Abstract: BACKGROUND: With the change of human disease spectrum and the increase of public emergencies, the public’s demand for health services and health is gradually increasing and higher expectations are placed on public health personnel. OBJECTIVE: Research needs to establish a comprehensive system of evaluation indices for accurate assessment of the core competencies of public health personnel, to enhance their core competitiveness, and introduce novel approaches to evaluate talent development in the field of public health. METHODS: The study is based on the CIPP (Context Input Process Product) model and uses literature analysis, semi-structured interviews, and Delphi …methods to construct an evaluation index system for the core competitiveness of public health talent cultivation. The entropy method is used to determine the weight of the model evaluation index. Finally, the improved Artistic Be Colony algorithm (ABC) is used to optimize the BP network, and apply it to evaluate the core competitiveness of public health talent cultivation. RESULTS: The improved BP network achieved the target accuracy within 11 iterations, with the optimal value observed after 16 iterations, producing an MSE (Mean Square Error) value of 10–13. The evaluation of the index system reported a 97% accuracy, and upon application to the university’s public health training programme, nearly 50% of students and teachers achieved core competitiveness quality scores above 90. CONCLUSIONS: The aforementioned method suggests that it can proficiently assess the fundamental competitiveness of training for public health personnel and offer guidance for future development in the domain of public health.

Abstract: BACKGROUND: Servant leadership plays a crucial role in fostering employees’ affective commitment within organizations. However, understanding the underlying mechanism through which servant leadership influences affective commitment is important to provide valuable insights into organizational research and practice. OBJECTIVE: This study aims to examine the mediating and moderating role of work engagement on the relationship between servant leadership and affective commitment in social exchange theory (SET). METHODS: Using the quantitative data via the completion of an online survey derived from employees in Indonesian public health institution, 154 useful data were analyzed using partial least squares structural equation …modelling (PLS-SEM). Additionally, SmartPLS version 3.2 was utilized for testing the proposed hypotheses. RESULTS: The results of the study show that servant leadership has no significant effect on affective commitment, but significant on work engagement. Also, the finding confirmed that work engagement has a significant effect on affective commitment. Furthermore, the empirical findings highlighted that work engagement fully mediates the link between servant leadership and affective commitment. However, regarding the moderation effect, work engagement does not moderate the relationship between servant leadership and affective commitment. CONCLUSION: Servant leadership, rooted in the philosophy of serving others first, is theorized to have a significant impact on work engagement through the lens of SET. Servant leaders, by prioritizing the needs and development of their employees, foster a supportive work environment characterized by trust and empowerment. In return, employees reciprocate by investing more effort and energy into their work, leading to higher levels of work engagement. Show more

Abstract: BACKGROUND: In today’s world, acquiring essential skills is crucial for empowering individuals, particularly children, to handle everyday challenges and tasks in a technologically advanced society. Among these skills, computational thinking (CT) plays a vital role in problem-solving and adapting to the complex and evolving demands of the 21st century. However, it is necessary to explore the role of other thinking skills alongside CT, considering that CT cannot be improved and applied in isolation. OBJECTIVE: This paper aims to address the gap in knowledge regarding the application of systems thinking to CT development and its integration into education settings. …METHODS: Results from two studies, focusing on CT development using educational robotics and maker technologies, form the basis of this paper. The research findings are synthesized and consolidated using the systemic FMA (framework of ideas, methodology, and area of concern) model. RESULTS: The research findings illustrate that utilizing a diverse set of approaches, methods, and tools can improve CT skill development across different educational settings. CONCLUSIONS: The adapted FMA model promotes methodological pluralism and facilitates a critical examination of CT development boundaries, leading to both conceptual and practical changes. This approach enables the recognition of emergent properties, the design of interventions, and the incorporation of multiple perspectives. Show more

