TEXT l
Performance Perceptions of Organizational Citizenship Behaviours at Work: a Bi-Level Study
among Managers and Employees

Organizations comprise individuais whose behaviours range from the minimalists, who contribute
the least possible to maintain membership, to others who go the 'extra mile', discretionarily engaging in
extra-role behaviours advantageous to the organization. These 'extra' work-related behaviours, which are
beyond those prescribed by job descriptions and measured by formal evaluations, are named
Organizational Citizenship behaviours, or OCB (Bateman and Organ, 1983). Because OCBs are 'extra'
and beyond the requirements that are specified in advance for a particular job (Bateman and Organ,
1983), they cannot be enforced (Organ, 1988a), nor can their absence be formally penalized (Van Dyne,
Cummings and Parks,1995).
Cooperation with peers, personal initiatives and performing extra duties without complaint are
examples of OCB (Bateman and Organ, 1983; Organ and Konovsky, 1989; Smith, Organ and Near,
1983). Other examples are punctuality, helping others, volunteering (Organ, 1988a), innpvation and using
time efficiently (Smith, Organ and Near, 1983), not wasting resources, sharing ideas, and representing the
organization favourably (Van Dyne, Graham and Dienesch, 1994). These are among the spontaneous
behaviours described by Katz and Kahn (1978) as instrumental for effective Organizational functioning
(Organ, 1988a).
After Bateman and Organ introduced the original concept of OCB in 1983, the literature turned first
to defining the antecedents of citizenship behaviour, and then to linking the construct to performance. For
example, studies by Karambayya (1990), MacKenzie, Podsakoff, and Ahearne (1996), Podsakoff and
MacKenzie (1994), Podsakoff, Ahearne, and MacKenzie (1997), Turnipseed (2002, 2003a), Turnipseed
and Murkison (2000a), and Walz and Niehoff (1996, 2000) investigated OCB dimensions with regard to
Organizational performance. The main conclusion of these studies was that citizenship behaviours are
positive for organizations, and they simultaneously benefit employees and managers. The impact of OCB,
according to Organ (1988a), is that they promote 'the effective functioning of the organization' by
facilitating adaptability, resource transformations, and innovativeness.
Managers particularly value citizenship behaviours that 'lubricate the social mchinery of the
organization' (Bateman and Organ, 1983, p. 588), causing managerial economies. For example, creating a
work environment conducive to cooperation may reduce the time a manager spends on conflict
management, thus freeing up time for long-range planning and improving chances for Organizational
success.
Given that OCB is positive for organizations, managers should attempt to increase their frequency
and intensity. To optimize the constructive impact of interventions, effective managers must identify
linksbetween various OCB dimensions and performance, and then understand their employees' perceptions
of Organizational citizenship. Similarly, employees should be made aware of the positive
connection
between OCB and performance. Equipped with this insight, managers can accurately assess OCB prior to
intervention, and design effective strategies for maximizing citizenship behaviours that positively impact
performance.
The argument for a link between citizenship-type behaviours and performance hs been more
logical and conceptual than empirical (Borman and Motowidlo, 1993). Results of the few empirical studies
vary, depending on the sample and the specific characteristics of the observations, and have not
produce consistent support for the OCB-performance link. As Podsakoff, MacKenzie and Hui (1993)
www.anpadcurso.com
auri@anpadcurso.com
129
suggest, OCBs may influence managerial evaluations only because they positively affect managers
and the organization. Therefore, managers rate employees who display these behaviours higher than
employees who do not. Moreover, if a manager believes that OCB is linked to performance and he/she
observes an employee repeatedly exhibiting good citizenship, the manager's evaluation of that employee,
influence by the presumption of implicit performance, tends to reflect his/her inference that the employee is a
top performer.
Some scholars suggest that OCB may only be acts of impresson management rather than extra-role
behaviours (cf. Bolino, 1999; Bolino and Turnley, 2003; Hui, Lam and Law, 2000). Pretending to be a good
citizen can mislead managers to the conclusion of superior performance independent of the
authentication of the levei of production. As a result of these and other similar conceptual problems, some
studies document stronger connections among OCB, managerial evaluation and performance than others.
The purpose of this paper is to evaluate perceptions of OCB among managers and employees, and
assess the relationship between OCB and performance. We posit that disaggregating the data and
distinguishing between 'best' and 'worst' performers will reveal a more dependable linkage.

