Green human resource management practices have been “the talk” when people start to focus on going green. Organizations prefer to use practices that can actually generate eco-innovations that could result in reducing of costs and wastes. The purpose of this chapter is to further investigate whether the implementation of green human resource management would actually help boost working mother performance. Twenty working mothers participated in the survey. The number of participants may be small, but knowing that these practices were not yet implemented in Brunei Darussalam, data are acceptable for testing. To conclude, only a few participants were aware of green human resource management and agree that implementing it would give positive impact towards their performance.
Mother is a person who has many task and responsibilities daily. In addition, as a working mother, tasks and responsibilities are double and triple, for instance task and chores at home and task at the organization. Total quality management is practices and procedures that organizations use in order to enhance or improve the performance of the employee or the organization. Performance of working mothers is said to be not satisfactory, and their performance may drop after having babies. Some organizations and their colleagues don't seem to be helpful to working mothers after rejoining the workforce right after maternity leave ended. Some organization from other countries provide work-family support policies in order to help these working mothers to balance their lifestyle as mother and as an employee. Some researchers claimed that working mothers tend to have very happy children whilst underperforming in the organization. This chapter seeks to investigate the perception of working mothers on their performance after the implementation of total quality management.
Mothers have multiple roles. Mothers prepare food, clothe, bathe their kids, clean the house, taking care of their husbands and families. With these, it was already tiring and required proper time management. Working mothers added another responsibility. Some parents would prefer to send their kids to school at an early age. Then COVID-19 hits in 2019 and suddenly everyone is working and studying at home. Is it a blessing to have all the family at home or a curse knowing that another burden will be added to the working mother alone? This chapter investigates how working mothers feel pre and post COVID-19. Thirty-six mothers participated in questionnaires and online pool votes. Results from questionnaires and online polls concluded that most mothers are feeling depressed and stressed during COVID-19, and allowing kindergarten to re-open actually helped working mothers since the burden of educating shifted back to the teacher.
This chapter aims to address the research gap from the previous paper on the effects of employee performance on the implementation of total quality management from the perspective of working mothers' evidence from the public and private sectors. The performance of working mothers is said to be not satisfactory, and their performance has dropped after having babies. Thirty-one working mothers participated in the survey and were filtered into 12 respondents to follow the “rule of 12” of a pilot study. Five alternative hypotheses were accepted, whereas three null hypotheses were accepted. Study shows that implementation would help improve the performance of working mothers even though the evidence is not strong enough to support it but can be accepted due to the presence of correlation between variables. A few research gaps were solved and addressed, and a few were not discussed and will be used for future research.
Cryptocurrency has been around since 2008 when Satoshi Nakamoto issued a white paper. Satoshi also claimed to be the creator and developer of Bitcoin, the first type of cryptocurrency. This research looks at Bruneians' understanding of Crypto-currencies, their perceptions, and their awareness and acceptance of cryptocurrency in Brunei Darussalam. This research used questionnaires as a method of gathering data. Who would have thought that cryptocurrency was known to almost all levels of age, it did not only focus on higher education respondents, and that the fact it was male-dominated? Cryptocurrency in Brunei is not widespread yet. The awareness of cryptocurrency in Brunei is deficient because information is inadequate. Bitcoin is yet to be the most well-known cryptocurrency. Cryptocurrency is seen as an asset instead of currency by the general public. Information primarily obtained is mainly from social media, family, friends, word of mouth, and press releases from AMBD.
