“…Additionally, the associations between lower job security with HSW support, the adequacy of TEI, work environment adequacy, familiarity with OHS duties, and the frequency of exposure to psychosocial risks confirm the impact that job security has on retail employees [35]. More recent studies show that job security correlates positively with safety compliance, participation, and behaviour [80], whereas job insecurity is associated with increased depression and anxiety symptoms [81] and significantly reduces the status of self-reported health [82]. Also, perceived job insecurity correlates negatively with sustainable wellbeing [83].…”

Health, safety, and wellbeing (HSW) have been studied widely in different contexts and are associated with social, organisational, and human sustainability. However, there is limited research about HSW in retail that includes both workers and managers to offer a more holistic and inclusive perspective. To fill this gap, this exploratory and descriptive cross-sectional study employed a 21-item quantitative and 3-item qualitative online survey and engaged a representative sample of 271 workers and 109 managers/owners in Australia. The results showed retailers provide a reasonably adequate technical and social work environment, and workers perceive their job tasks as averagely challenging. Nevertheless, workers still experienced adverse HSW effects frequently, partially attributed to a poor organisational environment. Workers and managers were markedly aligned regarding the current HSW status in Australian retail and agreed that health and safety were not focal areas of their businesses. Worryingly, both groups viewed the unfavourable impacts of work as inescapable, indicating a commonly shared fatalistic perspective that does not align with sustainability practices. Although workers appreciated their employment-related benefits, they also acknowledged that their HSW was not fully supported, presenting unique opportunities for the workplace and policymakers to address such issues and support the economic and social sustainability of retailers.

“…To obtain the overall model fit, the goodness-of-fit (GOF) criterion is used the resulting value of which is 0.555. Because the obtained value is higher than 0.36, the overall model fit is appropriate (Abri et al, 2022; Sarstedt et al, 2021).…”

“…Another important criterion is the overall model fit, which includes two parts: the measurement model and the structure. The goodness-of-fit (GOF) criterion is used to evaluate the overall model fit (Abri et al, 2022; Sarstedt et al, 2021).…”

The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between common rationality (as a factor of convergence of employees and managers), collective decision-making (as one of the important methods of participation), and productivity (as an important indicator of organizational success). Structural equation modeling (SEM) is used to investigate the strength of these relationships. After the distribution of 98 questionnaires among organizational experts we used Smart PLS 2.0 to analyze the data. The results show that the indirect relationship between common rationality and productivity through a mediating variable of collective decision-making is stronger than the direct effect of common rationality on productivity. It means that common rationality as a substantial asset for an organization could be used to improve productivity but if managers want to utilize this asset, they should apply it through another mediator which is collective decision-making. Collective decision-making could facilitate the relationship between common rationality and productivity by creating synergy among employees, reducing biases, increasing decision quality, and reaching the optimal decision.

“…Dissatisfaction about salary may even lead to serious psychological disorders and mental diseases [51,54,55]. Conventional evaluations of salary satisfaction depend mainly on data collected from questionnaire-based surveys that are highly labor-and time-dependent [56,57]. This methodology has several limits that hinder the estimation accuracy from a desired level.…”

“…Facial photos or selfies are the major sources of facial expression data which can be used for assessing spontaneous emotions (facial expressions exposed without awareness of being photographed) [65][66][67] or posed emotions (facial expressions exposed with a conscious intention) [19,44,45]. Self-reported perceptions can unlikely be spontaneous with regard to self-reported perceptions of salary, because the respondent is fully conscious about purpose and consequence when giving a reply [56,68,69]. When emotions are exposed without any clear guidance, they can be characterized to be spontaneous.…”

Salary satisfaction (SS) perception by employees can be affected by psychological impacts from the workplace setting. Landscape attributes of green and blue spaces (GBS) may account for this effect, but relevant evidence is rarely verified. In this study, a total of 56 Chinese industrial parks were chosen as study sites, where employee satisfaction was assessed by rating facial expression scores (happy, sad, and neutral emotions) in photos obtained from social networks (Sina Weibo and Douyin). The structures of the GBSs were characterized remotely by largeness of size, height, and visible ratio of green view (GVI) in a 2 km radius buffer area around the workplace. Street view images from Baidu map were selected for estimating GVI using a pre-trained deep learning model and botanical experts evaluating woody plants’ diversity. The results indicated that SS can be estimated with the maximum likelihood analysis model against the happy score, which ranged within 8.37–18.38 (average: 13.30 ± 2.32) thousand RMB. A regression model indicated SS was lowered by a larger green space area in agreement with a reduced happy score. Further, sad scores in highland areas with tall plants and a strong depression on the happy score was associated with a greater plant diversity. Interesting from this study, the designed apparent size of green space should be considered in green space construction near a workplace to prevent perceptional decline towards SS, while blue space is irrelevant in this relationship. Similarly, the diversity of woody plants should be planned to control its negative impact on the perception of positive emotions, with plant diversity beyond a comfortable level perhaps further decreasing SS.