TEXT 2
The new old age
The Japanese senior citizens who founded Jeeba knew they were making history when they coined
their company motto: "Of the elderly, by the elderly and for the elderly". By the time the 25 founders
met one another in the mid-1990s, at a series of business-networking events hosted by the
government of southern Saga prefecture, many companies were making products for the elderly, the
fastest-growing 5 demographic market in Japan. But those goods were not made by the elderly. AH the
Jeeba founders were older than 60 and believed they had a special insight into the needs of older
consumers. In 1997, they launched Jeeba (the name means "old man and old woman") to build senior-
friendly bathtubs, toilets and hammock lifts to help the infirm into wheelchairs. They do not hire young
people, and the oldest of their workers is 75. Annual sales are only $272,000, but senior director
Kazuhiro Noda, 67, expects revenues to start growing soon, as the company is putting more money
and resources into sales development. He also believes copycats are sure to follow. Says Noda: "There
will be a lot more companies like ours".
He's probably right. Firms run by senior citizens are still a rarity, in Japan and worldwide. But
the elderly have numbers on their side. Thanks to the post World War II baby boom, healthier and
longer-living seniors are reaching retirement age in unprecedented numbers ali over the developed
world. Rock-bottom birthrates in those same countries mean there are far fewer young workers to take
their place. The potential consequences for industrialized economies are now clear: shrinking work
forces, soaring health costs and collapsing pension systems. Nihon University demographer Naohiro
Ogawa is not exaggerating muth when he says: "Old people are Japan's only growing asset".
As a result, many of the rich world's notions about old age are dying. While the streamlining effects
of international competition are focusing attention on the need to create and keep good jobs, those
fears will eventually give way to worries about the growing shortage of young workers. One
unavoidable soluton: putting older people back to work, whether they like it or not.

Financial Risk Exposures in the Airline Industry: Evidence from Australia and New Zealand
Introduction
Airlines face substantial strategic, financial, operational and hazard risks. Financial risks create
uncertainty about future cash flows due to changes in general economic conditions and specifc changes
in revenues, operating expenditure and financing costs. Managing exposure to key financial risks is an
integral part of the corporate finance function. This paper studies exposure to three major financial risks
confronting the airline industry in Australia and New Zealand. It analyses the interest-rate, currency and
fuel-price risk exposures for Qantas and Air New Zealand, which are the dominant airlines in Australia
and New Zealand, respectively. Considerable volatility and a variety of trends occurred in interest rates,
currency values and the fuel price throughout the period studied. This suggests that there were potentially
large gains to be derived from managing these risks effectively.
In addition to volatility in key market variables, these airlines also confronted severe turbulence in
their operating environment during the sample period. The global airline industry faced intense external
pressure as a result of the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001. Furthermore, the airline industry in
both Australia and New Zealand underwent a major shakeout with the demise of Ansett and the related
financial difficulties of its parent company, Air New Zealand. Ansett was the principal domestic
competitor of Qantas until it was placed into voluntary administration on September 12, 2001. In the
latter part of the period of this study, the airline industry also faced declining demand due to the Bali
bombings, the war in Iraq and the outbreak of the SARS virus. Throughout the time frame of this study,
airlines also faced actual and potential competition from new entrants to the industry.
Interest-rate, currency and fuel-price exposure are acknowledged to be important risks affecting the
airline industry and are commonly hedged. For example, in its 2003 annual report to shareholders, Qantas
states in note 32 that it 'is subject to interest rate, foreign currency, fuel price and credit risks'. This same
note indicates that Qantas 'manages these risk exposures using various financial instruments' and
provides examples of hedging instruments which they employ. These include interest-rate swaps, forward
rate agreements and options to manage interest rate risk; cross-currency swaps, forward foreign
exchange contracts and currency options to manage currency risk; options and swaps on aviation fuel
and crude oil to manage fuel price risk. As this set of risk management tools provides both linear
and non-linear payoffs, it is apparent that management can identify important symmetric and
asymmetric components of exposure.
Three related literatures are relevant for our paper. Several papers develop theoretical models that
examine the determinants of currency exposure, including Shapiro (1975), Marston (2001), Allayannis
and Ihrig (2001), Bodnar, Dumas and Marston (2002). This literature establishes the prime importance of
the competitive structure within the industry. Another stream of literature analyses stock returns to
provide empirical measures of corporate exposure to risks such as exchange rates, interest rates and
commodity prices. Risks analysed in this manner include foreign exchange (Jorion 1990), interest rate
(Sweeney & Warga 1986), gold price (Tufano 1998) etc. Finally, an extensive literature canvasses
theoretical arguments for and against hedging of financial risks by non-financial corporations. For
example, Stulz (1984), Smith and Stulz (1985), Froot, Scharfstein and Stein (1993) and Nance, Smith and
Smithson (1993) identify tax minimisation, managerial risk aversion, financial distress, resolution of the

