It employs quantitative approach and path analysis is employed to analyze the effect of workload on the performance of bank employees. The research samples include 74 bank employees around the City of Blitar, East Java, Indonesia. The result shows that a workload had a significant positive effect on the performance of bank employees. It also has greater influence on employee performance through motivation variables.

This paper examines the relationship between public policy and education management in Indonesia by looking at various indicators influencing the public policy and the education management. For education management, factors like education achievement at elementary & higher school, college enrolment, job market in both local and international levels and social development are observed. Public policy is studied through work force development, higher education, brain drain, public safety, constitutional convention, job approval, legislature and operation policies. To examine this association, a survey questionnaire is developed and presented on various respondents regarding public policy and education management. A sample of 327 respondents is empirically examined and it is observed that the effect of work force development on elementary school achievement was significant while the effect of brain drains, job approval and legislature were crucial for the presented indicators of education management. Further studies can be conducted while considering other aspects of both public policy and education.

Indonesia has recorded tremendous growth in this decade given a new dimension to her economy. Presently Indonesian economy is the fourth largest in East Asia, after China, South Korea and Japan – and one of the largest in terms of purchasing power parity (PPP), worldwide. This performance can be further improved by employing better supply chain practices. This study observes how green supply chain (GSC) practices can improve foreign direct investment (FDI) and export on Indonesian economic growth. Data is collected from Indonesian economists through a survey questionnaire and is analyzed using PLS-SEM. The results of the study indicate that GSC had positive impact on the economic growth of Indonesia. GSC has also maintained a positive impact on exports and FDI and it is considered crucial for the economic growth. The study shall have broad implications in strategic formulations to boost economic growth.

The primary objective of this study is to find the role of different policies on supply chain performance (SCP). To achieve this objective, quality assurance policies (QAP) and continuous process improvement (CPI) are selected as independent variables. Additionally, the moderating effects of environmental regulations and policy (ERP) are examined between various policies and SCP. ERP is taken as moderating variable because the role of ERP in logistics is crucial. Logistics transport has serious effect on environment due to the emission of CO2. Primary data are collected from supply chain companies of Indonesia. Three hundred questionnaires are used in this study and they are analyzed through statistical tests. Conclusion of the study shows that QAP and CPI had major role in SCP. Better implementation of QAP and CPI increase the SCP among Indonesian supply chain companies. Moreover, ERP is a moderating variable between the relationship of QAP and CPI and SCP. Therefore, Indonesian supply chain companies should enhance the policies related to quality assurance, process improvement and environmental policies to enhance SCP.

Ethics plays an essential role for the success of all business units. These days, it is not sufficient to boost the performance of supply chain companies just by focusing on financial figures but we need to consider the ethical dimensions, particularly at an organizational level. It is evident from the prior investigations that the performance of the supply chain industry in most of the Arab countries has not gained reasonable growth. Most of the Arab countries are facing issues for development good supply chain management in various departments. Bahrain maintains a low performance in the supply chain compared with other Arab countries such as Oman, Qatar, Kuwait, United Arab Emirates (UAE) and Saudi Arabia. The logistics index of Bahrain has been decreasing in recent years. Therefore, to address this problem, the objective of this study is to examine the role of workplace ethics in supply chain management among supply chain companies of Bahrain. The study considers three dimensions of ethics, namely; organization culture ethics, leadership ethics, and training ethics. Employees on the managerial positions are selected as the respondents. These respondents are selected from the supply chain companies of Bahrain. Questionnaires are distributed among these employees to collect the data. By using the structural equation modeling, data are analyzed through PLS. The results conclude that workplace ethics has significant contribution in supply chain management. Better implementation of workplace ethics always contributes positively on supply chain management.