Abstract: BACKGROUND: The reconciliation of professional and family life has been growing in importance in recent years, and although progress has been made, there is still much to be done. It is crucial to understand the extent to which the individual’s attachment to the organization contributes to identifying the mechanisms related to work-lifebalance (WLB) and workplace well-being.This study highlights the need for a more in-depth and comprehensive investigation into the determinants of workplace well-being and the development of effective strategies to promote it. OBJECTIVE: Analyze the mediating role of job embeddedness in the relationship between WLB and workplace well-being. …METHODS: Quantitative methodology grounded in a hypothetical-deductive perspective. Data was gathered through the use of well-being, job embeddedness, and WLB as measuring elements.The sample included 243 participants employed in the public and private sectors.This is a cross-sectional study in which data were collected through a questionnaire survey administered to a convenience sample. RESULTS: Well-being in the workplace is positively influenced by WLB and job embeddedness. With the inclusion of the mediating variable in the model, WLB tends to decrease. The indirect effect of job embeddedness on the relationship between WLB and workplace well-being is significant, indicating the existence of partial mediation. CONCLUSIONS: It is important to promote WLB and strengthen the connection between employees and their work roles, because only through this is it possible to promote lasting and sustainable well-being within the context of work as well as a real engagement of workers.

Abstract: BACKGROUND: The study focuses on millennials employees, who are projected to comprise over 75% of the global workforce in the coming decade. Previous studies indicate that millennials, exhibit lower levels of commitment compared to prior generations. Thus, it is important to analyse the effect of a hybrid working system on enhancing the commitment of millennial workers. OBJECTIVE: This study discusses the impact of implementing hybrid work arrangements on organizational commitment through task autonomy, job satisfaction, work-life balance, subjective well-being, and the availability of information technology tools. METHODS: A judgmental sampling with convenience technique has been employed …to reach the targeted respondents. A total of 495 responses were collected for statistical analysis facilitated by the partial least squares structural equation modelling (PLS-SEM) approach. RESULTS: The hybrid working system can encourage millennial commitment if the impact of job satisfaction is seen as significant mediating variables. Although the implementation of the hybrid working system can increase task autonomy, when task autonomy is a mediating variable, it can reduce organizational commitment. However, further investigation isrequired. CONCLUSIONS: The hybrid working system can effectively boost organizational commitment among millennial workers, particularly when job satisfaction is high, as it serves as a critical full mediating variable.

Abstract: BACKGROUND: Existing literature lacks in-depth analyses and identification of barriers to implementing HR practices that affect employee health and well-being, especially during and after the pandemic. Moreover, existing studies primarily focus on large organizations with generic HR contexts. Therefore, this research contributes by evaluating the contextual relationship between barriers to implementing pandemic Human Resource Management (HRM) practices in Indian manufacturing SMEs. OBJECTIVE: The post-pandemic landscape has necessitated a reevaluation of Human Resource (HR) practices, particularly in terms of employee health and well-being while balancing organizational performance goals. This study seeks to identify and evaluate the significant barriers hindering …the implementation of re-designed HR policies, focusing on Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs) in the manufacturing sector in developing countries during and after the pandemic transition. METHODS: The study initially identified ten barriers through a thorough literature review, which was then validated by experts. Subsequently, the interrelationships among these barriers were explored, and their structural hierarchy was established using the Total Interpretive Structural Modelling (TISM) approach. Additionally, a MICMAC (Matriced Impact Croises Multiplication Applique) analysis was performed to assess the driving-dependence power of each barrier. RESULTS: “Manager’s resistance to change” and “employee’s resistance to change” were found to be highly dependent on the other identified barriers. Among these, “lack of skilled managers at affordable costs” and “implementation expenses of new normal HRM practices” emerged as the most critical barriers, with the potential to impact all other barriers in the implementation of re-designed policies. CONCLUSIONS: The study helps owners of manufacturing SMEs and managers to understand the significant barriers to implementing HR policies, particularly in frequent pandemic situations for enhancing employees’ health and well-being while ensuring organizational performance. The planned framework might make it easier for practitioners and decision-makers to comprehend how the various implementation barriers relate to one another. The study’s focus on Indian manufacturing SMEs limits the generalizability of findings to other contexts. Reliance on expert opinions introduces bias, and further validation through empirical research is needed. Show more

