Government institutions are often constrained when making decisions regarding selecting the best employees due to the unavailability of an adequate decision support system. In fact, with this system, determining the best employees can be done easily and quickly. One method that can be used is the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) which supports multi-criteria selection. This web-based decision support system designed has six criteria. From the calculation results of the priority weight value for each standard, the Court Punishment criteria have the highest priority value compared to other measures. Thus the requirements for this Court Punishment will be the primary consideration in calculating the value of outstanding employees. These criteria are then used for the simulation of 10 ministry employees. The simulation results show that the designed AHP technique is proven to prepare data for high achieving employee candidates accurately.
... Likewise, increased creativity can effectively increase competitive advantage (Barczak et al., 2010). Studies demonstrated that green creativity influences brand performance (Hesari et al., 2021;Wu, 2017;Chen et al., 2020;Boso et al., 2017;Aeknarajindawat & Jermsittiparsert, 2019;. Brand performance can increase if employees in the company propose new ways to achieve environmental purpose, suggests new green ideas to improve environmental performance, promote new green ideas to others, develop good plans for implementing green ideas, and produce creative solutions to environmental problems. ...
This study aims to examine and analyze the influence of green creativity and environmental commitment on business performance by considering the mediating influence of circular economy implementation in batik craft small and medium industries in Sleman Regency. This study is carried out using a quantitative method, with several samples of 120 respondents, the owner or manager of the natural dye batik crafts enterprise in Sleman Regency. The sampling technique is using a non-probability sampling technique. The data is collected by distributing questionnaires electronically. The research variables used in this study are green creativity and environmental commitment as the exogenous variable, business performance as the endogenous variable, and circular economy implementation as mediating variable. The data analysis is carried out using Partial Least Square (PLS) with the software of SmartPLS 3.0. The results of this study show that: (1) Green creativity has a significant favorable influence on the business performance of batik craft SMEs in Sleman Regency; (2) Environmental commitment has a significant positive influence on circular economy implementation; (3) Circular economy implementation has a significant positive influence on business performance, and (4) Circular economy implementation is not proven as mediating variable in the relationship of environmental commitment and business performance in batik craft SMEs in Sleman Regency. This study provides suggestions for batik owners to increase the creation of product samples for customers by utilizing virtual services to reduce the exploitation of natural resources. Further research is required at different times since this study is carried out during the Covid-19 pandemic.
... The relationship between corporate social responsibility and strategic management can be viewed through the lens of strategic management practise, in which organisations should strategically examine and assess the risk of industrial safety based on organisational patterns, environmental factors, and particular working environments [25]. Ref. [25] noted that enterprises should prioritise upgrading the industrial safety of high-risk and highhazard projects in order to safeguard people from occupational illnesses and injuries. ...

Ref. [25] noted that enterprises should prioritise upgrading the industrial safety of high-risk and highhazard projects in order to safeguard people from occupational illnesses and injuries. This is due to the fact that corporations will experience financial and non-financial losses if people are exposed to industrial dangers on the job, regardless of how strongly they promote social welfare and corporate social responsibility. ...
An organisation should be concerned with more than just profit; it should also be concerned with the social interests and welfare of the surrounding community. In order to ensure that the welfare of society is always safeguarded, the government places a greater emphasis on corporate social responsibility within the business sector. Good corporate social responsibility is only possible in conjunction with strategic management. This study investigated the consistency of previous researchers’ literature reviews on corporate social responsibility and strategic management. A total of 132 Scopus articles were selected for this study, and the article information was analysed utilising the systematic literature review and bibliometric analysis methods.
... This study used only the AHP. In the future, this method can be combined with other research methods, such as SAW, TOPSIS, and fuzzy, to calculate weights [63,64]. In addition, studies can compare whether rankings calculated by these research methods are the same as those calculated using only the AHP. ...
