The objective of this study is to examine the effect of work ethics on work satisfaction and organizational commitment at the Sharia Bank. As many as 78 employees became respondents in the study. The data were obtained by utilizing a self-administered questionnaire and in-depth interviews, and analysed using Partial Least Squares (PLS). The findings in the study show that work ethics has a non-significant negative effect on work satisfaction while work ethics has a significant positive effect on organizational commitment. This study concludes that work ethics are very important for organizational commitment but that they cannot automatically create high job satisfaction. Work ethics and work satisfaction are not necessarily related, which might be due to the perception of fairness among the employees.
The personality of healthcare workers, including doctors, nurses, and any employee who directly provide supportive services to a patient, is vital in health service quality, contributing to the hospital’s brand image. Malaysia has successfully built that brand image attracting many Indonesians to have health treatment in this country. This study aims to examine the effect of healthcare workers’ personalities on health service quality at Malaysian hospitals. The study adopted the Big Five Traits and SERVQUAL models to measure healthcare workers’ personalities and health service quality. One hundred respondents from the families in West Kalimantan, Indonesia, who had health treatment in Malaysia, were selected to respond to the statements based on a Likert scale. The regression model was employed in data analysis in which the healthcare worker’s personality was an independent variable, and health service quality was a dependent variable. The regression test results show that agreeableness and emotional stability positively and significantly influenced health service quality at the 5% level, with each coefficient of 0.332 and 0.701. Due to less varied responses, conscientiousness, extraversion, and openness to experience did not significantly influence health service quality. That was supported by the high average index of health workers’ personalities (4.14) and hospital services (4.27), indicating that the respondents agreed with healthcare workers’ excellent personalities and health service quality in Malaysia. Each indicator in healthcare workers’ personalities also significantly correlated with each indicator in health service quality.

Objective – This study examines the effect of mediating work pressure on the relationship between the quality of work life and the desire to leave of millennial employees. Methodology/Technique – The highest portion of the workforce in Indonesia in 2016 is the millennial generation, which comprises around 62.5 million people. Millennials possess different attitudes, characteristics and skills than the Baby Boomer generation. Millennial employees are perceived to look for the value of work to improve the quality of work life rather than financial benefits. Organizations must understand the character of millennial employees to gain the best talents. Findings – The findings of the study show that quality of work life has a negative and significant effect on work stress. Meanwhile, work stress has a positive and significant effect on intention to leave. Finally, the quality of work life has a negative and significant effect on intention to leave. Research Limitations / Implications – This study concludes that work stress mediates the relationship between the quality of work life and intention to leave. This study concludes that quality of work life is very important for low work stress and reducing the intention to leave among millennial employees. Novelty – These findings expand upon existing research related to the quality of work life, work stress and turnover intention and provides recommendations for organizations to retain millennial employees. Type of Paper: Empirical. Keywords: Millennial; Quality of Work Life; Work Stress; Intention to Leave. Reference to this paper should be made as follows: Komari, N.; Sulistiowati. 2019. Factors Affecting the Intention of Millennial Workers in Indonesia to Leave, J. Bus. Econ. Review 4 (2): 83 – 89 https://doi.org/10.35609/jber.2019.4.2(2) JEL Classification: J60, J61, J69.
Objective - The number of publications written by Indonesian lecturers and researchers has increased both in terms of quantity and quality. However, it is still lower than some neighboring countries such as Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand. Hence, academics in Indonesia, especially in West Kalimantan, still need to improve their research and publication performance. This research aims to analyze the effect of the ACHIEVE model which stands for Ability, Clarity, Help, Incentive, Evaluation, Validity, and Environment, on research and publication performance. Methodology/Technique – The research questions that must be answered in this research was whether Ability, Clarity, Help, Incentive, Evaluation, Validity, and Environment significantly influenced the performance of lecturers' research and publications. The data were collected by distributing self-report questionnaires to 100 lecturers. Finding - The data were also supported by a secondary source taken from the literature study. Measurement variables were developed from the theory and results of previous studies. The data, then, were analyzed by using multiple linear regression with SPSS software. The novelty in this article is the use of the Achieve model to study research and publication performance in higher education institution. Novelty - This research suggested that Ability, Clarity, Help, Incentive, Evaluation, Validity and Environment had a significant effect on research performance. The research also found that the Ability had the highest effect on the research performance. Type of Paper: Empirical. Keywords: Performance, ACHIEVE, Ability, Clarity, Incentive, Performance.