underinvestment problem as motives for corporate hedging. Carter, Rogers and Simkins (2002) make the
www.anpadcurso.com
auri@anpadcurso.com
136
case that the airline industry is one in which corporate hedging is likely to add value by minimising the
underinvestment problem.
Our study seeks to contribute in the following ways. Many previous studies have tested for the
existence of a single extra-market risk. Most of these have been for exchange-rate exposure and while
some have tested for interest-rate exposure, this has been largely for financial corporations. In contrast,
we simultaneously examine interest-rate, currency and fuel-price exposures. Most previous papers
haveexamined either broadly aggregated industries or a wide spectrum of individual companies, without
controlling for industry effects. We argue that the analysis of companies within a single industry in a
specifc context provides useful incremental knowledge. Ongoing external threats to the global airline
industry and public debate about competition in the Australian-New Zealand region makes these two
airlines an interesting place to analyse the existence and relevance of financial risk exposures.
Our main findings are as follows. Short-term returns for Qantas and Air New Zealand are negatively
exposed to fuel-price risk, but not significantly exposed to interest-rate or currency risk. Using multi-week
returns, the incidence of significant linear and non-linear exposures to these three risks tends to increase
with the horizon length. A possible explanation for this evidence is that airlines are better able to manage their
short-term exposures. Although the extraordinary events of September 2001 had a substantial impact
upon airline returns, they had virtually no influence on the degree of exposure exhibited by our sample
airlines to either interest-rate or currency risk. In contrast, fuel-price exposure measures show some
sensitivity to these events.
The rest of our paper proceeds as follows. Section 2 provides a theoretical analysis of financial risk
exposures in the airline industry. Section 3 describes the data and methods employed. Results are reported and
analysed in section 4. Finally, section 5 concludes the study.

The truth about sugar
The buzz says a dizzying price spike is all about sugar for biofuels. But the reality is more
complicated.
The surprising thing about the price of oil, which hit a new record of $75 a barrel last week, is how
little visible impact it has had on a booming global economy. But that hasn't stopped market
watchers from looking for and finding peripheral shocks, even where they don't really exist. Consider
the recent rush to sugar, which spiked to a 25-year high of 20 cents a pound, driven largely by buzz
about an old 5 phenomenon: the largest producer, Brazil, devotes half its crop to the production of
ethanol, which is an increasingly competitive source of energy for cars as gas prices spike.
Sugar for fuel is an interesting story, but it's a relatively small one that at the moment is still largely
confined to Brazil. The share of global sugar production that goes to biofuels is roughly 15 percent,
or about what it was 20 years ago, and the vast majority of that production is now in Brazil. In fact,
Brazil used to devote a lot more of its (then much smaller) crop to biofuels, and most of its
booming sugar production now fuels a much bigger story: sugar for food. Demand is rising
relentlessly, at a pace of about 2 percent a year, driven by increasingly sweet tastes in
developing nations, even as sugar consumption slows in the West. Meanwhile, a combination of
underinvestment and bad weather in producing regions (from Gulf Coast hurricanes to drought in
www.anpadcurso.com
auri@anpadcurso.com
139
Thailand and a March cyclone in Australia) has disrupted supply. The result: last year demand
reached 151 million tons, against a supply of 149 million tons, driving prices up, with more rises in
store.
Trade wars, not oil shocks, are the key going fonvard. Next month the European Union, its
hand forced by a World Trade Organization ruling, must dramatically cut export subsidies to its sugar
growers. In anticipation of falling profits, several big sugar companies, like Germany's Sdzucker,
Poland's ! 20 British Polska and Denmark's Danisco, have been cutting production. Analysts say
some European companies will likely collapse, further tightening supply and driving up prices, which
closed last week at 17 cents a pound. "This time next year, it will be much higher than where we are
today," predicts Michael Overlander, CEO of Sucden, the London-based commodities-brokerage
unit of Groupe Sucres & Denres, a company that handles 20 percent of the world's sugar business.