The COVID-19 pandemic has severely affected the world’s manufacturing industry, particularly in terms of the continued increase in logistics costs that has led to an increase in business operating costs. This study proposes a two-stage model for evaluating the most appropriate outsourcing logistics companies for a manufacturing factory. In the first stage, a modified Delphi method was used to recruit experienced experts to determine criteria for evaluating outsourcing logistics vendors and establish a hierarchical structure. In the second stage, the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) was used to evaluate suitable logistics companies based on the hierarchical structure. Finally, a case study was conducted to demonstrate the suitability of the two-stage model for evaluating outsourcing logistics companies for reducing logistics costs while maintaining service quality. The proposed model can be used as a basis for evaluating outsourcing logistics companies.
... The indicator on 'waste by type and disposal method' (EN6) is also one of the environmental issues that can be included to increase sustainability reports' informativeness (Mysaka, Derun, & Skliaruk, 2021) and also one of the indicators needed to compose a high-quality sustainability report (Janik, Ryszko, & Szafraniec, 2020). Occupational safety (SO3) is classified as an important aspect of sustainability reporting (Hronová and Špaček, 2021) and a company's most basic responsibility to their employees, in which if employees suffer occupational injuries/diseases at work, the company will also suffer financial and non-financial costs, such as negative social perception from communities (Chen et al., 2020). Whilst, assessment of health and safety impacts of products and services (SO5) is also considered important to be disclosed by organizations because it is relevant to show the stakeholders that their products and/or services have met applicable regulations (Miqdad et al., 2020). ...
The sustainability reporting trend has been increasing in Indonesia for the past few years, with the government’s plan to make sustainability reporting mandatory for all companies, including Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs) that have significant impacts on national economics. So far, there are no specific guidelines for SME’s sustainability report. There are many indicators in the global sustainability reporting guidelines that are not suitable for SMEs since they are limited in the resources and knowledge they can disseminate. Therefore, this study aims to develop a sustainable reporting guideline for SMEs. This study analyzes the sustainable development reporting practices of Indonesia and other countries through literature review, interviews and surveys, in order to build a sustainable development reporting guide for SMEs. The reporting guidelines recommended in this study contain 25 indicators: 12 general information indicators, 1 economic indicator, 6 environmental indicators, and 6 social indicators. Based on a survey of 25 small and medium-sized enterprises, this guideline is suitable for preparing SMEs’ sustainability reports.
... Numerous studies have emphasized the importance of green commitment as a key factor in building and maintaining long-term relationships between business partners. Studies that have examined the relationship between corporate social responsibility and commitment have shown that there is a positive and significant relationship between corporate social responsibility and commitment [20][21][22][23][24]. In addition, research has shown that there is a positive and significant relationship between resource commitment and performance [25][26][27]. ...
... The results showed that corporate social responsibility has a positive and significant effect on resource commitment, green creativity and corporate reputation. This finding is consistent with Lee and Yoon [22], Chen et al. [23], Chaudhary and Akhouri [37], Ahmad et al. [35], Ko and Choi [39], Park [53], González-Rodríguez et al. [54] and Javed et al. [47].

Following the strategic decisions of business managers in the community, issues have been raised that lead to changes in the community. One of these issues, which is becoming increasingly important, is consideration of corporate social responsibility. Therefore, the focus of this study was the effect of corporate social responsibility on brand performance with the mediating role of corporate reputation, resource commitment and green creativity. The research method was survey. The statistical population was employees of private banks, 507 of whom participated in the study. Structural equation modelling with SMARTPLS software was used to analyse the data. The results showed the effect of corporate social responsibility is positive and significant on resource commitment, green creativity, corporate reputation and brand performance. The effect of resource commitment, green creativity and corporate reputation is positive and significant on brand performance. Brand performance will be improved if the company supports employee higher education, encourages employees to develop their skills and abilities, implements flexible policies to provide work-life balance for employees, prioritizes employee needs and demands, has plans to reduce the negative effects of the company on the environment, and participates in activities aimed at protecting and improving the quality of the environment.
... AHP is a systematic method that presents various problems in the form of a hierarchy [20]. The output of the AHP analysis can provide a reference for the methodology and evaluation of the research model [21]. AHP was used because it is not only based on specific research data and analysis, but also involve people who are experts in the related topic [22]. ...
