Problem Debt: Concept, Classification and Regulation

The article is devoted to the analysis of the concept and legal regulation of problem debts arising as a result of improper fulfillment of obligations by clients of credit institutions. In the process of analysing the types of problem debts, special attention is paid to the correlation of problem and overdue debts. Any overdue debt should be as problematic. Other debts may also be recognised as problematic if there are significant risks of default. The author comes to the conclusion that the issues of qualification of problem debts are within the competence of credit organisations. Government regulation applies to debt-related credit risks, as well as ways to collect such debt. Special attention in the article is paid to the issue of the dynamics of problem debt. Arising as a failure to fulfill a specific debt obligation, problematic debt can lead to the debtor’s insolvency, which means a change in the status and relations with other creditors. In order to ensure a balance between the rights of the creditor and the debtor, the author formulates a number of presumptions concerning problem debts.

Enhancing financial reporting quality in village-owned enterprises: The role of organizational competencies

The quality of financial reporting in village-owned enterprises (VOEs) is critical for ensuring transparency and accountability in local governance. This study explores the impact of education level, training programs, work experience, internal control systems, and information technology on the quality of financial reports in VOEs. The objective is to determine how these factors influence financial reporting quality to support effective local governance. The paper involves a sample of 120 VOE managers and employs quantitative analysis to examine the relationships between these factors and the quality of financial reporting in Indonesia. The results indicate that higher education levels, comprehensive training programs, and extensive work experience positively affect the quality of financial reporting. Specifically, the study finds that educated personnel and well-structured training programs enhance the accuracy and reliability of financial reporting. In contrast, the anticipated positive impact of IT utilization on financial reporting quality was not observed, suggesting that issues related to IT infrastructure and integration may limit its effectiveness.

Assessment of Factors Influencing Healthcare Provider’s Acceptance of Electronic Health Record in Jordanian Hospitals

Acceptance of electronic health record systems is considered an essential factor for effective implementation among healthcare providers. In an attempt to understand healthcare providers’ perceptions of electronic health record systems implementation and evaluate the factors influencing healthcare providers’ acceptance of electronic health record systems, the current research examines the effects of individual (user) context factors and organisational context factors using the technology acceptance model. A quantitative cross-sectional survey design was used, in which 319 healthcare providers from five public hospitals participated in the present study. Data were collected using a self-administered questionnaire, which was based on the technology acceptance model. Jordanian healthcare providers demonstrated positive perceptions of the usefulness and ease of use of the electronic health record systems and subsequently accepted the technology. The results indicated that they had a significant effect on the perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use of the electronic health record, which in turn was related to positive attitudes towards the electronic health record systems as well as the intention to use them. User attributes, organisational competency, management support and training and education are essential variables in predicting healthcare providers’ acceptance towards electronic health records. These findings should be considered by healthcare organisations’ administration to introduce an effective system to other healthcare organisations.

Prevention of sexual exploitation of children in sport clubs and social work in Switzerland

Abstract The Convention on the Rights of the Child, ratified in 1989, provides a clear normative basis for the protection of children from violence, abuse and exploitation. Despite efforts to protect children, many children and young people are victims of sexual violence. In the extracurricular sector, clubs offer great potential for preventing sexual exploitation. However, obstacles such as the taboo nature of the topic and the clubs’ limited resources make it difficult to develop and independently implement specific prevention offers. The aim of the project was to record the activities and competencies of sports clubs, youth associations and other youth organizations in the area of prevention of sexual assault among children and adolescents in the leisure sector and to determine the need for prevention services in the canton of Zurich in Switzerland. In addition, information was obtained on the impact of existing prevention services as well as information on their further development in terms of content and organization. Together, 979 participants from sports clubs, youth associations and youth organizations (e.g. board members, coaches, leaders) as well as the parents of children who are members of these clubs were surveyed. An impact model was developed for systematic modeling, as proposed by “Health Promotion Switzerland”. The prevention of sexualized violence is seen as a very relevant topic by sports clubs, youth associations, open child and youth work and parents. However, the current implementation of prevention measures also shows that there are still barriers to implementation and room for improvement in prevention work. Participants from all areas would particularly like support with advice on how to deal with suspected cases/incidents, the provision of information materials and the creation of a protection concept. Specific ideas for the further development of prevention work were also generated and will be discussed. Key messages • The prevention of sexualized violence is seen as a very relevant topic by sports clubs, youth associations, open child and youth work and parents. • The study reveals that prevention measures are only partially implemented and identifies barriers and facilitators for improvement.

