Abstract

Purpose

Human Resources Management (HRM) plays a crucial role in fostering sustainability and operational efficiency in Indian manufacturing firms. This study examines the impact of recruitment, training, and performance appraisal on the adoption of digital circular economy models, identifying gaps in current HRM practices and their impact on firm performance.

Design/methodology/approach

HRM practices significantly impact the adoption of a digital circular economy in Indian manufacturing firms, according to a study involving 256 employees across 17 firms, using structural equation modeling to test hypotheses and provide insights.

Findings

HRM practices in Indian manufacturing firms significantly contribute to the adoption of the digital circular economy, but the influence of compensation, rewards, and employee engagement on circular economy adoption needs to be better aligned with sustainability goals.

Research limitations/implications

The research has limitations in terms of limited sample size and focus on specific HRM practices, which may not fully represent the diverse landscape of Indian manufacturing firms and omit factors such as organizational culture and external environment.

Originality/value

HRM practices are significantly impacting the Indian economy, with a focus on enhancing sustainability and operational efficiency in manufacturing firms.

Abstract

Purpose

Consumers, governments and regulatory agencies are concerned about the social and environmental aspect that pushes firms to move towards the circular economy. The transformation of the existing linear model into a circular model depends on several circular economy practices. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to identify and analyse the critical factors that are responsible for the adoption of circular practices.

Design/methodology/approach

In total, 15 critical factors are identified through the literature review and 12 are finalised with the grey Delphi method. Further, these critical factors are prioritised using the weighted aggregated sum/product assessment (WASPAS) method. A sensitivity analysis is also conducted to test the robustness of the ranking of critical factors obtained from WASPAS.

Findings

The finding of this study show that “top management participation,” “market for recovered products” and “circular economy oriented R&D activities promotion” are the most significant factors for circular practice adoption. These factors need to address on the highest priority by the stakeholders.

Research limitations/implications

This study is beneficial for the managers to formulate their strategies for the adoption of circular practices. The prioritisation of critical factors supports the managers and professionals to optimise their effort and resources to adopt the circular practice.

Originality/value

This study explores and analyses the critical factor for circular economy practice adoption in the supply chain in the context of emerging economies.

Abstract

Introduction: Governance is the management of various actions to improve human capacities and boost the efficiency with which services are delivered to the general public. The study analyses the relationship between two variables: geographic location and desire to switch to an E-governance system. The study also aims to explore the relevance of artificial intelligence (AI) in supporting E-Governance.

Objectives of study: (1) To investigate the notion of e-governance and the many approaches available. (2) To research various government E-Governance initiatives and raise awareness about the difficulties and opportunities facing India’s e-government system. (3) To study the acceptance of E-governance by the public from rural and urban districts.

Methodology: This study will use a descriptive research approach as its research strategy. Primary data was collected to check for the preference for an acceptance rate of E-Governance based on geographic location (URBAN and RURAL). The current investigation is conducted on 200 respondents from Northern India’s selected urban and rural districts.

Finding and implications: The report summarises the significance of e-governing system adoption in India and offers ways to improve the operation of these systems in the future. The results of the test show that both factors are highly significant. The study recommends that future research integrate our search for scientific studies with a search for non-scientific publications, as journal and conference publications may lag behind the most recent breakthroughs in the implications of AI use in public administration.

Abstract

This chapter critically discusses the literature on the subject of circular economy. It defines the circular economy at the outset and advocates its adoption in smart cities. It briefly explains the multiple phases of industrial revolution and the slow and gradual shift from a linear economy which is based on make-use-dispose model to a circular economy which relies on reusing and recycling the products produced in the production cycle. It then critically examines the legal challenges that can be associated with such a system. It draws on the lessons learnt from cities such as Amsterdam which has successfully implemented the system of circular economy. This chapter also delves into the Columbian waste management system to understand the market functioning in the waste management sector which is handled by private enterprises in the country. Moreover, the public–private partnership model in the Chinese city Suzhou is explored, and exciting methods of using this model were found.
