Implementation of Dividend Policy in Sharia Fund Sources

Sharia banks are financial entities that act as part of the economic sector in a country. Evaluation of the value of shares is crucial in the company's journey. Dividend policy has an important role in determining share value, creating a balance between current dividend distribution and retained earnings to maximize share value. In this context, there are two main options regarding the management of net income after tax: first, distribution to share owners as dividends; second, reinvestment as retained profits. Therefore, dividend policy is an important basis in dealing with how after-tax profits are treated, whether as dividends or reinvestment. This is a key element in the company's strategy to maintain and increase the value of its shares.

Sustainable development goals and corporate strategy: A map of the field

AbstractThe Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), adopted by the United Nations in 2015 as a universal call to action to end poverty, protect the planet, and ensure peace and prosperity, call on companies everywhere to advance sustainable development through the investments they make, the solutions they develop, and the business practices they adopt. This research work carries out a systematic review of the previous literature related to the adoption of SDGs as a corporate strategy in companies, that shows an exponential increase in the papers related to this topic during the first years after the adoption of the 2030 Agenda. Our findings show that the economic dimension of sustainability has lost lightly interest in the academic world since then, with the spheres of governance and society being predominant, without forgetting the field of protecting the planet, especially about the fight against Climate Change (SDG13/ESG). And despite the importance of the 2023 Agenda for the future of the world, even today there are few reference authors in this field of study.

Customer Product Choice: The Effect of Product Quality on Relative price and Price fairness and their implication on Customer Product Choice

This study examines the influence of product quality on individuals' perceptions of relative prices and price justice, as well as the potential consequences for consumer decision-making in product selection. This study employs robust statistical analysis to get insights into customers' decision-making processes when purchasing products and selecting brands, particularly about product attributes and pricing. The study employed a non-parametric Structural Equation Modeling PLS technique, which involved a sample of 100 consumers who had previously consumed cigarette goods in the urban area of Bandung. The questionnaire was distributed through social media platforms, utilizing a Google Form link. The employed sample method is convenience sampling, wherein clients are requested to complete a structured questionnaire that has been supplied. The poll encompassed inquiries about participants' perceptions regarding the quality of the product, its comparable pricing, and the appropriateness of the price. The survey data were subjected to rigorous statistical analysis, encompassing several analytical techniques such as regression analysis and hypothesis testing. The study's findings indicate that a product's quality plays a substantial role in shaping consumers' evaluations of comparable prices and perceptions of price justice. Consumers tend to make product selections predicated upon their subjective quality assessment, shaping their perception of the product's price. The presence of excellent product quality can mitigate price barriers, as customers exhibit a greater propensity to pay elevated costs for things they believe to possess superior quality. Furthermore, this study demonstrates that comparable costs and the perception of price justice influence consumer product choices. This condition highlights the significance of prudent pricing within a company's marketing strategy, whereby competitive and equitable pricing can catalyze consumers to opt for specific products. However, a further noteworthy discovery is that the relative pricing and price reasonableness factors do not influence customers' brand preferences. This condition suggests that when considering the choice of a brand, several elements, such as brand image, individual preferences, or distinctive brand characteristics, may exert a more significant impact. The correlation between product and brand compatibility plays a significant part in consumers' decision-making process when it comes to selecting a brand. The findings of this study offer significant implications for businesses in enhancing their marketing and pricing strategies. Furthermore, they contribute to a more comprehensive comprehension of consumer decision-making processes within the product and brand choices framework. In order to achieve success in a competitive and dynamic business climate, it is imperative to possess a comprehensive comprehension of the various elements that impact consumer decision-making.

Effects of a behavior-based safety observation program: Promoting safe behaviors and safety climate at work.

Behavior-based safety (BBS) programs promote coworkers observing and correcting each other's at-risk behaviors on site; the idea behind BBS programs is to create a cultural shift in a company where it is acceptable for coworkers to stop anyone, at any time, from working in an unsafe manner. The main objective of this study is to examine the impacts of a BBS observation program in the construction industry. The subject, an electrical contracting company, implemented the BBS program in January 2019. This study utilized multiple data sources: the company's incident data, BBS program report data, and surveys, including the Safety Climate Assessment Tool for Small Contractors. A total of 3,891 at-risk behaviors from the BBS reports, including 600 comments, and 141 survey responses were analyzed. The most frequently reported at-risk behavior was the line of fire, and the at-risk behaviors were often observed when workers conducted tasks, such as running or pulling wires, installing devices, and installing lights. The overall perception of safety climate was high, and the respondents reported that the safety climate had improved since the adoption of the BBS program. Overall, implementing the BBS program benefited in cultivating the company's collective safety climate. As a result of the BBS program, the company implemented better communication strategies for their safety meetings on the most frequently reported at-risk behaviors, replacing safety gears with higher quality ones, and redesigning online safety training to better reflect the identified tasks that were associated with more at-risk behaviors.

