6. The Importance of Minimizing Cyberloafing Behavior in Village Apparatus Employees

Riza Bahtiar Sulistyan 1, Budiyanto 2, Suhermin 3

DOI: https://doi.org/10.56293/IJMSSSR.2025.5506

ABSTRACT: This study aims to analyze cyberloafing behavior among employees in Lumajang Regency, as well as the factors that affect it. In addition, this study also evaluates the impact of cyberloafing on work productivity and the effectiveness of organizational policies in overcoming this phenomenon. This study uses a qualitative approach with data collection methods in the form of in-depth interviews, direct observations, and documentation studies related to internet use policies in the work environment. Data analysis was carried out thematically to identify patterns of cyberloafing behavior and its supporting factors. Data triangulation is applied to ensure the validity of research findings. The results of the study show that cyberloafing in Lumajang Regency occurs in various forms, especially the use of social media, watching videos, and other online activities during working hours. The main factors that drive this behavior are unrestricted internet access, lack of supervision, and employee perception that cyberloafing does not have a significant impact on work. These findings are consistent with previous research suggesting that cyberloafing can reduce productivity if left uncontrolled, but also serves as a stress reduction mechanism. Therefore, a more balanced policy is needed between supervision and freedom of employees in using the internet. Strategies such as access time restrictions, time management training, and strengthening internal regulations can help control cyberloafing without sacrificing work comfort.

7. EMPLOYEE JOB SATISFACTION: THE CASE OF TURKISH SMES

Evren AYRANCI

DOI: https://doi.org/10.56293/IJMSSSR.2025.5507

ABSTRACT: This study scrutinizes job satisfaction factors of employees working at small and medium-sized enterprizes (SMEs) in Beylikduzu Organized Industrial Zone (OIZ) in Istanbul, Turkey. It is debated that reliance on a single construct may fail to get a peripheral picture of the job satisfaction, and therefore a multi-construct approach was facilitated by involving multiple related instruments. This peripheral picture is also reinforced by emphasizing all such enterprizes in any sector to overarch the reliance on sector-specific job satisfaction data. The initial findings point out that there are four factors that totally constitute job satisfaction; job characteristics, contentment, support and treatment, and materiality. Further evidence reveals that technical and financial aspects of job satisfaction go on before psycho-social aspects.

DOI: https://doi.org/10.56293/IJMSSSR.2025.5515

ABSTRACT: This study explores age-related effects on Financial Literacy (FL), Personal Financial Management (PFM), and Utilization of Financial Products (FPU) among members of Y-Save Multi-Purpose Cooperative in Uganda. Different age groups categorised as young adults (18-30 years), middled adults (31-50 years) and older adults (Above 50 years) exhibit different FL levels and financial behaviours towards PFM. The study utilised a mixed-methods approach, combining a quantitative online survey of 322 members analysed using descriptive and inferential statistics with a qualitative document review of relevant Y-Save Multi-Purpose Cooperative reports that were selected purposively. The study was guided by the following hypotheses: (i)There is no significant difference in FL among different age groups of members of Y-Save; (ii)There is no significant difference in PFM among different age groups of members of Y Save; and (iii) There is no significant difference in FPU among different age groups of members of Y Save. The findings showed that there was a statistically significant difference in Financial Literacy and PFM among different age groups while there was no significant difference with FPU. The document review indicated that Y-Save had been carrying out FL and PFM programs, however, there was need to measure the extent of involvement of the different age groups. The findings indicated low FL and PFM among the young adults as compared to their counterparts. All age groups were utilizing the available financial products with the loan product having been consistently utilised over the years. The recommendations include; providing FL programs for young adults below 25 years and 25-35years on savings, budgeting, investing, managing debt and risk diversification. These constituted about 70% of the population, and the revitalization of the share capital product.

Randy B. Baguio & Romel C. Nemino

DOI: https://doi.org/10.56293/IJMSSSR.2025.5522

ABSTRACT: The study undertook a comprehensive and dual perspective study on retirement readiness, which was an existing study undertaken to study the level of preparedness, variations that are significant, and the predictors for retirement preparedness amongst personnel in public and private HEIs. A quantitative research method specifically descriptive correlational design is utilized in the conduct of this study. In addition, Multiple Linear Regression was employed to calculate the impact of financial planning and preparations, as well as financial knowledge and behavior, on retirement readiness among HEI public and private employees co-occur with the utilization of mean to assess the significance of financial knowledge and behavior, financial planning and preparations, and retirement preparedness among HEI's private and public employees. Based on the outcome generated in this study, the private group reported a moderate level of preparedness, with the mean score 3.31, while the public group viewed themselves at a higher scale, with a mean score of 3.44. The composite grand mean value of 3.38 indicates, therefore, a moderate level of retirement preparedness across the board. Furthermore, the findings depict that employees still face significant shortcomings in financial management even though they make a concerted effort to save for retirement by investing compensation proceeds, developing a positive outlook on retirement, and reducing potential financial hardships. The study indicated moderate progress in financial planning and preparations, with slightly more preparedness by the public sector than that by their private sector counterpart.

23. Legal Protection Regulation for Healthcare Professionals in Private Hospitals in Indonesia from the Perspective of Justice Values

Muhammad Purnomo 1, Gunarto 2, Sri Endah Wahyuningsih 3 and Anis Mashdurohatun 4

DOI: https://doi.org/10.56293/IJMSSSR.2025.5523

ABSTRACT: Private and public hospitals have the responsibility to maintain the quality of healthcare services, which is one of the key factors in fulfilling the public's right to health. Since hospitals provide services, they must ensure patient satisfaction. Therefore, actions that prioritize public interest are necessary to deliver genuinely good services to the community. Legal protection for healthcare professionals in hospitals is crucial. This research aims to analyze and identify the regulations concerning legal protection for healthcare professionals in private hospitals in Indonesia that are still lacking in fairness, based on the values of Pancasila justice. The research method adopts a positivist paradigm, using doctrinal legal research with a normative juridical approach. The primary data source is secondary data obtained through a literature review of various regulations related to the healthcare profession. The data is analyzed qualitatively using deductive logic. The research findings indicate that the legal protection regulations for healthcare professionals in private hospitals in Indonesia still face issues of injustice and inadequacy. Although Law No. 17 of 2023 has acknowledged the critical role of healthcare professionals and granted them certain rights, its implementation remains hindered, particularly in terms of legal responsibilities and protection against professional risks. Healthcare professionals play an essential role in healthcare services, yet existing regulations do not fully protect them from legal risks arising from medical actions. Therefore, additional balanced regulations are needed to better protect healthcare services as a profession. Weaknesses include a lack of coordination between the government, hospitals, and professional associations, as well as limitations in monitoring legal protection in private hospitals. This encompasses attitudes, awareness, and compliance among the public, especially healthcare professionals and hospital management, toward regulations.

Data was collected using structured questionnaires. Data was analyzed using Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 25.0 and descriptive statistics and inferential statistics were used in analysis. Descriptive statistics showed that respondents agreed that workload affected the motivation of teachers in Kajiado County, Kenya. Regression analysis showed that workload affected motivation positively and significantly (β = 0.125, Sig. = 0.047). The study concludes that a manageable workload ensures teachers can dedicate ample time to lesson planning, grading, and providing individualized support to students and recommends allowing teachers to take emergency leave days as it is essential for addressing the human and personal aspects of their lives, promoting well-being, and maintaining a positive and supportive school environment.
