Work-Life Balance, Organizational Support, And Job Burnout As Determinants of Turnover Intention In Generation Z

Haris Sukandar Nur — 2025-11-16

This study aims to analyze the influence of work-life balance and organizational support on job burnout and its implications for turnover intention among Generation Z educational staff at Esa Unggul University. This study used a quantitative approach with a survey method of 115 Generation Z respondents. The research instrument was a structured questionnaire that had been tested for validity and reliability. The collected data were analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM-PLS) using SmartPLS 4 software, which allows for simultaneous testing of causal relationships between variables. The results showed that work-life balance had a significant negative effect on job burnout and turnover intention. This means that the higher the level of work-life balance perceived by employees, the lower the risk of burnout and intention to leave. Furthermore, organizational support has been shown to play a significant role in reducing job burnout levels and reducing the likelihood of resignation. Conversely, job burnout has a significant positive effect on turnover intention, indicating that the higher the level of job exhaustion experienced, the greater the likelihood that employees will plan to leave the organization. Theoretically, this study expands the literature on Generation Z dynamics in the workplace, emphasizing the role of work-life balance and organizational support in influencing turnover intention. Furthermore, the results corroborate previous research findings that confirm a strong relationship between burnout and turnover intention. Practically, this study provides strategic recommendations for university management to strengthen employee wellness policies, develop work flexibility, provide career development programs, and build a supportive organizational culture.

Trends and Knowledge Gaps In Fish-Based Fermented Foods: A Bibliometric Analysis From The Last Decade (2015-2024)

Jendri Mamangkey — 2025-11-17

Fish-based fermented foods are integral to traditional diets across Asia, Africa, and Europe, valued for both their nutritional role and cultural significance. Increasingly, they are also studied for potential functional properties such as probiotic activity and bioactive compounds, yet their global research landscape has not been systematically assessed. This study presents a bibliometric analysis of global research on fish-based fermented foods published between 2015 and 2024. Data were retrieved from the Scopus database and analyzed using the Bibliometrix R package and Biblioshiny interface. A total of 263 documents were identified across 145 sources, authored by 1,150 researchers. The field has shown rapid growth, with an annual publication increase of 27.01% and an average of 28.48 citations per article, indicating strong scholarly visibility. Most contributions originated from East and Southeast Asia, particularly China, South Korea, and Thailand, reflecting the cultural and culinary importance of fermented fish in these regions. Author productivity followed Lotka’s law, with a small group of core researchers driving sustained output. Keyword co-occurrence and thematic mapping revealed dominant clusters around fermented fish sauce, lactic acid bacteria, and microbial diversity, alongside emerging themes related to fatty acids and bacterial communities. Despite these advances, the analysis highlighted notable gaps, including limited international collaboration and underrepresentation of research from Africa and parts of South Asia. These findings suggest that while the field is expanding and diversifying, greater cross-regional engagement and methodological innovation are needed to fully explore the nutritional, functional, and socio-economic dimensions of fish-based fermented foods.

The Impact of Carbon Emission Disclosure On Firm Value With Sustainability Performance As A Mediating Variable: Evidence From Palm Oil and Mining Companies In Indonesia

Muthia Harnida — 2025-11-17

This study aims to analyze the impact of carbon emission disclosure on firm value, with sustainability performance as a mediating variable. This study focuses on palm oil and mining companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) with 105 data points for the period 2019–2023. Carbon emission disclosure is a form of corporate transparency in managing environmental impacts and is increasingly a major concern for stakeholders, particularly investors. However, the direct relationship between carbon emission disclosure and firm value remains a gap in various previous studies. This study used a panel data regression with a fixed effects model equipped with robust standard errors (clustered by company). Carbon emission disclosure is measured using the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) 305: Emissions index, Sustainability performance with Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) score as the proxy for sustainability performance, and firm value by the Tobin's Q ratio. The results indicate that carbon emission disclosure has a direct effect on firm value. However, ESG in this study does not mediate the relationship between carbon emission disclosure and firm value. The implications of this research are expected to be a reference for companies in increasing sustainability transparency and for regulators in formulating policies for carbon emission disclosure and its incentive mechanism.

Exploring Business Sustainability Factors In MICE Tourism From an MSME Perspective

Nining Yuniati — 2025-11-17

Event industry as popular known as MICE Tourism business is rapidly growing in Indonesia, various international events have been successfully held in Indonesia, but little is known about how these events are operated and who the parties involved are. Behind the success of the event, many MSME are involved with several constraints that also need government attention, so that they can support the sustainability of event entrepreneurs in the future. The main problem is the lack of achievement standards that can serve as a reference other than simply meeting the terms of reference and spending according to the budget plan outlined in the contract. Based on direct observation and interviews with event business owners, namely a number of involved event organisers and vendors, and with the help of NVIVO software, at least eight important factors were identified: Commitment & Contract, Innovation & Novelty of Event, Mutual Partnership, Payment, Portfolio & Experience, Product Quality, Profit, and Zero Complaint. Each factor and its implications are discussed in detail in this study
