The successful implementation of the activities of the higher educational institution, its prestige and quality depend to a significant extent on the qualifications of the academic staff and the skills of knowledge transfer. Freedom of labor is its main foundation. Therefore, the subject of our research in this article is the provision of freedom of work for academic staff. The purpose of the study is to reveal the challenges of ensuring the freedom of work of professors, associate and assistant professors, as well as academic staff as a whole, and ways to solve them. The object of research is the international and Georgian legislation on the regulation of labor relations, its protection. For this purpose, we used the methods of analysis, synthesis and critical evaluation of the implementation of the laws regulating the freedom of labor of academic staff in practice. At the higher educational institutions of Georgia, the practice of signing a labor contract for a specified period of time is established for the contest winners and also then re-announcing the vacant position after the expiration of same contract. On the one hand, such an approach is ineffective in terms of content and on the other hand, it contradicts the requirements of the international and Georgian legislation, because it increases and contributes to the emergence of threats to academic staff, restrictions on their freedom , manipulation, favoritism, nepotism, and corruption. According to Article 12 of the Labor Code of Georgia, the winning staff must sign a lifetime contract. There is no other objective circumstance that justifies the conclusion of a fixed-term employment contract. Accordingly, the requirements of the law on higher education, which concern the holding of periodic re-competitions, contradict the organic law of the labor code, which itself indicates that it must comply with its requirements. Based on all of the above, increasing the effectiveness of the education system, perfecting the personnel system, promoting teaching by qualified teachers for students as much as possible, bring the Georgian educational legislation closer to the best practices of the European education system, it is advisable for higher educational institutions to get rid of restrictions on the freedom of work of academic staff and to comply with the requirements of international and Georgian labor legislation. Key words: System of education, Academic staff, freedom of labor, labor contract, effectiveness of teaching.

The introduction of eco-innovations can bring some results both in terms of environmental impact and in terms of economic and social improvement. Such innovations can be involved in all areas of human activity, among them the business sector has a great potential to get positive effects. There are verity of eco-innovations for obtaining added value in business that stimulate theier activity: increasing productivity and technical capabilities; entering new and developing markets; increasing profitability throughout the value chain; attract investments; advancing and giving effect to standards and regulations, etc. Despite these opportunities, businesses passively follow the path to introduce eco-innovations. This can be caused by the fact that that they do not clearly see the ways of obtaining quick results, and spending without coercion contradicts the goals of making a profit based on ecological considerations. In the article, on the basis of theoretical studies, the factors that allow the introduction of eco-innovations in business are identified. The study of the discussion is generally important considering that it has been a couple of years since Geostat started a large-scale statistical study in this direction, and the results of the assessment of the interviewed Georgian businesses do not indicate the great importance of introducing eco-innovations.

The article examines the current conditions for the transformation of the economy and notes that the role of territorial factors in the development of the national economy, because of the imbalance of the regional development of the country, is increasing. The basis for developing a scientific concept of regional development is to achieve an unambiguous definition of the categories „region“ and „regional economy“. While maintaining the regulatory role of the state in the agricultural sector, even in a market economy, it is possible to maintain and increase the level of competition, and effectively ensure property rights and freedom of choice. In the conditions of a developed market economy, the state, with the help of various economic and financial instruments, provides constant and stable support to agriculture by redistributing income from more efficient to less efficient sectors of the economy. The revival and dynamic development of the country's economy are possible when it is based on highly productive agriculture. Only in this case, the agricultural sector can play the role of a multiplier of socio-economic development both at the level of the whole country and its regions.

In 1991, when Georgia declared its independence and moved from one formation (socialism), from the centralized planning of the national economy, to another formation, capitalist (market) relations, It has become necessary to integrate our national economy into the world economy. Thus our national economy found itself facing some dilemma as we moved from one governance, to another different governance, unknown market relations. We took the first steps in this direction, but in December 1991, illegal groups in the state organized it in an illegal way, the overthrow of the legitimately elected government and the wrong policies pursued by them have led the country to a difficult economic situation. The question arises, what is needed to solve the problems before us? For this, it is necessary to strengthen the interdependencies of the economies of different countries of the modern world economy, to develop integration processes at the macro and micro levels, from closed farms, to the intensive transition to an open economy and the development of the necessary domestic economy. Keywords: Integrating the economy, internationalization of personnel, legal framework, targeted programs, investment conditions, land consolidation, national economy.

