Design/methodology/approach: The statistical software Smart-PLS was utilized to perform an analysis and extract relevant findings from the data collected from the sample group, which comprised 153 individuals. The results obtained through this process were integral to the successful implementation of the research in practice.

By including such information in their financial statements, these organizations can effectively enhance investor confidence in their operations.
