Name | : | High Performance Work System and Employee Commitment: An Empirical Study of Ex-Cadre Employees of Civil Bureaucracy |
Author | : | Arfan Ali ,Bilal Shahid Cheema,Qamar Shahzadi ,Sidra Mubeen |
Abstract | : |
The purpose of this study was to explore perception of Ex-cadre employees of civil bureaucracy regarding relationship of high performance work systems (HPWS) and employee commitment with mediating role of public service motivation (PSM) and moderating impact of role clarity. Data were collected from Ex-cadre employees through cross sectional research design. For thispurpose180civil servants were approached with response rate of 92%.Convenience non-probability sampling technique was used. Data have been analyzed through structural equation modeling by using Smart PLS 3.2.0 software. The results supported the argument that HPWS has a significant impact upon employee commitment directly and indirectly through public service motivation. The interaction of PSM and role clarity was not proved in predicting employee commitment in civil servants. This study followed a cross sectional research design, which does not allow drawing a casual inference. Longitudinal data might provide unique contribution. Social exchange relations were tested form static rather than dynamic perspective, thus longitudinal data might bring different findings. Data from multiple sources might be interesting to explore new insights. Cluster sampling from the various segments can also be area for future avenues. Other potential mediators and moderators can also be tested in future. This study suggests that in order to improve service delivery process policy makers should focus on HPWS which increase the public service motivation and employee commitment of ex-cadre employees. This study has documented the perception of ex-cadre employees of civil bureaucracy, which have received a little attention of researchers in the past. The moderating impact of role clarity has also been tested between the relationship of public service motivation and employee commitment. |

Author | : | Muhammad Abrar,Mohsin Bashir, Naila Nureen,Qamar Shahzadi |
Abstract | : |
Round the globe workplace incivility is considered as devastating issue
and its prevalence is documented across all disciplines. However,
perception of newly graduated nurses in South Asian context has been
ignored at large. This investigation explored perception of newly
graduated nurses about workplace incivility and its consequences on
their professional as well as personal life. Present study was conducted
in the public sector hospitals in Faisalabad, Punjab, Pakistan. Data was
collected through qualitative interviews and ten newly graduated nurses
were approached for in-depth discussion. Thematic analysis was used to
analyze the data. Respondents revealed their experiences of workplace
incivility which they faced during working hours. Patients, patient's
attendants, and doctors were reported as a source of harassment and
incivility by the burses. Newly graduated nurses confirmed that they
faced verbal abuse in morning shifts usually and physical assault in the
night shifts. They also reported depression, work-family conflicts, less
job satisfaction, inefficient work performance, increase turnover
intention, absenteeism and s post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) due
workplace incivility. They also reported that their higher management
never motivated them to report incidents of incivility. Results showed a
vivid picture about growing ratio of incivility towards nurses and this
situation demands prudential measures by hospitals management to
prevent and control the workplace incivility.

Name | : | Impact of Liquidity and Risk on Bank Capital: Empirical Analysis of Commercial Banks |
Author | : | Faisal Abbas,Shahid Iqbal,Dr.Bilal Aziz |
Abstract | : |
The purpose of this study is to explore the influence of bank liquidity and bank risk on bank capital among emerging economies of Asia in post crisis conditions. The data is collected for 379 banks from Bank scope database. The data for this paper includes post crisis period ranging from 2011 to 2016. Linear regression panel-corrected standard errors approach is used to find consistent estimators. The results confirm that liquidity is negatively influencing bank capital in medium size banks while small banks are positively impacted by liquidity. The overall risk has positive effect on bank capital in all banks which is consistent with regulatory hypothesis. The findings also prove that market funding, banks size and real gross domestic product have negative effect on bank capital.