Property investment is always enticing, especially the high-rise residential property. The promise of the raising future value of it keeps investors attracted. Urbanisation also contributes to the massive development in this business, and it is hardly ignored. To run the business and to be able to compete with others, developers have to keep the cost attracted for the residents/buyers. The property needs to be well designed to satisfy the economical capital expenditure as well as low operation and maintenance cost. The high density of this development in an urban area makes developers tend to have low awareness of practising sustainability. Inconsistent evaluation, as well as unwell-defined assessment for sustainability, worsen the situation. This research aims to investigate and develop performance evaluation criteria of sustainability for high-rise residential building. Both qualitative and quantitative approaches were implemented through surveys. Three main factors, which are the promotion of a healthy environment, comfortability of residents and energy-saving, found to be the main categories of criteria to be considered. Based on validation through a case study, it is found that providing easy access to public transport is the most critical criteria for promoting a healthy environment. Besides, the usage of low Volatile Organic Compound (VOC) paint can give comfort to residents because it provides healthy indoor air quality. Lastly, the usage of LED bulbs and natural light supports energy saving. The criteria are then used to develop the decision-making model in selecting the best alternative for the building refurbishment, by using Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP). Application of the decision model in a case study reveals that repainting the building using low VOC paint become the best fit option for enhancing the environment. Developers may implement this in their policy for the redevelopment of their building. The result is limited to the aggregation value; thus, future research is directing into coalition and negotiation among stakeholders by applying payoff optimum and agreement options and also automation in selecting the best technical solution.
... Regarding the function of corporate social responsibility (CSR) activities in businesses, the literature dates back to the 1950s [6]. At that time, the impact of CSR activities on macroeconomic indicators (financial performance, sustainability) of companies came to the fore, while the effect of CSR activities on individual variables as microeconomic indicators has become the subject of studies in recent years [7,8]. Since the 1960s, it has been strongly argued by CSR researchers that companies can yield profits through these activities [9]. ...
The impact of corporate social responsibility (CSR) activities on companies' macroeconomic indicators (financial performance, sustainability) has been the subject of many studies. However, more recently, the effect of CSR activities on individual variables (microeconomic indicators) has begun to attract attention. Although CSR itself is founded on the moral roots of the society in which it operates, it seems that the effect of individuals' moral attentiveness has been neglected. The CSR effect, which is the focus of this study, is examined using three dimensions to understand how CSR can directly and indirectly affect the organizational commitment of employees. A theoretical model is developed in this paper, the focus of which is on the ethical framework of CSR and the proposition that it may have an effect on employees. The sample comprises individuals working in two of the country's most important private production facilities in the western capital of Turkey. An online questionnaire form was prepared and shared. The online form was active between 2 March 2020 and 11 May 2020. Out of 472 forms, 465 were usable and, therefore, used in the analyses. We found proof for most of our assertions. Implications and future research suggestions are discussed.
Since its conception, corporate social responsibility (CSR) has seen continuous growth and become a highly discussed issue. In this paper, we propose an evaluation of how the COVID-19 pandemic could impact CSR applications. The pandemic has provided an opportunity for commerce to move on to being more authentic, to offer genuine CSR applications and to contribute toward dealing with pressing environmental and social issues. Hence, this purpose of the research is to obtain a better understanding of whether the integration of environment, social, corporate governance and economic (ESGE) aspects into CSR strategies can support sustainable development toward more sustainable growth during the COVID-19 pandemic. To meet this challenge, we offer a mixture multiple-criteria decision making (MCDM) model. Very few empirical studies have discussed CSR in the high-tech industry and proposed strategies and planning for ESGE efficiency. Using interviews with experts and a literature review, we identify the elements related to actual practices of the high-tech industry’s appraisal and the integrated MCDM techniques to suggest efficient enhancement models. The best worst method (BWM) and modified VIKOR are implemented to estimate the strategic weights and the gaps of the aspiration value. The results are valuable for classifying the priorities of CSR and are therefore helpful for those who are associated with high-tech industry management, practices and implementation.
