Different investigations into ERP and OP exist in private and public organizations in developed and developing countries. Notably, as only a few studies have addressed the implication of ERP on OP in Arab countries, such as in the Libyan context, it needs more investigation. The main objective of this study is to explore to what extent Libyan public organizations are looking to improve their performance through adopting ERP systems. The quantitative method was adopted, and out of 242 public organizations, 149 organizations were selected as the study sample through the random sampling technique. 119 completed questionnaires were run for further analysis. The SPSS software and PLS-SEM were employed to test the hypotheses. The results revealed that the ERP system and OP relationship was enormously significant. The empirical results add a new academic contribution to the body of knowledge. Hence, the obtained outcome is hoped to provide benefits to the public sector organizations in Libya.

In March 2020, an increase in the statistics of this pandemic occurred worldwide. The direct exposures, such as human resource loss, and the indirect exposures, such as the systemic loss, have affected the individuals and the companies during the COVID-19 pandemic. The identified loss exposures could be measured using several methods to implement suitable actions for the management of the identified risks.

Additionally, the study has also investigated the mediating role of work engagement. We have used a survey-based method where the close ended questionnaires were structured. For the collection of quantitative data, we have distributed questionnaires among the respondents.

one of several problems confronted by industrial companies in Libya,
and occurs almost continuously. Such a problem has a negative impact
on the further development and expansion of the industrial activity in

overcome it, such as privatization. This paper explores and analyzes
some of the underlying causes for the low productivity in industrial
companies.

influence productivity in Libya, some of these factors have not been
studied before, such as lack of the good management, inappropriate
production systems, and employee technical skills and dissatisfaction,
should be investigated in future studies in empirical studies to support
the issues regarding the productivity of industry organizations in Libya

However, most of the prior studies on IFR were declined towards exploratory and descriptive methods. Hence, the studies failed to explained technology factors empirically in terms of technology resources, human resources and users' readiness towards IFR. Therefore, this study empirically examines the influence of technological factors on the IFR with the moderating effect of corporate governance. Data were collected from the users of internet financial reporting using clustered and simple random sampling. Meanwhile, 212 questionnaires were retrieved that represent 53% response rate. The data were analysed using Structural Equation Modelling (PLS-SEM). The findings showed that technology factors (users' readiness, technology and human resources) have statistically significant relationship with internet financial reporting of Libyan Banking Sector. This indicates that users' readiness, human resources and technology resources are the predictor for internet financial reporting. Base on the moderating effect, it was revealed that corporate governance only moderates the relationship between users' readiness and internet financial reporting. The results of our survey indicate continued progress in the area of corporate reporting over the Internet. Almost all the companies considered in this study have a section within their Website, which is used to present financial information. The study recommend that stakeholders must consider the factors analyzed in this study for more effective use of internet financial reporting most especially in Libyan Banking Sector.

Additionally, the study has also investigated the mediating role of work engagement. We have used a survey-based method where the close ended questionnaires were structured. For the collection of quantitative data, we have distributed questionnaires among the respondents. To test the 0hypothesis of this study we have used Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modelling (PLS-SEM). We have distributed total 538 questionnaires, whereas 412 questionnaires were received back. Total 15 questionnaires were dropped because of missing information. The total useable questionnaires were 397, and the response rate for the present study was 76.6%.

The conceptual framework, and the factors and relationships proposed in the review process confirm the impact of the proposed framework. The discussion of certain factors with reference to particular countries have some common characteristics that unite their comparison in terms of the government sector. There are many similarities between the cultural, structural and technological factors considered. It is important to integrated these factors to determine their importance in a comprehensive study. The present paper proposes a methodological framework for the study of the most important factors, influencing the possible relationship between ERP system and performance in a clear signal that it has not been studied before in the Libyan context, directly giving the clear importance of such a study.
