Telework in Administrative Management within the Framework of the SDG, in a Peruvian Public Institution

Objective: The objective of the research was to determine the influence of teleworking on administrative management in a Peruvian public institution. The same one that is associated with the Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) “Promote inclusive and sustainable economic growth, employment and decent work for all.” Theoretical framework: Teleworking consists of tasks carried out without the physical presence of the worker, using computer and telecommunications means for control and supervision. This requires the employer to provide the necessary resources and manage technological dependence and ownership of the results. Method: It was a basic study, with a non-experimental cross-sectional design. The sample was made up of 100 employees of a Peruvian public institution. The technique applied was the survey and a structured questionnaire was used for each variable. Results and Discussion: A p value < 0.000 was found, which shows that there is a significant influence of teleworking on administrative management, showing an influence of 24%. Research implications: Teleworking in the Peruvian administration improves implementation by reducing operating costs in the public sector, offering flexibility to collaborators, increasing productivity and allowing the hiring of talent without geographical limitations. Originality/value: Teleworking in the administrative management of public institutions in Peru has been little researched, which makes this study an original contribution, since most previous research has focused on other contexts.

An Analysis of the Law Governing Enforceability of the Reports of the Controller and Auditor General in Tanzania

Abstract Auditing public entities is crucial in ensuring that accountability, and transparency in the management of public resources. The paper examines whether there are any weaknesses in the laws weakening the implementation and enforceability of the CAG’s Reports in Tanzania. The findings indicate that the Government of Tanzania has consistently demonstrated a lack of effectiveness in implementing the reports given by CAG, leading to repeated mismanagement of public monies and other resources inside public entities. It is submitted that the amendment of the law regulating the functioning of the CAG is inevitable in order to enhance the enforcement of the Controller and Auditor General ‘s Reports. This paper argues that if the Annual General Report on the audit of Public Authorities, which highlights inefficiencies in the management of public institutions as reported by the Controller and Auditor General, is not implemented and enforced, the audit reports remain meaningless.

Job burnout and its influencing factors among primary healthcare workers during the COVID-19 epidemic in Guangzhou, China, 2021–2022: from the perspective of institutional operation and management

BackgroundThe purpose of this study was to explore the job burnout of primary healthcare workers in Guangzhou during the prevention and control of COVID-19 epidemic and its influencing factors from the perspective of institutional operation and management in 2021–2022.MethodsA cross-sectional study involved 866 primary healthcare workers from different districts of Guangzhou, China. The Chinese version of the Maslach Burnout Inventory-General Survey (MBI-GS) was utilized to assess job burnout. From the perspective of organizational operation and management, the possible causes of job burnout among primary healthcare workers during COVID-19 have been categorized into 7 major aspects. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were conducted to identify influencing factors for job burnout in primary healthcare workers.ResultsThe detection rate of job burnout among primary healthcare workers was 78.29%. Men (OR = 2.39) and whose institution was located in urban–rural fringe (OR = 1.56) were more likely to detect job burnout. Conversely, institution heads showed a lower risk of job burnout. From the perspective of institutional operation and management, workers who were not satisfied with personnel management (OR = 2.41), materials and vehicles (OR = 2.89), subsidies and compensation (OR = 2.18), humanistic care (OR = 2.11), superior management (OR = 8.32) were found to have a higher risk of job burnout.ConclusionThe detection rate of job burnout among primary healthcare workers in Guangzhou was relatively high during the period of COVID-19. When there is another sudden major epidemic, the managers of institutions can focus on and deal with the problems related to the operation and management of institutions such as personnel management, materials and vehicles, subsidies and compensation, humanistic care, and superior management, so as to provide logistical support for the workers and alleviate their job burnout.