The Impact of Undignified Branding on Organizational Stability and Long-Term Success

Branding plays a crucial role in shaping an organization's image, fostering trust, and ensuring long-term growth. However, many organizations fail to adhere to dignified branding practices, leading to far-reaching consequences that extend beyond mere promotional failure. This paper explores how the inability to maintain dignified branding reflects deeper organizational problems, including lack of vision, instability, short-term focus, poor revenue models, ineffective team management, lack of expertise, and insufficient funds. Using case studies and theoretical insights, we examine the connection between poor branding practices and organizational failure. The paper aims to provide a framework for understanding the importance of strategic branding and offer recommendations for companies to avoid the pitfalls of undignified promotion. The research highlights that dignified branding is not only essential for consumer trust but also serves as a marker of organizational competence and long-term sustainability.

Ethical Impact Assessment of Sharing Nanosafety Data

Decades of research on environmental, health and safety impacts of nanomaterials have generated large amounts of nanosafety data, but not all data are available online following the Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable (FAIR) principles. This lack of FAIR data delays progress in regulatory research, needed by regulators to develop evidence-based policies. In this context, researchers collaborating in the EU NanoSafety Cluster (www.nanosafetycluster.eu) engaged in a discussion on the ethical impacts related to (not) sharing nanosafety data. Screening the potential ethical impacts suggested that openly sharing nanosafety data relevant to risk governance of nanomaterials could give rise to ethical issues related to health and to liberties, and that these data might be misused. On the other hand, not openly sharing such nanosafety data could raise issues related to health, equity, common good, environment, and sustainability. A small-scale Ethical Impact Assessment (EIA) was performed between June 2022 and April 2024 to identify and evaluate more specific ethical issues and to propose recommendations for remediating ethical concerns. Preliminary results were presented in scientific conferences (one poster and three oral presentations), while the comments of the participants were incorporated in the final version of the presented paper. The EIA identified ethical issues and value conflicts related to the following sectors: intellectual property, social justice, public health, dual use, environmental ethics and animal ethics. Some recommendations for remediation are the competence of research organisations. Other recommendations call for societal dialogue and engagement. Yet other recommendations call for political action.

Change competence: An integrative literature review.

Organizations are in a state of continual evolution, driven by the relentless shifts in their external environments. Numerous theories have been proposed to understand the essential skills and capabilities for successful organizational change. Yet, there remains a gap in capturing a holistic view necessary to fully comprehend the dynamics of competence in today's rapidly changing landscape. This research aims to explore and consolidate the concept of 'competence' in the context of organizational change processes. Employing an integrative literature review approach, a total of 3,230 studies were screened. Out of these, 32 studies were selected based on strict relevance and quality criteria, providing a robust foundation for the analysis. The findings reveal a multi-layered nature of organizational change, highlighting that the nature and prerequisites of change vary significantly across different organizational levels. By applying a competence lens, we discern how required competence during change are not uniform but rather vary depending on whether they are applied in an operational or strategic context. This demonstrates a nuanced, level-dependent variability in change competence across the organizational hierarchy. We conceptualize 'change competence' as a dual-faceted construct. It encompasses both the capacity to leverage existing organizational competence and the adeptness to develop new competence, thereby meeting the evolving demands imposed by both internal and external drivers of change. This comprehensive understanding paves the way for more effective strategies in managing organizational change.

Well-being policies and applicant attraction: The mediating role of employer brand personality

Increasingly, (potential) employees take their well-being into account when choosing or quitting jobs. However, we do not yet know whether and how organizations can influence applicant attraction by communicating their well-being policy within recruitment materials. Based on signaling theory, we hypothesize that a well-being policy functions as a signal through which potential applicants make inferences about employer brand personality (organizational warmth and competence), ultimately increasing organizational attractiveness and application intentions. Moreover, we examine whether the content of the well-being policy matters and compare (a) prevention versus promotion policies and (b) individual-level versus organizational-level policies. Two experimental studies among samples of Belgian employed potential applicants showed that a well-being policy increased organizational attractiveness and application intentions, while organizational warmth served as an explaining mechanism. Organizational-level well-being policies elicited higher application intentions compared to individual-level well-being policies, which was mediated by organizational warmth and competence. Moreover, we found that even in the presence of another strong signal (salary information), a well-being policy is still linked to increased applicant attraction. Lastly, a well-being policy increases organizational attractiveness especially when salary is average in comparison to when salary is above average.