TEXT l
The Impact of Cultural Diversity on Web Site Design
Introduction
Close your eyes. Envision a succulent two-inch slab of dripping-rare prime rib. Is your
stomach rumbling, your appetite peaked, or are you offended since your fundamental belief system
precludes harming animals? A single image or idea can create many different feelings or
interpretations. Consider the diversity within your own organization, campus, or community. Does
everyone agree on what is appropriate, acceptable, appetizing, or attractive? An image pleasing to one
group of people may alienate or even seriously offend many others. Something as simple as color
may elicit dramatically different' mental images. For example, in the U.S., white is generally
associated with purity, but in Japan it represents death (Chau et a/, 2002).
Herein lies the danger inherent in cross-cultural Web site design: the audience must be considered.
10 Good designers know that ascertaining the needs and preferences of people who are or will be the users of
a Web site, database, or fishing pole, is critical to success. The apparent simplicity of this task belies
its daunting nature. The complexity of defining user preferences can be appreciated by considering the
vast number of sub-groups composing the global community, each with its unique array of tastes,
preferences, and mores. Failure at this rudimentary level will nullify even the boldest and brightest
design ideas.
15 In 2005, roughly 75% of the Internet population is estimated to be non-English speaking (Marcus,
2003). Nevertheless, language differences are not the real challenge, as spoken language is an easy hurdle
to overcome. No imagination or deep intellectual discovery is necessary for linguistic translations.
Most Web browsers are equipped with multi-lingual support. A more vital and infinitely more delicate
task is to understand the unspoken language of a culture, which is deeply rooted in a system of values,
beliefs, and expectations that ultimately shapes users' preferences.

The Case Against Pay Inversion
Mary, a health care employee, joined the firm 10 years ago and has become a highly skilled.
employee. She has always received high performance evaluations and is viewed as one of the best
employees on the staff. Another member of the department retired, and Mary 's manager went outside for a
replacement. They hired a new employee who had just graduated from a program no better than the one Mary
attended. The new person's job duties were identical to Mary 's, but the new person wasn't as proficient
as Mary, so Mary was asked to train and mentor her. Nonetheless, this new employee was offered a salary
10% higher than Mary's.
This example describes an ever-growing phenomenon, pay inversion. This is different from salary
compression because the less-qualified new hire is making more than a more qualified current employee. 10
In a 2002 study, the Institute of Management and Administration asked Human Resources professionals to
3. The lexl slales lhal

list their top compensation problems ("How to handle," 2002). Salary compression was mentioned most
often (25%), followed by retention and recruiting (18%), hot skills (15%), and offering competitive pay
(15%). Since these last three issues may also be linked to pay inversion, the problem may be greater than the
compression figure (25%) alone suggests.
Although the difference between compression and inversion may be a few hundred dollars, it is not
unreasonable to expect current employees to react much more negatively to pay inversion because they are
going from "earning more" to "earning less" than the less-qualified new hire. Inversion is expected to have a
much greater negative impact on employees than compression because it is likely to be seen as being more
unfair. While employees may be able to shrug off compression, they may have much greate difficulty ignoring
inversion.

A Tell-AH List For Tellers
If you've been a bad boy or girl at your bank job, beware. Your name could soon be posted
on an industry list of bank employees fired for causing financial loss or compromising customer data.
BITS, a Washington-based consortium of 100 big banks, is putting the finishing touches on a
database due to launch next spring. It could contain the names of scores of ex-employees, who
presumably would be 5 banned from working in the industry. Insider-assisted crimes are running
amok, say the banks: They lose an estimated $2.2 billion per year to scams ranging from tellers
pilfering cash to bankers colluding with identity thieves and credit-card hustlers. "This will serve as a
strong deterrent to current employees when they are approached by criminals", says Shirley Inscoe,
senior vice-president for loss management at Wachovia.
10 Workers' rights advocates worry that a blacklist could include former workers who were
falsely accused or never charged. But banks appear to have legal cover. The USA Patriot Act authorizes
federally insured banks to disclose information about former employees involved in nefarious doings
when they apply for jobs at other banks.