Исследования динамики медицинской эффективности функционирования лечебно-профилактических учреждений региона с использованием индекса Малмквиста

The paper provides assessments of the dynamics of the medical efficiency of the functioning of medical institutions in the Khanty-Mansiysk Autonomous Okrug in the period from 2013 to 2021 using the Malmquist index. Purpose of the study. The purpose of the study is to analyze the dynamics of the values of medical efficiency of the functioning of medical institutions of the Khanty-Mansiysk Autonomous Okrug - Ugra, united on an administrative-territorial basis, using the Malmquist index together with shell data analysis. Materials and methods. Direct assessments of the medical effectiveness of these institutions were carried out using shell data analysis. The set of input and output data of the analyzed institutions characterized the effectiveness of the provision of medical services in inpatient and outpatient settings of the institutions. The multiplicative decomposition of the Malmquist index made it possible to analyze the nature and level of influence on its values of such factors as technological changes in the subject area, the efficiency of the management of medical institutions and changes in their scale, i.e. volumes of medical services provi¬ded. Results. Based on the results of the study, it was established that changes in the values of the technological component of the decomposition of the Malmquist index have the greatest influence on changes in the medical efficiency of the functioning of medical institutions. The decomposition component, which characterizes the efficiency of the management of these institutions, is practically neutral. This indicates that the management of regional medical institutions has accumulated quite a large and successful management experience. The influence of the scale component depends on fluctuations in both the volume of medical services provided and the number of medical personnel in institutions. This was especially evident during the pandemic, characterized by strict quarantine restrictions. Conclusion. The use of the Malmquist index and the component of its multiplicative decomposition allows external and internal stakeholders to not only assess the medical effectiveness of the functioning of medical institutions, which is important from he point of view of their use of allocated funding, but also to identify the bearers of “best practices” in terms of the development and implementation of technologies provision of medical services, management of a medical institution and adaptation to changing internal and external conditions of its functioning.

Readiness for sustainable accreditation management in higher education institutions: A mixed-method study in Indonesia

Obtaining an excellent accreditation rank in various study programs has become an urgency for universities in Indonesia because accreditation rankings are believed to have an impact on the provision of quality education. However, not all universities are able to achieve an excellent accreditation rank for all of the study programs they manage. This research aims to determine the readiness of the accreditation teams in managing accreditation in various study programs. The mixed method is used, with an explanatory sequential design. The participants involved are university leaders and accreditation teams in various study programs. The research results showed that an excellent accreditation rating cannot be achieved with ordinary organizational behavior but requires great effort, care, and commitment from both the leaders and the accreditation team. It also requires active and comprehensive participation from the academic community. The excellent rank in accreditation can only be obtained with superior effort and care. It is suggested that the readiness of the leaders and accreditation teams to manage accreditation optimally is a crucial aspect in achieving an excellent rating. In conclusion, there are at least three important aspects to consider in the accreditation process in order to achieve an excellent rank: the need to achieve the highest assessment, the effort and care needed to significantly impact the highest assessment, and the institution needs to ensure a quality culture through quality assurance and the International Organization for Standardization (ISO).

The Gaps Between Institutional and Practical Disaster Risk Management Measures on Coastal Flood Risks in South Korea’s Coastal Communities

Global warming and climate change significantly increase the frequency of coastal floods caused by sea level rise (SLR) as a permanent factor and hydrometeorological hazards as tentative factors. The combined risks will affect coastal communities. South Korea is gradually facing SLR risks, mainly in its southern coastal regions; however, disaster risk reduction (DRR) in coastal regions remains fragmented. This study aimed to investigate the status of DRR for coastal communities in South Korea by looking at government practices and testimonies from residents. This study reviewed DRR-related regulations and documents and collected data from interviews with local government officials, field visits, and informal conversations with residents in six coastal communities. The findings show that the coastal communities were less resilient to coastal floods than to other hazards, such as typhoons and heavy rains, and the potential consequences could be expanded due to demographic challenges, fragmented institutional systems, and low risk awareness. Moreover, this study emphasized the necessity of an integrated approach to reducing the impact of coastal floods caused by both SLR and other factors. It also highlighted the importance of coastal community engagement in local DRR activities through increasing risk awareness and adapting to environmental change based on appropriate risk information disclosure by the government. The impacts of coastal floods triggered by SLR and other hazard factors can be reduced by aligning practical regulatory measures with adaptive strategies and enhancing the disaster resilience of coastal communities.

