Purpose—This research examines how compensation and work motivation impact employee performance at the Secretariat of the Provincial Legislative Council's Representative Board of East Java Province. Additionally, it explores the role of leadership style as a moderating factor in these relationships. Design/methodology/approach — The study employs moderated regression analysis to assess the relationships between compensation, work motivation, and employee performance, with leadership style as a moderating variable. The sampling technique used is saturated sampling, involving all 163 population members as respondents to ensure comprehensive data collection and analysis. Findings — The research findings indicate that both compensation and work motivation positively and significantly affect employee performance. However, the moderating effect of leadership style on the relationships between compensation and employee performance and between work motivation and employee performance was found to be weak. Practical implications — Organizations should continue to focus on improving compensation and work motivation strategies to enhance employee performance. While leadership style may not significantly moderate these relationships in this context, it remains essential for creating a supportive work environment. Further investigation into different leadership styles or additional factors might provide more insights into strengthening the moderating effect. Originality/value — This study provides valuable insights into the impact of compensation and work motivation on employee performance in a specific governmental context. It also contributes to understanding the role of leadership style as a moderating variable, highlighting areas for future research and practical applications in managing employee performance.

Method: To raise a meaningful discussion about the meaning of joint cost in the field of CSR, through which an accurate definition can be developed regarding it, this study adopted the following concepts: 1) Overlapping CSRs; 2) The real sacrifice; 3) Independent legal personality; 4) Untargeted social or economic benefits; 5) Mixed costs resulting from loaning fixed assets and providing non-material assistance such as advisory services, construction and maintenance works, etc. By adopting the possible behavior method and supporting justifications, the researcher will discuss all expected scenarios regarding disclosing these costs in the financial statements.

Purpose — This research aims to investigate the impact of system quality and service quality on user satisfaction, specifically examining the mediating role of usage frequency in an online registration information system for hospital queues. Design/methodology/approach — This research used an analytic observational design with a cross-sectional approach. Data were collected from 96 patients attending a Private Hospital in Malang City from May to July 2022. The data were analyzed using multiple linear regression and path analysis, including the Sobel test and causal step. Findings — The results of this research indicate that neither service quality (t-test statistic = -1.458, t-stat < 1.96) nor system quality (t-test statistic = -0.448, t-stat < 1.96) directly affected user satisfaction through usage frequency. This suggests that usage frequency does not mediate the relationship between service quality, system quality, and user satisfaction. Practical implications — This research highlight the importance of service quality and system quality in online registration application services. Improving these aspects could enhance user satisfaction, even though usage frequency may not directly mediate this relationship. Originality/value — This research contributes to the understanding of factors influencing user satisfaction in online registration systems for healthcare services. The findings suggest that service providers should focus on improving system quality and service quality to enhance user satisfaction, independent of usage frequency.

Originality/value — It is one of a few studies focusing on the purchasing behaviour of men, particularly in emerging economies, despite the growing concerns of men about their appearance.

Abstract Purpose – This study examines the effect of information and communication technology (ICT) disclosure and corporate social responsibility (CSR) in the digitalization process on company value. Design/Methodology/Approach – This study employed the quantitative content analysis method by collecting and qualitatively analyzing data from the company website followed by quantitative data analysis. The sample of the study was 41 banking companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange during the 2021 period selected using the criteria-based sample selection method. This study used multiple regression analysis. Findings – Research results showed that ICT disclosure on the website in the digitalization process has a positive effect on company value. ICT disclosure on company websites can inform the stakeholders that the management has optimized its resources and implemented innovative business models, improving the efficiency, quality, and consistency of business processes to build a good reputation in the eyes of investors and potential investors. However, CSR disclosure on the company websites has a negative effect on company value due to some issues. Firstly, CSR information disclosed on the company's website is potentially ineffective in increasing operational profitability in the short term. Secondly, banking companies have not properly allocated CSR funds or companies have over-invested in CSR activities. Thirdly, it was found that CSR disclosure during the pandemic had no impact on stock returns. Overall, this study further showed that the disclosure of ICT and CSR complies with the principles of signaling theory because the information serves as a signal concerning the company’s condition to investors which further affects the company’s value. Practical Implications – This research provides a practical contribution for both investors and management. The investors acquire a new source of information in investment decisions making in addition to financial statements, namely such information from non-financial disclosures such as ICT and CSR through easily accessible media. Furthermore, managers gain a new perspective in understanding the potential of ICT and CSR disclosures on websites. Managers need to focus and carefully consider the concept of quality and quantity of information disclosed to the public and stakeholders since abundant information disclosure does not guarantee an increase in company value. Managers need to provide information on ICT and CSR as an approach to meet the needs of stakeholders and influence the decision-making process. Originality/Value – This study uses a banking company as the object of research, where this research is expected to assist the company in making a decision related to understanding potential of ICT and CSR disclosures that can affect firm value. Keywords: ICT disclosure, CSR disclosure, company value Paper Type – Research paper
