported by enhanced job satisfaction to improve the performance of Generation Z employees. Therefore, organizations are encouraged to strengthen employees' soft skills through training programs, teamwork development, and emotional intelligence enhancement.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the influence of profitability, leverage, liquidity, and carbon emission disclosure on firm value, and examine the role of corporate governance as a moderating variable in coal subsector companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange for the 2022-2025 period. Firm value is proxied by Price to Book Value (PBV), while profitability is measured by ROA, leverage by DER, liquidity by CR, carbon emission disclosure by CEDI, and corporate governance by the proportion of independent commissioners. The study used a quantitative approach with panel data and a purposive sampling method, resulting in 108 observations. Testing was conducted using a Random Effects model with robust standard errors to address heteroscedasticity. The results show that leverage has a significant positive effect on firm value, while profitability, liquidity, and carbon emission disclosure have no significant direct effect. Corporate governance has a significant negative direct effect, but it strengthens the effect of carbon emission disclosure on firm value. Conversely, corporate governance weakens the effect of leverage and liquidity on firm value and does not moderate the effect of profitability. These findings suggest that corporate governance plays a significant role in shaping market responses to financial and non-financial information in the coal industry.

Abstract

Tax avoidance is a strategic issue in taxation because it has the potential to reduce state revenues, even though it is carried out through mechanisms that are still within the legal corridor. Various studies on the determinants of tax avoidance in manufacturing companies in Indonesia still show inconsistent results, particularly regarding the influence of sales growth, profitability, liquidity, leverage, and company size. T. The study uses a quantitative approach with secondary data obtained from the annual financial reports of manufacturing companies during the study period. The research sample was determined using a purposive sampling technique, resulting in 11 companies with a total of 44 observations. Data analysis was performed using multiple linear regression after all classical assumptions were met. The results show that sales growth, profitability, liquidity, leverage, and company size simultaneously influence tax avoidance. Partially, liquidity has a positive effect on tax avoidance, while leverage has a significant effect, with the direction of the relationship indicating that higher leverage increases the tendency for tax avoidance, as proxied by the Cash Effective Tax Rate (CETR). Meanwhile, sales growth, profitability, and company size do not significantly influence tax avoidance. The findings of this study strengthen empirical evidence that tax avoidance practices are influenced not only by a company's ability to generate profits, but also by the characteristics of its funding structure and liquidity. The research findings are expected to provide input for company management in formulating effective tax strategies and for tax authorities in developing risk-based oversight of corporate taxpayers.

Abstract

This study examines the association of perceived Meta Ads exposure and content quality with brand awareness among audiences of Kursusmengemudi.id, a client of PT Whello Indonesia Prima. A quantitative cross-sectional survey was conducted with 100 purposively selected respondents who had viewed the brand’s advertisements or followed its social media account. Data were collected through a five-point Likert-scale questionnaire and analyzed using instrument testing, descriptive statistics, classical assumption tests, multiple linear regression, t-tests, an F-test, and the coefficient of determination. Perceived Meta Ads exposure was positively and significantly associated with brand awareness (t = 3.433; p = 0.001), as was content quality (t = 4.395; p < 0.001). The regression model was statistically significant (F = 160.547; p < 0.001) and explained 76.8% of the variation in brand awareness. The standardized coefficient for content quality (β = 0.504) was larger than that for perceived Meta Ads exposure (β = 0.394), although the difference between the coefficients was not statistically tested. Within this sample, the findings indicate that digital advertising exposure and the relevance, attractiveness, clarity, and consistency of content are jointly associated with stronger brand recognition and recall

Abstract

The global effort to tackle environmental issues has garnered international momentum However, large firms have received far more attention than MSMEs. Meanwhile, MSMEs have a substantial cumulative effect on the environment Microfinance institutions provide financial and non-financial services to MSMEs, and it is considered that microfinance institutions can help MSMEs transition towards adopting environmentally friendly practices. Hence, the purpose of this study was to explore the perceived contribution of green microfinance to influencing MSMEs to implement green activities. Employing a critical review methodology, this study analyzed green microfinance literature from diverse online library databases including Elsevier, Google Scholar, PROQUEST, EMERALD, Science Direct, Research Gate, IEEE, and JSTOR. This study found that MFIs can influence MSMEs to adopt greener practices by including environmental issues into their goals, strategies, and operations. Sustainable practises were found to be also influenced by MSME owners/managers' mindsets, legislative frameworks, stakeholder pressure, competitive dynamics, perceived benefits, and consumer demand for eco-friendly products. As a recommendation the study proposes that Rural and Community Banks, savings and loans companies, and credit unions should be included in the Environmental and Social Risk Management (ESRM) regulatory framework for green financing within the banking industry to address environmental concerns stemming from MSMEs.

Abstract

Social media are being used more and more by the general public as a means of disseminating information between people. The outbreak of the coronas virus disease mobilized researchers in a variety of disciplines, as well as the governments of the countries affected by the pandemic. The digital media have played an important role not only in disseminating information, but also in communicating about the contamination, the spread and the preventive measures against this pandemic. This study, based on social science research methods and techniques, shows that social media have played an important role in disseminating information about the pandemic. The supply and demand for information took on a dizzying pace, helping to warn people about this new disease. Social media have helped to spread information about the corona virus as quickly as possible, but they have also enabled people to learn about the disease, the risks involved and how to prevent it, all of which is helping national governments with their public health programs.

Abstract

In the face of growing climatic threats, adaptation, and mitigation strategies have secured a significant place in the global discussions. In a developing country like India, adaptation is crucial to reduce the risk of grassroots communities, carrying the double burden of poverty and climatic vulnerabilities. India, the largest economy from South Asia is potential of setting an example for the Global South in terms of climate change actions. However, executing the actions requires sufficient finance flow as a pre-requisite condition. The commentary briefly offers an overview of the current adaptation finance scenario in India and identifies the major obstacles in mobilising funds to the adaptation sector. India’s adaptation finance is overdependent on the union budget due to a lack of availability and accessibility of the international multi development funds. The meagre involvement of the private sector in the adaptation financing in India puts further pressure on the limited investment capabilities of the government. The definitional ambiguity and the integrated nature of development and adaptation in India make it difficult to track the finance. The issue is further compounded by the weak governance. The resultant climate change adaptation gap provides a glimpse of this whole scenario.

Abstract

The role of individual knowledge in the development of an organization, both public and private sector organizations, shows an important role. The need for private sector workers who have knowledge drives awareness of the importance of acquiring knowledge, especially knowledge that is controlled by each individual in the organization. Employee participation in knowledge sharing activities will increase performance and productivity. The process of sharing knowledge in an organization is driven by several factors including organizational trust, self-efficacy and religiosity. This research aims to analyze and explain how religiosity is a moderating variable on the relationship between organizational trust and self-efficacy on knowledge sharing behavior variables. This research was conducted at the Village Credit Institution (LPD) in Badung Regency, Bali Province, which took a sample of 310 respondents using SPSS Version 26. The results of the research show that organizational trust and self-efficacy influence knowledge sharing behavior. This shows that the higher the level of organizational trust and self-efficacy of LPD employees will result in greater knowledge sharing behavior. This research found that religiosity is able to provide a moderating role on the influence of organizational trust and self-efficacy on knowledge sharing behavior, meaning that religiosity strengthens knowledge sharing behavior. . Religiosity is able to play a quasi-moderating role in the influence of organizational trust and self-efficacy on knowledge sharing behavior, meaning that religiosity strengthens organizational trust and self-efficacy to support knowledge sharing behavior.