Turning universities into data-driven organisations: seven dimensions of change

AbstractUniversities are striving to become data-driven organisations, benefitting from data collection, analysis, and various data products, such as business intelligence, learning analytics, personalised recommendations, behavioural nudging, and automation. However, datafication of universities is not an easy process. We empirically explore the struggles and challenges of UK universities in making digital and personal data useful and valuable. We structure our analysis along seven dimensions: the aspirational dimension explores university datafication aims and the challenges of achieving them; the technological dimension explores struggles with digital infrastructure supporting datafication and data quality; the legal dimension includes data privacy, security, vendor management, and new legal complexities that datafication brings; the commercial dimension tackles proprietary data products developed using university data and relations between universities and EdTech companies; the organisational dimension discusses data governance and institutional management relevant to datafication; the ideological dimension explores ideas about data value and the paradoxes that emerge between these ideas and university practices; and the existential dimension considers how datafication changes the core functioning of universities as social institutions.

Economic Institutional Empowerment Model as A Climate and Energy-Independent Village Based on Local Wisdom

Village development from the perspective of community empowerment is to increase community participation in institutions by utilizing economic potential resources and local wisdom. The purpose of the research is to analyze and design a model of economic institutional empowerment at the location of Sambak Village, Kajoran Subdistrict, Magelang Regency, Central Java Province as a productive and innovative village that was awarded the Climate Village and Independent Innovation Champion. The research used a qualitative method with Participatory Rural Appraisal (PRA) which is relevant for constructing reality through observation, dialogical interviews, documentation, and Focus Group Discussion (FGD). Research informants were selected purposively, namely administrators and members of Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSME’s) and Village-Owned Enterprises (VOE), village government, and empowerment activists. PRA research analysis obtains data construction, reduction, and categorization which can then design empowerment programs or models. The results showed that Village governments need to create and run economic institutional empowerment programs in partnership with educational institutions and empowerment activists so that VOEs and MSME’s become integrated institutions. The empowerment programs needed are institutional management, administration, finance, promotion as well as digital marketing. Sambak Village can become a model and destination for an energy-independent productive and innovative Eduwisata.

INFLUENCE OF INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY ON INTERNAL CONTROL SYSTEMS IN TERTIARY INSTITUTIONS IN OSUN STATE, NIGERIA

The study examined how information technology affects internal control systems in tertiary institutions in Osun State. Specific goals were to ascertain whether or not information technology has a significant impact on the internal control systems and internal audit processes of tertiary institutions. A survey research design was chosen. A sample size of 100 respondents participated in the study. This study used the stratified sampling method and a regression technique was used for data analysis. The findings showed that internal control systems and internal audit procedures in tertiary institutions in Osun State were highly influenced by information technology with t= 20.02 P< 0.0 and t= 19.049p<0.05, respectively. It was concluded that internal control systems and internal audit procedures at tertiary institutions were strengthened and improved by information technology. The study has recommended that tertiary institutions adopt information technology in order to improve their internal control frameworks. To keep their staff’s necessary skills and knowledge current, the management of tertiary institutions should encourage both on-the-job and off- the-job training in information technology. To stop fraud, internal control mechanisms should be put in place. To establish who will be held accountable for violations, tasks must be digitally separated effectively.

