Walau bagaimanapun, masih kurang kajian yang dilakukan untuk melihat pengaruh pengantara dan penyederhana hubungan di antara kedua-dua konstruk tersebut. Sehubungan itu, kajian ini bertujuan untuk menguji peranan sikap majikan sebagai pengantara dan jenis kesatuan sebagai penyederhana. Seramai 676 responden iaitu pegawai-pegawai kesatuan sekerja di negeri Selangor dan Wilayah Persekutuan (Putrajaya dan Kuala Lumpur) terlibat sebagai subjek dalam kajian yang dipilih menggunakan teknik pensampelan rawak berstrata. Data dianalisis dengan menggunakan analisis pengesahan faktor (CFA) dan model persamaan struktur (SEM) dengan menggunakan program AMOS 21. Analisis laluan yang dilakukan mendapati organisasi kesatuan dan sikap majikan mempengaruhi keberkesanan kesatuan secara signifikan. Organisasi kesatuan mempengaruhi sikap majikan secara signifikan.

However, there has been a paucity of studies on the role of the mediator and moderator among the constructs. In relation to this, this study aims to test the employer attitude as the mediator and the role of the type of union as the moderator among the constructs. A total of 676 respondents who are trade union officials in Selangor and the Federal Territory (Putrajaya and Kuala Lumpur) were selected as the subjects in the study, where the selection was made via the stratified random sampling technique. Data were analysed using the confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) and the structural equation model (SEM) using AMOS 21 program. The path analysis conducted showed that the union effectiveness was significantly influenced by union organisation and employer attitude; employer attitude was significantly influenced by union organisation. However, the results also found that employer attitude and type of union were not the mediator and moderator respectively.

This study examines the relationship between attitudes and six reference groups namely auditors, follow-up audit, accountability index, Auditors General's Dashboard, the Audit Committee and the media, with the intention of auditees to implement the audit recommendations. Data are gathered through a survey of 226 Malaysian public sector auditees who have the responsibility to implement audit recommendations. This study shows that the auditees’ attitude, the media, the Audit Committee and the accountability index have influenced the intention of auditees to implement the audit recommendations. However, when the analysis is based on the actual implementation of audit recommendations, by ignoring the element of intention, the study finds slightly different findings. It is found that accountability index, the Audit Committee, Auditors General's Dashboard, auditors and follow-up audit have an influence on the implementation of the audit recommendations. This study supports the Theory of Reasoned Action and introduces accountability index as a factor that influences auditees’ intention to implement audit recommendations. Also, this study provides implication to the public sector’s authorities of Malaysia in enhancing the role of media, the Audit Committee and accountability index in assisting the public sector to improve service rendered.

This paper offers empirical evidence on the motivations for earnings management in Malaysia public listed family firms. A sample of 100 family firms were randomly selected from Bursa Malaysia from the years 2010 to 2014, which resulted in 500 observations in total. The results indicate that the equity ownership held by a controlling family is associated with the earnings management in the firm, since the controlling family has greater power and rights in decision-making. However, the involvement of the controlling family as board of directors is not associated with earnings management in the family firm, since the non-executive member of the board will become the chairman to oversee and monitor the business operations of the family firm. The indirect ownership of the controlling family in family firms does not provide greater opportunity for them to manage earnings through direct equity shares held by other family members because they have limited power through indirect ownership.

This article first highlights the nature of economic activities which is a crucial element in determining that an SOE actually participates in the market. Despite the contentions that SOEs have a unique character, and should be excluded from normal regulation of competition, this article argues that competition law is important in addressing the problems brought about by Government or State’s involvements in businesses. This article finds that while the Competition Act 2010 does not apply a blanket exemption to SOEs, there are many hurdles in applying the law to them. Based on the literature analysis in the earlier part of this article, this article finds that some of these hurdles are justified especially if they are connected to the notion of natural monopoly. Where there are not connected, extending the check and balance mechanisms against the market activities of the SOEs will be crucial. This article shows that the avenues to realise it still exist but are limited.

Makalah ini memulakan langkah dengan menerangkan sifat aktiviti ekonomi yang merupakan satu elemen penting dalam menentukan sesebuah syarikat milik negara benar-benar berpartisipasi dalam sesuatu pasaran. Di sebalik hujahan bahawa syarikat milik negara adalah unik dan sepatutnya dikecualikan daripada regulasi persaingan yang normal, makalah ini menekankan bahawa undang-undang persaingan penting untuk menghadapi masalah yang disebabkan oleh penglibatan Kerajaan atau Negara dalam perniagaan. Makalah ini mendapati walaupun Akta Persaingan 2010 tidak memakai pengecualian menyeluruh kepada syarikat milik negara, terdapat banyak halangan dalam pemakaian undang-undang kepada kelompok tersebut. Berdasarkan analisa literature pada bahagian awal makalah ini, didapati sebahagian daripada halangan ini mempunyai justifikasi kerana berkait dengan konsep monopoli semulajadi. Namun jika ia tidak berkait, tindakan memanjangkan mekanisme semak dan seimbang terhadap aktiviti pasaran syarikat bukan kerajaan adalah mustahak.

