{"title":"The Correlation Between the Size, Independence and Experience of Internal Audit and its Impact on Reducing Financial Corruption: Evidence from the Public Sector in Iraq","authors":"A. Wahhab, Farqad Mohammed Bakr Al Saadi","doi":"10.47577/tssj.v58i1.11167","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.47577/tssj.v58i1.11167","url":null,"abstract":"Financial corruption crimes in the public sector are prevalent in numerous developing nations, frequently stemming from political, economic, or social problems, among other things. In order to combat these unethical behaviours in the public sector, governments are aggressively striving to improve the internal audit function. This requires recruiting an adequate number of auditors who can carry out their duties with the highest level of professionalism, fostering the autonomy of the audit function and auditors, and improving the effectiveness of auditors through training, qualifications, and education. In the end, this will help decrease the financial corruption that hinders the long-term progress of Iraq. The goal of this study is to assess the magnitude, autonomy, and expertise of internal auditing in Iraq's public sector entities, as well as the extent of financial corruption within this sector. To accomplish the goals of the study, we created a survey and administered it to a randomly selected group of internal auditors in 15 Iraqi governorates, excluding the Kurdistan Region. We issued a total of 174 questionnaires, each containing two axes. The initial segment has three facets of internal auditing (magnitude, autonomy, and expertise) and a total of 27 inquiries. The second axis consisted of 14 questions that assessed financial corruption using regression analysis. The study used basic and numerous linear tests to investigate the hypotheses, ultimately determining that the inclusion of more staff was essential for carrying out certain audit responsibilities. The department lacks a proportional allocation of internal auditors compared to the workload, resulting in the audit body's weak independence. This is primarily due to the administration's interference in the transfer and employment of individuals based on its own discretion, as well as corruption prevalent in government units, particularly in investment spending. The results also revealed a direct relationship between size, independence, internal auditing experience, and financial corruption.","PeriodicalId":127066,"journal":{"name":"Technium Social Sciences Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141367407","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This research uses a quantitative approach, analyzes using Structural equation modeling (SEM), and uses the Smart-PLS statistical program. The research sample refers to the Isaac and Michael table using a 10% significance level. The sample of this study consisted of 115 cadets from various occupations in airport electrical engineering at the Air Matra Polytechnic who had participated in the on-the-job training (OJT) program. The results of the analysis show that work ability has a significant positive effect on cadet productivity. This shows that the higher a person's work ability, the higher his productivity. In addition, work-related operational time also has a positive effect on productivity. That is, the longer the working time owned by cadets, the higher the level of productivity. Furthermore, on-the-job training (OJT) proved to be a significant mediator in the relationship between work ability and work operational time and cadet productivity. This suggests that on-the-job training has an important role in improving productivity.","PeriodicalId":127066,"journal":{"name":"Technium Social Sciences Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141366754","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In line with the large demands of society for the implementation of good governance, the government must provide quality public services. In this regard, development planning is needed that is systematic, directed, comprehensive, and responsive to the dynamics of community needs. In the government's efforts to provide public services, it is necessary to develop and implement a real legal accountability system for the implementation public services, so that the implementation of government and development can take place in an efficient, clean and accountable manner. The responsibility of Commitment Making Officials in the procurement of government goods/services consists of administrative responsibility and criminal responsibility. Administrative responsibility occurs if an administrative violation occurs, and will be subject to administrative sanctions. Meanwhile, criminal liability means the possibility that a criminal act has occurred and can be subject to criminal sanctions.  However, this responsibility can also be imposed on other officials involved in the procurement of goods/services, such as Budget Users, Budget User Proxies, Procurement Officials/Election Working Group, as long as their involvement in the criminal act can be proven.","PeriodicalId":127066,"journal":{"name":"Technium Social Sciences Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140723104","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study examined the values of 513 Jamaican citizens using the World Value Survey and discussed these findings within the context of values theory and contemporary foreign policy issues. The secular versus religious divide helps to explain the differences in views on LBGTQ, Abortion and Promiscuity and Abstinence between Jamaica and the hegemon.

Consequently, one of the efforts to address climate injustice for communities in the Global South is through climate litigation processes. The process itself is a challenging one since the litigants need support legally and politically to ensure it has proceeded. Here, non-governmental organisation’s (NGO) engagement is the most feasible support that local communities can access. This article analyzes the dynamics of climate justice attempts through a unique case study: climate litigation between residents of Pulau Pari, a small island located in the Java Sea, Indonesia, and the cement giant Holcim-LaFarge in Switzerland. This climate litigation is advocated by three collaborating NGOs: HEKS (Switzerland), ECCHR (Germany), and WALHI (Indonesia). Using a qualitative method, we analyze the role of NGO advocacy in the litigation process using the advocacy function concept by Joseph Szarka; issue framing, construction and dissemination of knowledge, responsibility attribution, political lobbying, public mobilization and agenda setting. We argue that the advocacy support of the three related NGOs amplified the climate litigation process beyond legal proceedings. The strategy of advocating climate litigation is an innovative way to create wider recognition from the international community and push adaptation to the struggle of the local community.","PeriodicalId":127066,"journal":{"name":"Technium Social Sciences Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140723352","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Academic services involve curriculum establishment, subject course material settlement, tutorial services, remedial teaching, learning assessment, and academic judisium. The objectives of managerial centralization and standardization are at least assuring the achievement of managerial efficiency and effectivity. However, in the practical terms the midle line and operating core bussiness services apperently could not resolve problems in quick and effective manner, when students asked for help due to the problems of delivered administrative and academic services. The research question was \"what is the impact of centralized and standardized of student service management system to the UT overall services performance?\". The method used was a case-study, and the data were taken through series of document review, observation technique and interviews. The data were analyzed descriptively qualitative using MPFAAC technique.