Kazakhstan has secured approval from Moscow to use its pipeline infrastructure in order to transport 300,000 tons of oil to Germany in the first quarter of 2023, a state-run company (Kaztransoil) announced on January 13, 2023. Deliveries in January, 2023 amounted to 20,000 tons. Kazakhstan plans to export up to 1.5 million tons to Germany via Russia in 2023, but in the future, the volume could be increased to 7 million tons. As for now, oil transportation through Russia seems more beneficial to Kazakhstan, whereas the so-called Middle Corridor transportation route, which involves shipping oil tankers that would cross the Caspian Sea before unloading crude onto freight transport traveling through Azerbaijan, Georgia and Turkey is still limited in capacity and far costlier than using Russian infrastructure. Besides, the ongoing and frozen conflicts in Caucasus could in future endanger the security of Kazakhstan’s oil supply to the EU countries via South Caucasus.

Workplace mobbing is a highly severe occurrence that costs businesses a lot of money and harms the health of those who are targeted. The study discusses mobbing, one of the contemporary issues that prevent organizations, particularly educational institutions, from developing sustainably. Mobbing is the conduct of group members that could endanger groups and their leaders' ability to maintain an atmosphere of peace and prevent conflicts and crises from arising. The paper offers a definition of the idea, a background on the problem, and an interdisciplinary analysis; basic categorization of mobbing types and manifestations at work; potential financial and social (image-altering) effects of mobbing; theoretical overview of statistical approaches to mobbing at work and analysis of results; methods for early mobbing detection and statistical study of this social phenomenon (bossing, staffing, bullying). The study will assist organizational leaders in identifying the root causes of issues, spotting emerging crisis situations, and swiftly resolving them. Keywords: Mobbing, bullying, violence, Organizational Ethics, aggression, conflict, crisis.

The purpose of the study is to investigate how important quality management control is and whether it affects the reputation of the organization. The research presented in the article is based on various studies and scientific literature. The quality assessment methods, types, measures of customer satisfaction level and the main characteristics that are important for improving the reputation of the organization are discussed. The reviewed studies and literature have clearly shown that the quality of service has a direct impact on the reputation of the organization. Improving product or service quality management approaches and tools helps companies to increase their competitiveness. Constant care to meet customer needs has a positive impact on the company's reputation. The company's existing customers play a big role in attracting new customers, and for this the good reputation of the organization is a decisive factor.Quality control approaches to product manufacturing, whether they serve to produce with fewer defects, efficient delivery, or more, have a major impact on a company's ultimate success. Often, it is precisely in this respect that successful companies become market leaders.Those organizations that constantly monitor the management of service or product quality have a better reputation than others. Keywords: quality, reputation, service, customer, loyalty.

In 2020, the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic caused huge social and economic upheavals around the world, at a time when the global economy has not yet fully recovered from the economic shocks caused by the effects of the 2008-2009 global financial crisis. Existing fundamental structural weaknesses have made the countries of Central Asia particularly vulnerable. The pandemic and the upheavals it caused have been catastrophic: many businesses have closed, global trade has been threatened, transportation and logistics have been disrupted, and more. The article describes the results of post-pandemic economic research, such as: changes in real GDP growth and its impact on economic growth, economic activity, balance of payments, unemployment, and more. analyzed the depth and severity of the problems caused by economic stagnation.

A number of measures are implemented in Georgia from the perspective of waste management. Laws have been developed, including within the framework of harmonization with the European Union. Some practical steps have also taken but challenges still remain. Becoming familiar with EU practices will play a valuable role in overcoming these challenges. In this paper, some of the measures implemented and planned to improve waste management in EU are studied and analyzed. The 8th Environmental Action Program of the European Union has prioritized that by 2050 at the latest, people will live well, taking into account planetary boundaries in a welfare economy. In this kind of world, where nothing is lost, growth is regenerative, achieving climate neutrality across the Union and with significantly reduced inequality. The European experience of waste management shows that it should be developed in coordination with environmental action plans. In addition, activating the involvement of all stakeholders is a daily task to achieve the set goals of waste management. The final part of the paper presents the important aspects of the measures to be taken to increase the efficiency of waste management in the European Union, which will also be useful for overcoming the relevant challenges in Georgia.
