Petrochemical Companies

The aim of this study is to define and design organizational learning model among the country’s National Petrochemical Company employees. According to the design and explanation of organizational learning model in the Petrochemical Company, we first study the subject by using library studies, theoretical foundations and variable components. Then we designed a new questionnaire through interviews, to examine the views of the population on the basis of the local culture. Then, the questionnaire distributed among the population with using the software SPSS by exploratory factors analysis to identify factors and sub-factors is confirmed by confirmatory factor analysis and structural factors. Finally, management experts assessed the model from different dimensions. Statistical Society of managers and staff of petrochemical, informants and elites of organizational learning of petrochemical such as university professors, researchers and those who have information from process of petrochemical organization will be selected. We will use Random sampling methods to test the quantitative and qualitative targeted selection for testing qualitative part to complete theories. The mixed method will be used in this research. For analysis of data resulted from interviews, the theory-based method will be used. This theory-based method is not theory but it is used for discover sleeping data in theory. So, the theories appear slowly in a gradual process of abstraction of the data and after obtaining qualitative information from the raw data, we will analysis them by quantitative methods and suitable test.

It seems that paying attention to social responsibility by companies can lead to a better stakeholder’s view toward the company, thereby increasing their loyalty and trust. Having the ability to obtain more financial resources in times of crisis, due to the greater loyalty of investors, will result in reducing the company risk. In contrast, being overconfident about the loyalty of individuals to the company can lead to keeping a short-term debt structure, thereby increasing the risk of obtaining financial resources. Recently, the negative impacts of petrochemical companies on the environment have made social and environmental groups focus more on this industry, and this focus has pushed companies into involving in more social activities. Considering the potential impact of CSR on the company’s risk, this study examines the relationship between corporate social responsibility and value at risk in petrochemical industry using a sample of 27 companies listed on the Tehran Stock Exchange during the 2010-2017 period. Eviews 10 is used for computing and analyzing the data, and the generalized auto regressive conditional heteroskedasticity (GARCH) model is employed to estimate value at risk. The results indicate a negative and statistically significant relationship between corporate social responsibilities and company value at risk. <strong> </strong>  

Financial performance evaluation emerged as the great academia and business concern in the competitive world, today.

In order to achieve the research objectives, experts and engineers of 12 companies in the Persian Gulf petrochemical industry have been surveyed by sampling method, in which 180 questionnaires have been completed and the basis of the work has been used. By the confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) divergent validity of all desired factors as well as correspondent of the questionnaire were approved. To meet the research goals, non-parametric analysis demonstrated the main hypothesis of the study regarding the effectiveness of all under investigation parameters.

Protecting shareholders’ rights today is considered a practical competitive function at the level of capital markets, which is based on transparent and coherent actions within the framework of laws and regulations. In other words, the more the level of company operations is based on regulatory and legal procedures, the more level of protection of shareholders’ interests can be expected to be observed more uniformly by companies. This study aims to design a forensic accounting model focusing on protecting shareholders’ rights of petrochemical companies. The collection tool based on the analytical nature of the research consisted of two parts: evaluation checklist and matrix checklists. In fact, in order to promote the level of innovation in the relationship between forensic processes and quantitative accounting to collect data for the development of the forensic accounting model, through meta-synthesis and Delphi analysis, the components and propositions of forensic accounting were determined in the qualitative section, focusing on the protection of shareholders’ rights; then based on the matrix checklist, the most influential research propositions were determined through the analysis of fuzzy networks. The research results in the qualitative part indicate the existence of three components of structural mechanisms; it was the meta-structural and legalization of forensic accounting to protect shareholders’ rights, which was approved in the form of 18 statements. Further, the results in the quantitative part concerning the analysis of fuzzy networks were identified. The most effective component of forensic accounting in the protection of shareholders’ rights was structural mechanisms, and the most influential statements of forensic accounting in the protection of
