Abstract

This study investigates the influence of the Provincial Minimum Wage (MW) and education level on changes in worker status in Lampung Province, using Gross Domestic Regional Product (GDRP) as a control variable. Changes in worker status are defined as individual transitions in the labor market from 2021 to 2022, numerically coded as follows: employed-to-employed (3), employed-to-unemployed (1), unemployed-to-employed (2), and unemployed-to-unemployed (0). The analysis uses microdata from the National Labor Force Survey (NLFS), consisting of 22,999 respondents across all regencies/cities in Lampung Province. This study uses VAR and VECM models to examine short and long term relationships among the variables. The findings reveal that the minimum wage (LOGMWt) does not significantly influence changes in worker status in either the short or long term. Education shows varied effects: lower (EDUC1) and higher (EDUC3) levels have a significant negative impact, while middle education (EDUC2) has a significant positive effect. Meanwhile, LOGGDRP positively and significantly affects worker status changes in both time frames. These results underscore that improvements in EDUC2 and LOGPDRB play a more in facilitating labor market transitions than minimum wage policy alone.

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to see how cultural, social, personal and psychological factors can shape consumer decisions in Purworejo Regency in purchasing PE goats. This study used a quantitative approach with a sample size of 110 respondents. Data analysis was carried out through multiple linear regression, t-test and F-test. The results showed that simultaneously the four factors had a significant effect on purchasing decisions for PE goats. However, partially, only social and psychological factors had a significant effect, while cultural and personal factors did not show a significant effect. This finding emphasizes the importance of a marketing approach that considers the influence of the social environment and psychological drives of consumers in purchasing decisions. The implications of this study indicate that an understanding of social and psychological factors can be utilized to strengthen product promotion and communication strategies in the PE goat farming sector.

Abstract

This study explores employment development strategies aimed at bolstering economic growth in North Sumatra Province using the Vector Autoregression (VAR) model and an eighteen-year time series dataset. The variables analyzed include the Human Development Index (HDI), total population, Gross Regional Domestic Product (GRDP), Labor Force Participation Rate (LFPR), and Open Unemployment Rate (OUR). The estimation results reveal dynamic interrelationships among these variables over short, medium, and long-term periods. The VAR analysis with a lag of 2 illustrates how each variable contributes to both itself and the other variables. It also shows that past variables (t-1) significantly impact current variables. Furthermore, the response function analysis identifies how a change in one variable is responded to by others across different time horizons. Stability analysis confirms that all variables maintain medium-to-long-term stability over a five-year period. The Forecast Error Variance Decomposition (FEVD) highlights HDI, population, and GRDP as the most influential variables in shaping the employment system and economic development overall. The VAR model used meets the stability test criteria, making the findings a reliable basis for policy research.

Abstract

During the COVID-19 pandemic, women in Bangladesh encountered higher financial crises than men. This aggravated pre-existent gender disparities in employment, income, and resource consumption. Therefore, the study investigates the extent to which the pandemic exacerbated discrepancies. It provides remedies based on proliferating electronic commerce networks. Furthermore, data from the World Bank, International Labor Organization, and UN for Women was gathered to evaluate the gender-based impact of COVID-19 on economic opportunities within Bangladesh, influencing e-commerce from an economic perspective across Bangladesh. The research findings reveal that Bangladesh possesses the potential to encompass electronic commerce within economic settings and empower women to engage in economic projects. Furthermore, the research recommends focusing on different cultural and policy settings to create further economic opportunities in Bangladesh. Future studies should attempt to study the effects of infrastructure and cultural norms on e-commerce and its potential to bridge the gender gap across varying regional settings.

Abstract

This study investigates the impact of education on the economic empowerment of women in Lampung Province during the 2019 to 2023 period. Despite advancements in educational access, significant gender disparities persist in Indonesia, particularly in Lampung, affecting women's participation in the workforce and political decision-making and contributing to wage gaps. This research aims to analyze how different levels of education influence women's political participation, their involvement in the labor force, and the proportion of their wages relative to men. Employing a quantitative descriptive approach with panel data regression analysis, the study utilizes secondary data from the Central Statistics Agency (BPS) and the National Labor Force Survey (SAKERNAS) across 15 regencies/cities in Lampung. Key findings reveal that while higher education (university level) significantly boosts women's labor force participation and wage proportion, secondary education (SMA) plays a more dominant role in fostering political engagement. Furthermore, the study confirms a persistent gender wage gap, with men's participation having a larger impact on wage proportion. These results underscore the critical role of education in women's empowerment and advocate for targeted policies to enhance educational access, promote equitable wages, and address systemic discrimination to achieve sustainable gender equality in Lampung

