“…The measurement model takes into consideration the relationship between the latent variable and the manifest variables (observed variables). The measurement model is tested by assessing the reliability and validity of the constructs and items in the model (Akanmu et al, 2017). This is to ensure that only construct measures that are valid and reliable are used before assessing the overall nature of the relationship in the model.…”

A considerable amount of literature has concluded that employee relations has always been overlooked in the area of crisis communication. Therefore, the aim of this study is to investigate the antecedents of internal crisis communication (ICC) that include safety culture, supportive environment, social media usage, management commitment and the consequences on the other hand comprising affective commitment, perceived organizational support, and employee crisis perception in the context of high risk industry in Malaysia. Past literature are used to develop a self-administered questionnaire and in-depth interview, was conducted for 277 employees of oil and gas industry while structural equation model (SEM) was employed as the tool of the analysis technique. The results show that safety culture, supportive environment, and management commitment have positive effects on internal crisis communication but with no effect on social media usage. Also, ICC is reported to correlate positively with affective commitment, perceived organizational support, and employee crisis perception. The model is developed on the basis of Situational Crisis Communication Theory and Sense-making Theory as the underpinning theories.

The objective of this research was to develop data collection instruments that allow the identification of relevant quality management practices (QMp) to productivity indicators related to the economic, environmental and social sustainability of the dairy industry. The identification of the variables was carried out, on the one hand, through an exhaustive literature review and, on the other hand, through the suggestions of the academy and industry experts. Subsequently, in the construction and validation of the instruments, the most cited models in the literature about Quality Management (QM) were considered and the content validation by top managers was included. The findings revealed that the most reported QMp in the literature are 32 and that productivity indicators of the dairy industry suggested by the experts were 7 in total. Content validation evinced that vocabulary and structure of the instruments is adequate and understandable. The originality and the value of developed instruments in this study consist in that, unlike the previous ones, they will allow identifying the relevant QMp to specific productivity indicators for the dairy industry context. Additionally, they are easily adaptable to different agro-industries and they will generate inputs for the continuous improvement of companies and the strengthening of their competitive advantages. This makes them a valuable and useful tool for data triangulation, for future empirical research, for practitioners, managers and political decision-makers.

Provision of safe, reliable, and affordable care while improving performance and efficiency remains a challenge in the healthcare sector. This study, therefore, reviews the previous researches on the effect of six sigma and industrial revolution 4.0 technologies (IR 4.0) on sustainability as there is still a paucity of literature on the implementation of the practices in the healthcare sector. Notably, the growing challenges within service organizations have motivated healthcare organizations to upgrade their conventional delivery system to a smart sophisticated systems. Thus, this present study makes an attempt to model these practices as integrated with IR 4.0 technologies into achieving sustainability in the healthcare industry. In order to fill the void of this gap, this study intends to investigate the joint effects of six sigma and IR 4.0 technologies on sustainable performance of healthcare delivery services. The study confirms the future direction of the public health sector that is recently employing new technologies in its service systems. The data shall be collected from the top management employees, the health practitioners who are working and familiar with the services and operations of the organization and are familiar with the smart tools to expedite services for healthcare. This study extends the current literature on IR 4.0 technologies and six-sigma as enablers of economic, environmental and social sustainability. This study shall unfold the significant contribution of operations management practices and how sustainable performance can be enhanced through performance variation and strategic implementation of modern technologies in the healthcare sector.
