“…Research examining the impact of Islam on CSR in Islamic banks demonstrates that social and ethical activities enhance the banks' reputations and lead to expectations of higher financial performance (Mallin et al, 2014), especially if CSR disclosure is evident (Platonova et al, 2018). The influence of Islam on CSR can be positive for all stakeholders (Belal et al, 2019; Zahid & Hassan, 2012), including the community (Mallin et al, 2014; Zafar & Sulaiman, 2019), and religion can contribute to organisational resilience (Gürlek, 2022).…”

The role of religion in ethical decision‐making, both for individual managers and at an organisational level, remains elusive due to contrasting findings in extant literature. This is exacerbated by a dearth of studies focusing on specific religious mechanisms that can foster ethical decision‐making, particularly with respect to organisational corporate socially responsible (CSR) behaviour and in backgrounds different from Christianity. This exploratory study investigates the mechanisms in Islam that can influence individual/micro‐ and organisational/meso‐level ethical decision‐making, and hence CSR outcomes. It draws on in‐depth, qualitative data from 63 domestic organisations in Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates and Oman. The findings reveal a complex macro‐normative religious environment, founded on specific factors that shape ethics and decision‐making. Internalised by organisational leaders, these factors translate into organisational CSR behaviour as the organisation becomes a place for fulfilling individual religious responsibilities and even creates CSR products shaped around religious principles. The study contributes to the literature on ethical decision‐making, organisational behaviour and Islamic CSR and offers recommendations for policymakers and practitioners on integrating religion within the organisation.

“…The present research highlights another crucial school of thought, that is “Islamic Work Ethics (IWE).” In the published articles, Islam et al (2021) and Gürlek (2022) stated that IWE are basically the values, principles and practices derived from Islamic teachings that govern the behavior of Muslim employers and employees in the workplace. IWE emphasize the prominence of responsibility, honesty, hard work, respect, compassion, justice and integrity in the workplace.…”

Purpose The study aims to inspect the impact of employees’ perception of corporate social responsibility (CSR) and their spiritual values on their affective commitment and job satisfaction, which in turn may promote organizational citizenship behavior. Furthermore, this study examines the moderating effect of Islamic work ethics to identify whether they strengthen or weaken the proposed associations. Design/methodology/approach A survey instrument was devised to collect data from employees. The statistical analysis of the data was conducted using the Smart PLS software. Additionally, the research uses the “Partial Least Square-Structural Equation Modelling (PLS-SEM)” technique. Findings The findings of the study suggest that employees’ perception of CSR exhibits a positive association with affective commitment and job satisfaction. Likewise, employees’ spiritual values demonstrate a positive and significant correlation with affective commitment and job satisfaction. Finally, the outcomes reveal that affective commitment and job satisfaction play a major role in fostering organizational citizenship behavior. Moreover, Islamic work ethics positively and significantly moderate the relationship between employee CSR perception and affective commitment and between employee CSR perception and job satisfaction. Originality/value This research study endeavors to fill the gaps in the current literature by investigating two crucial aspects of employees: their perception of CSR and spiritual values. Additionally, the study includes Islamic work ethics as a moderator to provide a more comprehensive understanding of how these factors contribute to fostering organizational citizenship behavior. This work highlights the significance of spiritual values and social responsibilities in employees’ lives and how Islamic work ethics shape their behavior accordingly.

“…Although a lot of research on workplace behaviours has absorbed on factors that cause effective employee functioning, ineffective and destructive actions are ubiquitous in modern work organizations (Liao et al, 2021). CWBs are deviant voluntary behaviours common in restaurants that cause harm to the restaurant or the colleagues (Gürlek, 2022). According to Cohen (2018), CWBs differ from everyday harm actions since they are not accidental and are done purposefully to cause damage.…”

Today, restaurants are becoming increasingly concerned about the issue of Counterproductive Work Behaviours (CWBs). As a result, every restaurant strives to lessen the effects of these negative actions (Wallace & Coughlan, 2022). Employees' CWB propagation rates vary according to demographic characteristics (Uche et al., 2017). Therefore, this study examines the variances between fast-food restaurant employees' demographics, including gender, age, and marital status, regarding CWBs. This study's target population was employees working at fast-food restaurants in Cairo that serve fried chicken, burgers, and pizza. Because the questionnaire questions condemn the self, this study used an online questionnaire as the data collection instrument. This is because the participants' identity is hidden, ensuring their responses' credibility. The questionnaire was sent between July and August 2022 to about twenty fast-food restaurants in Cairo. About 12-15 employees from each restaurant responded. All told, 255 employees from all the restaurants responded to the survey. The questionnaire included eighteen items of CWBs (i.e., counterproductive work behaviours against individuals and counterproductive work behaviours against the organization). The results indicated that in fast-food restaurants, older employees are less likely to engage in both dimensions of CWBs than younger employees. Female employees are also less likely to engage in both dimensions of CWBs than male employees. Moreover, marital status showed no difference in CWB dimensions between fast-food restaurant employees. This research will give fast-food restaurant managers an overview of the CWB phenomenon and the employees' demographic variances regarding these behaviours.
