This study investigated the multifaceted relationship between resilience engineering practices, work motivation factors, health, safety, and environment (HSE) management to achieve employee productivity within a mining company in South Kalimantan, Indonesia. Employing structural equation modelling (SEM) on data from 178 workers, intriguing results are diverged from established research. While resilience engineering practices and work motivation factors significantly enhanced productivity, robust HSE management demonstrated a surprisingly insignificant association. This unexpected finding necessitates a closer examination of the unique context of Indonesian mining culture and HSE implementation practices. Several potential explanations emerge, including ingrained communal responsibility for safety, limited applicability of imported frameworks, prioritisation of immediate needs over long-term safety due to competitive pressures, and possible erosion of trust in bureaucratic systems. These factors highlight the need to consider cultural nuances and industry challenges when designing effective HSE interventions. Moving forward, research and practice must prioritise developing culturally sensitive HSE practices, fostering trust and employee engagement, bridging the gap between formal systems and daily realities, and gathering qualitative data to understand employee perspectives. By addressing these considerations, future interventions can effectively align HSE efforts with employee productivity, contributing to a safer, more productive, culturally relevant work environment for Indonesian miners.

The severe consequences of climate change have left many unanswered questions about the environmental performance of businesses. Appropriate measures must be taken to tackle the problems conquered due to climate change. This study supports exploring the factors needed to get the Employees Environmental Performance (EEP). It includes Green Human Resources (GHR), Green Creativity (GC) and Proactive Environmental Management (PEM). The relationship among the variables was explored in the existing literature. This study aims to test the relationship between GHR and GC. Further, it also examined the mediating role of GC and moderating role of PEM. For this purpose, data were collected from employees of manufacturing companies (automobiles, food processing, chemicals, textiles, machinery and equipment) in India. More specifically, ISO 14001-certified companies were selected. Among the different institutions, 35 are manufacturing in India. Out of 35, 24 companies agreed to conduct a survey in their company. Totally 5376 employees were considered as a population for the study. With 95% confidence interval, 400 samples were selected, and a questionnaire was distributed among them using simple random sampling. 305 (76.25%) cases finalized for further analysis. The collected data analyzed using PLS-SEM with R software. The results highlighted the essential role of GHR practices in the manufacturing industry to enhance EEP since GHR positively influences EEP. Moreover, it was found that GC partially mediates the relationship between GHR and EEP. It indicates the importance of GC’s existence in increasing EEP through GHR. Finally, it was also found that PEM moderates the relationship between GHR and EEP. It suggested the role of pro-environmental management and their active pace in improving EEP. Managerial implications and future scope were discussed in this study.

The rapid development of the manufacturing sector has been causing industrial effluents pollution. The practice of environmental regulation in the emerging economy focused on the externalities impact of industrialization. In conjunction with the issue, this study examines the effect of formal and informal regulation on the industrial effluent act and the firm compliance behavior in Malaysia. This quantitative study uses a survey questionnaire (structured) and involved 42 factories of three industries, namely food and beverages, textiles, and paper in Penang, Kedah, and Perlis. The data were analyzed using non-parametric tests: The Chi-Square, Mann-Whitney, and Spearman’s Rho. This study uses the firm behavior theory as the framework, and our non-parametric analyses showed that the traditional enforcement and fined probability could significantly affect compliance levels. We also find the market, consumer, competitor, and investor pressure positively influence firm compliance. The empirical results suggest effective enforcement of environmental regulation and the role of non-regulation must be empowered as a support mechanism for pollution control.

The potential contribution of the textile sector is not limited to the local economy but it also represents a country’s image in the global market. It carries the initial boom for most emerging nations in their journey towards improved economic growth. The present study employs Quantile on Quantile regression, which is a unique methodology and has the tendency to establish the relationship between variables that are non-linear in nature across various quantile distributions. Moreover, the method stated helps in explaining the asymmetric response in the quantiles of economic growth of the countries studied caused by the quantiles of the textile and clothing industry. The quarterly data ranges from 1990 to 2018, and findings therefrom endorse the presence of a positive relationship between TTC and economic growth in all Asian Countries studied. In addition to this, the direction of the relationships in the quantiles was also evaluated by Granger causality, which revealed the presence of bidirectional causal effects in all countries, excluding Japan, Pakistan and Turkey, where it was found as uni-directional. Lastly, based on the findings, the government and policy making institutions are recommended for the introduction of certain programs thatwill incentivize and provide subsidies to potential investors, thus relaxing the competition for new entrants in the TTC sector.

Potencjalny wkład sektora tekstylnego nie ogranicza się do lokalnej gospodarki, ale reprezentuje również wizerunek kraju na rynku światowym. Niesie to początkowy rozkwit większości krajów wschodzących na ich drodze do lepszego wzrostu gospodarczego. W badaniu zastosowano metodę regresji kwantylowej, która jest unikalną metodologią i ma tendencję do ustalania relacji między zmiennymi o nieliniowym charakterze w różnych rozkładach kwantyli. Podana metoda pomaga ponadto w wyjaśnieniu asymetrycznej odpowiedzi w kwantylach wzrostu gospodarczego badanych krajów spowodowanej przez kwantyle przemysłu tekstylno-odzieżowego. Dane kwartalne obejmują okres 1990-2018, a ustalenia z tych lat potwierdzają istnienie pozytywnego związku między TTC a wzrostem gospodarczym we wszystkich badanych krajach azjatyckich. Oprócz tego, kierunek relacji w kwantylach został również oceniony przez przyczynowość Grangera, która ujawniła obecność dwukierunkowych efektów przyczynowych we wszystkich krajach, z wyjątkiem Japonii, Pakistanu i Turcji, gdzie stwierdzono je jako jednokierunkowe. Na podstawie ustaleń, zaleca się instytucjom rządowym i tworzącym politykę wprowadzenie pewnych programów, które będą motywować i zapewniać dotacje potencjalnym inwestorom, łagodząc w ten sposób konkurencję dla nowych podmiotów w sektorze TTC.
