Authors:Qi Jiang, Fei Wang, Chun Ying, Bin Zhu Pages: 175 - 184 Abstract: Coincidentally, both mandatory corporate social responsibility (CSR) and employer branding (EB) are in a nascent stage in India and their integration can become a competitive advantage. The article draws from the existing status of mandatory CSR in India, performs a review of the extant literature and presents linkage of mandatory CSR and EB systematically. The locus of article lies in the implementation framework of mandatory CSR while keeping employer branding in the driver seat. The findings of the study suggest that mandatory CSR has enforced organisations to invest money on social projects, whereas most of the organisations are still struggling with internal motivation to sustain and steer this investment. Employer branding can become a source of motivation to leverage the investment mandated for CSR and this integration can provide a competitive advantage in the long run. The recommendations made in this study may not be directly useful to the organisations which are voluntarily spending on social and environmental issues.

Authors:Muhammad Abdul Rauf, Muhammad Ashfaq, Rashedul Hasan, Md Abu Manju Pages: 185 - 204 Abstract: Artificial intelligence (AI) is leading a major transformation in employment through advances in disruptive technologies. This paper aims to uncover the state of AI implementation and its impact on employment trends in Germany and the Netherlands. With new types of jobs emerging due to AI, it is pertinent that a deeper analysis of the opportunities, benefits, risks and other related issues raised by this phenomenon are thoughtfully elaborated and explained. The fresh graduates are a major part of the future labour pool/workforce and any company's vital human capital composite. We wanted to know if university graduates believe that AI will take away their jobs or eliminate jobs. A quantitative analysis was carried out based on the data collected from more than 400 German and Dutch participants using a quantitative-structured questionnaire. The findings are important especially in restructuring the workplace in the wake of AI and concerned prospective employees.

Authors:Nahg AbdulMajid Alawi, Khairi Ahmed Masaud Pages: 220 - 233 Abstract: This study aims to examine the environmental sustainability perceptions of corporate managers in the oil and gas industry of Libya and the factors that effect this perception. Primary data was collected via a self-administered survey sent to 274 managerial and executive levels and was analysed using descriptive means and regression. The result shows that managers have high level of environmental sustainability perception. The results also show that only educational level have a positive and significant impact on managers' environmental sustainability perceptions. Limitation of this study is noted including the generalisability of the findings within organisation in Libya. The study has bridged the literature gaps in such that it offers empirical evidence and new insights on the environmental sustainability body of knowledge, which could be used to further improve the environmental sustainability perception in oil and gas companies in Libya. Keywords: environmental sustainability; management perceptions; oil and gas; Libya Citation: International Journal of Environment, Workplace and Employment, Vol. 6, No. 3 (2021) pp. 220 - 233 PubDate: 2021-12-14T23:20:50-05:00 DOI: 10.1504/IJEWE.2021.119688 Issue No:Vol. 6, No. 3 (2021)

Authors:Yasmeen Shamsi Rizvi, Raksha Garg Pages: 234 - 258 Abstract: This paper contributes to the extant literature on green human resource which means deploying human resource strategies for fulfilling the environment management objectives of the organisation. Since studies have found that a strong sustainability culture can support the sustainability initiatives of a company, we have introduced environmental sustainability culture as a mediating variable. We conducted both qualitative and quantitative study to get a deeper understanding of the topic in light of Indian industries. With a sample size of 120 top-level human resource managers working in Indian manufacturing companies, we found that green human resource management strategies had a significant impact on environmental performance. We also found that environmental sustainability culture partially mediated between all the green human resource management strategies and environmental performance. The study, therefore, shows the importance of green human resource management strategies and culture in improving the environmental performance of manufacturing organisations.
