Resumen

Este documento explorará algunos de los antecedentes clave que impulsan la intención de los servidores públicos no ejecutivos de presentar denuncias en Kuala Lumpur. Malasia se ubicó en el puesto 62 entre 180 países en el Índice de Percepción de la Corrupción (IPC) de Transparency International (TI) 2017. Los denunciantes pueden considerarse como un recurso valioso para las organizaciones y puede ser beneficioso para disuadir las faltas corporativas y los actos cuestionables. Sin embargo, las publicaciones anteriores sobre denuncia de irregularidades se centran principalmente en los factores de respuesta relacionados con la razón por la que se producen las denuncias, las consecuencias y características de los denunciantes, y existe una escasez de investigaciones sobre la percepción de los empleados del sector público sobre los comportamientos de denuncia. El presente estudio intenta llenar el vacío de investigación centrándose en empleados no ejecutivos de bajo nivel como potenciales denunciantes en el sector público. Esta fue una investigación cuantitativa y utilizando un método de encuesta, los datos se recopilaron de una muestra de 100 servidores públicos en Kuala Lumpur. Se usó el software AMOS desarrollado para analizar el Modelo de ecuación de estructura (SEM) y SPSS. Basados en los coeficientes de trayectoria estandarizados del modelo estructural, los hallazgos revelaron que solo la actitud y las normas subjetivas tienen un impacto significativo hacia el comportamiento de denuncias. Sin embargo, los resultados muestran que no existe una relación directa entre el control de comportamiento percibido y el comportamiento de denuncia de irregularidades. Los hallazgos respaldaron los resultados de algunos estudios anteriores y también presentaron varias ideas nuevas, como la importancia de la actitud hacia la denuncia de irregularidades en Kuala Lumpur. Los hallazgos también proporcionarán implicaciones teóricas y prácticas para los responsables de la formulación de políticas, organizaciones e instituciones para facilitar y respaldar las denuncias con la intención de mejorar la responsabilidad y la buena gobernanza. Los empleadores deben tomar medidas para implementar políticas internas que ofrezcan protecciones e incentivos suficientes a los denunciantes potenciales para alentar la denuncia interna.