1. Apenas a aIleinaliva coiiela esl fundanenlada no lexlo: no desenho de pginas e slios de Inleinel, no se
pode deixai de consideiai as especificidades de cada cuIluia.
2. A coi lianca e o exenpIo dado pIos auloies paia nosliai cono o significado de un eIenenlo pode vaiiai
enlie difeienles sislenas de vaIoies e cienas especficos.
3. A conpIexidade piesenle no desenho de pginas lianscuIluiais esl dada pIos inneios sul-giupos de
usuiios que ln goslos e piefeincias especficas.
4. De acoido con o lexlo, o falo de a naioiia dos usuiios da Inleinel no seien faIanles da Ingua ingIesa e
a necessidade de se pioduziien liadues no so piolIenas. A queslo piincipaI e enlendei que os
usuiios possuen vaIoies e piefeincias excIusivas de cada giupo ou conunidade.
5. O conlexlo no quaI essa paIavia e uliIizada auxiIia na sua conpieenso. LIa e enpiegada en ieIao a una
ieao do eslnago dianle de un pialo de caine sucuIenla e naI passada. Salenos, peIa iefoinuIao
inedialanenle posleiioi, que "iunlIing" esl ieIacionado a apelile, e isso nos Ieva a enlendei essa paIavia
cono sinaI de un significado posilivo, de vonlade de conei.
6. Tanlen nesse caso o conlexlo nos peinile infeiii o significado dessa paIavia. LIa e usada en conliasle
con a ideia de sinpIicidade apaienle.
7. Nesse caso, o conlexlo e a coIocao da paIavia con o veilo "oveicone" nos peinilen infeiii que "huidIe"
significa aIgo a sei supeiado.
8. Apenas a aIleinaliva coiiela esl fundanenlada no lexlo: foi soIicilado que Maiy lieinasse o coIega iecen-
conlialado.
9. O falo de o exenpIo foinecido no incio do lexlo eslai ieIacionado ao seloi de sade no significa que o
fenneno de inveiso de paganenlo seja excIusivo ou piedoninanle nesse seloi.
1O. Apenas a aIleinaliva coiiela apiesenla infoinao fundanenlada no lexlo. O Inslilule of Managenenl
and Adninislialion pulIicou en 2OO2, confoine iefeincia lilIiogifica no lexlo ("Hov lo handIe",
2OO2), un esludo laseado en dados ollidos en enlievislas feilas con piofissionais do seloi de
iecuisos hunanos.
11. Un dos aspeclos que loinan o fenneno de inveiso de paganenlo nais negalivo do que a ieduo de saIiio
e o senlinenlo de injuslia e hosliIidade que pode geiai nos funcioniios de una enpiesa.
12. O conlexlo nos peinile infeiii o lipo de ieIao que e consliuda aliaves dessa paIavia, que opeia cono
conjuno. Tiala-se de una ieIao de conliasle: apesai de lodos os ponlos posilivos que se poden aliiluii
a Maiy en ieIao ao novo coIega, o iecen-conlialado iecelei un saIiio 1O naioi que o deIa.
13. A conposio dessa expiesso veilaI nos peinile anaIisai o significado individuaI de seus
conponenles e infeiii seu significado. "Shiug" iefeie-se ao novinenlo de encoIhei os onlios,
sinaIizando indifeiena. A pailcuIa "off' e geiaInenle uliIizada paia sinaIizai conpIelude de una
ao. Nesse caso, leianos a ideia de "sei lolaInenle indifeienle", que e confiinada peIo conlexlo. Na
ieIao eslaleIecida peIa conjuno "vhiIe", olseivanos o conliasle enlie inveiso de paganenlo
e ieduo de saIiio. Inleipielanos, assin, shiug off cono sinnino de "ignoie" ou desconsideiai.

14. O exenpIo ielonado peIo pionone "lhis" e aqueIe disculido no paigiafo anleiioi: o falo de o novo
enpiegado passai a ganhai un saIiio 1O naioi que o de Maiy.
CPZ! ! Apenas a aIleinaliva coiiela esl fundanenlada no lexlo: o US esl piepaiando una Iisla de
lanciios que foian denilidos de seus enpiegos poi leien causado piejuzo a insliluio lanciia ou
a seus cIienles.
16. Salenos que iepiesenlanles dos lanciios consideian a lase de dados do ITS una Iisla negia que
pode feiii seus diieilos.
17. A faIa da vice-piesidenle de achovia, ShiiIey Inscoe, ieveIa seu apoio a inicialiva do ITS e sua
ceileza de que a Iisla conliiluii paia ieduzii os deIilos peipeliados poi lanciios en associao
con ciininosos.
18. A expiesso "iunning anok" pode sei enlendida, peIo conlexlo, cono "eslai foia de conlioIe". Isso e
coiioloiado peIa nagnilude dos piejuzos que os lancos enfienlan e peIa diveisidade de alos iIcilos
nencionados no lexlo.
19. Conhecinenlos de coeso na Ingua ingIesa e a olseivao do conlexlo no quaI esse pionone e
uliIizado nos peinilen ieconhecei seu iefeienle: 'il' iefeie-se ao lanco de dados que esl sendo

2O. Conhecinenlos de coeso na Ingua ingIesa e a olseivao do conlexlo no quaI esse pionone e
uliIizado lanlen nos peinilen ieconhecei seu iefeienle nas oiaes anleiioies: eIe ielona a
