“…In recent years, academic research into the tools, platforms and cybersecurity issues associated with telework has grown in importance. Some studies focus on the technological requirements, digital tools or communication platforms needed to ensure effective teleworking (Martin et al ., 2022; Ţigan et al ., 2022). Because telework relies heavily on technology and infrastructure, the results of our study demonstrated the need to change the conditions related to the use of technologies, and their positive and significant effect on the use of telework.…”

PurposeAlmost four years after the COVID-19 pandemic, the changes in the labour market and legislation, but also in people's lives, do not stop. At the same time, employees' perceptions regarding the change in the legislative and contractual framework, as well as in the working conditions and the use of telework, also change. Therefore, the aim of the paper is to identify the perceptions of employees regarding the use of telework in the post-pandemic period.Design/methodology/approachThe research was based on a survey carried out on 128 teleworkers in the post-pandemic period. The statistical hypotheses were tested using Kolmogorov–Smirnov and Kruskal–Wallis tests, multiple linear regression and pairwise comparison analysis.FindingsThe results of the study demonstrate that the modification of the legislative and contractual framework and of the working conditions, as well as of the way of using information and communication technology in the post-pandemic era, generates a positive and significant impact on the use of telework by employees. Some of the main advantages valued by teleworkers included the possibility of benefitting from a flexible work schedule and the possibility of reducing transport costs.Originality/valueThe study highlights the need to continuously develop and update labour policies and strategies in line with current and future labour market requirements, considering the implications of telework on the perceptions of employees, so that government organisations and managers who want to protect the rights and interests of teleworkers, aspects of their lives and organise an appropriate work environment manage to do so in order to achieve the expected results.

The aim of this study is to examine the development of the concept of sustainable communication in the business, management and communication literature through bibliometric analysis. Sustainable communication involves strategic, transparent dissemination of information integrating environmental, social, and economic factors, engaging stakeholders, promoting awareness, and emphasizing the interconnectedness of sustainability dimensions. The research problem lies in the absence of a comprehensive bibliometric study on sustainable communication, despite the abundance of studies in field of sustainability and communication. This study will fill this gap in the literature by utilizing the bibliometric analysis method and contributing to the existing literature. The situation underscores the significance of research. In line with this purposes, this study examines 2724 articles on sustainable communication, focusing on applied studies and focusing on the distribution of these articles, co-authorship, co-citation, and co-occurence of the authors who published them. As a result of the bibliometric analysis, it has been determined that the field of sustainable communication has continued to develop over the years and that the concepts of big data within the scope of Industry 4.0, green business, sustainable business, sustainable supply chain management, environmental performance, greenwashing, and the circular economy have come to the fore in recent years. The study’s findings can be beneficial to scholars as they reveal the current performance of authors, documents, as well as the progression of themes.

The issue discussed in this paper is how the financial recommendation system intertwines the individuals’ distrust in the act of investing and the outcome of the incurred damages. This study involving a total of 150 participants was conducted. The purpose of the current research is elucidated by identifying the affected variables and using descriptive statistics and correlation analysis. The survey shows that weakening confidence in investments correlates positively with formulation of a demand for the recommendation service of a financial advisor on the one hand, and with caution and rational thinking on the other, which steer the path to careful and rational investment decisions. An attempt to study mediation was performed using PROCESS Model 4 and it should be noted that financial recommender system advising acceptance mediated the relationship between distrust of quality of investment and cautious decision-making. Significant standardized coefficients gave direct evidence of a cause-effect relationship between a lowered trust in decision-making and the preceding caution, with financial advisement adding up to guidance as a mediator illustrating the significance of its role in decision-making. The trust transfer theory that claims the transfer of trust by individuals is just one of the previous experiences, is possibly a good explanation of the outcomes. Losses due to investments may render investors skeptical, and they eventually transfer trust in these financial market to other sources, such as financial recommender systems. The existing paper gets us to the more complex connection between financial information systems, trust, and the choice in the asset industry which, in turn leads to better understanding of the psychological processes that a person uses while making an investment decision. Furthermore, this article highlights the present practicality that is usually directly tied to the process of adoption and integration of financial technology. The results of this study indicate that it may be possible to reduce drastically the negative effect of drops in the confidence of investments in this case or maybe even eliminate the problem. It is clear that the universality of the financial recommendation system is a good helper in this direction.