Abstract

This study examines how Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) performance influences financial distress, incorporating cost of debt as a moderating variable. Financial distress is proxied by the Interest Coverage Ratio (ICR), reflecting a firm’s capacity to satisfy interest payments. The empirical sample consists of 655 firm-year observations of non-financial companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange from 2014 to 2023. Panel regression with fixed effects and heteroskedasticity-consistent estimation (Panel EGLS with cross-section weights) is employed to analyze the data. Results indicate that ESG performance exerts a positive and statistically significant effect on ICR (β = 0.1189; p < 0.01), implying that firms with robust ESG practices are better able to service their debt and thus face lower financial distress. Additionally, the interaction term between ESG and cost of debt yields a negative and significant coefficient (β = −0.9714; p < 0.05), suggesting that elevated financing costs attenuate the beneficial impact of ESG on financial resilience. These findings are consistent with stakeholder theory, which advocates that proactive engagement with stakeholders enhances corporate stability, and trade-off theory, which underscores the necessity of balancing debt advantages against financial risk. This research contributes to the literature by demonstrating the conditional effect of cost of debt on the ESG–financial distress nexus. From a managerial perspective, the study underscores the importance of integrating ESG initiatives with cost-efficient funding strategies to mitigate financial distress risk and foster sustainable, long-term value creation.

Abstract

This research explores the influence of customer satisfaction on the financial performance of Perumda Tirtanadi, with a particular focus on the digital service system as a moderating factor. The study is driven by the growing urgency for digital innovation in public service sectors, particularly in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, which significantly altered customer engagement patterns. A quantitative method is adopted, employing Partial Least Squares–Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) using the SmartPLS 4 software to process the collected data. The analysis demonstrates that both customer satisfaction and digital services have independent and significant positive effects on financial outcomes. However, the interaction between these two variables does not show a statistically significant moderating effect. These findings underline the value of digital infrastructure as a strategic internal resource that supports financial growth. Nevertheless, the minimal moderating impact suggests that a portion of customers either lack access or sufficient skills to effectively utilize the available digital platforms. This study adds to the current body of knowledge by examining the interplay between digital transformation and customer satisfaction in shaping financial performance, framed through the Resource-Based View (RBV) theory. The research suggests that improving digital literacy and promoting better adoption of digital tools among customers is essential to fully capitalize on the benefits of technological advancement. Furthermore, it highlights the need for continuous training and support to ensure that all customers can engage with digital services effectively, thereby enhancing overall satisfaction and financial performance. By addressing these gaps, organizations can foster a more inclusive digital environment that benefits both the customers and the service providers.

Abstract

The study aims to examine the influence of word of mouth (WOM) and customer relationship management (CRM) on customer loyalty at PT Garuda Sertifikasi Indonesia, with customer delight serving as a mediating variable. This research is motivated by the increasing competition among certification service providers, which requires companies to implement effective strategies to retain and satisfy their customers. The target population in this study encompasses the entire client base of PT Garuda Sertifikasi Indonesia, totaling 429 individuals. The sampling technique used was Hair’s formula, resulting in 70 respondents. Data were collected through questionnaires, interviews, and documentation. A path analysis technique was used to analyze the data to determine direct and indirect effects between variables. The findings indicate that both WOM and CRM positively influence customer loyalty. Effective word-of-mouth strategies help build the company’s reputation and trust, while CRM ensures consistent communication, better service, and long-term customer engagement. The research also found that WOM and CRM positively affect customer delight. Customers who experience exceptional service and personalized attention tend to be more satisfied and emotionally connected to the brand. Furthermore, customer delight was proven to have a significant positive impact on customer loyalty. It also acts as a mediating variable, strengthening the effect of WOM and CRM on loyalty. This means that delighted customers are more likely to remain loyal and advocate for the company. The results of this study emphasize the importance of maintaining strong relationships and exceeding customer expectations in order to build sustainable loyalty. This research contributes valuable insights for service-based companies in enhancing marketing and customer retention strategies.

Abstract

This research investigates the strategic role of the National Amil Zakat Agency (BAZNAS) of Cirebon City in fostering economic independence among mustahik (zakat recipients) through productive zakat programs that incorporate digital technology. The focus of this study is to explore how BAZNAS' empowerment initiatives go beyond simply providing capital by integrating structured business mentoring and facilitating digital transformation to stimulate entrepreneurial progress. By employing a qualitative approach with a case study framework, the research examines the real impact of BAZNAS' programs on the livelihoods of mustahik. Data for the study were gathered through semi-structured interviews with 12 mustahik participants, program coordinators from BAZNAS, and local field facilitators. Additionally, observations during entrepreneurship workshops and analysis of official documentation provided supplementary data to strengthen the research findings. The study reveals three key outcomes: increased access to business capital for productive ventures, a growing adoption of digital tools in the operations of micro-enterprises, and enhanced financial independence achieved through business development. The findings show that BAZNAS Cirebon City has effectively contributed to improving mustahik's business management skills, expanding their access to digital markets, and supporting sustainable entrepreneurship. These efforts align with the broader goal of zakat-based empowerment, especially in the context of digitalization. The study emphasizes that the integration of digital tools is vital to empower mustahik and increase their productivity, as it enhances their ability to reach broader markets and manage their businesses more efficiently. Furthermore, the research offers practical recommendations aimed at expanding digital literacy among mustahik, promoting technology-based entrepreneurship, and improving the delivery of digital financial services within zakat distribution programs. These recommendations seek to enhance the overall effectiveness of zakat-based empowerment initiatives in the digital age.
