In today's business environment where the pace of growth has tremendously expanded, logistics has played an important role not only as supporting elements in organizations but has also influenced the performance of organizations tremendously. In relation to the logistics masterplan that has been developed by the Malaysian government, logistics performance is crucial to the support of technology capability that is facilitated with appropriate work ethics. In investigating the issues concerned, this study examined the moderating effect of work ethics on technology capability and logistics performance. Additionally, this study also investigated the importance of technology capability and logistics performance. In relation to the research objectives, proportionate stratified random sampling was used in this study as the logistics industry includes three major industries which are land and rail, airfreight, and sea freight, and to cater across the logistics industry 234 questionnaires were distributed to respondents from the Malaysian logistics organizations, and 133 usable responses, representing a 56.84% response rate, were empirically tested using the structural equation modelling by using SPSS and SmartPLS.
