This paper addresses a significant research gap by focusing on the impact of green Human Resource Management (HRM) practices on employees' organizational citizenship behavior in the context of the health industry, particularly within an emerging economy like Pakistan. Despite the increasing recognition of the importance of environmental sustainability and corporate social responsibility, there has been a notable dearth of research in this specific domain, especially in regions like Pakistan, which are often overlooked in the existing literature. To bridge this gap, our study employs the well-established Ability, Motivation, and Opportunity (AMO) framework as the theoretical foundation. We aim to investigate both the direct and interactive effects of green HRM practices, including reward systems, training initiatives, employee involvement, and performance management, on employees' organizational citizenship behavior for the environment. To substantiate our hypotheses and gain insights into their managerial implications, we conducted an empirical study employing a comprehensive questionnaire survey methodology. Through rigorous analysis, we utilized a regression model as an econometric technique to validate our research framework. The findings of our study are illuminating. We provide robust evidence of the direct and interactive impacts of these four key GHRM practices on employees' organizational citizenship behavior with a particular focus on their environmental engagement. Notably, our results highlight that green training emerges as a pivotal instrument in fostering employees' voluntary environmental actions. The practical implications of our research are noteworthy. By showcasing the effectiveness of GHRM practices in shaping employees' voluntary behavior, our study offers valuable insights for the development of future policies and practices in organizations. Moreover, our research underscores the broader societal relevance of GHRM practices in contributing to sustainable development, emphasizing their role in influencing employees' organizational citizenship behavior for the environment.

Rural communities are vulnerable to shocks associated with the COVID-19 pandemic. The resilience of these communities depends on their ability to cope with the impacts of such shocks. This study examines the COVID-19 coping strategies of residents of Matatiele and Winnie Madikizela Mandela local municipalities in South Africa. We collected primary data through 11 FGDs and 13 individual interviews. Of the six coping strategies identified, the most cited was resorting to alternative food sources to address food insecurity. Other coping strategies include alternative sources of income; reducing remittance and expenditure; shifting to new activities; and introducing emotional support. The findings reveal that coping strategies entail changes around basic needs such as food and income. To protect these communities against future shocks, strong local institutions working in collaboration will be invaluable in empowering communities to identify and implement alternative livelihoods while building supportive infrastructure.

This research delves deeply into the intricate interplay among technology innovation, green finance, foreign direct investment (FDI), GDP, and their collective impact on the environment. Employing the Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) model over the timeframe spanning 1990 to 2021, the study aims to unveil nuanced insights into the intricate relationships that shape the environmental landscape. The study's findings offer an insightful perspective on the connections between these pivotal variables and their repercussions on environmental metrics. Specifically, the outcomes reveal a negative correlation between technology innovation, green finance, and CO2 emissions, as well as ecological footprints. This suggests a noteworthy linkage between technological advancements and the adoption of sustainable financial mechanisms with reduced carbon emissions and a less burdensome ecological footprint. These trends underline their potential to contribute positively to the well-being of the environment. In contrast, the study uncovers a positive correlation between FDI, GDP, and both CO2 emissions and ecological footprints. This observation underscores the intricate dynamics at play, wherein foreign direct investment and economic growth appear to exert pressures that escalate carbon emissions and environmental impact. This intricate relationship brings into focus the potential trade-offs between advancing economic development and preserving the environment, necessitating a thoughtful equilibrium for sustainable progress. The implications of these revelations hold substantial weight for policymakers and government officials in Pakistan. By illuminating the nuanced interconnections among technology innovation, green finance, FDI, and environmental indicators, this research equips decision-makers with invaluable insights to formulate effective policies.

The Customer loyalty goes beyond mere satisfaction; it embodies a profound commitment to a product's success, rooted in the unwavering belief that opting for a warranty-backed offering is the ultimate choice. This study delves into the intricate dynamics of customer loyalty among battery manufacturers, scrutinizing the impact of product warranty and complaint resolution while considering the mediating role of trust and the moderating influence of brand image. To shed light on this subject, we harnessed data from a robust sample of 410 customers who purchased batteries from outlets in Southern Punjab, Pakistan. Our data collection was accomplished through meticulously crafted questionnaires, employing adopted scales to ensure comprehensive coverage. Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) version 20 and Analysis of Moment Structures (AMOS) software version 20 were our analytical allies, enabling rigorous testing of our research model. Exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis contributed statistical evidence to support our hypotheses. Results unveiled the pivotal roles of product warranty and complaint resolution in predicting customer loyalty, with trust acting as a crucial mediator and brand image as a potential moderator. The positive and significant relationship between product warranty, complaint resolution, and customer loyalty echoes the power of these factors in nurturing lasting customer devotion. Interestingly, the direct influence of brand image on customer loyalty also proved significant, albeit with an unexpected twist. While the overall impact remains positive, the indirect effect appears to wield a counterintuitive negative influence. As our findings come to light, management executives stand to gain invaluable insights into fine-tuning their policies, ensuring a customer-centric approach that fosters unwavering loyalty. Armed with this knowledge, businesses can redesign their management strategies to cultivate deeper connections with their clientele.

The present research paper aims to assess and quantify the downside risk of Euro Area stock markets using the Value at Risk (VaR) methodology over a substantial time frame spanning 26 years. The study employs daily closing price data from the main stock exchanges of Euro Area nations. Using the historical simulation method, VaR estimates are calculated for each country's stock index, providing valuable insights into market performance and risk levels during both normal and crisis periods. The non-parametric nature of the historical simulation approach is favored due to its flexibility in dealing with non-normal distribution data, making it suitable for this analysis. The findings reveal significant variations in downside risk among Euro Area countries. Certain nations consistently exhibit lower VaR estimates, indicating comparatively lower downside volatility and potential losses. These markets may prove attractive to risk-averse investors seeking stability during adverse market conditions. In contrast, some countries consistently demonstrate higher VaR estimates, signaling heightened downside risk, which may offer higher potential returns but may not align with risk-averse investors' preferences. During periods of crisis, certain Euro Area markets display a lower level of downside volatility, showcasing their resilience during turbulent times. This information can guide investors in constructing diversified portfolios that can withstand adverse market conditions. Additionally, policymakers can draw upon these findings to formulate targeted monetary policies to support financial markets during economic uncertainty. Overall, this study contributes valuable insights into downside risk and market performance in Euro Area stock markets, providing investors, policymakers, and financial participants with essential information to make informed decisions and navigate the complexities of global financial markets effectively.
