Abstract

Whistleblowing intent is an individual's intention to report acts of violation or fraud. Despite the implementation of a whistleblowing system in Kudus, the process for reporting violations remains suboptimal. This study examines the determinants of intention for whistleblowing from the perspective of the planned theory of behavior. The theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) can be used to understand and predict whistleblowing intentions The purposive sampling method was used to obtain a sample of 57 OPD employees. The results of this research are that attitude has a positive effect on the intention to whistleblow, behavioral control has no effect on the intention to whistleblow, religiosity has no effect on the intention to whistleblow, and professional commitment influences the intention to carry out whistleblowing. The theory of planned behavior provides a useful framework for understanding and predicting whistleblowing behavior, as well as designing effective interventions to encourage whistleblowing reporting in organizations.