RELEVANCE: The possibility of a reasonable choice of an alternative strategy for the organization of maintenance and repair (M&R) of the power company's equipment is a guarantee of the successful implementation of its strategic priorities. The tasks in this direction are quite relevant.PURPOSE: To develop a unified methodology that, from the general standpoint of a risk-based approach, would allow comparing two alternative strategies for managing the assets of an energy company "by periodicity, operating time" and "by technical condition", according to a set of key criteria for the effectiveness of M&R.METHODS: When solving problems, methods of forming and adjusting schedules for repairs of electrical equipment, calculating reliability and probabilities of failure in the power supply system of consumers, taking into account its circuit features, assessing the technical condition of equipment according to non-destructive testing and diagnostics, comparing the costs of maintaining and restoring reliability and damages from its violations were used.RESULTS: A risk-oriented methodology has been developed and verified, which makes it possible to evaluate and select the optimal equipment maintenance strategy for the energy company according to uniform efficiency criteria. An algorithmic implementation of the developed methodology is obtained, which is the basis of a computing complex for choosing and making decisions. The verification of the methodology and algorithm is carried out on the example of a real object – a power supply system for oil production consumers using reliable operational and diagnostic information.CONCLUSION: The results obtained fully compensate for the lack of methodological possibilities in comparing two basic alternative strategies for electrical equipment maintenance based on a single risk-based approach. The developed methodology is a unified decision-making tool at the stage of alternative analysis. The illustration of the methodology by a real numerical example demonstrates the consistency of the solutions obtained with the results of expert assessments and operational experience.

Reviewing executive remuneration decision-making and reporting: implications for theory and practice

PurposeThe purpose of this viewpoint is to comment on the implications of the Financial Reporting Council’s (FRC) Review and Consultation Documents expected to update regulation governing the determination/reporting of executive remuneration in UK stock market listed companies. Practical points from actors involved in executive remuneration decision-making/reporting are presented, set within the context of neo-institutional theory.Design/methodology/approachThis qualitative research systematically analyses UK Corporate Governance Codes, the FRC’s recent Review/Consultation and peer-reviewed published studies of executive pay determination based on in-depth interviews with non-executive directors, institutional investors, executive pay advisers and human resources (HR) professionals.FindingsFurther regulation, while providing coercive influence over executive remuneration decision-making, is likely to lead to only limited change in processes and reporting due to benchmarking, the make-up of Remco membership and shareholders' preferences. Mimetic and normative isomorphic forces work against coercive isomorphism leading to resistance to change as decision-makers strive to safeguard their social status/reputations.Practical implicationsReviewing executive remuneration package components and paying attention to company strategy, sustainability and values in pay determination are welcomed but recognised as difficult to achieve. Drawing upon a wider range of information sources/voices can assist in broadening the discussion. HR professionals can help widen stakeholder input to executive remuneration decision-making.Originality/valueThe authors’ viewpoint is grounded in peer-reviewed empirical data that draws directly upon the views/experiences of executive remuneration decision-makers to identify problems in adhering to FRC recommendations for change. The authors extend the meta-theoretical perspective of neo-institutional theory – specifically institutional isomorphism – as providing explanatory and predictive power to understand executive pay decision-making.

Impact of Work from Home on Employee Work and Life

Work from Home has become an increasingly common working mode in the modern working environment. The COVID-19 pandemic moved a significant shift to working from home (WFH), and it has become the only option for many industries to keep their business running. This sudden shift makes us wonder whether home working is a positive or negative change. However, many studies have analyzed the economic benefits and productivity impacts of telecommuting. There is still a limited exploration of how it affects employees' quality of life, work-life balance, family relationships, and mental health. The research aims to examine the impact of home from work on employees' quality of life and its acceptance. First, I explored employees' acceptance of telecommuting and its possible implications for work-personal life balance. Then, I examined whether prolonged time spent with family in a home-based work environment strengthened parent-child and couple bonds or increased relationship friction and tension. Ultimately, this study assessed home-based work's positive and negative effects on employee mental health and identified key factors that may increase or decrease psychological stress. While the economic and productivity benefits of telecommuting have received extensive research attention, there is a gap in how it affects employee quality of life. This research provides novel and in-depth analyses in this area. It suggests strategies for companies, policymakers, and other stakeholders to meet employees' needs better and, in turn, enhance their job satisfaction and productivity. Given that home-based work is becoming an ongoing work pattern, a deeper understanding of its long-term impact on employees' quality of life will provide valuable insights for society to help them adapt more smoothly to this work pattern.