음주운전방지장치 부착 조건부면허 도입에 따른 정책적 및 기술적 고려사항에 관한 연구

Last year, there were 214 deaths from drunk driving traffic accidents in Korea, this rate is very high for 7.8% of all traffic accident deaths. Looking at the average drunk driving recidivism rate over the past five years, 44.5% of drunk drivers were repeat offenders. Despite the strengthening of drunk driving enforcement and punishments, drunk driving problems are still serious in Korea. In order to eradicate habitual drunk driving, an amendment to the Road Traffic Act about the legislation of alcohol ignition interlock device was passed last year in Korea, and it will be introduced in October of this year. In order to operate this system following the legalization of alcohol ignition interlock device effectively, the Road Traffic Act enforcement decree and enforcement rules must be established, and an operation manual must be also developed in accordance with Korean circumstances. To this end, this study was performed to identify policy issues and technical problems resulting from the introduction of alcohol ignition interlock device and to minimize them before operating this system targeting drunk driving repeat offenders. Policy issues were included the double punishment, privacy invasion due to excessive log data collection, operating costs, prior education programs and alcohol dependence of drunk drivers. Technical issues were also reviewed by considering National Police Agency standards, installation and operation management organizations and/or institutes, ignition prevention by proxy, log data management, system security, override function, and blood alcohol concentration display method. Finally, the limitations of this study and the implications of future researches were discussed. This study might be helpful to reduce alcohol related to traffic accidents effectively using an alcohol interlock system in Korea if policy makers can review these considerations closely.

RESPONSIVENESS AS A DEFINING PRINCIPLE OF PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION IN THE MODERN CONDITIONS OF STATE-BUILDING

The article deals with responsiveness as a defining principle of public administration in the modern conditions of state-building in Ukraine. The author emphasizes the need to study responsiveness as a methodological tool for analyzing modern public administration. Responsiveness is defined as receptivity to the opinions, complaints and suggestions of users of management services by introducing and implementing changes in the organizational structure, culture and model of management services. Responsiveness is also the ability of the institutional management system to respond promptly to the challenges of the social environment, to the demands of internal and external influential policy actors. It is proved that the democratization of all processes of public life depends crucially on the effectiveness of the dialogue between the state and society, which is specified primarily as the relationship between people and authorities. This is where the question of whether and to what extent the government hears the voice of the people becomes most acute. The authors identify certain features of the responsiveness of the public administration system in Ukraine in the form of a set of contradictions and problems of social development. The authors emphasize that ensuring the principle of responsiveness requires harmonization of domestic reforms with world and European events and taking into account current global trends. The analysis suggests that responsive governance creates a reservoir of goodwill that is formed through support, and this reservoir facilitates the adoption of difficult and sometimes unpredictable decisions. The reservoir of goodwill creates space for responsible decision-making and constructive cooperation at different levels of government, as citizens who are satisfied with the political system are more likely to accept that government sometimes has to make decisions based on long-term responsibility rather than short-term reactions.

Self-Assessment of the Intercultural Competences of Medical Doctors and Nurses in Poland in the Face of Current Refugee Challenges

Health care is one of the most important systems in both society and the economy. At the same time, it is a highly complex system that is subject to an increasing number of challenges in the contemporary world. For example, the health care system in Poland struggles primarily with inadequate numbers of nurses and medical doctors, as well as insufficient funding. A relatively new challenge is to provide for the health needs of refugees, whose number is increasing due to the war in Ukraine beyond Poland’s eastern border. This raises the question of the substantive preparation of nurses and medical doctors to work in a culturally diverse environment. Have they had the opportunity to train in intercultural competences? How do they assess their own intercultural competences? Do they see challenges in their interactions with foreigners? The aim of this paper is therefore to present a self‑assessment of the intercultural competences of medical doctors and nurses in Poland, in particular in the context of current refugee challenges. In order to achieve the assumed goal, a proprietary questionnaire form was created, and a nationwide survey was conducted among a group of professionally active medical doctors and nurses. The results of the research, in addition to providing valuable knowledge, were used to draw up specific recommendations for improving the continuing education of medical and nursing staff in the area of intercultural competences. Based on the research results, guidelines for better management in public health organisations were also created. This text may be of interest to researchers of management in public health care organisations, and in particular human resources management in health care institutions, as well as practitioners trying to deal with the current problems facing public health management.
