As demand for sustainable products rises across industries, eco-labels effectively communicate a product's sustainability credentials to environmentally aware consumers. This paper aims to highlight the significance of these certifications, particularly OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100, in enhancing company compliance with international standards and appealing to environmentally conscious consumers. A comprehensive analysis was conducted, utilizing various sources, including industry reports, case studies, and online data. The findings emphasize the role of certification in ensuring product safety from harmful substances, promoting transparency in the supply chain, and supporting sustainable practices.

This scientific research aims to analyse in depth the process of training and professional development of staff in the Republic of Moldova, a complex field regulated by the provisions of the Labour Code of the Republic of Moldova. Professional training, including both the process by which an employee obtains a certified qualification and continuous professional training, which contributes to the enrichment of existing professional knowledge, are considered essential aspects in the activity of organizations, considering the demands imposed by the competitive economy. Employers have the responsibility to facilitate technical and professional training of employees, aligned with the specific requirements of workplaces, and plans for continuous professional training are developed within organizations. Within this paper, the main indicators characterizing the process of training and professional development of staff in the Republic of Moldova are analysed. In order to highlight the similarities or differences between these indicators, they are examined by comparing them with data from 2019 and by analysing their evolution between various fields of activity. From a methodological point of view, the research is based on the use of statistical and comparative methods for evaluating the process of staff training in the Republic of Moldova, based on information provided by the National Bureau of Statistics.

The aim of the study is to represent the author’s methodology for assessing the excellence of agriculture, which would be implanted into a single efficiency formula, which involves conceptualization of the assessment of fertility reproduction processes. The authors started from the hypothesis that post-industrial agriculture will be more and more regulated according to the criteria of ecological, not market perfection. The industry will not focus on market efficiency, but the market will adapt to environmental requirements. At the same time, ecological perfection will be determined by the dynamics of soil fertility. The methodology (logic of cognition) was built on the specified hypothesis, according to which the efficiency of modern agriculture should be evaluated by the carbon balance in the production process. Methodologically, this means evaluating the dynamics and overall balance of organic matter (humus) in agriculture.
