Description
Summary:The aim of this paper is to investigate the impacts of education levels, genders and age on employees’ internet use in Malaysia during the Movement Control Order (MCO) in Malaysia. An online survey was used to collect primary data from 505 internet users among employees from public and private organizations in Malaysia. Data collected were analysed using SPSS 20.0. The results indicated that gender and education level had a positive impact on employees’ internet usage while age did not have any significant impact on employees’ internet usage. These findings should be useful for policymakers in setting up strategies to promote internet use among employees. Implications of the study are also discussed.
