—Since, the onset of the COVID-19, leads the fear for the impulsive buying of several instruments / devices / accessories based on the ultraviolent radiation which can help in preventive and / or therapeutic measures in the current pandemic. This leads to the huge cash inflow in this sector but without enough return in term of effectiveness and curability. In this review, peer reviewed papers are reviewed regarding the disinfecting and therapeutic behavior of various techniques, devices and procedures in various spectral wavelength, i.e. infrared, visible and ultraviolent already in use against the microbial, viruses and fungi. This will help the general public and health care professional to optimize their vision for the photo / radiation based devices on the concrete scientific evidence / knowledge rather than on the market’s trend of making ultraviolent radiation as the ultimate solution.

- The study explores the job satisfaction of government school teachers with the objectives to study the factors that affected to the choice of their job satisfaction. The Population of the study involved the government school teachers in Sri Lanka and the target population of the study consisted of teachers in three districts namely Colombo, Gampaha and Kaluthara in Western Province The study was conducted among 450 teachers in three districts, including mainly teachers, principals and sectional heads. A quantitative research approach was used. The study has been divided into ten internal and external factors to determine job satisfaction of teachers in three districts in Western Province Sri Lanka. The data collection was done from the survey and data has been analyzed by using statistical and regression analysis. The study concludes that the teachers in three districts in Western Province Sri Lanka has been significantly satisfied with their jobs. It also found that only few factors have positively influenced job satisfaction, especially, supervisor support, promotion and support from colleagues. On the other hand, the study found that recognition and rewards for work done had a negative impact on job satisfaction of teachers. This study has important implications for Policy makers at the national level. The authors determined that the selected factors, with few exceptions, behaved accordingly to what was expected.

-Sustainability stands as a paramount concern for the global community, transcending individual responsibilities to become a collective imperative. At its core, sustainability hinges on the prudent preservation of available resources, ensuring their longevity by easing wasteful practices and preventing depletion. Within this global context, the education sector in developing countries, particularly higher education, struggles to support sustainability. Notably, numerous Arab universities still employ traditional methods to manage the educational process, encompassing teaching methodologies. Compounded by administrative challenges, these practices have led to an alarming depletion of university resources. In response to this critical issue, the present research rigorously investigates the experiences of Arab universities in navigating the transition to e-learning and integrating electronic tools to enhance the educational process, as a pre-step to digital transformation. A meticulous exploration of the obstacles and challenges confronted by these institutions in this transformative journey is a focal point of this study. Through comprehensive analysis, the research presents a strategic roadmap designed to guide Arab universities toward a nuanced and effective digital transformation. This roadmap, envisioned by the research, holds the potential to significantly contribute to achieving sustainability goals by preserving university resources and, by extension, national resources. By aligning educational practices with modern technological advancements, the research envisions a harmonious integration that addresses immediate challenges and fosters a resilient foundation for sustained educational and national development.

: This study explores the evolving paradigm of worker well-being in the context of industrial and organizational environments. It highlights a shift from traditional occupational health and safety perspectives to a more holistic approach, emphasizing the integration of worker welfare into every aspect of organizational design. The concept of a 'Balanced Life System' is central to this approach, advocating for an equilibrium between career and personal life. This system encompasses various dimensions including mental and physical health, community involvement, personal development, and work-life balance. The research underscores the importance of addressing non-work aspects and promoting preventive health measures to enhance overall employee well-being. It also delves into the strategic implications of this holistic approach, linking employee well-being with organizational productivity, innovation, and sustainability. The study advocates for sustainable organizational design, emphasizing environmental stewardship, social responsibility, and economic viability. It calls for a comprehensive strategy that includes flexible work arrangements, transparent communication, and a culture that aligns with the organization's core values. The role of leadership in fostering this culture and the mutual benefits of a well-supported workforce are also examined. This research provides insights into the practical applications of a balanced life system, aiming to transform philosophical theories into concrete practices for improving worker well-being and organizational success.