Abstract: BACKGROUND: The current challenging time necessitates looking beyond designated, traditional, and role-based sources of leadership and instead looking at a range of more inclusive leadership styles. This is the first endeavor to investigate how a sustainable leadership style drives work engagement by mediating the effects of perceived organizational support and mental health. These factors generate unique pathways yet to be assessed in the literature. OBJECTIVE: Drawing on the conservation of resources theory, our study strives to analyze a sequential mediation framework for employee engagement under the influence of sustainable leadership along with the mediating effects of perceived organizational …support and mental health. METHODS: Data collection was performed during COVID-19 at different times, with an interval of three weeks, from 365 healthcare workers in Pakistan’s private and public sector hospitals. Data analysis was performed using SEM and PROCESS Macro by Hayes. RESULTS: The study reveals that in overcoming challenges like COVID-19, perceived organizational support and a health worker’s mental health play a vital role in explaining the association between sustainable leadership style and work engagement. CONCLUSION: The findings of the current study will inspire the administration of healthcare institutions to invest resources that foster a supportive environment for their workers by employing sustainable leadership practices, reducing the effects of overwork and pressures faced by frontline workers during the COVID-19 pandemic. If healthcare workers are left on their own to tackle the challenges of the pandemic, disengagement, which leads to higher absenteeism and lower productivity, may topple the whole system. Show more

Abstract: BACKGROUND: In the realm of contemporary management, decision-making emerged as a pivotal aspect, particularly within the human resource (HR) domain, profoundly influencing an organization’s culture and efficacy. The integration of high-quality data and artificial intelligence (AI) based automation in the recruitment process became very important in driving data-driven decision-making processes while hiring for any position. OBJECTIVE: This study sought to deeply explore the landscape of AI-based decision-making in the recruitment process while investigating the adoption of AI-enabled data-driven approaches within recruitment practice. Additionally, it aimed to propose a strong and healthy model aimed at significantly enhancing organizational effectiveness. …METHODS: Smart PLS tool stood as the cornerstone of the analytical approach, offering a healthy framework for testing and validating our proposed model. To achieve the objectives, a two-fold approach was employed. Firstly, a comprehensive review of existing literature was conducted, encompassing seminal works and contemporary research on AI in HR and recruitment decision-making. Secondly, a small-scale survey was administered across diverse organizations representing IT and manufacturing industries. The survey focused on evaluating the current trends in AI adoption within the recruitment process and its impacts on decision-making, specifically emphasizing the utilization of assisted intelligence tools for routine activities and reporting upkeep. This dual-method approach provided insights into the practical challenges faced by organizations in adopting end-to-end decision-making automation. RESULTS: The combination of information gathered from a small survey and extensive research showed a common pattern: widespread use of AI tools mainly for routine activities categorized as assisted intelligence, offering partial solutions for the recruitment day-to-day tasks. However, it underscored the growing necessity for automation intelligence that encompasses holistic end-to-end decision-making processes in recruitment practice. The utilization of the tool Smart-PLS for analyzing the data from the small-scale survey of 50 respondents further enhanced the depth and reliability of the findings. For declaring the model’s fitness, the Smart PLS tool was used by providing various indicators and techniques, such as goodness-of-fit measures and bootstrapping procedures, to ensure the accuracy and reliability of the model. CONCLUSIONS: In the evolving landscape of increased automation, striking a balance between AI-driven decision-making in recruitment and human intervention holds paramount importance, especially in decisions affecting employees. The utilization of the Smart PLS tool not only enhanced the credibility of our findings but also underscored our commitment to employing state-of-the-art methodologies in advancing knowledge within our field. This study advocates for the adoption of an AI-enabled data-driven approach, emphasizing its potential to optimize recruitment practice and strengthen organizational effectiveness. Show more

Abstract: BACKGROUND: The careful management of health data is crucial due to its immense value and high sensitivity. Blockchain technologies can manage data in a trustworthy way. OBJECTIVE: The central aim is to identify the current state of blockchain technologies applied to Electronic Health Records (EHR) to identify common structures and functionalities. This common ground could be the starting point for defining clear global standards. METHODS: A systematic literature review is used. RESULTS: The benefits of enhancing the digitalization and cross-institutional accessibility of health data are undoubted. Four main application areas of blockchain for the …EHR can be identified: storing, sharing, audit logging, and managing the identity of data accessors. Since on-chain transactions are slow and inefficient, most research promotes a hybrid approach for handling transactions as a combination of off-chain and on-chain approaches. CONCLUSIONS: Several approaches, frameworks, and models exist for applying blockchain technologies in the context of EHR. The research revealed that a) only a few concepts are already implemented, b) the existing system implementations are based on different backgrounds and technology stacks, and c) a lack of comprehensive and global standards and norms. All these factors are barriers to a broader usage of blockchain-based EHRs. Show more