Mahkamah begitu berhati-hati dalam membenarkan tuntutan untuk kerugian ekonomi tulen. Ini mungkin disebabkan oleh beberapa faktor, seperti, kesukaran untuk menentukan jumlah ganti rugi dan terdapat juga kebimbangan bahawa orang ramai akan mengambil peluang mengemukakan tuntutan yang palsu. Mengadaptasi metodologi analisis kandungan ke atas kes-kes yang diputuskan di England dan Malaysia, objektif artikel ini adalah untuk menganalisis keputusan kes–kes kerugian ekonomi tulen di England dan Malaysia serta seterusnya membuat perbandingan pendekatan mahkamah di kedua-dua buah negara tersebut dalam kesediaan mereka untuk membenarkan tuntutan bagi kerugian ekonomi tulen. Analisis ke atas beberapa kes-kes kerugian ekonomi tulen yang relevan yang diputuskan menunjukkan bahawa mahkamah di England telah cuba untuk membuat pembaharuan dalam pendekatan mereka dengan membenarkan tuntutan bagi kerugian ekonomi tulen. Namun begitu, kes-kes yang diputuskan kemudiannya menunjukkan bahawa mahkamah di England masih mengekalkan pendekatan tradisional mereka dengan tidak membenarkan tuntutan bagi kerugian ekonomi tulen. Walau bagaimanapun, perkembangan yang berlaku di Malaysia sekitar tahun 1990an dan di awal tahun 2000 menunjukkan satu perkembangan yang penting yang mana tuntutan bagi kerugian ekonomi tulen berhubung dengan kecacatan bangunan telah dibenarkan. Sama ada mahkamah negara ini bersedia untuk membenarkan tuntutan ekonomi tulen dalam kes-kes kecuaian lain belum dapat ditentukan lagi. Namun begitu, perkembangan ini menunjukkan kesediaan mahkamah di Malaysia untuk mewujudkan prinsip common law yang tersendiri.

The courts are too cautious in allowing claims for pure economic loss. This may be due to various factors, such as, the difficulty in determining the amount of damages and there is also an apprehension that many people will take advantage by making fictitious claims. Adopting the content analysis methodology on the decided cases in England and Malaysia, the objective of this article is to analyse the decided cases in England and Malaysia pertaining to pure economic loss and thereafter compare the approach taken by the courts in both countries in the aspect of their willingness to allow claims for pure economic loss. Analysis of several relevant decided cases showed that the English courts had made some effort to reform their approach by allowing pure economic loss. However, subsequent decided cases showed that the courts in England still maintain their traditional approach by not allowing claims for pure economic loss. On the other hand, the development of cases in Malaysia in the1990s and early 2000 showed a significant development whereby the claims for pure economic loss in relati","PeriodicalId":311489,"journal":{"name":"Jurnal Pengurusan UKM Journal of Management","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124226583","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}

Focusing on the individual lecturer’s performance measurement system which relates closely to the RUs strategy, the perception on organizational justice among the lecturers is expected to influence their quality of work. Detailing the organizational justice into procedural justice and distributive justice, the significance of these variables are tested via online survey questionnaires administered among lecturers in five public RUs. Based on feedback, from 365 respondents, analysed using statistical SPSS software and Structure Equation Modelling with AMOS, the findings support the importance of perception on justice in influencing the effectiveness of the lecturers’ performance measurement system and achievement of their work performance.

Menurut “World Health Survey 2010”, daripada 28 juta orang jumlah penduduk Malaysia, dianggarkan 10% atau seramai 2.8 juta orang adalah orang kurang upaya (OKU). Ini bermakna hampir tiga juta rakyat Malaysia adalah golongan OKU dan jumlah yang besar ini mampu mempengaruhi corak pembangunan ekonomi sesebuah negara. Atas dasar itu, artikel ini membincangkan masalah utama yang dihadapi oleh golongan OKU dalam aspek pekerjaan iaitu amalan pengurusan hak pekerja kurang upaya di sesebuah organisasi. Objektif artikel ini adalah untuk: (1) mengenal pasti hak-hak OKU dalam aspek pekerjaan berdasarkan undang-undang di Malaysia; (2) mengenal pasti amalan pengurusan sesebuah organisasi dalam melindungi hak pekerja kurang upaya; dan (3) mencadangkan langkah-langkah penambahbaikan terhadap undang-undang sedia ada bagi melindungi hak pekerja kurang upaya di Malaysia. Bagi memenuhi objektif ini, pendekatan kajian sosio perundangan yang melibatkan masalah sosial dan isu serta persoalan berhubung dengan masyarakat digunakan. Isu-isu yang dikaji meliputi amalan atau praktis sesebuah organisasi yang menggaji pekerja kurang upaya dalam memastikan hak OKU berdasarkan Akta OKU 2008. Ia meliputi tiga perkara iaitu kadar upah, peluang kenaikan pangkat dan persekitaran tempat kerja. Hasil dapatan mendapati, hanya kadar upah sahaja yang memenuhi kehendak peruntukan dalam Akta OKU 2008 sebaliknya tidak bagi dua perkara lagi. Sehubungan dengan itu, dua cadangan dikemukakan bagi memastikan golongan pekerja kurang upaya mendapat perlindungan sewajarnya di tempat kerja iaitu penambahbaikan dari sudut definisi pekerja kurang upaya dan penambahan aspek hukuman terhadap pelanggaran Akta OKU 2008. Melalui penambahbaikan ini, semua pihak khususnya majikan atau organisasi dapat memahami serta mengenali keperluan dan kehendak pekerja kurang upaya seterusnya membawa kepada penguatkuasaan akta yang lebih berkesan.

According to \"World Health Survey 2010\", 10 percent of Malaysia's population of 28 million or 2.8 million, are people with disabilities (PWDs). It indicates that nearly three million citizens of Malaysia are PWDs and this can surely influence the economic landscape of the country.
