Employee Engagement (EE) has become a crucial element for the success of any organization. While psychology has conducted extensive research on EE, accounting has yet to give it the attention it deserves. This systematic literature review (SLR) was conducted to explore the linkage between corporate governance (CG) practices and factors that drive employee engagement (EED) in greater detail. The review identified several key factors influencing EED: board composition, audit committees, top leadership expertise, network power, other stakeholders’ supervision, and above-board application. In particular, the study revealed that effective CG practices have positive EE consequences, such as increased staff morale, job satisfaction, and productivity, and decreased employee turnover rates. The study underlined the importance of an employee-centric culture that encourages empowerment and fosters a sense of belonging in achieving maximum business success. It suggests that companies must create a work environment that promotes EE, provides opportunities for growth and development, recognizes employee contributions, and fosters open communication and collaboration. By leveraging these insights, companies can enhance their business operations and achieve maximum success by fostering a culture of EE and empowerment. The study concludes that businesses prioritizing EE as a core value can create a sustainable competitive advantage, increase their reputation, and attract and retain top talent.

The need for strategic alignment within HR management increased managers’ concern about individual behavior and how this behavior was related to the achievement of goals. In public management, effectively managing employees’ performance has been necessary since Weber’s bureaucratic administration. The individual performance appraisal is the right tool to assess employees’ competencies. Thus, we proposed the following research question: Which factors, as pointed out by theory, have the most significant influence on the individual performance appraisal process? The quantitative method was applied to answer this question, developing and testing a scale via EFA and a hypothetical model via SEM-CB. The results indicated a scale with 25 items able to access the main points of the IPA process and a hypothetical model with 7 constructs that indicate the influence on employee engagement. The main finding is the significant influence of feedback on the whole process. The main theoretical contribution was the construction of the MIPAS scale, and the practical contribution was to identify the points where managers should focus on improving the IPA process with their subordinates.

On the morning of the 7th of October, the Hamas organization launched an attack on Israel, causing over 1200 casualties and kidnapping over 250 Israeli citizens. Israeli workers, their families, and the country’s economy were all directly impacted by the war. The effects of the war were vast and created many challenges for the HR departments in various organizations. The HR departments had to respond to these issues with promptness, determination, and thoroughness. I will discuss the functions of HR departments during times of war in this opinion piece. They include eliminating ambiguity and uncertainty; providing managers with the tools they need to handle such circumstances; maintaining resilience and high morale; overseeing volunteer programs; maintaining contact with the reserve forces; providing support to war-affected families; carrying out an effective workforce reduction without jeopardizing the company’s ability to continue operations; and managing workplace tensions.

Small and medium-sized enterprises as the main body of Chinese enterprises should be an important driving force for China's economic development. However, the problems of salary management faced by small and medium-sized enterprises are increasingly hindering their own survival and development. Whether it is standing on the position of the enterprise or the workers, the pay problem is that they are more concerned about the problem, while the remuneration is also an indispensable modern means of competition and incentives. Salary management is not only indispensable content of enterprise human resources, but also the establishment of modern enterprise system, and optimization of the allocation of social resources requirements. Enterprise salary management operation flexibility or not, directly affect the production and operation management, which will affect the long-term development of enterprises. This paper analyzes the problems of salary management in small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), such as unreasonable pay system, lack of forward-looking management system, and so on, and analyzes and discusses their own countermeasures.

In the new century, the traditional model of enterprise human resource management is facing the challenge of the times, improving the human resource management of enterprises, and must innovate the concept of enterprise human resource management. After the 1950s, some economists established the theory of human capital, not only can more effectively explain the problems of modern social economic growth, but also on the enterprise's human resources management contribution to a positive impact. This paper introduces the concept of human capital and human capital investment into enterprise human resource management, which opens up a new perspective for enterprise human resource management. In this paper, we will first define the characteristics of human capital and the main body of human capital investment, and then analyze the meaning of various human resource management behaviors from the perspective of capital investment, estimate their benefits, costs and risks, and finally use scientific means to establish investment decision model and risk control mechanism, to maximize the effectiveness of human resources, so that the management behavior of enterprise's human can bring more revenue for the enterprises, thereby enhancing the competitiveness of enterprises. At present, the scientific operation of human resources is the key to the healthy development of enterprises.

Creating a crop type map is a dominant yet complicated model to produce. This study aims to determine the best model to identify the wheat crop in the Haridwar district, Uttarakhand, India, by presenting a novel approach using machine learning techniques for time series data derived from the Sentinel-2 satellite spanned from mid-November to April. The proposed methodology combines the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI), satellite bands like red, green, blue, and NIR, feature extraction, and classification algorithms to capture crop growth's temporal dynamics effectively. Three models, Random Forest, Convolutional Neural Networks, and Support Vector Machine, were compared to obtain the start of season (SOS). It is validated and evaluated using the performance metrics. Further, Random Forest stood out as the best model statistically and spatially for phenology parameter extraction with the least RMSE value at 19 days. CNN and Random Forest models were used to classify wheat crops by combining SOS, blue, green, red, NIR bands, and NDVI. Random Forest produces a more accurate wheat map with an accuracy of 69% and 0.5 MeanIoU. It was observed that CNN is not able to distinguish between wheat and other crops. The result revealed that incorporating the Sentinel-2 satellite data bearing a high spatial and temporal resolution with supervised machine-learning models and crop phenology metrics can empower the crop type classification process.
