Popis: | The increasing use of the internet has changed the way we live and work. Moreover, in countries where there is a use of internet on a large scale, changes in the content and context of work have been observed. The use of Internet has become a tool to achieve competitive advantage by organizations. Also, it has been associated with many negative consequences such as reduced employees' productivity. Despite its importance, there is a lack of cyberloafing studies in Malaysia. The paper proposes a modified version of Triandis's theory of interpersonal behaviour by incorporating a new independent variable, ability to hide cyberloafing that directly predicts employees cyberloafing. This paper also recommends examining the relationship between cyberloafing and employees' productivity. Some studies believe that cyberloafing is beneficial for employees' productivity but other studies suggest that it is harmful to employees' productivity. By understanding what causes cyberloafing and its impacts, organizations can be more effective in managing the issue. |
