International Journal of Business, Economics and Social Development (IJBESD) is published 4 (four) times a year and is the flagship journal of the Research Collaboration Community (RCC). It is the aim of IJBESD to present papers which cover the theory, practice, history or methodology of Business, Economics and Social Development. However, since Business, Economics and Social Development are primarily an applied science, it is a major objective of the journal to attract and publish accounts of good, practical case studies. Consequently, papers illustrating applications of Business, Economics and Social Development to real problems are especially welcome.

Abstract

This study examines the impact of the digital economy on employment and workforce structure in Indonesia. The digital economy in Indonesia is growing rapidly, driven by e-commerce, digital financial services, app-based transportation, and artificial intelligence-based technology, with a projected contribution of more than USD 130 billion by 2025. Using a mixed-method approach, this study analyzed data from 200 respondents consisting of workers in the digital economy sector and traditional sectors affected by digitalization, as well as in-depth interviews with 15 representatives of workers, business actors, and policy makers. The results showed that 68% of respondents considered the digital economy to increase job opportunities, although 40% of respondents admitted that digitalization also caused job losses in certain sectors. Changes in the workforce structure are seen in the increasing need for technology skills (45%), digital marketing (35%), and digital business management (30%). The main challenges faced by workers include lack of digital skills (50%), uncertain income (40%), and lack of social security (35%). This study recommends strengthening digital skills training programs through collaboration between the government and the private sector, developing regulations for protecting digital workers, and increasing financial inclusion for digital economy workers. This study contributes to a more comprehensive understanding of workforce transformation in the digital era and provides strategic input for policymakers in managing the workforce transition towards an inclusive and sustainable digital economy.

Abstract

Currently, major telecommunication sub-sector companies in Indonesia are experiencing rapid growth and have become dominant players in the market. However, not all telecommunication companies are profitable, as some dominant subsidiaries have experienced declining profits or losses, potentially leading to financial distress. Financial distress is a condition where a company is unable to meet its current obligations, such as trade payables, tax liabilities, and short-term debts. This study aims to analyze and evaluate the accuracy of the Ohlson O-Score and Zmijewski methods in detecting financial distress in telecommunication companies in Indonesia. The data used in this study are historical financial data from several telecommunication companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange. The results show that the Ohlson O-Score is effective in early detection of potential financial distress, while the Zmijewski method is more effective in evaluating companies already in critical financial conditions.

Abstract

This research aims to evaluate the financial performance of companies that go public in the banking sector by prioritizing the role of profitability variables in determining the value of the company. The indicators used are ROA and ROE which are important indicators used to measure the level of profitability and efficiency of a company in managing its assets and equity. In this study, quantitative data was obtained from the financial statements of several banks listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) in a certain period. To test the relationship between Return on Assets (ROA), Return on Equity (ROE), and company value, multiple regression analysis was used. The results show that ROA has a significant effect on company value, while ROE does not show a significant influence. These findings emphasize the importance of the role of banking management in optimizing ROA to increase the company's value in the eyes of investors.

Abstract

The skincare industry is undergoing a swift transformation, driven by advancements in active ingredients and technology, resulting in fierce competition as new brands emerge. In this digital landscape, product quality and Electronic Word of Mouth (e-WOM) serve as pivotal forces in cultivating customer loyalty. This study seeks to investigate the influence of these two factors on customer loyalty in skincare products available at Sociolla Cirebon. Employing a quantitative research method with an associative approach, the study surveyed 150 respondents selected through purposive sampling. Data collection was conducted via a structured questionnaire encompassing three principal dimensions: product quality, e-WOM, and customer loyalty. A series of statistical analyses were performed, including validity and reliability assessments, multicollinearity and heteroscedasticity tests, multiple linear regression analysis, partial significance testing (T-test), simultaneous significance testing (F-test), and the coefficient of determination (R²) test. The findings reveal that both product quality and e-WOM exert a significant and positive effect on customer loyalty, with an R² value of 0.943, indicating that these variables account for 94.3% of customer loyalty, while the remaining 5.7% is influenced by other factors. These results underscore the necessity of integrating superior product quality with a well-managed e-WOM strategy to fortify customer allegiance in an increasingly competitive market. Consequently, businesses should continuously enhance product quality and strategically utilize e-WOM to sustain and improve customer retention.

Abstract

The objectives of this study are to examine the mediating role of value creation innovation in the relationship between organizational performance and the independent variables digital transformation and strategic agility. This study employs a quantitative research method with a nonprobability sampling approach and purposive sampling technique, targeting first-level and middle-level managers as the unit of analysis. The final sample consists of 156 respondents with data collected cross-sectionally. The collected data were analyzed using SmartPLS version 4. The results indicate that value creation innovation plays a full mediating role in the relationship between digital transformation and strategic agility on organizational performance, as the estimated mediation effect is greater than the direct effect. Theoretical implications of this research highlight that incorporating value creation innovation as a mediating variable strengthens the impact of digital transformation and strategic agility on organizational performance. The limitations of this study are that the respondents are only companies in bonded zones whose numbers are limited, with variables and research methods that are still limited. Future research should consider expanding the sample to include companies beyond bonded zones, integrating additional exogenous variables into the research model, and employing qualitative or mixed methods approaches to gain deeper insights.

Abstract

In this research, we look at how using Online Food Delivery Service (OFDS), social media, and digital wallets on progress of culinary Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in Cirebon City. As digital technology develops, MSMEs are required to adapt to improve competitiveness and business sustainability. Using methods from multiple linear regression analysis, this study took a quantitative approach, involving 369 respondents from a total of 4,830 culinary MSMEs in Cirebon. According to the findings, all three factors significantly and favorably affect the development of MSMEs. Social media acts as an effective marketing tool to increase visibility and interaction with customers. OFDS facilitates consumer access to MSME products without the need for physical stores, thus expanding the market and improving distribution efficiency. Meanwhile, digital wallets simplify transactions, increase payment security, and help with financial record-keeping. With these findings, the study suggests that MSMEs should increasingly actively utilize digital technology to expand markets and improve operational efficiency. The implications of this research can serve as a reference for businesses, government, and digital service providers in support of MSME growth in the digital era.
