Work-from-home (WFH) has gained popularity over the past years. This study aims to conduct a bibliometric analysis to systematically review and synthesize scholarly literature on the complex interplay between WFH, employee well-being and performance.

The study incorporates analysis of the bibliometric including performance analysis, content analysis and scientific mapping that is applied to 497 Scopus papers. VOSviewer software was used to evaluate the data.

This study posits an imbalance between the count of documents and the citations earned by each author. International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health was regarded as a leading journal with maximum citations and publications. The highest count of publications came from most Asian countries such as India, China, Indonesia and Japan. The investigation indicated that the writers with the maximum citations were predominantly the authors of the majorly cited papers. Further, the text mining through co-occurrence of keyword analysis generated five clusters and cocited references revealed three themes.

The current research might benefit both research groups as well as human resource professionals since it also reveals the research necessity and gaps in the WFH domain.

This research delves into unexplored facets of WFH beyond traditional studies over the past decade by examining remote work arrangements in today’s economy, revealing previously unnoticed dynamics affecting employee well-being and performance. This innovative viewpoint enhances the literature and provides an empirical foundation for strategic organizational decision-making and future study.

This paper aims to complex relationship between management information systems (MIS) and organizational agility, identifying gaps and key themes to guide future research in this domain.

A systematic extraction of 578 relevant articles from the Scopus database was conducted to provide an in-depth bibliometric analysis of the evolving role of MIS in enhancing organizational agility. Data analysis and visualization were performed using R Studio and VOSviewer.

The analysis highlights significant publication trends and identifies leading countries, institutions and journals in MIS and organizational agility research. Collaborative efforts from nations such as the USA, China and the UK, were prominent, focusing on information technology alignment, strategic agility and big data analytics. This study delineates distinct research clusters and future research questions, offering a clear trajectory for ongoing exploration in the field.

To the best of the authors’ knowledge, this study is one of the first to provide a comprehensive bibliometric analysis of the intersection between MIS and organizational agility. It offers valuable insights into research trends and future directions while emphasizing the need for MIS deployment, thereby contributing to a comprehensive understanding of the field.

This chapter examines the significant transformations brought about by the incorporation of service robots in the ever-changing retail industry. In the retail industry, advanced technologies, including artificial intelligence (AI), co-bots, robotics, and automation, are transforming the experiences of customers and employees in response to the surge in human–robot collaboration (HRC) and worldwide investments in innovative projects. The primary goal of the research is to examine the impact of incorporating service robots on employees’ willingness to work in a retail sector that fosters collaboration between humans and robots while improving the performance. The research highlights the key factors influencing employee perspectives and inclinations for collaborating with service robots in retail environments, as determined by an in-depth review of academic research and industrial insights. The results demonstrate the positive influence of service robots on improving HRC, optimising inventory management, and enhancing overall operational efficiency in the retail sector. The conclusion emphasises the need to adopt a holistic approach to successfully use the potential of service robots, with the aim of establishing a retail ecosystem that is both sustainable and harmonious. The presence of service robots in the retail industry has significant implications, offering a competitive advantage. The research results reveal stakeholders’ perspectives on the crucial role of service robots in driving future development and maintaining long-term benefits. This chapter offers a comprehensive review of innovative technology in the retail marketplace, offering significant insights into the transformative potential of service robots.

The perception of a situation or reality determines how one responds and awareness is the first step towards understanding, knowing or recognizing it. The majority of the public and the police may be familiar with the phrase ‘cybercrime’, but all of them are fully informed of the nature and scope of these crimes, as well as of the cybercriminals and cyber victims, which has an impact on how they see these issues. This study's main goal was to examine the perception and awareness of cybercrime among undergraduate youth studying in BBA or BCA courses. In this study, we discovered that young people's responses to cybercrime mostly depend on their perceptions of it and their awareness level. To accomplish the study's objective, a thorough examination of existing literature was undertaken. Primary data of 200 students were collected through Google Forms. Percentile analysis, correlation analysis and t-test are done to test the hypotheses. The results of this study may help college administrators better comprehend the mindset of today's youth as they develop laws and policies aimed at reducing cybercrime among students. The results of this study show that the youngsters surveyed have high levels of awareness and a good perception.

Research suggests that high employee engagement (EE) leads to high performance. The old notion of considering Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) as a mode of corporate philanthropy has now changed to use CSR as a strategic investment for the organization. Thus, the purpose of the present study was to examine how the key dimensions of CSR impact the different dimensions of EE in a sample of employees from selected manufacturing organizations of Delhi NCT region. Data were collected from a sample of 300 employees working at different levels from 15 selected manufacturing organizations of Delhi NCT region. The structural model and the measurement model developed to understand the relationship between three sub-dimensions of employee perception of CSR activities, and the dimensions of EE were examined using AMOS 21. The results supported the proposed hypothesis indicating that positive perception of the employees regarding the three dimensions of CSR, i.e. philanthropic activities, ethical and environmental aspects of the organization does lead to intellectual, social and affective engagement amongst employees. The study results suggest that the organizations should realign their processes to develop a positive perception in employees about its CSR activities to affect the dimensions of EE in a positive way. The study contributes by exploring the linkage between employee perception of the CSR dimensions and dimensions of EE. This study enriches the current literature in the area of EE by highlighting the role played by employee perception of CSR dimensions.
